Physicochemical and sensory properties of tree tomato (Cyphomandra betacea (Cav.) Sendtner) drink [PDF]
The aim of the present study was to investigate on the physicochemical properties of the tree tomato drink, its sensory properties and shelf-life. Three tree tomato drink treatments were obtained with three levels of dilution (w/v) of tree tomato paste: 1:1; 1:2 and 1:3 respectively for treatments T1, T2 and T3.

ps2, the gene responsible for functional sterility in tomato, due to non-dehiscent anthers, is the result of a mutation in a novel polygalacturonase gene [PDF]
The recessive mutation ps-2, which appeared spontaneously in tomato, confers functional male sterility due to non-dehiscent anthers. In this study, we isolated and characterized the PS-2 gene.

Modelling the effects of osmotic stress on tomato fruit development [PDF]
Whereas most high-tech tomato greenhouses focus primarily on high production yields, consumers prefer a higher quality product. Dry matter content is one of the key factors determining fruit quality, and is known to be substantially influenced by ...

Identification of ABF/AREB gene family in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) and functional analysis of ABF/AREB in response to ABA and abiotic stresses [PDF]
Abscisic acid (ABA) is a plant hormone that plays an important regulatory role in plant growth and stress response. The AREB (ABA-responsive element binding protein)/ABF (ABRE-binding factor) are important ABA-signaling components that participate in ...
