Leaf shape is mutable, changing in ways modulated by both development and environment within genotypes. A complete model of leaf phenotype would incorporate the changes during juvenile-to-adult phase transitions ontogeny each leaf. Here, we provide a morphometric description >33,000 leaflets from set tomato (Solanum spp) introgression lines grown under controlled conditions. We first compare these leaves, arising vegetative development, with >11,000 previously published field setting wild...
Variation in gene expression, addition to sequence polymorphisms, is known influence developmental, physiological, and metabolic traits plants. Genetic mapping populations have facilitated identification of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL), the genetic determinants variation patterns. We used an introgression population developed from wild desert-adapted Solanum pennellii domesticated tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) identify basis transcript level variation. established effect each on...
Light is an essential resource for photosynthesis. Limitation of light by shade from plant neighbors can induce a competition program known as the avoidance response (SAR), thereby altering growth and development sake survival. Natural genetic variation in SAR found plants adapted to distinct environments, including domesticated tomato Solanum lycopersicum its wild relative pennellii. QTL mapping was used examine between these two species. We organ specific responses elongation stem petiole,...
<abstract> <b>Abstract.</b> Accurate full 3D reconstruction of plants is a crucial step in phenotyping the canopy geometry living to measure features, such as plant height, volume, leaf count, size, and internode distance. In this work, an in-field, system for described. The utilized simultaneous, multi-view, high-resolution color digital imagery true crop. cameras were mounted on arc-shaped superstructure organized into 16 stereo pairs four separate arcs. study, comparison...
