Resistance to bacterial canker in apricot: dream or reality?

How to provide efficient and sustainable solutions to the economic impact of bacterial canker in apricot orchards?

To answer this question, the Resibac project (2013-2016) financed by the French Ministry in charge of Agriculture has been conducted between GAFL and Plant Pathology research units. The project aimed to characterize the risk factors favoring disease development and to screen genetic backgrounds for their susceptibility. Both are then expected to achieve the deployment of resistant cultivars in the orchard.
