Abstract excerpt
The tomato gene Mi-1 confers resistance to three species of root-knot nematodes, Meloidogyne spp. However, the resistance mediated by Mi-1 is inactive at soil temperatures above 28 degrees C. Previously, we identified and mapped a novel heat-stable nematode resistance gene from the wild species Lycopersicon peruvianum accession LA2157 on to chromosome 6. Here we report further characterization of this heat-stable...
