Abstract EN

Venturia inaequalis is the causal agent of apple scab, a devastating disease of apple.

We outline several unique features of this pathogen which are useful for molecular genetics studies intended to understand plant-pathogen interactions.

The pathogenicity mechanisms of the pathogen and overview of apple defense responses, monogenic and polygenic resistance, and their utilization in scab resistance breeding programs are also reviewed.
