Journal ArticleDOI

High density molecular linkage maps of the tomato and potato genomes.

TL;DR: Currently tomato and potato are among the most thoroughly mapped eukaryotic species and the availability of high density molecular linkage maps should facilitate chromosome walking, quantitative trait mapping, marker-assisted breeding and evolutionary studies in these two important and well studied crop species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Map-based cloning of a protein kinase gene conferring disease resistance in tomato

TL;DR: A yeast artificial chromosome clone that spans the Pto region was identified and used to probe a leaf complementary DNA (cDNA) library, suggesting a role for Pto in a signal transduction pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

Understanding the functions of plant disease resistance proteins.

TL;DR: Many disease resistance (R) proteins of plants detect the presence of disease-causing bacteria, viruses, or fungi by recognizing specific pathogen effector molecules that are produced during the infection process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Initiation of plant disease resistance by physical interaction of AvrPto and Pto kinase

TL;DR: The physical interaction of AvrPto and Pto provides an explanation of gene-for-gene specificity in bacterial speck disease resistance in plants.
