Project description:To characterize the PTI response of tomato and the effect of the delivery of a subset of effectors, we performed an RNA-seq analysis of tomato Rio Grande prf3 leaves challenged with either the flgII-28 peptide or the following bacterial strains: Agrobacterium tumefaciens GV2260, Pseudomonas fluorescens 55, Pseudomonas putida KT2440, Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst) DC3000, Pst DC3000 deltahrcQ-U deltafliC and Pst DC3000 deltaavrPto deltaavrPtoB. NOTE: Samples in SRA were assigned the same sample accession. This is incorrect as there are different samples, hence âSource Nameâ was replaced with new values. Comment[ENA_SAMPLE] contains the original SRA sample accessions.
Project description:The tomato SlWRKY3 transcription factor was overexpressed in cultivated tomato (Solanum lycopersicum)and transgenic plants transcriptome was compared to that of wild-type plants.
Project description:In the present study, we demonstrated that application of CaCl2 to ‘Micro Tom’ tomato fruit (mature green stage) delayed fruit senescence and mature.
Project description:In this study, we explored the metabolome and transcriptome of the ripe fruit in nine landrace accessions representing the seven genetic groups and compared them to the mature fruit of the wild progenitor S. pimpinellifolium. The goal is to shed light in understanding the factors responsible for acquiring tomato fruit quality (taste and flavour) at molecular level during the domestication process.
Project description:RNA sequencing in tomato for detect mRNA expression of Solanum lycopersicum flower.The two cultivars (monomaker, raceme) had three different flowering stages (budlet, Flower bud, Full bloom) for transcriptome sequencing
Project description:Ethylene receptor protein quantification is essential to study their functions, but is impaired by low resolutive tools such as antibodies that are mostly nonspecific. Here we report a proteomic method that enables the quantification of all tomato ethylene receptors, which can be applied to other organisms. Testing this method, we found that “Never-Ripe” tomatoes stay orange while a mutated receptor accumulated at ripening, further blocking the ethylene signal .
Project description:Plants represent the nutritional basis of virtually all life on earth and protein-rich foods from crop plants are a global megatrend essential for sustaining an increasing human population and counteracting climate change. While the genomes of crops are increasingly elucidated, little is known about crop proteomes – the entirety of proteins that execute and control nearly every aspect of life. To address this shortcoming we optimized a protocol for mapping the proteome of different crops such as Solanum lycopersicum (tomato) fruit and included four technical replicates and three biological replicates from different tomato plants to demonstrate the robustness of the workflow.
