Project description:Phosphonate related fungicides such as neutralized phosphorous acid (NPA) are effective for the control of plant diseases, especially those caused by Phytophthora and other oomycetes. It has been suggested that phosphonate may induce plant resistance, however, the mechanism is not clear thus far. We performed microarray analysis using Affymetrix Tomato Genome Array to identify tomato genes that are differentially expressed in response to NPA treatment.
Project description:Phosphonate related fungicides such as neutralized phosphorous acid (NPA) are effective for the control of plant diseases caused by Oomycetes including Phytophthora parasitica. It has been proposed that phosphonate may induce plant resistance. However, the mechanism underlying phosphonate-induced resistance remains unclear. The purpose of this study is to identify genes that are differentially expressed in phosphonate-pretreated tomato plants in response to inoculation with Phytophthora parasitica.
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:The tomato SlWRKY3 transcription factor was overexpressed in cultivated tomato (Solanum lycopersicum)and transgenic plants transcriptome was compared to that of wild-type plants.
