Identify apple genes associated with apple replant disease resistance

Author: Yanmin Zhu, Mark Mazzola

Published: 2015

Summary: The objectives of this project were: 1) Select candidate apple genes based on the results of two previous genomic studies. 2) Screen these genes based on their expression behaviors between resistant and susceptible apple rootstocks. 3) Validate gene-trait associations within an expanded germplasm collection of a rootstock breeding population
