Abstract
⺠Tomato fruit pre-exposed to ozone had reduced fungal lesion development and enhanced protection. ⺠Tomatoes subjected to ozone enrichment retained fruit firmness. ⺠Wounded and/or inoculated (with Botrytis cinerea) tomato fruit had enhanced expression of both signal transduction and defence-related genes. ⺠Ozone treatment inhibited the expression of both signal transduction and defence-related genes.
