- Mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling components of strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch., 2n=8x=56) fruit quality can be used to provide a better understanding of their genetic control, and to develop marker assisted selection for breeders. For this purpose, a segregating population of 213 individuals of a cross between ‘Capitola’ and CF1116, two genotypes with many contrasting fruit quality traits, was used for genetic mapping. A total of 34 traits involved in fruit quality were evaluated, including developmental and fruit aspect related traits, texture related traits, fruit acidity, sugar and ascorbate concentrations. Amino acid concentrations were quantified using one-dimensional proton NMR spectroscopy. Most of the traits except the amino acid concentrations were evaluated during two successive years. A total of 22 significant QTLs were detected by simple interval mapping (LOD > 3.0) in year 1, four on the female map and 18 on the male map, whereas 17 were detected in year 2, ten on the female map and seven on the male map. Only two QTLs could be detected in both years. When removing the year effect, 22 QTLs were observed, eight on the female and 14 on the male map. The percentages of phenotypic variance explained by each QTL ranged from 6.5% to 16.0%.

- The aim of this study was to determine therapy-related risk factors for the development of melanoma after childhood cancer. Among 4401 3-year survivors of a childhood cancer in eight French and British centres and 25 120 patients younger than 20 years old at first malignant neoplasm (FMN) extracted from the Nordic Cancer Registries, 16 patients developed a melanoma as a second malignant neoplasm (SMN). A cohort study of the French and British cohorts was performed. In a nested case-control study, the 16 patients who developed a melanoma as a SMN (cases) were matched with 3-5 controls in their respective cohort according to gender, age at the first cancer, the calendar year of occurrence of the first cancer and follow-up. Radiotherapy appeared to increase the risk of melanoma for local doses > 15 Gy, Odds Ratio (OR)= 13 (95% Confidence Interval (CI): 0.94-174). Regarding chemotherapy, we observed an increased OR for both alkylating agents and spindle inhibitors, OR 2.7 (95% CI: 0.5-14). Children treated for a gonadal tumour as a FMN were found to be at a higher risk of melanoma, OR 8.7 (95% CI: 0.9-86). The adjusted OR for the local radiation dose was 1.07 (95% CI: 1.00-1.15). In conclusion, radiotherapy may contribute to an increased risk of melanoma as a SMN, but only at very high doses of low linear energy transfer radiation. Common genetic origins between gonadal tumours and malignant melanomas are likely. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

- A two-way pseudo-testcross strategy, combined with Single Dose Restriction Fragment (SDRF) marker analysis, was used for genetic mapping in the octoploid cultivated strawberry Fragaria x ananassa (2n=8x=56). Based on a 113 full-sib progeny from a cross between the variety Capitola and the clone CF1116, we generated two parental maps using Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) markers. Ninety two percent of the markers (727 out of 789) showed ratios corresponding to simplex markers (the majority being SDRF markers), and 8% (62 out of 789) fitted a multiplex ratio. Linkage maps were first established using SDRF markers in coupling phase. The female map comprised 235 markers distributed among 43 co-segregation groups, giving a map size of 1,604 cM. On the male map, 280 markers were assigned to 43 co-segregation groups, yielding a map size of 1,496 cM. Once the co-segregation groups were established, their association was tested using repulsion-phase markers. In total, taking into account associations representing the same linkage groups, 30 linkage groups were detected on the female side and 28 on the male side. On the female map, 68.3% of the pairwise marker linkages were in coupling versus 31.7% in repulsion phase, and the corresponding figures on the male map were 72.2% and 27.8%, respectively. In addition, both groups linked only in the coupling phase and groups linked in the repulsion phase were characterized. The observations suggest that the meiotic behavior of the F. x ananassa genome is neither fully disomic nor fully polysomic, but rather mixed. The genome may not be as completely diploidized as previously assumed.

- Colletotrichum acutatum is responsible for strawberry anthracnose, one of the main disease of cultivated strawberry in the south-western area of France (60% of the French production). Anthracnose is a polycyclic disease for which no efficient disease control method has been developed. Therefore, the development of cultivars with sustainable resistance, i.e. efficient against the two pathogenicity groups, may be promising to lower both the level of damage and the use of chemicals. The objective of this study is to identify molecular markers linked to the major dominant gene conferring resistance to pathogenicity group 2 by using an approach of Bulk Segregant Analysis (BSA) and Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphisin (AFLP) markers. We identified four molecular markers, named mf1 to mf4, linked to the resistance gene to the pathogenicity group 2 of C. acutatum. Within a segregating population (back cross type) for the dominant gene, no recombination between the resistance allele and the marker mf3 was detected in 78 BC1 individuals studied. One Sequence Characterized Amplified Region (SCAR) obtained from mf4 (SCAR-mf4) provided a fast and easy test for selection of anthracnose resistant plants at early stage, with a misidentification rate of 1.3%. The evaluation of this SCAR marker in few strawberry varieties showed that only some resistant varieties possessed this marker.
