"The flavour chemistry of strawberries is really interesting. We have a good genetic profile of all of the varieties in our breeding program - and there is potential for strawberries to differentiate in the same way as apples."
The team will be exploring texture, taste and aroma - and hope to develop genetic markers that will allow breeders to predict flavour in future varieties. Prof Smyth's team does not use gene editing - a powerful technique which allows researchers to create fruit with traits that would otherwise take decades using traditional breeding methods.Genetic techniques could bring new varieties of strawberries to marketwith enhanced flavour, nutritional content, and resistance to environmental stressors such as drought or disease.
Although some gene edited products are already available elsewhere in the world, there are as yet no gene-edited crops authorised for sale as food in the UK - but this may be set to change.was passed, legalising genetic editing in England. The hope is that this will help farmers grow crops which are more suited to our changing climate, while reducing the need for fertilisers and pesticides..
