Mapping of fire blight resistance in Malus ×robusta 5 flowers following artificial inoculation
Background Although the most common path of infection for fire blight, a severe bacterial disease on apple, is via host plant flowers, quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for fire blight resistance to date have exclusively been mapped following shoot ...
