  1. Thirty-six putative fire blight resistance genes were genetically mapped on Malus genetic linkage groups (LGs) as simple sequence repeat (SSR) and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers, or physically located within the ‘Golden Delicious’ whole genome sequence (WGS). See Additional file 1: Putative fire blight resistance genes for details of EST and marker description, criteria used for putative fire blight resistance gene selection, genetic and physical location of the markers within LG.
