Three scab-resistant apples resulting from conventional breeding at the University of Bologna in Italy. I got them yesterday from prof. Stefano Tartarini at a workshop on NBTs (New Breeding Techniques, also called TEA in Italy, meaning Assisted Evolution Techniques). I filled out the evaluation questionnaire on the red, the pink, and the rusty apple. The last question is: would you buy it if it was a TEA fruit? A big yes from me! (My favorite is the rusty one).
