The Search for New Genes Conferring Durable Disease ResistanceThursday, 30 June 2011 at 14:15 Add to Calendar ▼2011-06-30 14:15:002011-06-30 15:15:00Europe/LondonThe Search for New Genes Conferring Durable Disease ResistanceSELECTBIOenquiries@selectbiosciences.com We have identified the major gene controlling broad-spectrum resistance to a plant virus. In collaboration with Syngenta Seeds, a gene-specific marker is now being used to introgress the resistance in to commercial plant lines. The nature of the resistance indicates that it may be durable. |
