Approximately 6,000 peach SNPs were selected at UC Davis for two breeding populations: Pop DF ('Dr. Davis' × 'F8, 1-42') and Pop DG ('Dr. Davis' × 'Georgia Belle'). These SNPs are now available for viewing in GBrowse as well as an Excel spreadsheet available on the peach genome project page<http://www.rosaceae.org/node/355>.

The Malus x domestica genome v1.0 pseudo haplotype assemblies are a set of four different assemblies (primary and alternates 1, 2 and 3) derived from the contigs of the original v1.0 assembly. These pseudo haplotypes are intended to divde overlapping contigs in the original assembly into four different consensus sequences representing the four different haplotypes present in the apple genome. However, these assemblies are not true haplotypes, hence the name "pseudo haplotypes". Currently, only the primary pseudo haplotype assembly is available on GDR. Gaps of 200,000 N's were used to space scaffolds in the assembly. These pseudo haplotype assembles were constructed at the Instituo<http://www.iasma.it/> <http://www.iasma.it/> Agrario Di San Michelle <http://www.iasma.it/> All'Adige in collaboration with the NCBI<http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.go/>.

Dear Rosaceae Community,
I would like to invite you to a community discussion in San Diego sponsored
by RosBREED. The goal of this discussion is to present an update on the
informativeness of the 8K apple, 9K peach, and 6K cherry Illumina Infiinium
SNP arrays and progress toward the development of a strawberry SNP array.
The meeting is at 3:30 PST, Friday, January 13th, 2012 in the Courtyard
Marriott San Diego Mission Valley (595 Hotel Circle South, San Diego)
Inspire Ballroom. (Also see attached announcement.)
We look forward to your joining us. Best wishes for a wonderful holiday
season.
Sincerely, Amy

RosEXEC Membership 2012 Ballot Announcement
Five US RosEXEC committee members are rotating off the Committee this year:
Angela Baldo, Nahla Bassil, Jim Hancock, Bryon Sosinski and Phil Stewart
Two international liaisons are rotating off: David Chagne and Herman Silva
To replace these members, you are voting to elect five new U.S.-based members to serve 3 year terms and two international liaisons to serve 2 year terms on the RosEXEC committee. All US community members are eligible to vote. International members are eligible to vote for international liaisons.
A brief bio and vision statement has been prepared by all candidates and is available at Candidate Bios<http://www.rosaceae.org/node/472>.
Because the 2 continuing international liaisons are from Europe, to preserve a balance between European and non-European representation, the non-European candidate receiving the most votes and the remaining candidate with the most votes will be elected as international liaisons.
There are a total of 16 elected U.S. members on RosEXEC, and we try to represent the diverse interests of the Rosaceae genomics, genetics, and breeding community. To preserve a balance between US members representing industry, academia and government representation, the industry candidate receiving the most votes and the four remaining candidates with the most votes will be elected as US members. The 11 continuing U.S. RosEXEC committee members are working in the following areas (under represented areas [<20%] are asterisked):
