The Plant Genetics Resources Unit (PGRU) in Geneva, NY houses over 4,000 apple accessions that represent over 90% of the known genetic diversity of Malus spp. worldwide. Included in a core collection of about 195 accessions are numerous cultivars of the domestic apple, M. x domestica, as well as it's parent species Malus sieversii. Selected accessions from this core collection, as well as numerous accessions of Malus sieversii recently collected from Kazakhstan, are being screened and tested for potential resistance to major apple pests, including plum curculio, codling moth, oriental fruit moth, and apple maggot.

I saw this study.My project(thesis) is "Determining of the damage severity of Codling moth ( Cydia pomonella, Lep.: Torthricidae ) on 30 different apple cultivars"
Would you question(exuse me bad english)
Are there resistance different apple cultivar against Codling moth literature ? Thank you very much
