Geneva PGRU Grapes, Apples, and Tart Cherries:
Present and Future(?)
• Chuck Simon
– PGRU Clonal Collection Geneticist
PGRU Grapes and Apples: The Plan
• “Bar Code” fingerprints of entire clonal collections• Committed to 6-8 SSR loci per collection, with likely
progression up to 20 loci each• Simple spread sheet link for data download• Coordinated effort for grape with French collection in
Montpellier and with Davis collection - with consistent “Standard Variety Reference Fingerprints”
• Promised “entry page” for grape markers not unlike pea genstock site (to the extent ARS allows). (“GrainGenes” is pretty nice)
• Definite movement toward SNP markers in grape
