NaCl tolerance in Lycopersicon pennellii introgression lines: QTL related to physiological responses [PDF]
Biologia Plantarum, 2011 The growth and ion content of salt sensitive Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. M82 and salt tolerant L. pennellii Correll accession LA716 were examined under both control and stress conditions (150 mM NaCl). L.

Genome-wide identification and analysis of the evolution and expression pattern of the HVA22 gene family in three wild species of tomatoes [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Wild tomato germplasm is a valuable resource for improving biotic and abiotic stresses in tomato breeding. The HVA22 is widely present in eukaryotes and involved in growth and development as well as stress response, such as cold, salt, drought, and ...

Epicuticular Lipid Accumulation on the Leaves of Lycopersicon pennellii (Corr.) D'Arcy and Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1985 A comparison was made of epicuticular lipid accumulation on leaves of Lycopersicon pennellii and Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv VF36 from 5 to 16 weeks of age. Epicuticular lipids were a small fraction of the leaf dry weight (0.16%) of 5-week-old ;VF36', and increased to only 0.96% of the leaf dry weight after an additional 12 weeks of growth.

QTL analysis of fruit antioxidants in tomato using Lycopersicon pennellii introgression lines
Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2005 Antioxidants present in fruits and vegetables may help prevent some chronic diseases such as cancer, arthritis, and heart disease. Tomatoes provide a major contribution to human dietary nutrition because of their widespread consumption in fresh and ...

Branched Chain Amino Acid Metabolism in the Biosynthesis of Lycopersicon pennellii Glucose Esters. [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1990 Lycopersicon pennellii Corr. (D'Arcy) an insect-resistant, wild tomato possesses high densities of glandular trichomes which exude a mixture of 2,3,4-tri-O-acylated glucose esters that function as a physical impediment and feeding deterrent to small arthropod pests.

Resistance to Phytophthora infestans in Lycopersicon pennellii. [PDF]
Plant Disease, 2007 To determine if the desert tomato, Lycopersicon pennellii, possesses resistance to late blight, caused by Phytophthora infestans, two plant populations were analyzed. Resistance was identified through assessments of disease progress in an F2 mapping population (L. esculentum × L. pennellii) and in a series of introgression lines (L.

Phylogenetic Divergence and Domestication Jointly Shape the Tomato Root Microbiome [PDF]
PlantsDomestication reduced the genetic diversity in modern crops, often resulting in reduced resilience to biotic and abiotic stress. Evidence is now accumulating that domestication also altered the structure and function of root-associated microbiomes ...
