Summary: The specific objectives of this study were to: 1) Refine the marker-locus-trait (MLT) associations already determined for PFRF, bacterial canker and powdery mildew incidence. 2) Obtain phenotypic data on cracking incidence and pitting susceptibility and establish MLT associations using genotypic data developed in both RosBREED and the Stem-less cherry projects. Utilize the 'Selah' x 'Cowiche' population for specific trait phenotyping.
