Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici, Verticillium spp., and nematodes, as
well as virus diseases that negatively affect production with limited chemical
control cause significant losses in greenhouse tomato cultivation. The practical
and effective side of controlling diseases is genetic control by breeding. Using
a genomic approach for plant breeding is a more sustainable and effective
way to control disease and pests. The development of the resistant line is
improved by conventional breeding methods that can be conducted over a
long period. However, molecular markers make these processes considerably
shorter with identifying resistant individuals. In this study, 14 wild and 188
cultivated tomato genotypes have been tested against Fusarium oxysporum f.
sp. radicis-lycopersici (FORL), Meloidogyne spp. (root-knot nematodes),
Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV), Tomato mosaic virus (ToMV), Tomato
yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) and Verticillum dahliae Kleb. (Ve) diseases and
pests with using MAS (Marker- Assisted Selection) technique. According to
these results, it has been determined that the selected markers can be used
effectively in breeding studies to determine the diseases mentioned above.
