Cooperations

Prof. Dr. Viola Hanke and Dr. Henryk Flachowsky from the Federal Centre for Breeding Research on Cultivated Plants (Dresden-Pillnitz) produced and cultivate the transgenic apple trees. In co-operation with Dr. Andreas Peil, they gave permission to collect wild-type apple roots from the conventionally managed orchard.

Harald Rank from the Saxon State Institute for Agriculture gave the permission to collect wild-type apple roots from an organically managed orchard.
