Light regulates tomato fruit metabolome via SlDML2‐mediated global DNA demethylation
Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.In tomato growth and development, red and blue light signals are captured by the photoreceptors phyB2 and CRY1a, which kickstart tomato fruit ripening by activating HY5, which activates DNA demethylation via DML2 to trigger a metabolic and ripening transformation cascade within the tomato.

Development of interspecific Solanum lycopersicum and screening for Tospovirus resistance
Saudi Journal of Biological Sciences, 2015 Tospovirus has emerged as a serious viral pathogen for several crops including tomato. The tomato production is being severely affected worldwide by Tospovirus. Some reports have been published about the association of plant virus and development of human disease either by direct or indirect consumption.

Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Seed production on native seed farms has increased to meet the rising demand for plant material for restoration. Although these propagation efforts are necessary for restoration, cultivating wild populations may also result in unintentional selection and elicit evolutionary changes that mimic crop domestication, essentially turning these ...

The Evolutionary Dynamics of Genetic Mutational Load Throughout Tomato Domestication History
Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Understanding the impact of domestication on deleterious mutations has fascinated evolutionary biologists and breeders alike. A ‘cost of domestication’ has been reported for some organisms through accumulation of gene disruptions or radical amino acid changes.

Fruit function beyond dispersal: effect of fruit decomposition on the plant microbiome assembly
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary The evolutionary role of fruits has primarily been linked to seed dispersal. However, their influence on the soil and plant microbiomes subsequent to their decomposition has received no attention. We hypothesized that fruit decomposition alters the soil microbiome, and consequently the plant microbiome and performance.
