Effects of Temperature on ToMV Multiplication and Changes of Soluble Leaf Proteins in Tomato

ToMV concentrations in virus inoculated tomato plants were analyzed by local lesion test. The results showed that virus concentrations in resistan-t line GCR-267 was 1/40—1/50 that in susceptible line GCR-26. ToMV multiplication was strongly inhibited by gene Tm-2~a, which was not influenced by temperature. ToMV multiplication in GCR-26 was dependent on temperature, the higher the temperatature, the less the virus concentration. The changes of the soluble leaf proteins of tomato plants grown at constant or ...
