Title: Molecular markers linked to resistance to Cryphonectria parasitica in chestnut

Author: Kubisiak, Thomas L.

Date: 1996

Source: Journal of the American Chestnut Foundation. 9 (2): 34-43

Description: Kubisiak describes how he came to work on the chestnut blight problem. He touches on the underlying theory behind recombinational linkage mapping, mentions some current results in work with chestnut, and discusses how these results compare to prior knowledge regarding the suspected pattern of inheritance of blight resistance. Finally, the author looks ahead and suggests where efforts might be focused next.
