Response of the tomato leaf miner Phthorimaea absoluta to wild and domesticated tomato genotypes. [PDF]
Pest Manag SciWe 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.

Rate of meristem maturation determines inflorescence architecture in tomato [PDF]
, 2011 Flower production and crop yields are highly influenced by the architectures of inflorescences. In the compound inflorescences of tomato and related nightshades (Solanaceae), new lateral inflorescence branches develop on the flanks of older branches that

Study of the genetic diversity of tomato (Solanum spp.) with ISSR markers
Revista Ceres, 2020 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

Do potatoes and tomatoes have a single evolutionary history, and what proportion of the genome supports this history? [PDF]
, 2009 Background Phylogenies reconstructed with only one or a few independently inherited loci may be unresolved or incongruent due to taxon and gene sampling, horizontal gene transfer, or differential selection and lineage sorting at individual loci.
