Allele mining of eukaryotic translation initiation factor genes in Prunus for the identification of new sources of resistance to sharka.

Scientists searched for genetic variations in translation initiation factors (eIF4E and eIFiso4E) in stone fruit trees to find alleles associated with resistance to the Plum pox virus (PPV). They identified new alleles in wild species that showed reduced susceptibility to PPV, potentially providing new sources of resistance.
