The atv (atroviolacium) locus, derived from the wild tomato species Solanum cheesmaniae, has been shown to enhance anthocyanin pigmentation in tomato fruit when it co-exists with either the Aft (Anthocyanin fruit) or the Abg (Aubergine) locus. In the present study, the atv locus was fine-mapped to an approximately 5.0-kb interval on chromosome 7. A putative R3 MYB repressor was identified in this interval and is hereby desi ...[more]
