Bacterial wilt resistance gene Slmlo1/6 mutants in tomato created by CRISPR/Cas9 technology

Guangxi Zhiwu
Bacterial wilt is a devastating soil-borne disease in tomato(Solanum lycopersicum)production. The pathogenic species are complex and tend to have a variation, while mlo caused by the recessive mutation of MLO genes has a broad-spectrum resistance.

Engineering Pseudomonas protegens as a Targeted Antifungal‐Effector Delivery Chassis via Heterologous Type III Secretion System Reconstitution

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
A heterologous T3SS turns Pseudomonas protegens Pf‐5 into a programmable molecular syringe that delivers Bg9562 into Fusarium hyphae, suppresses fungal pathogens, enhances rhizosphere colonization and protects tomato plants from wilt. This modular platform offers a transferable strategy for next‐generation fungal biocontrol.

lincRNA6679 promotes FnPR1B expression via phosphorylation‐activated FnWRKY14 to enhance strawberry resistance to Botrytis cinerea

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 6, Page 1898-1918, June 2026.
In strawberry, Botrytis cinerea induces the expression of the long, intergenic non‐coding RNA lincRNA667，which upregulates the transcription factor gene FnWRKY14. FnWRKY14 then binds to the promoter of the pathogenesis‐related gene FnPR1B, enhancing strawberry resistance to B. cinerea.

The HaMYB22–HaGST3.2 module mediates salt stress response in sunflower

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 6, Page 1709-1726, June 2026.
The transcription factors HaMYB22, HaMYB120, and HaMYB121 cooperatively activate the transcription of the glutathione S‐transferase gene HaGST3.2, thereby facilitating the removal of reactive oxygen species induced by salt stress in sunflowers and improving their salt tolerance.

The Role of Two Glycoalkaloid Metabolism Genes in α‐Tomatine Biosynthesis and Basal Defence in Tomato

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
We generated knockout mutants of two tomato genes proposed to be involved in α‐tomatine biosynthesis by genome editing. SlGAME2 mutants contained unaltered α‐tomatine contents; this gene is not involved in its synthesis. SlGAME4 mutants did not accumulate any glycoalkaloids but instead redirected resources towards steroidal saponin synthesis.

Improving crop disease resistance : lessons from research on Arabidopsis and tomato [PDF]

, 2014
One of the great challenges for food security in the 21st century is to improve yield stability through the development of disease-resistant crops. Crop research is often hindered by the lack of molecular tools, growth logistics, generation time and ...

Genetic diversity of tomato germplasm resources resistant to bacterial wilt (Ralstonia solanacearum) revealed by AFLP

浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2009
The relationship and genetic diversity of 20 tomato germplasm resources resistant or susceptible to bacterial wilt (Ralstonia solanacearum) were analyzed by AFLP (amplified fragments length polymorphism)-silver staining approach. Five primer combinations

Construction of an Effector–Target Interaction Network for Identification of Immune‐Related Effectors in Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Based on the previously reported effector–target interaction network, we refined an immune‐related subnetwork via one‐to‐one yeast two‐hybrid assays in Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum, and showed all its effectors exhibit immune‐suppressive functions, demonstrating the power of refined effector–target networks to dissect effectoromes function.
