Haplotype‐phased ‘Ottawa 3’ genome unravels differential reaction of apple rootstock roots to mixed viral infection

The Plant Journal, Volume 126, Issue 1, April 2026.
SUMMARY Viral diseases pose a significant threat to global apple (Malus spp.) production. While selecting appropriate rootstocks is a crucial strategy to mitigate their effects, the underlying mechanisms governing rootstock tolerance or sensitivity to viral infection at the root level remain underexplored.
