Mapping Populations and Traits at Project Onset in 2011


The mapping populations selected are expected to segregate for powdery mildew resistance, cold tolerance, and negative fruit quality. The VitisGen Breeding team will maintain these populations throughout the course of the project and provide plant material to the VitisGen Genetics and Trait Evaluation teams. Future crosses to generate improved populations will be based on results derived from the VitisGen Genetics, Trait Evaluation, and Trait Economics teams. Click here for the Excel spreadsheet.
