Fighting Pests, Disease, and Climate Change: The Role of Biotechnology in European Chestnut Improvement

2025-11-05

Abstract excerpt

European chestnut is an agroforest species of great ecological, economic, and cultural importance in many temperate regions. However, in recent decades, it has been seri-ously threatened by various factors, including devastating diseases such as chestnut blight and ink disease, as well as the impacts of climate change. In this context, bio-technological tools have emerged as a key alternative for the protection, i...
