Interesting

Sefora is valued for its resistance to sharka (Plum pox virus), which is one of the most economically significant diseases in apricot production. This resistance makes it especially attractive for growers in regions where the disease pressure is high, helping reduce crop losses and the need for strict control measures.

Labeling Plants with QR Codes

At the Faculty of Horticulture and Landscape Engineering at SPU in Nitra, we've created a project that offers visitors to our plantings a new way to discover the beauty and intriguing aspects of plants. Each plant in our plantings has its own unique QR code. All a visitor needs to do is scan this code with their smartphone.
