Agronomic Biofortification with Selenium in Tomato Crops (Solanum lycopersicon L. Mill) [PDF]
Biofortification aims to increase the concentration of bioavailable elements in crops, to increase their nutritional quality. Selenium is a trace element of great impact on the antioxidant metabolism of plants and its accumulation is poor in species such

Genetic Diversity Studies in Tomato (Solanum lycopersicon L.)
Tomato (2n=24) is an important crop in the world belongs to the family Solanaceae which ranks next to potato in importance. Genetic variability is essential for first step of plant breeding for crop improvement which is immediately available from ...

Analysis of Tospovirus resistance factors in Solanum (section Lycopersicon) accessions
The intensive and uninterrupted tomato cultivation has favored the establishment of several diseases that affect fruit yield and quality. Genetic resistance is the best method to control the disease called 'vira-cabeça' (caused by distinct species of the

SOMACLONAL VARIATION IN SOLANUM AND LYCOPERSICON GENOTYPES. [PDF]
The objective of this study was to investigate the chromosomal and genotypic variation in regenerated plants of Solarium and Lycopersicon. Calli of Lycopersicon peruvianum genotypes PI199380, PI126345, PI251301, and LA1373, along with Solanum ptycanthum were transferred onto media consisting of MS salts with Gamborg vitamins.
