Use of a transgenic early flowering approach in apple (Malus Ã domestica Borkh.) to introgress fire blight resistance from cultivar Evereste
2012-08-01
Abstract excerpt
The long juvenile phase of Malus spp. has always been a major drawback for the rapid introgression of agronomically relevant traits (e.g. disease resistances) from wild apples into domestic apple cultivars (M. Ã domestica Borkh.). Several agro-technical approaches have been investigated but none was able to reduce the juvenile phase to less than 18 months. Recently, an early flowering transgenic line named T11...
