Journal ArticleDOI

The tomato genome sequence provides insights into fleshy fruit evolution

Shusei Sato, +323 more
- 31 May 2012 - 
TL;DR: A high-quality genome sequence of domesticated tomato is presented, a draft sequence of its closest wild relative, Solanum pimpinellifolium, is compared, and the two tomato genomes are compared to each other and to the potato genome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome sequence and analysis of the tuber crop potato.

Xun Xu, +96 more
- 10 Jul 2011 - 
TL;DR: The potato genome sequence provides a platform for genetic improvement of this vital crop and predicts 39,031 protein-coding genes and presents evidence for at least two genome duplication events indicative of a palaeopolyploid origin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Visualization of differential gene expression using a novel method of RNA fingerprinting based on AFLP : Analysis of gene expression during potato tuber development

TL;DR: The results indicate that cDNA-AFLP is a broadly applicable technology for identifying developmentally regulated genes and rapid and simple verification of band identity may be achieved.
Journal ArticleDOI

If homogalacturonan were a side chain of rhamnogalacturonan I. Implications for cell wall architecture

TL;DR: Pectin, an important cell wall component of dicotyledonous plants, is probably the most complex macromolecule in nature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Societal Costs of Late Blight in Potato and Prospects of Durable Resistance Through Cisgenic Modification

TL;DR: A case arguing for an updating and refinement of these rules in order to place cisgenic GM-crops in another class of GM-plants as has been done in the past with (induced) mutation breeding and the use of protoplast fusion between crossable species is presented.
