ShORR-1, a Novel Tomato Gene, Confers Enhanced Host Resistance to Oidium neolycopersici.

ABSTRACT: A previous complementary cDNA-amplified fragment length polymorphism (cDNA-AFLP) analysis examined responses to the powdery mildew pathogen Oidium neolycopersici (On) of the resistant cultivar Solanum habrochiates G1.1560, carrying the Ol-1 resistance gene, and susceptible cultivar S. lycopersicum Moneymaker (MM). Among other findings, a differentially expressed transcript-derived fragment (DE-TDF) (M14E72-213) was upregulated in near isogenic line (NIL)-Ol-1, but absent in MM. This DE-TDF showed high homology to a gene of unknown function, which we named ShORR-1 (Solanum habrochaites Oidium Resistance Required-1). However, MM homolog of ShORR-1 (named ShORR-1-M) was still found with 95.26% nucleic acid sequence similari
