Ten years of VINQUEST: first insight for breeding new apple
Original language description
Apple scab, caused by Venturia inaequalis, is a major disease worldwide. To control this disease, up to 20–25 fungicide applications may be needed depending on the year and the production system. Breeding for durable scab resistance is an objective of most apple breeding programmes. Cultivation of apple scab-resistant cultivars would reduce the chemical footprint of apple production. One way to achieve durable resistance is to pyramid multiple apple scab resistance genes in a cultivar. Currently, more than 18 different apple scab resistance genes have been reported. Molecular markers are available for most of them and can be used to select seedlings carrying multiple resistance genes. However, one key question remains to be answered: which genes should be chosen to create durable resistance? Unfortunately, very little is known on the presence and geographical distribution of apple scab isolates virulent to specific apple scab resistance genes. In order to fill this knowledge gap, the VINQUEST project (www.vinquest.ch) was initiated in 2009. Ten years after the launch of this initiative, 24 partners from 14 countries are regularly contributing data. Results obtained from the data collected during the first 10 years allowed us to have first insights into which apple scab resistance genes may hold most promise for breeding cultivars with durable resistances. Apple breeders will be able to make informed choices about combining scab resistance genes based on the virulences present in the regional V. inaequalis populations.
