Abstract

Tomato cultures are parasited by a large number of pathogens. The genetic control of a series of these is widely used in practice. The resistance sources are the wild species related to the cultivated tomato. At the world level four bacteria are very important. Genetic solutions are used to control two of them. The dominant gene Pto is very efficient against Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato. The genetic control of Ralstonia solanacearum is more complicated. New genetic hopes appear to limit the effect of Clavibacter michiganensis and Xanthomonas campestris pv vesicatoria.
