Genome-wide association studies to detect new resistance alleles for apple scab and fire blight
Résumé
Malus domestica is one of the world's most heavily treated cultivated species. The varieties that dominate world production are susceptible to multiple pathogens, including fungi such as Venturia inaequalis and bacteria such as Erwinia amylovora. V. inaequalis is the agent responsible for apple scab and E. amylovora is the agent responsible for fire blight. Both diseases can lead to significant yield losses. To reduce the use of phytosanitary products, it seems necessary to create new varieties resistant to various bioaggressors. The use of association studies should provide solutions.
