Project description:In the present study, we demonstrated that application of CaCl2 to ‘Micro Tom’ tomato fruit (mature green stage) delayed fruit senescence and mature.
Project description:In this study, we explored the metabolome and transcriptome of the ripe fruit in nine landrace accessions representing the seven genetic groups and compared them to the mature fruit of the wild progenitor S. pimpinellifolium. The goal is to shed light in understanding the factors responsible for acquiring tomato fruit quality (taste and flavour) at molecular level during the domestication process.
Project description:We sequenced mRNA from immature green (15 days after anthesis) and red (Breaker+10 days) tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit tissues from plants over-expressing SlGLK1 and SlGLK2 and from control plants 'M82' to compare gene expression levels between transgenic fruit and the control. Note: Samples in SRA were assigned the same sample accession. This is incorrect as there are different samples, hence “Source Name” was replaced with new values. Comment[ENA_SAMPLE] contains the original SRA sample accessions.
Project description:Transcriptome analysis of 7 tissues of commercial tomato (S. lycopersicum cv MoneyMaker) and its wild red-fruited ancestor (S. pimpinellifolium LA0722) genotypes performed to assess expression level of tomato transcriptome and to aid whole genome annotation. Sequencing of fruit at 3 different developmental stages will help to assess gene regulation through ripening.
