Article Determination of Resistance Levels To Clavibacter Michiganensis Subsp. Michiganensis in Some Solanum Species(Ege Tarımsal Araştırma Enstitüsü, 2022) Frary, Anne; Şanver, Utku; Akköse Baytar, Asena; Özaktan, Hatice; Doğanlar, SamiClavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis (Cmm), is a devastating bacterial disease agent causing bacterial wilt and canker in tomatoes. There is no definitive solution to prevent yield losses by Cmm in tomatoes. Moreover, there is currently no commercially successful Cmm resistant tomato cultivar on the market. Therefore, we aimed to determine the tolerance level of some tomato accessions to Cmm in the present study. For this purpose, we screened seven tomato accessions representing four species (Solanum arcanum, S. habrochaites, S. pennellii, and S. peruvianum) from Peru, Ecuador, and Mexico against the highly virulent isolates Cmm-244 and Cmm-9. A root immersion method was used to identify new sources of resistance to this important disease. Two accessions, S. habrochaites LA1777, and S. arcanum LA2157 were found to be moderate and highly tolerant, respectively, and could serve as tolerance resources for tomato breeding in Türkiye. These materials can also be investigated more extensively to determine their intrinsic Cmm tolerance mechanism.Book Part Citation - WoS: 10Synteny Among Solanaceae Genomes(Springer, 2016) Frary, Amy; Doğanlar, Sami; Frary, AnneThe Solanaceae was among the first plant families to be analyzed via comparative mapping and thus was a pioneer in the realm of synteny studies. Analyses of chromosome content and organization have employed a range of techniques, including linkage mapping of genes and molecular markers, physical mapping via fluorescence in situ hybridization, and sequencing of relatively small genomic segments as well as the complete sequencing of the tomato genome. Early comparisons in the family involved tomato and its close relative potato and have extended outward to include eggplant, pepper, tobacco, and petunia. Not surprisingly, the degree of synteny among these species is a function of the time since their divergence, with inversion, translocation, and transposition being the chief mechanisms of chromosome rearrangement. The results of this work provide important insight into the modes and tempo of plant genome evolution while serving a practical purpose as well: knowledge of genome synteny and colinearity makes it easier to leverage resources from one species to another in this agronomically important family.Book Part Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Physiology of Metabolites(CABI Publishing, 2012) Frary, Amy; Frary, AnneThis chapter provides an overview of recent research on the effects of genotype fruit development and growing conditions on the synthesis and concentrations of the following metabolites in pepper (Capsicum spp.): antioxidants, carotenoids, phenolic compounds, capsaicinoids, flavonoids and vitamin C.Article Citation - Scopus: 18Organogenesis From Transformed Tomato Explants(Humana Press, 2005) Frary, Anne; Van Eck, JoyceTomato was one of the first crops for which a genetic transformation system was reported involving regeneration by organogenesis from Agrobacterium-transformed explants. Since the initial reports, various factors have been studied that affect the efficiency of tomato transformation and the technique has been useful for the isolation and identification of many genes involved in plant disease resistance, morphology and development. In this method, cotyledon explants from in vitro-grown seedlings are precultured overnight on a tobacco suspension feeder layer. The explants are then inoculated with Agrobacterium and returned to the feeder layer for a 2-d period of cocultivation. After cocultivation, the explants are transferred to an MS-based selective regeneration medium containing zeatin. Regenerated shoots are then rooted on a separate selective medium. This protocol has been used with several tomato cultivars and routinely yields transformation efficiencies of 10-15%.
