CucCAP scientists uncover QTL associated with sulfur tolerance in melon, facilitating disease control options
CucCAP researchers identified a major QTL associated with sulfur tolerance in a melon mapping population. Genetic markers were developed for the major QTL and can be used to incorporate sulfur tolerance in melon breeding programs.
