The genus \u003ci\u003eDiospyros \u003c\/i\u003econtains about 400 species distributed all continents of the globe. Most of \u003ci\u003eDiospyros \u003c\/i\u003especies are distributed in the tropical and subtropical regions, while cultivated persimmon or simply kaki (\u003ci\u003eDiospyros kaki\u003c\/i\u003e) originates in East Asia and has been grown in China, Japan and Korea for many years. World production of persimmon has been increasing continuously since 1990s, with China being the most producer. Outside Asia, kaki production has been rapidly increasing in Spain in recent years. Because kaki is mostly hexaploid (2n = 6x =90) and its genome size is quite large with the flow cytometric analysis estimation of about 900 Mb, genetic and molecular studies in persimmon are quite complicated. Diploid close relatives of kaki,\u003ci\u003eD. lotus\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eD. oleifera\u003c\/i\u003e have been recently used as model species of kaki. Utilizing these species, molecular basis of several economically molecular basis of important traits such as sexuality and astringency has been studied, giving important information for kaki breeding.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2023-09-04\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783031055867\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-031-05584-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 254cm x178cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 176\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46547658440844,"sku":"9783031055867","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783031055867_87670134-a0a7-421b-aedb-881cb19260f1.jpg?v=1772930110","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783031055867","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
