赤霞珠是品丽珠和长相思的杂交后代,也是世界上最受欢迎的酿酒品种。专家认为,赤霞珠的起源最早可追溯到18世纪。最近,科学家们利用复杂的软件对其进行了基因测序。参与该研究的加州大学(戴维斯)葡萄遗传学专家Dario Cant说:“项目揭示了赤霞珠与其他酿酒品种之间的差别,这有助于帮助育种者将优良特性融入到新的葡萄品种中。”该软件称为FALCON-unzip,是太平洋生物科学公司(Pacific Biosciences)结合新的DNA测序技术开发的。
Cabernet Sauvignon is a cross between Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc, and is also the most popular wine variety in the world. Experts believe that the origins of Cabernet Sauvignon can be traced back to the 18th century. Recently, scientists used sophisticated software to genetically sequence them. Dario Cant, a genetics expert at the University of California, Davis, who participated in the study, said: “The project” reveals the differences between Cabernet Sauvignon and other wine-producing varieties that help breeders incorporate good features into new Grape Varieties. "The software, called FALCON-unzip, was developed by Pacific Biosciences in conjunction with a new DNA sequencing technology.
