Novel metrics to classify fire blight resistance of 94 apple cultivars
2019-06-01
Abstract excerpt
Fire blight (Erwinia amylovora), a potentially devastating disease in apple, can cause floral, fruit and structural damage and even tree death. Most commercial apple cultivars are susceptible and the resistance/susceptibility of many modern cultivars has not been evaluated. Fire blight resistance/susceptibility is difficult to phenotype due to quantitative resistance, impacts of tree vigour and environment on susc...
