MySQL Slave not updated

MySQLmysql-5.5replication

This might be a duplicate of questions on the same problem asked before. But all the suggestions to the previous questions do not seem to work in my case.
I have set up Replication using SSH Tunnel. Any changes on Master are being logged in the mysqld-relay-bin file on the slave. But the SQL thread does not seem to be executing these queries as Slave is not being updated.

A replication user has been created with host as 127.0.0.1 and granted the replication slave privilege. For testing purpose, I've run the following command to establish the SSH tunnel.

ssh -f tom@abc.com -L 7306:127.0.0.1:3306 -N

I can successfully login into the remote server's db using 

 mysql -u root -p -h 127.0.0.1 -P 4306

Below are the outputs of SHOW MASTER STATUS, SHOW SLAVE STATUS, SHOW PROCESSLIST respectively:

What am I missing ?

The replication filter you have in place

Replicate_Wild_Do_Table: zo_dev_matrix.*

is actually a little misleading. In the MySQL Documentation, the legal characters for wildcards are %, _ and \_. (If you want to interpret a literal underscore). The asterisk character is not listed. The above filter is actually looking for a table called zo_dev_matrix.*. Therefore, you have two options

OPTION #1

Correct the filter in my.cnf to have this

[mysqld]
replicate_wild_do_table = zo_dev_matrix.%

OPTION #2

Change the filter to the database zo_dev_matrix

replicate_do_db = zo_dev_matrix

only if all your queries do no preface the table with the db and you explicit set the current database to zo_dev_matrix.

CAVEAT

With MySQL 5.6 and back, you must restart mysql after changing the filter in my.cnf. Starting with MySQL 5.7, you can create a dynamic replication filter so a mysql restart is not necessary.
