The Characterization of Septoria lycopersici Pathogenicity in Micro Tom Tomatoes

The FASEB Journal, 2017
Septoria lycopersici is a foliar fungal pathogen of tomatoes. This pathosystem has been well characterized with respect to the tomato antimicrobial secondary metabolite, alpha‐tomatine and the fungal detoxifying enzyme, tomatinase. However, there are many gaps in our knowledge of other aspects of the

Profiling of melatonin in the model tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) cultivar Micro‐Tom

Journal of Pineal Research, 2009
Abstract:  Melatonin exists in a considerable variety of plant species. However, the physiological roles of melatonin in plants are not well understood. In this study, the distribution and accumulation of melatonin during leaf and fruit development were analyzed in Micro‐Tom, a model cultivar of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.). Melatonin was extracted

Use of Micro-Tom cultivar in a Bemisia tabaci biotype B interaction study

Arthropod-Plant Interactions, 2018
Tomatoes of the Micro-Tom cultivar, Solanum lycopersicum L. (Solanaceae), are small, have a short life cycle, high-density growth, high-efficiency protocols for genetic transformation, and hormonal and morphological mutants. These characteristics make this cultivar a good candidate as a helpful tool in resistance studies against the whitefly, Bemisia ...

Agrobacterium tumefaciens–Mediated Stable Cotyledon Transformation of Solanum lycopersicum var. Micro-Tom

The tomato plant is the second most widely cultivated vegetable globally and a good model for studying fruit plants, as its genome is extensively sequenced. The Micro-Tom variety stands out as a valuable research tool due to its smaller size and shorter life cycle compared to other tomato varieties.

Catalog of Micro-Tom tomato responses to common fungal, bacterial, and viral pathogens

Journal of General Plant Pathology, 2005
Lycopersicon esculentum cultivar Micro-Tom is a miniature tomato with many advantages for studies of the molecular biology and physiology of plants. To evaluate the suitability of Micro-Tom as a host plant for the study of pathogenesis, Micro-Tom plants were inoculated with 16 well-known fungal, bacterial, and viral pathogens of tomato. Athelia rolfsii,

Micro-Tom Tomato as an Alternative Plant Model System: Mutant Collection and Efficient Transformation

2016
Tomato is a model plant for fruit development, a unique feature that classical model plants such as Arabidopsis and rice do not have. The tomato genome was sequenced in 2012 and tomato is becoming very popular as an alternative system for plant research.
