Fruit size in relation to competition for resources: A common model shared by two species and several genotypes grown under contrasted carbohydrate l…
2012
International audience; Fruit size is one important criterion of fruit external quality affecting consumer acceptance. The effects of seed number on fruit size in two fleshy fruits, grape and tomato, of different genotypes and grown under distinct carbohydrate availability levels were analyzed with a model. The two-parameter model described within-fruit resource competition and was able to well represent the commonly observed decrease in fresh weight per seed along with the increase in number of seeds, regardless of species, genotypes, and carbohydrate levels that were evaluated in this study. However, carbohydrate levels largely modified the correlation between seed number and fresh weight…
Genomic variation in tomato, from wild ancestors to contemporary breeding accessions
2015
[EN] Background: Domestication modifies the genomic variation of species. Quantifying this variation provides insights into the domestication process, facilitates the management of resources used by breeders and germplasm centers, and enables the design of experiments to associate traits with genes. We described and analyzed the genetic diversity of 1,008 tomato accessions including Solanum lycopersicum var. lycopersicum (SLL), S. lycopersicum var. cerasiforme (SLC), and S. pimpinellifolium (SP) that were genotyped using 7,720 SNPs. Additionally, we explored the allelic frequency of six loci affecting fruit weight and shape to infer patterns of selection. Results: Our results revealed a pat…
Genetic analysis of organoleptic quality in fresh market tomato. 1. Mapping QTLs for physical and chemical traits
2001
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
1998
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…
Genetic analysis of organoleptic quality in fresh market tomato. 2. Mapping QTLs for sensory attributes
2001
The organoleptic quality of fresh market tomato can be described by a set of attributes, including fruit appearance, taste, aroma and texture. Sensory analysis is the most-valid method to study organoleptic characteristics, particularly aroma and texture. A range of 144 recombinant inbred lines of tomato derived from a cross between a cherry tomato line and a large-fruited line was evaluated by descriptive sensory profiling. Taste was analyzed through sweetness and sourness, and aroma was analyzed through the overall aroma intensity, together with candy, lemon, citrus-fruit and pharmaceutical aroma. Texture was characterized by firmness, meltiness, mealiness, juiciness and difficulty to swa…

European traditional tomatoes galore: a result of farmers' selection of a few diversity-rich loci
2022
A comprehensive collection of 1254 tomato accessions, corresponding to European traditional and modern varieties, early domesticated varieties, and wild relatives, was analyzed by genotyping by sequencing. A continuous genetic gradient between the traditional and modern varieties was observed. European traditional tomatoes displayed very low genetic diversity, with only 298 polymorphic loci (95% threshold) out of 64 943 total variants. European traditional tomatoes could be classified into several genetic groups. Two main clusters consisting of Spanish and Italian accessions showed higher genetic diversity than the remaining varieties, suggesting that these regions might be independent seco…
