    Abstract : I äppelodling används ympade träd, det vill säga träd som består av en ädelsort och en grundstam. I svensk kommersiell odling dominerar, enligt samtal med odlare innan arbetets start, grundstammen M9. Det finns dock ingen officiell statistik över vilka grundstammar som används. READ MORE

  3. 2. Evaluation of transgenic rootstocks regarding their effects on the fruit quality in apple

    University essay from SLU/Plant Breeding and Biotechnology (until 121231)

    Author : Faraz Muneer; [2011]
    Keywords : Transgenic rootstocks; rolB gene; apple cultivars; fruit quality;

    Abstract : Plant biotechnology has played an important role in plant breeding for introducing desired characteristics into cultivars. This technique is particular important for improving apple cultivars as it can considerably reduce the breeding time. READ MORE

  4. 3. Transformation of E. coli and Agrobacterium and molecular analysis of transformed apple (Malus domestica) rootstock A2

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Plant Breeding

    Author : Carin Emanuelsson; [2007]
    Keywords : plant biotechnology; transformation; A2; rol C; GA2ox;

    Abstract : This project includes two parts. The first part was transformation of Escherichia coli and Agrobacterium tumefaciens with a vector containing the GA2ox gene. The second part was molecular analyses of the apple (Malus domestica) rootstock A2 transformed with the rolC gene. The rolC and GA2ox genes are two potential genes for dwarfing plants. READ MORE
