Long-read sequencing of extrachromosomal circular DNA and genome assembly of a Solanum lycopersicum breeding line revealed active LTR retrotransposons originating from S. Peruvianum L. introgressions [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2023 Transposable elements (TEs) are a major force in the evolution of plant genomes. Differences in the transposition activities and landscapes of TEs can vary substantially, even in closely related species.

Thermotolerance of tomato plants grafted onto wild relative rootstocks [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Heat stress is a major environmental constraint limiting tomato production. Tomato wild relatives Solanum pennellii and S. peruvianum are known for their drought tolerance but their heat stress responses have been less investigated, especially when used ...

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 ...

Evaluation of Tomato Germplasm against Tomato Brown Rugose Fruit Virus and Identification of Resistance in Solanum pimpinellifolium [PDF]
PlantsThe tomato is one of the most important vegetable crops grown worldwide. Tomato brown rugose fruit virus (ToBRFV), a seed-borne tobamovirus, poses a serious threat to tomato production due to its ability to break the resistant genes (Tm-1, Tm-2, Tm-22 ...

Tomato: a crop species amenable to improvement by cellular and molecular methods [PDF]
, 1989 Tomato is a crop plant with a relatively small DNA content per haploid genome and a well developed genetics. Plant regeneration from explants and protoplasts is feasable which led to the development of efficient transformation procedures.
