چکیده

fusarium wilt caused by fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici is one of the major obstacles to the production of tomato which causes huge losses in tomato products worldwide. in order to increase the tolerance to this disease, a triple structure containing pr1, chitinase and glucanase genes controlled by 35s promoter was transferred to tomato. eight days after planting on pre-culture medium, explants were inoculated by agrobacterium tumefaciens strain lba4404 containing the aforementioned plasmid. when the regenerated shoots grew to 2-3 cm, they were cut and transferred to rooting medium.the plantlets were then transferred to pots filled with a soil mixture of peat moss and perlite for further acclimatization. the putative transgenic plant lines were analyzed by multiplex pcr and the transcription of the transgenes was confirmed by rt-pcr method using the specific primers. the estimated value for the frequency of the simultaneous transfer of chitinase, glucanase and pr1 genes to tomato was 2.7%. protein extracts of transgenic plants expressing chitinase, glucanase and pr1 genes inhibited in vitro hyphal growth of f. oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici. compared with non-transgenic control plants, despite some alterations in chlorophyll content no other morphological changes were observed in transgenic plants. the total content of chlorophyll “a” and “b” in transgenic plants were 31.8 and 36.2 % higher than that of control plants, respectively, which may be attributed to metabolic changes due to simultaneous expression of three transgenes.

Developing of Dna-marker to the Fusarium Oxysporum F. Sp. Lycopersici Resistance Genes of Tomato

Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici is a destructive disease of tomato crops worldwide. The use of resistant varieties is the best strategy for disease control. In the present study we analyze eight tomato lines and hybrids for Fusarium wilt disease resistance by polymerase chain reaction. Total genomic DNA was extracted from young leaves of three-week-old plants of to...

Induced resistance in tomato plants by IAA against Fusarium oxysporum lycopersici.

The phytohormone IAA (indol-3-acetic acid) was tested in vitro on growth of tomato wilt pathogen Fusarium oxysporum lycopersici. The hormone reduced spore germination, mycelial dry weight and protein content. Such reduction was matched with the elevation in the hormone concentration. The in vivo application of IAA to soil of the uninoculated plants (controls) improved growth and yielded longer ...

Evaluation of Plant Extracts against Fusarium Oxysporum F. Sp. Lycopersici, Wilt Pathogen of Tomato

Wilt is an important disease of tomato crop causing significant reduction in yield. In present study, the pathogenic fungus was isolated from infected plant and identified based on morphological and cultural characters as Fusarium oxysporum f.sp.lycopersici whose pathogenicity was confirmed by Koch’s postulate on tomato seedling. In vitro evaluation of extracts of 20 plant species was done by p...

MicroRNAs Suppress NB Domain Genes in Tomato That Confer Resistance to Fusarium oxysporum

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) suppress the transcriptional and post-transcriptional expression of genes in plants. Several miRNA families target genes encoding nucleotide-binding site-leucine-rich repeat (NB-LRR) plant innate immune receptors. The fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici causes vascular wilt disease in tomato. We explored a role for miRNAs in tomato defense against F. oxysporum using ...

Compost and biochar alter mycorrhization, tomato root exudation, and development of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici

Soil amendments like compost and biochar are known to affect soil properties, plant growth as well as soil borne plant pathogens. Complex interactions based on microbial activity and abiotic characteristics are supposed to be responsible for suppressive properties of certain substrates, however, the specific mechanisms of action are still widely unknown. In the present study, the main focus was...
