Abstract:The tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.), a widely cultivated and economically important vegetable crop, is subject to a number of biotic and abiotic stresses in nature. Several abiotic and biotic stresses have been demonstrated to elevate the concentration of cytosolic free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) in Arabidopsis due to the influx of calcium ions. In this study, recombinant aequorin was introduced into the tomato in order to investigate the change in [Ca2+]i when treated with exogenous Ca2+. This resulted in strong lumines… Show more
