Bacterial wilt of solanaceous vegetables caused by the soil-borne pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum is a serious plant disease-causing heavy economical losses. Traditional methods such as vegetable grafting, cultural, biological, and chemical methods have limited success rate against bacterial wilt when used alone though in combination some success has been reported. Biotechnological techniques such as somatic hybridization/protoplast fusion, marker-assisted breeding, genetic engineering, transcriptomics, and gene silencing against bacterial wilt disease are the techniques which may circumvent problems associated with selection for disease resistance with the use of conventional breeding. There is a need for cultivars with stable resistance. In this review, information regarding somatic hybridization, marker-assisted breeding, transcriptomics, genetic engineering and gene silencing so far accomplished in the solanaceous vegetables to combat the bacterial wilt has been covered.

由土壤传播的病原体Ralstonia solanacearum引起的茄类蔬菜细菌性枯萎病是一种严重的植物病害，造成巨大的经济损失。传统方法，例如蔬菜嫁接，文化，生物和化学方法，单独使用时，对细菌枯萎病的成功率有限，尽管已结合报道了一些成功方法。生物技术技术，例如体细胞杂交/原生质体融合，标记辅助育种，基因工程，转录组学和针对细菌枯萎病的基因沉默是可以规避与使用常规育种选择抗病性相关的问题的技术。需要具有稳定抗性的品种。在这篇综述中，涵盖了迄今为止在茄类蔬菜中抗击青枯病的体细胞杂交，标记辅助育种，转录组学，基因工程和基因沉默方面的信息。
