However, little information is available on its phenolic composition and bioactive properties. Four pepino varieties (37-A, El Camino, Puzol, and Valencia) and one accession (E-7) of its close wild relative S. caripense were characterized by HPLC-DAD-MSn/ESI. Twenty-four hydroxycinnamic acid derivatives were detected (5 to 16 compounds per variety or accession), with differences of more than two-fold for their total content among the materials studied. -

The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School Intercollege Graduate Degree Program in Genetics GENETIC CHARACTERIZATION AND MAPPING OF LATE BLIGHT RESISTANCE GENES IN THE WILD TOMATO ACCESSIONS PI 163245 AND PI 224710 A Dissertation in Genetics by Erik William Ohlson © 2015 Erik William Ohlson Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2015 ii The dissertation of Erik William Ohlson was reviewed and approved* by the following: Majid R. Foolad Professor of Plant Genetics Dissertation Advisor David R. Huff Professor of Turfgrass Breeding and Genetics Chair of Committee Surinder Chopra Professor of Maize Genetics Beth K. Gugino Associate Professor of Vegetable Pathology Timothy W. McNellis Associate Professor of Plant Pathology Yinong Yang Associate Professor of Plant Pathology Robert F. Paulson Professor of Veterinary and Biomedical Sciences Chair of the Intercollege Graduate Degree Program in Genetics *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. iii ABSTRACT Late blight (LB), caused by the oomycete Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) de Bary is one of the most destructive diseases of tomato and potato worldwide. Development of fungicide resistant and more aggressive P. infestans clonal lineages has emphasized the importance of discovering and incorporating new genetic resistance in tomato cultivars. Although the cultivated tomato, Solanum lycopersicum L., contains limited genetic diversity, several related wild species of tomato are suitable for identification of new desirable traits. Previously, 67 S. pimpinellifolium accessions were screened for LB resistance in field, greenhouse and detached leaflet trials and 12 accessions with strong resistance to LB were identified. In this dissertation, two resistant accessions, PI 163245 and PI 224710, were selected for further genetic characterization. -

Report of the Tomato Genetics Cooperative
Report of the Tomato Genetics Cooperative Volume 57 September 2007 THIS PAGE IS INTENTIONALLY BLANK Report of the Tomato Genetics Cooperative Number 57- September 2007 University of Florida Gulf Coast Research and Education Center 14625 CR 672 Wimauma, FL 33598 USA Foreword The Tomato Genetics Cooperative, initiated in 1951, is a group of researchers who share and interest in tomato genetics, and who have organized informally for the purpose of exchanging information, germplasm, and genetic stocks. The Report of the Tomato Genetics Cooperative is published annually and contains reports of work in progress by members, announcements and updates on linkage maps and materials available. The research reports include work on diverse topics such as new traits or mutants isolated, new cultivars or germplasm developed, interspecific transfer of traits, studies of gene function or control or tissue culture. Relevant work on the Solanaceous species is encouraged as well. Paid memberships currently stand at approximately 121 from 21 countries. Requests for membership (per year) US$20 to addresses in the US and US$25 if shipped to addresses outside of the United States should be sent to Dr. J.W. Scott, [email protected]. Please send only checks or money orders. Make checks payable to the University of Florida. We are sorry but we are NOT able to accept cash or credit cards. Cover.

Shotgun sequencing at low genome coverage is a common approach for isolating high-copy DNA, such as the plastid or mitochondrial genomes, and ribosomal DNA. These sequence data, however, are also rich in repetitive elements that are often discarded. Such data include a variety of repeats present throughout the nuclear genome in high copy number. It has recently been shown that the abundance of repetitive elements has phylogenetic signal and can be used as a continuous character to infer tree topologies. In the present study, we evaluate repetitive DNA data in tomatoes (Solanum section Lycopersicon)to explore how they perform at the inter- and intraspecific levels, utilizing the available data from the 100 Tomato Genome Sequencing Consortium. -
