Priming of tomato mother plants using chemical elicitors linked to whole genome DNA methylation.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Inbred parental lines of two cultivars (cv Moneyberg and cv Bolstar Granda) of the model crop tomato were primed (induced for resistance) during four different moments in their development, i.e. once in the vegetative phase (time window 1), once in the generative phase at early flowering (time window 2), multiple times in the generative phase during flowering (time window 3), and once during ripening of the first fruit bunch (time window 4). The primers were ß-aminobutyric acid (BABA), 2,6-dichloroisonicotinic acid (INA), methyljasmonate (MeJA), and water as control; they were selected for their ability to induce different plant resistance pathways. After collecting seed batches from these plants we here look at the effect of priming the tomato plants with those different chemicals on the plant genome methylation level.
