Genetic mapping and pyramiding of two new pear scab resistance QTLs
2015-10-01
Abstract excerpt
Scab is one of the major fungal diseases infecting pear trees, causing the greatest economic losses. Identifying and pyramiding scab resistance factors should help in breeding new resistant pear cultivars. We have identified and mapped two new pear resistance loci against the fungal pathogen Venturia pirina. The first locus, mapped both as a major gene and as a QTL, is located on linkage group (LG) 01 of the hybri...
