This presentation provides an overview of the RosBREED project, its mission to develop marker-assisted breeding to enhance the efficiency of rosaceous cultivar release and adoption, and its focus on fruit quality. It also discusses the project's target outcomes, management structure, and collaboration with industry stakeholders.

Outline of Presentation • Project Overview • Morning Session • Afternoon Session RosBREED
RosBREED Mission Statement We will develop and apply marker-assisted breeding, based on improved knowledge of industry value and consumer preferences, to accelerate and increase the efficiency of rosaceous cultivar release and successful cultivar adoption Amy Iezzoni, Michigan State Univ. Cameron Peace, Wash. State Univ. 4 yrs $7.2M federal $7.2M matching This project is supported by the Specialty Crop Research Initiative of USDA’s National Institute of Food and Agriculture RosBREED

RosBREED Will Develop Tools For those traits that have value for producers, market intermediaries and consumers $ Marker-assisted breeding in application
RosBREED Will Use Improved Knowledge • of industry values and consumer preferences to select target traits for Marker-Assisted Breeding • Impacts: increase new cultivar adoption • enlarge market potential Courtesy David Byrne, Texas A&M Univ.)
Supporting Breeding Decisions Which traits to target? Which parents to use? Which combinations to create? Which seedlings to progress? Which selections to trial? WA2 Which advanced selections to commercialize?
Supporting Breeding Decisions Which wild germplasm to use? Which traits to target? Which parents & combinations to create? Which seedlings to progress? Which selections to trial? WA2 Which advanced selections to commercialize?
RosBREED’s Target Outcomes Increased gain in fruit quality per breeding cycle due to improved parent selection and improved mean progeny value Long-term outcomes Four year project outcomes Implementation of MAB by breeding programs More rapid availability of new cultivars with genetically superior fruit quality Improved profitability and sustainability of US rosaceous fruit, nut, and floral crops with increased consumption and enjoyment RosBREED

Morning Session Goal = provide information to AP membersto set the stage for receiving advice
Morning Session RosBREED
Major Enabling Deliverables • Enabling computer-based accomplishments that allow us to find, polish and put the Jewels into application • Computer demonstrations at breaks: CholaniWeebadde Jewels in the Genome in eXtension Eric van de Weg Pedigree-Based Analysis software Dorrie Main BIM System
External Evaluation of Extension Efforts • Dr. Michael Coe • Cedar Lake Research Group, LLC
Afternoon Session Goal = receive advice from AP members
Afternoon Session • Group 1: Remain in the ballroom • Group 2: Move to Cortez room RosBREED
Discussion Session What methods or plans of work could be done differently to better meet RosBREED’s current industry and breeding project goals? What unanticipated opportunities, needs and limitations should we address within the current project? Thinking ahead to a second project, how well do our proposed objectives effectively address current and future industry and breeding opportunities, needs and limitations? What modifications would you recommend? RosBREED
Jewels in the Genome Analogy An individual’s genome is the full complement of genetic information that it inherited from its parents. Within this vast repertoire of genetic information, individuals genes are being discovered that control critical production and fruit quality traits. Jewels = valuable genetic discoveries ready for breeding application = marker-locus-trait associations validated in a breeding program Find Polish Put into application in breeding
RosBREED seeks to find, polish and put into application predictive DNA tests for valuable Jewels in the Genome
The Jewels are Linked on Chromosomes 56 chromosomes in strawberry!!
