• Gradient of vernalization requirement in carrot cultivars from diverse geographical origins 

      Wohlfeiler Altavilla, Josefina; Alessandro, Maria Soledad; Cavagnaro, Pablo; Galmarini, Claudio Romulo (Wiley, 2021-04)
      On the bases of their vernalization requirement (VR) for flowering, a genetically‐conditioned trait, carrots are typically classified as annuals and biennials. A previous study using F2 populations derived from crosses ...
    • Inheritance of Vernalization Requirement in Carrot 

      Alessandro, Maria Soledad; Galmarini, Claudio Romulo (American Society for Horticultural Science, 2007-07)
      Carrot (Daucus carota L.) is a cool-season vegetable normally classified as a biennial or winter annual species, requiring vernalization to induce flowering. Nevertheless, some cultivars adapted to warmer climates require ...
    • Molecular mapping of vernalization requirement and fertility restoration genes in carrot 

      Alessandro, Maria Soledad; Galmarini, Claudio Romulo; Iorizzo, Massimo; Simon, Philipp W. (2013-02)
      Carrot (Daucus carota L.) is a cool-season vegetable normally classified as a biennial species, requiring vernalization to induce flowering. Nevertheless, some cultivars adapted to warmer climates require less vernalization ...
    • Multiallelic digenic control of vernalization requirement in carrot (Daucus carota L.) 

      Wohlfeiler Altavilla, Josefina; Alessandro, Maria Soledad; Cavagnaro, Pablo; Galmarini, Claudio Romulo (Springer, 2019-02)
      Carrots are typically classified as annual or biennial, depending on their vernalization requirement for flowering, a trait that is genetically-conditioned. Wild carrots are predominantly annual, requiring less hours of ...
    • Vernalization Requirement, but Not Post-Vernalization Day Length, Conditions Flowering in Carrot (Daucus carota L.) 

      Wohlfeiler Altavilla, Josefina; Alessandro, Maria Soledad; Morales Sanfurgo, Hugo Andres; Cavagnaro, Pablo; Galmarini, Claudio Romulo (MDPI, 2022-04)
      Carrots require a certain number of cold hours to become vernalized and proceed to the reproductive stage, and this phenomenon is genotype-dependent. Annual carrots require less cold than biennials to flower; however, ...
