The evolution of inflorescence diversity in the nightshades and heterochrony during meristem maturation [PDF]
One of the most remarkable manifestations of plant evolution is the diversity for floral branching systems. These "inflorescences" arise from stem cell populations in shoot meristems that mature gradually to reproductive states in response to ...

Characterization of RIN Isoforms and Their Expression in Tomato Fruit Ripening
Ripening of tomato fleshy fruit is coordinated by transcription factor RIN, which triggers ethylene and carotenoid biosynthesis, sugar accumulation, and cell wall modifications. In this study, we identified and characterized complete sequences of the RIN

Response of the tomato leaf miner Phthorimaea absoluta to wild and domesticated tomato genotypes. [PDF]
We evaluated oviposition and larval performance of P. absoluta on 19 tomato genotypes as an element of integrated pest management. Two wild tomatoes and a domesticated one showed resistance against the pest. Abstract BACKGROUND Phthorimaea absoluta, a highly destructive invasive pest, poses a significant threat to tomato production globally.

Identification of cDNA Clones Coding for the Style Specific S11a-Glycoprotein Gene Associated with Gametophytic Self-incompatibility in Tomato (Lycopersicon peruvianum) [PDF]
We isolated 18 cDNA candidates that were expected to encode parts of the self-incompatibility-associated RNase of Lycopersicon peruvianum PI 126441 (S11a-plant) from a style cDNA library. Polymerase chain reaction was used with oligonucleotides derived from conserved amino acid sequences of RNases from fungi and S-associated RNases in other species of ...

Resistance to Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus in Tomato Germplasm
Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) is a virus species causing epidemics in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) worldwide. Many efforts have been focused on identification of resistance sources by screening wild tomato species.

Clavibacter michiganensis Reframed: The Story of How the Genomics Era Made a New Face for an Old Enemy. [PDF]
We provide a historical perspective and an updated overview on the aetiology, epidemiology and management strategies of tomato bacterial canker caused by Clavibacter michiganensis. ABSTRACT Objective Bacterial wilt and canker of tomato caused by the gram‐positive corynebacterial species Clavibacter michiganensis is an economically important disease ...

Divergent Mating Systems and Parental Conflict as a Barrier to Hybridization in Flowering Plants [PDF]
Parental conflicts can lead to antagonistic coevolution of the sexes and of parental genomes. Within a population, the resulting antagonistic effects should balance, but crosses between populations can reveal conflict.

Study of the genetic diversity of tomato (Solanum spp.) with ISSR markers
In this study, 55 tomato genotypes from different geographical regions were evaluated with ISSR markers (Inter Simple Sequence Repeats). The seven ISSR primers originated 63 amplified bands, of which 90.48% were polymorphic. The cluster analysis based on

Sequence evolution and expression regulation of stress-responsive genes in natural populations of wild tomato. [PDF]
The wild tomato species Solanum chilense and S. peruvianum are a valuable non-model system for studying plant adaptation since they grow in diverse environments facing many abiotic constraints.
