Background It has been shown that a large variation is present and exploitable from wild
Solanum species but most of it is still untapped. Considering the thousands of Solanum …

Naturally occurring variation among wild relatives of cultivated crops is an under-exploited
resource in plant breeding. Here, I argue that exotic libraries, which consist of marker …

The cultivated tomato, Lycopersicon esculentum, is the second most consumed vegetable
worldwide and a well‐studied crop species in terms of genetics, genomics, and breeding. It …

Advances in next-generation sequencing and genotyping technologies have enabled
generation of large-scale genomic resources such as molecular markers, transcript reads …

In this paper, a number of strategies to overcome the deleterious effects of salinity on plants
will be reviewed; these strategies include using molecular markers and genetic …

To explore natural biodiversity we developed and examined introgression lines (ILs)
containing chromosome segments of wild species (Solanum pennellii) in the background of …

The joint analysis of genotype marker segregation and phenotypic values of individuals or
lines enables the detection and location of loci affecting quantitative traits (QTL). The …

Advanced backcross QTL (AB-QTL) analysis was used to identify quantitative trait loci
(QTLs) for yield and yield components in a BC 2 F 2 population derived from a cross …

The cuticle covering plants' aerial surfaces is a unique structure that plays a key role in
organ development and protection against diverse stress conditions. A detailed analysis of …

Abstract A BC 2 F 2 population developed from an interspecific cross between Oryza sativa
(cv IR64) and O. rufipogon (IRGC 105491) was used in an advanced backcross QTL …
