Nutritional quality evaluation and genetic diversity analysis of walnut nuts in Jiacha, Tibet
Walnut (Juglans regia L.) trees have been seed-propagated for over a thousand years in Tibet, thriving under variable climatic conditions at altitudes exceeding 3,000 m. This study conducted a comprehensive evaluation of the nutritional quality of 175 walnuts, identifying the highest-performing accessions. Additionally, 20 simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci were employed to assess the extent of genetic diversity and the genetic relationships among the walnuts. The walnut JC174, JC170, and JC126 were ranked among the top three based on a comprehensive evaluation using principal component analysis. A total of 319 alleles were identified, and seven highly polymorphic loci, including SSR6, were selected for further study. The genetic diversity analysis indicated that the majority of genetic variation in Jiacha walnuts was observed among individuals, leading to the division of the population into two distinct groups. This study provides valuable theoretical insights and practical foundations for the advancement of the walnut industry in the Tibetan region.
期刊介绍:
Scientia Horticulturae is an international journal publishing research related to horticultural crops. Articles in the journal deal with open or protected production of vegetables, fruits, edible fungi and ornamentals under temperate, subtropical and tropical conditions. Papers in related areas (biochemistry, micropropagation, soil science, plant breeding, plant physiology, phytopathology, etc.) are considered, if they contain information of direct significance to horticulture. Papers on the technical aspects of horticulture (engineering, crop processing, storage, transport etc.) are accepted for publication only if they relate directly to the living product. In the case of plantation crops, those yielding a product that may be used fresh (e.g. tropical vegetables, citrus, bananas, and other fruits) will be considered, while those papers describing the processing of the product (e.g. rubber, tobacco, and quinine) will not. The scope of the journal includes all horticultural crops but does not include speciality crops such as, medicinal crops or forestry crops, such as bamboo. Basic molecular studies without any direct application in horticulture will not be considered for this journal.
