Abstract excerpt
The Pacific crabapple ( Malus fusca ) is a wild relative of the commercial apple ( Malus × domestica ). With a range extending from Alaska to Northern California, M. fusca is extremely hardy and disease resistant. The species represents an untapped genetic resource for development of new apple cultivars with enhanced stress resistance. However, gene discovery and utilization of M. fusca has been hampered by t...
