Acquired tolerance of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum cv. Micro‐Tom) plants to cadmium‐induced stress
The effects of varying concentrations of cadmium (Cd) on the development of Lycopersicon esculentum cv. Micro-Tom (MT) plants were investigated after 40 days (vegetative growth) and 95 days (fruit…

De novo domestication of wild tomato using genome editing
TLDR
It is reported that editing of six loci that are important for yield and productivity in present-day tomato crop lines enabled de novo domestication of wild Solanum pimpinellifolium, paving the way for molecular breeding programs to exploit the genetic diversity present in wild plants.

Inhibition of Auxin Transport from the Ovary or from the Apical Shoot Induces Parthenocarpic Fruit-Set in Tomato Mediated by Gibberellins1[C][W]
TLDR
It is suggested that auxin can have opposing effects on fruit-set, either inducing (when accumulated in the ovary) or repressing (when transported from the apical shoot) that process, and that GAs act as mediators in both cases.

Shoot regeneration capacity from roots and transgenic hairy roots of tomato cultivars and wild related species
TLDR
The data point to the possibility of the use of A. rhizogenes, combined with regenerating Lycopersicon genotypes, in a very simple protocol, based on genetic capacity instead of special procedures for regeneration, to produce transgenic tomato plants expressing rol genes, as well as, genes present in binary vectors.

Bioactivity of chemically transformed humic matter from vermicompost on plant root growth.
TLDR
It is suggested that the hydrophobic domain can preserve bioactive molecules such as auxins in the humic matter and release bioactive compounds from humic aggregates in contact with root-exuded organic acids.

Comprehensive Profiling of Ethylene Response Factor Expression Identifies Ripening-Associated ERF Genes and Their Link to Key Regulators of Fruit Ripening in Tomato1[OPEN]
TLDR
A comprehensive expression profiling of tomato ERFs in wild-type and tomato ripening-impaired tomato mutants is presented, indicating that out of the 77 ERFs present in the tomato genome, 27 show enhanced expression at the onset of ripening while 28 display a ripens-associated decrease in expression, suggesting that different ERFs may have contrasting roles in fruit ripening.

microRNA156-targeted SPL/SBP box transcription factors regulate tomato ovary and fruit development.
TLDR
Observations suggest that the miR156 node is involved in maintenance of the meristematic state of ovary tissues, thereby controlling initial steps of fleshy fruit development and determinacy.

Selection of tomato plant families using characters related to water deficit resistance
TLDR
Evaluated parameters related to water deficit in 20 F 3 RC 1 families of tomato plant derived from the crossing with a (WELL) genotype originated from a drought resistant species, S. pennellii, highlighted for presenting low incidence of blossom-end rot and higher relative water content in leaves.
