Transcriptional profile of AvrRpt2 EA -mediated resistance and susceptibility response to Erwinia amylovora in apple

Abstract Most of the commercial apple cultivars are highly susceptible to fire blight, which is the most devastating bacterial disease affecting pome fruits. Resistance to fire blight is described especially in wild Malus accessions such as M. × robusta 5 (Mr5), but the molecular basis of host resis...
