common. I would assume they are naturally blight resistant. I wrote someone doing research like your article describes, but got no answer. I guess that would disrupt their research.
Go to your local college/university and suggest how they can beat the big guys at their own game :-). If that doesn't get them going, start collecting and planting the nuts - you could be the chestnut king!
