New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Stomatal closure prevents significant water losses during drought events. Yet, leaves are not perfectly hermetic and dehydration ensues through residual water losses, known as minimum conductance (gmin), which is highly relevant since it informs on the water depletion dynamics under stress.

Investigation of multiple interspecific reproductive barriers in Solanum section Lycopersicon
, 2016 Interspecific reproductive barriers (IRBs) act to prevent hybridization between close relatives and provide insight on how species maintain their integrity in nature. Wild tomato species (Solanum Section. Lycopersicon) are useful for studying IRBs.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Forward genetics has been instrumental in identifying genes underlying desirable traits, yet its application to polyploid plants, many of which are key agricultural crops, remains challenging due to their genomic complexity. Therefore, we developed BenthMap, a bulk segregant analysis platform for high‐throughput trait mapping and gene ...

Somatic hybridization between Lycopersicon esculentum and Solanum tuberosum
This thesis describes an analysis of the possibilities and limitations of asymmetric somatic hybridization between tomato and potato. For this, nitrate reductase-deficient tomato mutants were isolated and characterized. It was shown that two of these mutations could be used as selectable markers in somatic hybridization experiments with potato ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ethylene plays a crucial role in fruit ripening and is perceived by specialised receptor proteins embedded in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. As an ethylene antagonist, 1‐methylcyclopropene (1‐MCP) binds to these receptors and delays papaya ripening, but improper use can cause ripening disorders.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT High temperature has posed significant challenges to global agriculture, markedly leading to reduced fertility and yield losses in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). Therefore, thermotolerance‐conferring genes and loci are needed to further improve cultivated tomatoes.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Hydrogen gas (H2) effectively alleviates abiotic stress in horticultural plants. Protein S‐nitrosylation, a key post‐translational modification, serves as a critical mechanism for nitric oxide (NO) to exert its biological function under adverse conditions.
