Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Solanum lycopersicoides expressed the highest levels of resistance to Botrytis cinerea and Alternaria solani among eight wild species.
- Observation Resistance of S. lycopersicoides to B. cinerea manifested as containment of pathogen growth.
- Observation In response to B. cinerea, differentially expressed transcripts of S. lycopersicoides grouped into four categories.
- Intervention effect Almost immediately after B. cinerea infection, S. lycopersicoides suppressed photosynthesis and metabolic processes.
- Intervention effect B. cinerea infection induced defense-related genes in S. lycopersicoides, including PR1 and a glucanase.
- Observation Orthologous defense-related genes in S. lycopersicum showed differences in onset and intensity of induction after B. cinerea infection.
- Observation Metabolic pathway analyses identified putative defense-related categories of secondary metabolites in S. lycopersicoides.
- Observation Homology-based searches identified a limited number of highly expressed B. cinerea genes during infection.
