Description |
When insects feed on plants, most plants are able to deploy specific defense against insect attack by perceiving some small molecules and proteins, such as the elicitors FAC (fatty acid-amino acid conjugate) in Lepidoptera oral secretions. Although the FAC-induced defense responses have been intensively studied, yet little is known about how plants perceive FAC. Previously we found that the cultivated tomato Solanum lycopersicum does not perceive FAC in insect oral secretions, while the wild tomato S. pennelli is able to perceive FAC specially. One QTL involved in perceiving to FAC was mapped on chromosome 3 using a F2 population derived from the cross between wild tomato and cultivated tomato. Here we name the QTL as RTF (response to FAC). RTF can induce the synthesis of jasmonicacid in plants, and is a dominant gene. In this project, we will plant a large F2population and select extreme recessive plants with insensitivity to FAC and use the next-generation sequencing technology to assist fine-mapping of RTF. |
