    Picture: Tomato plant leaves infected with virus


    In recent years, the emergence of a new tomato virus—Tomato Brown Ruffled Fruit Virus (ToBRFV) has threatened tomato production all over the world


    Tobacco mosaic virus is one of the most destructive plant viruses.


    Dominant resistance R genes are currently the most powerful means to control plant pathogens.


    Tomato resistant virus is tobacco by R gene Tm-1, Tm-2 and 2-allele Tm 2 gene penetration achieved


    In fact, ToBRFV is the first virus that can overcome the Tm-2 2 resistance gene.


    In addition, they made an interesting observation from an evolutionary perspective
