transcriptional orientation, like in all of the other S -haplotypes of Prunus that have been investigated to date except for the S 2 -haplotype of P. armeniaca ( Fig. 3 ; Ikeda et al., 2005 ; Romero et al., 2004 ; Tao et al., 2007 ; Ushijima et al

‘Goshen Gold’ is the most recent apricot ( Prunus armeniaca L.) developed by the Agricultural Research Service Prunus breeding program in Parlier, CA. The new cultivar is self-compatible and capable of setting full crops without the presence of

armeniaca L. ( de Vicente et al., 1998 )]. Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) has also been widely used for fingerprinting Prunus species, such as peach ( Warburton and Bliss, 1996 ) and almond ( Bartolozzi et al., 1998 ). More recently, other types

‘Estrella’ and ‘Sublime’ are mid–early ripening apricot cultivars ( Prunus armeniaca L.) with optimal productivity levels, excellent fruit quality, and an attractive color. Although ‘Estrella’ and ‘Sublime’ are both self-incompatible, they are

subgenera of Prunus (e.g., Rehder, 1940 ). They were shown to be conserved in species of subgenera Amygdalus (L.) Focke [e.g., P. persica , Prunus dulcis (Miller) D.A. Webb], Prunus (e.g., Prunus armeniaca L.), and Cerasus (Miller) Focke (e

grape varieties. In all these cases, embryo rescue has been successfully used to overcome the low viability of these seeds ( Ramming, 1990 ). In Prunus , since the early Tukey experiments ( Tukey, 1933 ), there have been a number of examples of the use

‘Mirlo Blanco’, ‘Mirlo Anaranjado’, and ‘Mirlo Rojo’ are very early-season ripening apricot cultivars ( Prunus armeniaca L.) with high productivity, excellent fruit quality, and an attractive red-blushed fruit for fresh markets. These cultivars are
