  5. Genomic and Molecular Approaches in Breeding:
    The use of genomic tools and molecular techniques in the breeding of fruit crops is gaining momentum, allowing for more precise selection and development of resilient cultivars.

Declining or Waning

While 'Erwerbs-Obstbau' has a robust focus on various aspects of horticultural science, certain themes appear to be declining in prominence based on recent publications. This may reflect shifts in research priorities or changing industry needs.
  1. Traditional Cultivation Methods:
    There has been a noticeable reduction in studies focusing on conventional cultivation practices, possibly due to the increasing emphasis on sustainable and innovative agricultural techniques.
  2. Basic Physiological Studies:
    Research centered around basic physiological processes in fruit trees has seen a decline, as more applied and technology-driven studies gain traction.
  3. Single-Crop Focus Studies:
    There is a waning interest in research that focuses solely on individual fruit species without considering broader ecological or multi-crop systems, reflecting a shift towards more integrated approaches.
