This paper reviews molecular studies conducted on scab resistance in apple worldwide in the last decade. A detailed description of the DCA-BO and ETH-Zurich's activity, from the identification of molecular markers tightly linked to the Vf gene, their possible use in marker-assisted selection, advances of the map-based gene cloning strategy and the genetic trasformation of susceptible cultivars with the BIBAC technology to identify the resistance gene, is also surveyed.

Abstract
This paper reviews molecular studies conducted on scab resistance in apple worldwide in the last decade. A detailed description of the DCA-BO and ETH-Zurich's activity, from the identification of molecular markers tightly linked to the Vf gene, their possible use in marker-assisted selection, advances of the map-based gene cloning strategy and the genetic trasformation of susceptible cultivars with the BIBAC technology to identify the resistance gene, is also surveyed.
