The root exudates of wild tomato compared to a modern variety maintain elevated soluble soil phosphorus by interacting with rhizosphere microbiota [PDF]
Scientific ReportsWild plants are periodically exposed to nutrient flushes, whereas modern cultivars are acclimated to regular nutrition from fertilizers. Phosphorus (P) fertilizers, however, convert into unavailable forms in soil.

Identification and analysis of oxygen responsive microRNAs in the root of wild tomato (S. habrochaites) [PDF]
BMC Plant Biology, 2019 Background MicroRNA (miRNA) are key players in regulating expression of target genes at post-transcriptional level. A number of miRNAs are implicated in modulating tolerance to various abiotic stresses. Waterlogging is an abiotic stress that deters plant
