MT BB: Tomato cultivar for practical classes of plant genetics and breeding [PDF]
Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2013 MT BB cultivar originated from a backcross program which aimed at adding two recessive mutations that alter leaf architecture(potato leaf – c) and flower color (white flower – wf) to Micro-Tom cultivar, which is a tomato miniature. MT BB was developedfor

Tomato prosystemin gene in other Solanaceae [PDF]
, 2009 Systemin, an octadeca-peptide isolated from tomato, is a signalling molecule involved in local and systemic wound response. It regulates the activation of more than twenty defensive genes in tomato plants in response to herbivore attacks.

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Marginal water sources, such as wastewater, have been proposed as the basis for hydroponic nutrient solutions to improve the resource efficiency of greenhouse‐based tomato production. Such water sources are often low in plant‐available nutrient concentrations, and uptake and use efficiency of these nutrients may vary widely among ...

The Rg1 allele as a valuable tool for genetic transformation of the tomato 'Micro-Tom' model system [PDF]
Plant Methods, 2010 Abstract Background The cultivar Micro-Tom (MT) is regarded as a model system for tomato genetics due to its short life cycle and miniature size. However, efforts to improve tomato genetic transformation have led to protocols dependent on the costly hormone zeatin, combined with an excessive number of steps.

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Plants, like humans, have a microbiome that helps them grow, defend themselves against pathogens, acquire nutrients, and protect themselves against environmental stresses. The microbiome of tomatoes, a staple crop grown worldwide, could be utilized not only to reduce fertilizer and pesticide applications, but also to clean up harmful pollutants ...
