(Submitter supplied) The increased susceptibility of ripe fruit to fungal pathogens poses a substantial threat to crop production and marketability. Here, we coupled transcriptomic analyses with mutant studies to uncover critical genes and processes governing ripening-associated susceptibility in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit. Using wild-type unripe and ripe fruit inoculated with three fungal pathogens—Botrytis cinerea, Fusarium acuminatum, and Rhizopus stolonifer—we identified common pathogen response genes reliant on chitinases, WRKY transcription factors, and reactive oxygen species detoxification. more...
