The use of liquid organic fertilizer made from livestock manure is an attempt to provide tomato plants with P and Zn nutrients. This research aimed assess the availability Zn, best growth, yield using based on animal manure. A completely randomized design a two-factor treatment was used set up this study. first aspect three different kinds livestock-based fertilizers—chicken, goat, cow dung. se...

We present a multilocus sequencing study to assess patterns of polymorphism and divergence in the closely related wild tomato species, Solanum peruvianum and S. chilense (Solanum section Lycopersicon, Solanaceae). The data set comprises seven mapped nuclear loci (approximately 9.3 kb of analyzed sequence across loci) and four local population samples per species that cover much of the species' ...

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L., Solanaceae) is an excellent model plant for genomic research of solanaceous plants, as well as for studying the development, ripening, and metabolism of fruit. In 2003, the International Solanaceae Project (SOL, www.sgn.cornell.edu ) was initiated by members from more than 30 countries, and the tomato genome-sequencing project is currently underway. Genome seque...

Wild tomatoes are a valuable source of disease resistance germplasm for tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) breeders. Many species are known to possess a certain degree of resistance against certain pathogens; however, evolution of resistance traits is yet poorly understood. For some species, like Solanum chilense, both differences in habitat and within species genetic diversity are very large. Here ...

Bifunctional nuclease TBN1 from Solanum lycopersicum red tomato belongs to plant nuclease I group. TBN1 is a relatively small glycoprotein and shows considerable activity in cell apoptosis, tissue differentiation and vascular system development. Therefore detailed structural study of this enzyme can lead to new ways of cancer and bacterial disease treatment. Heterologous expression of the enzym...

The influences of flax lignin and phenolic compounds obtained from spruce bark on the development of Lycopersicon esculentum plantlets were evaluated. Depending on the applied treatment and the concentrations used, the natural aromatic compounds had stimulatory effects on the germination capacity and the plantlets height and leaf area. The influence of lignin on Lycopersicon esculentum was lowe...

A study was conducted to determine the effects of liquid organic fertilizers as well boron (B) application on growth Solanum Lycopersicon (tomato) in soilless culture media which using cocopeat media. There were 16 treatments with 5 replications, including Controls (unapplied and AB fertilizer), (fish amino acid [FAA] shrimp extract [SE]) B application. Each experiment carried out for 8 weeks a...

Peralta, 1.E. & D. M. Spooner. 2000. Classification of wild tomatoes: a review. Kurtziana 28 (I): 45-54. .. Wild tomatoes are native to western South America. The generic status of wild tomatoes within the Solanaceae has been controversial since the eighteen century. Linnaeus in 1753 placed tomatoes in Solanum while Miller, a contemporary ofLinnaeus, classified tomatoes in a new genus Lycopersi...
