Novel Aspects of Tomato Root Colonization and Infection by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici Revealed by Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopic Analysis Using the Green Fluorescent Protein as a Marker

The fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici is the causal agent of tomato foot and root rot disease. The green fluorescent protein (GFP) was used to mark this fungus in order to visualize and analyze the colonization and infection processes in vivo. Transformation of F. oxysporum f. sp....
