SUMMARY:Restoration of the American chestnut: A marriage of breeding and biotechnology
DESCRIPTION:The American chestnut is a unique example of a tree species\, decimated by introduced pathogens\, that is on the verge of restoration. For over thirty years\, TACF has been breeding chestnut trees to introduce disease resistance from Chinese chestnut into a genetically diverse population of American chestnut. The major bottleneck has been screening the thousands of trees necessary to identify disease-resistance individuals with American chestnut traits. Dr. Jared Westbrook\, Director of Science with TACF\, will present a public talk at the Washington County Public Library in Abingdon at 7:00 P.M. on Friday\, February 10th to discuss how recent progress in genome sequencing technology is being used to accelerate restoration of this iconic tree. \nSponsored by the Southwest Virginia Restoration Branch of the Virginia Chapter of The American Chestnut Foundation.
