This project explores the development of virus-resistant plum trees, specifically the genetically modified HoneySweet variety, to combat the plum pox virus. The research aims to assess the agronomic efficiency and genetic stability of these trees under various conditions.
Plums are considered as the most commonly grown stone-fruits in Europe and other temperate areas in the world.
However this species is threatened by plum pox virus (PPV).
The development of virus-resistant fruit-trees is considered as a major breakthrough in the successful use of biotechnology.
The genetically modified (GM) HoneySweet Prunus domestica plum is a potential model for studying a perennial GM tree.
HoneySweet is presently deregulated in the USA and this cultivar present a realistic…
