Tomato mutants have been used in genetic studies and breeding for decades, yet only a few
tomato mutants have been characterized at the molecular level. Similarly, a wealth of …

The tomato Cf-9 gene confers resistance to infection by races of the fungus Cladosporium
fulvum that carry the avirulence gene Avr9. The Cf-9 gene was isolated by transposon …

The purpose of this study was to develop a model system for studying tomato genetics.
Agronomic, genetic, and molecular data are presented which show that the miniature …

In tomato, infections by tomato mosaic virus are controlled by durable Tm-2 2 resistance. In
order to gain insight into the processes underlying disease resistance and its durability, we …

We generated T‐DNA insertions throughout the rice genome for saturation mutagenesis.
More than 1000 flanking sequences were mapped on 12 rice chromosomes. Our results …

Plant genetic engineering has, until now, relied on the incorporation of foreign DNA into
plant genomes. Public concern about the extent to which transgenic crops differ from their …

We describe new tools for functional analysis of the tomato genome based on insertional
mutagenesis with the maize Ac/Ds transposable elements in the background of the …

Transposons have been successfully exploited as insertional mutagens for the efficient
identification and isolation of genes (transposon tagging) in many organisms. Plants are no …

Summary The tomato Cf‐4 and Cf‐9 genes confer resistance to the leaf mould pathogen
Cladosporium fulvum and map at a complex locus on the short arm of chromosome 1. It was …

Oryza sativa subspecies indica cultivar IR-50 was transformed with Vigna aconitifolia P5CS
cDNA under the control of Ubiquitin (Ub) promoter and nos terminator using PDS 1000 He …
