Over Time Changes in the Transcriptomic Profiles of Tomato Plants with or Without <i>Mi-1</i> Gene During Their Incompatible or Compatible Interactions with the Whitefly <i>Bemisia tabaci</i>.

ABSTRACT: Understanding the resistance mechanisms of plants against pests contributes to the sustainable deployment of plant resistance in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programmes. The Mi-1 gene in tomato is the only one described with the capacity to provide resistance to different types of harmful organisms such as plant parasitic nematodes and pest insects, including the whitefly Bemisia tabaci MED (Mediterranean species). In this work, gene expression in the interaction of B. tabaci with susceptible tomato plants lacking the Mi-1 gene (cv. Moneymaker, compatible interaction), and with resistant plants carrying the Mi-1 gene (cv. Motelle, incompatible interaction) was studied using the oligonucleotide microarray technique. Both interactions were studied 2 and
