High impact information on TOM3

  • Positional cloning showed that TOM3 was one of two TOM1-like genes in Arabidopsis [1].
  • As TOM1 and TOM3 homologues are present in a variety of plant species, their inhibition via RNA interference should constitute a useful method for generating tobamovirus-resistant plants [2].
