Ag. Manganaris et al., ISOZYME LOCUS PGM-1 IS TIGHTLY LINKED TO A GENE (V-F) FOR SCAB RESISTANCE IN APPLE, Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 119(6), 1994, pp. 1286-1288
Pgm-1, the gene responsible for variation in the most anodal isozyme o
f phosphoglucomutase in apple (Malus spp.), is shown to lie approximat
e to 8 centiMorgans from the gene V-f which confers apple-scab resista
nce. The proximity of the marker and the ease by which allozymic forms
can be resolved suggest that Pgm-1 will be useful for following the i
nheritance of scab resistance conferred by V-f.
