2012 journal article

A physical map of the Chinese chestnut (Castanea mollissima) genome and its integration with the genetic map

TREE GENETICS & GENOMES, 9(2), 525–537.

By: G. Fang*, B. Blackmon*, M. Staton *, C. Nelson *, T. Kubisiak*, B. Olukolu n, D. Henry*, T. Zhebentyayeva * ...

author keywords: Castanea spp.; Chestnut; BAC library; HICF fingerprinting; Physical map; Comparative genomics; Chestnut blight resistance
TL;DR: Integration of the dense Chinese chestnut genetic map with the physical map was achieved via high-throughput hybridization using overgo probes derived from sequence-based genetic markers. (via Semantic Scholar)

2012 journal article

A transcriptome-based genetic map of Chinese chestnut (Castanea mollissima) and identification of regions of segmental homology with peach (Prunus persica)

Tree Genetics & Genomes, 9(2), 557–571.

By: T. Kubisiak*, C. Nelson *, M. Staton *, T. Zhebentyayeva *, C. Smith n, B. Olukolu*, G. Fang*, F. Hebard* ...

author keywords: Fagaceae; Castanea spp.; Chestnut; Genetic map; Comparative genomics; Disease resistance
TL;DR: A highly informative genetic map was constructed to extend genomic studies in the Fagaceae and to aid the introgression of Chinese chestnut blight resistance genes into American chestnut. (via Semantic Scholar)

2009 journal article

Comparison of the transcriptomes of American chestnut (Castanea dentata) and Chinese chestnut (Castanea mollissima) in response to the chestnut blight infection

BMC PLANT BIOLOGY, 9.

By: A. Barakat*, D. DiLoreto*, Y. Zhang *, C. Smith n, K. Baier*, W. Powell *, N. Wheeler n, R. Sederoff n, J. Carlson *

MeSH headings : Ascomycota; DNA, Complementary / genetics; Expressed Sequence Tags; Fagaceae / genetics; Fagaceae / microbiology; Gene Expression Profiling; Gene Expression Regulation, Plant; Gene Library; Genes, Plant; Genomics; Plant Diseases / genetics; RNA, Plant / genetics; Sequence Analysis, DNA
TL;DR: This study sequenced the transcriptome from fungal infected and healthy stem tissues collected from blight-sensitive American chestnut and blight-resistant Chinese chestnut trees using ultra high throughput pyrosequencing to identify genes involved in resistance to Cryphonectria parasitica, resulting in the identification of a large set of cDNA unigenes.

Role of genomics in the potential restoration of the American chestnut

TREE GENETICS & GENOMES, 5(1), 181–187.

By: N. Wheeler n & R. Sederoff n

author keywords: Genomics; Chestnut; Restoration
TL;DR: A strategy of map-based cloning, association genetics, and genetic engineering, combined with traditional and marker-assisted backcross breeding is proposed for the long-term genetic restoration of this iconic tree species. (via Semantic Scholar)
