agriculture | construction of an interspecific cross between Solanum lycopersicum cv Moneymaker and the wild tomato Solanum habrochaites PI127826 leads to production of 7-epizingiberene in a range of concentrations up to PI127826 levels in the F2 plants. Plants also accumulate monoterpenes and/or other sesquiterpenes at high concentrations. Data show a correlation between the concentration of 7-epizingiberene on the leaf surface and the defense against whiteflies. Stable expression of short chain cis-prenyltransferase zFPS and 7-epizingiberene synthase in Solanum lycopersicum results in accumulation of 7-epizingiberene. The production of 7-epizingiberene has no repellent effect on spider mites in a choice assay, but has a strong effect on their fecundity. Mites placed on leaf disks of transgenic plants exhibit a 40% higher mortality and, after 4 d, an 81% reduction in the number of eggs | Solanum habrochaites |
