The Rg1 allele as a valuable tool for genetic transformation of the tomato 'Micro-Tom' model system
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2010)
Background: The cultivar Micro-Tom (MT) is regarded as a model system for tomato genetics due to its short life cycle and miniature size. However, efforts to improve tomato genetic transformation have led to protocols ...
Physiological and biochemical responses of photomorphogenic tomato mutants (cv. Micro-Tom) under water withholding
(Springer, 2016-06-01)
In addition to mediating photomorphogenesis, phytochromes are responsible for many abiotic stress responses, acting upon biochemical and molecular mechanisms of cell signaling. In this work, we measured the physiological ...
Differential ultrastructural changes in tomato hormonal mutants exposed to cadmium
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2009)
Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal, which can cause severe damage to plant development. The aim of this work was to characterize ultrastructural changes induced by Cd in miniature tomato cultivar Micro-Tom (MT) mutants ...
Novel glutamate dehydrogenase genes show increased transcript and protein abundances in mature tomato fruits
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2012-06)
NAD(P)H-glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH, EC 1.4.1.3) contributes to the control of glutamate homeostasis in all living organisms. In bacteria and animals, GDH is a homohexamer allosterically regulated, whereas in plants ...
Cadmium stress antioxidant responses and root-to-shoot communication in grafted tomato plants
(Springer, 2015)
Many aspects related to ROS modulation of signaling networks and biological processes that control stress responses still remain unanswered. For this purpose, the grafting technique may be a powerful tool to investigate ...
Potential of hydrogen (pH) differentially modulates cadmium stress response in abscisic acid-deficient sitiens tomato mutant
(Instituto Agronômico de Campinas, 2019)
ABSTRACT Uptake of nutrients and cadmium (Cd) are dependent upon many factors, including plant species, ions concentration and pH. Tolerance to Cd-induced oxidative stress can be modulated by phytohormones such as abscisic ...
