چکیده
Tomato has been a good model plant to analyze plant-pathogen interactions and its prospects for the future are promising. An international consortium named International Solanaceae Genomics Project (SOL) is proceeding with whole genome sequencing of tomato. In order to be relevant in the post-genomic era, accumulation of information on tomatopathogen interactions is important. In this review, the following topics are addressed from the perspective of plant pathology: cultivars of tomato, wild species of tomato, disease-resistance in modern breeding of tomato, fungal, bacterial, and viral pathogens of tomato, known interactions between tomato and pathogens, fungicides and biocontrol agents applicable to tomato, and systemic resistance induced by microbes and by plant activators. Tomato is one of the most popular vegetables worldwide, however, its cultivation has been limited by an abundant attack by pathogens. In order to establish effective control methods to control them, analysis of tomato-pathogen interactions is also important.

Mapping out the structural changes of natural and pretreated plant cell wall surfaces by atomic force microscopy single molecular recognition imaging
BACKGROUND Enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass (mainly plant cell walls) is a critical process for biofuel production. This process is greatly hindered by the natural complexity of plant cell walls and limited accessibility of surface cellulose by enzymes. Little is known about the plant cell wall structural and molecular level component changes after pretreatments, especially on th...

Some crops are protected from viruses by disease-resistance genes. Plants carrying these genes are identified by plant breeders and refined as new varie ties for use in agricul ture through a lengthy crossing programme. However, the appro priate resist ance genes are not always avail able and many crops are susceptible to virus disease. To protect these susceptible crops there is a promising ne...

The oligosaccharide structures of total glycoproteins in suspension-cultured Arabidopsis thaliana MM2d cells are determined. The N-linked sugar chains released by hydrazinolysis were labeled with 2-aminopyridine, and analyzed by a combination of HPLC, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry, and exoglucosidase digestion. The glycan structures determined were...
