a study was carried out to determine whether naturally-occurring weeds and other cultivated plants in tomato growing regions could act as symptomless reservoirs of infection to fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici. a numher of f. oxysporum isolates from weeds and oubergines were used in this investigation. a susceptible tomato cultivar was used for comparison. the plants were artificially ...

Glutamine synthetase was localized in leaves and cotyledons of young tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) plants using immunogold techniques coupled to transmission electron microscopy. The enzyme occurs only in chloroplasts and is most probably a stroma constituent.

Net ammonium and nitrate influx were independent of transpiration rate for intact seedlings of both a wild species of radish (Raphanus raphanistrum) and a wilty tomato mutant (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv RR flacca).

S. MANEVA, S., T. VATCHEV and E. MITEVA, 2013. Effect of lead excess in soil on the accumulation of P, K and Na in infected by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) plants. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 19: 972-980 Pot experiments were conducted in greenhouse of IPAZR, “N. Poushkarov”, Sofia, to study the effects of excess lead (Pb) in soils on the upta...

Four ecotypes of the species Lycopersicon cheesmanii ssp. minor (Hook.) C.H. Mull. from the Galapagos Islands were compared with L. esculentum Mill cv. VF 36 with respect to salt tolerance. The L. cheesmanii ecotype that proved most salt-tolerant was selected for detailed comparison with the L. esculentum cultivar. Plants were grown in modified Hoagland solution salinized with synthetic seawate...
