Engineering resistance to TSWV (tomato spotted wilt virus)

GAO M.; ZAITLIN D.; JACK A.M.

University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY, U.S.A.

Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus (TSWV) is a devastating tospovirus that ranks among the top 10 most economically important plant viruses, accounting for >1 billion dollars in annual crop losses. TSWV routinely causes extensive damage to field crops in...

Engineering tobacco for resistance to Tomato spotted wilt virus

GAO M.; ZAITLIN D.

KTRDC, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY USA

Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus (TSWV) ranks among the top 10 most economically important plant viruses, accounting for >$1 billion in annual crop losses. TSWV routinely causes extensive damage to crops in the southeastern US. Genetic resistance is...

Natural variation in the acyl moieties of sugar esters produced by glandular trichomes in species of Nicotiana and Petunia

MIHAYLOVA-KROUMOVA A.; ZAITLIN D.; WAGNER G.J.

University of Kentucky, KTRDC, Lexington, KY, U.S.A.

A unique feature of the glandular trichomes of Solanaceae species is their production of sugar esters. These metabolites have been shown to possess insecticidal, antifungal, and antibacterial properties. Sugar esters produced by tobacco (N. tabacum)...

Nicotiana benthamiana genetics and genomics

ZAITLIN D.; YUAN L.

Kentucky Tobacco Research & Development Center University of Kentucky 1401 University Drive Lexington, KY 40546 USA

Nicotiana benthamiana is widely used in plant biology: it is an excellent host for studies of viral replication and gene silencing, and is the preferred platform for transient gene expression via agroinfiltration. N. benthamiana has also become...

The genome sequence of Peronospora tabacina, the tobacco blue mold pathogen

ZAITLIN D.

University of Kentucky, Kentucky Tobacco R&D Center, Lexington, KY, USA

Peronospora tabacina D. B. Adam (syn. P. hyoscyami de Bary) is the causal agent of blue mold disease, a major foliar disease of cultivated tobacco in many parts of the world. P. tabacina is classified as a downy mildew, a group of oomycetes that...

A draft genome sequence of Peronospora tabacina in the tobacco blue mold pathogen.

ZAITLIN D.

University of Kentucky, Kentucky Tobacco R&D Center, Lexington, KY, USA

Peronospora tabacina D.B. Adam (syn. P. hyoscyami de Bary) causes blue mold disease, a major foliar disease of cultivated tobacco in many parts of the world. P. tabacina is classified as a downy mildew, a group of biotrophic oomycetes that are...

Progress in Tobacco Blue Mold Research at KTRDC

ZAITLIN D.

University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY, USA

Tobacco blue mold disease is caused by Peronospora tabacina , a downy mildew (oomycete) organism that is limited in its host range to tobacco ( N. tabacum) and most other species of Nicotiana. Since 2002, blue mold research at KTRDC has focused on...
