Abstract

Disease infection is a major limitation to growing apples in Missouri. The common diseases include apple scab, cedar apple rust and powdery mildew. With increasing concerns about pesticides, several breeders have focused on the development of apple cultivars that are resistant to the major diseases. Apple growers who don’t have the time, equipment or desire to apply fungicides may wish to plant disease-resistant varieties.
