Influence of phytohormones on seed germination of Solanum linnaeanum [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 The aim of this study was to determine the germination ability and seedling growth of the apple of Sodom by soaking in water, gibberellin (GA3), naphthylacetic acid (NAA), and salicylic acid (SA), separately. The findings showed that NAA at 50 mgL-1 produced superior germination (77.78%), germination speed (1.43 seeds/time interval), hypocotyl length ...

Investigating postharvest chilling injury in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) fruit using magnetic resonance imaging and 5-azacytidine, a hypomethylation agent [PDF]
, 2020 Tomato, like most species from tropical and subtropical regions, exhibits postharvest chilling injury (PCI) when stored at low temperatures. Because of its economic importance and the functional genomics tools available, we used tomato to investigate ...

Comparative Analysis of Plastid Genomes Using Pangenome Research ToolKit (PGR-TK) [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Plastid genomes (plastomes) of angiosperms are of great interest among biologists. High-throughput sequencing is making many such genomes accessible, increasing the need for tools to perform rapid comparative analysis. This exploratory analysis investigates whether the Pangenome Research Tool Kit (PGR-TK) is suitable for analyzing plastomes.

Effect of stem age on the response of stem diameter variations to plant water status in tomato [PDF]
, 2012 Plant water status plays a major role in glasshouse cultivation of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.). New climate control technologies alter the glasshouse climate and make it less dependent on solar radiation.

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.

Analysis of genetic diversity and genome relationships of four eggplant species (Solanum melongena L) using RAPD markers [PDF]
, 2018 Solanum melongena (eggplant) is one of the diversity of the Solanum family which is grown and widely spread in Indonesia and widely used by the community. This research explored the genetic diversity of four local Indonesian eggplant species namely leuca, tekokak, gelatik and kopek by using RAPD (Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA).
