Badenes, M. L., Blanca, J. M., Romero, C. & Zuriaga, E. (2018). Silencing of host ParPMC genes confers resistance to Plum Pox Virus (PPV) in apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.). Póster presented in COST Action IPLANTA CA15223 WG2 Meeting Topical Application of RNAi: Progress and possibilities.Abstract
Plum pox virus (PPV), causing Sharka disease, is one of the main limiting factors for Prunus production worldwide. In apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) the major PPV resistance locus (PPVres), comprising ~ 196 kb, has been mapped to the upper part of linkage group 1. Within the PPVres, 68 genomic variants linked in coupling to PPV
resistance were identified within 23 predicted transcripts according to peach genome annotation.
