Genetic analysis of organoleptic quality in fresh market tomato. 1. Mapping QTLs for physical and chemical traits

Improving organoleptic quality is an important but complex goal for fresh market tomato breeders. A total of 26 traits involved in organoleptic quality variation were evaluated, in order to understand the genetic control of this characteristic. A recombinant inbred line (RIL) population was developed from an intraspecific cross between a cherry tomato line with a good overall aroma intensity and an inbred line with a common taste but with bigger fruits. Physical traits included fruit weight, diameter, color (L,a,b), firmness and elasticity. Chemical traits were dry matter weight, titratable acidity, pH, and the contents of soluble solids, sugars, lycopene, carotene and 12 aroma volatiles. R…

QTLs for organoleptic quality in fresh market tomato

The organoleptic quality of tomato fruit is determined by many characters. Therefore, plant breeders often find difficulties to improve such a characteristic. A program of QTL detection for physical, chemical and sensorial traits has been achieved, in order to understand the genetic determinism of tomato organoleptic quality. One hundred and forty-four recombinant inbred lines (RILs), derived from an intraspecific cross, were analyzed with segregating molecular markers. An almost saturated map was constructed with RFLP, AFLP and RAPD marker. The RILs were also evaluated for fruit chemical (sugar, pigment and acid contents) and physical traits (color, firmness and fruit size). These analyses…
