This Small Business Innovation Research Phase I project proposes to develop grafted tomato transplants for greenhouse and field applications in the USA. Genetic-based sources of resistance to soil-borne pathogens and pests are currently being used as the rootstocks for grafted tomatoes in Southern Europe, Asia and Australia. In these countries, vegetable production is being impacted by the elimination of methyl bromide. Biological control strategies, such as grafting, will have increasing value in the USA as disease profiles and chemical pesticide regulations change. This research will demonstrate the production of high quality greenhouse bench grafts using rootstocks with disease resistance. The commercial applications of this project are in the field of agriculture.

这个小企业创新研究第一阶段项目建议在美国开发用于温室和田间应用的嫁接番茄移植。在南欧、亚洲和澳大利亚，目前正在使用对土壤传播的病原体和害虫具有抗性的基因来源作为嫁接番茄的砧木。在这些国家，蔬菜生产正受到消除甲基溴的影响。随着疾病概况和化学农药法规的变化，生物防治策略，如嫁接，在美国将具有越来越大的价值。这项研究将证明生产高品质的温室板凳嫁接与抗病砧木。该项目的商业应用是在农业领域。
