Project description:To characterize the PTI response of tomato and the effect of the delivery of a subset of effectors, we performed an RNA-seq analysis of tomato Rio Grande prf3 leaves challenged with either the flgII-28 peptide or the following bacterial strains: Agrobacterium tumefaciens GV2260, Pseudomonas fluorescens 55, Pseudomonas putida KT2440, Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst) DC3000, Pst DC3000 deltahrcQ-U deltafliC and Pst DC3000 deltaavrPto deltaavrPtoB. NOTE: Samples in SRA were assigned the same sample accession. This is incorrect as there are different samples, hence âSource Nameâ was replaced with new values. Comment[ENA_SAMPLE] contains the original SRA sample accessions.
Project description:In this experiment we measured the transcriptional response of ten tomato cultivars when infected by the plant-parasitic nematode M. incognita. The ten cultivars showed differential levels of susceptibility to M. incognita infection. Ten-days old plants were exposed to nematodes and harvested 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, or 10 days post infection. Galls or representative uninfected tissues were harvested and used for RNA sequencing. The data was used to investigate the link between susceptibility to M. incognita infection and gene expression in tomato.
