Article Synopsis
- Developing melon genotypes resistant to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. Melonis (FOM) race 1.2 is essential for breeding, and this study identifies 11 gene markers linked to polygenic resistance during FOM1.2 interactions.
- The research shows that resistant varieties ('Shante-F1' and 'Khatouni') exhibit significant upregulation of specific genes and increased defense-related enzyme activities over time compared to susceptible varieties.
- These dynamic changes in gene expression suggest that resistance mechanisms are regulated through specific signaling pathways, revealing that some genes have a dual role in resistance against various pathogens.
