This project investigates how the tomato plant detects and responds to the bacterium Clavibacter michiganensis, which causes significant crop damage. It aims to identify the molecular mechanisms behind the plant's immune response and how the bacterium evades these defenses to establish infection.
The Gram-positive bacterium Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis (Cmm) is the causative agent of wilt and canker disease of tomato that is responsible for heavy damages to agricultural tomato crops worldwide.
The molecular mechanisms underlying successful Cmm infection of tomato are poorly understood.
Like other plants, tomato possesses an innate immunity system for detection of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), motifs found in conserved molecules of potential invading…
