Comprehensive observation of trichome development in Micro-tom tomato
Trichomes help plants defend against various stresses by formation of a protective barrier. Although the unicellular trichomes in Arabidopsis have been well studied, little is known of the development of multicellular trichomes in tomato.

Transcriptomic Analysis of Early Fruit Development in Micro-Tom Tomato Reveals Conserved and Cultivar-Specific Mechanisms [PDF]
Early fruit development in tomato is driven by complex gene expression patterns and metabolic reprogramming, a crucial phase that shapes the fruit’s final size and structure. Previous studies using the Micro-Tom model have largely focused on later stages

Plastid Transformation of Micro-Tom Tomato with a Hemipteran Double-Stranded RNA Results in RNA Interference in Multiple Insect Species. [PDF]
Plant-mediated RNA interference (RNAi) holds great promise for insect pest control, as plants can be transformed to produce double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) to selectively down-regulate insect genes essential for survival.
