Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) and root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) – a century-old battle (2015, background): “The use of tomatoes with the Mi resistance gene was economically justified based on its cost efficacy (Sorribas et al., 2005b).”
The reproductive potential of the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita is affected by selection for virulence against major resistance genes from tomato and pepper (2011, background): “However, although this gene has been an excellent example of the use of host resistance to effectively reduce the need for pesticide application (Sorribas et al. 2005), the lack of diversity in the resistance sources exploited explains in part the emergence and spread of Mi-1-virulent nematode popul”
