TL;DR: A recombinant inbred line (RIL) population was developed from an intraspecific cross between a cherry tomato line with a good overall aroma intensity and an inbredline with a common taste but with bigger fruits, in order to understand the genetic control of this characteristic.

TL;DR: The organoleptic quality of tomato fruit involves a set of attributes (flavour, aroma, texture) that can be evaluated either by sensory analyses or by instrumental measures, and the relationships between instrumental measures and sensory traits were analysed with regard to the QTL map.

TL;DR: Co-localizations between QTLs for leaf yellowing, redness and nitrogen use efficiency indicate complex interconnected pathways involved in both nitrogen management and senescence- and stress-related processes.

TL;DR: It is shown that variation in sulfate content between wild Arabidopsis thaliana accessions Bay-0 and Shahdara is controlled by a major quantitative trait locus that results in a strong interaction with nitrogen availability in the soil.

TL;DR: Despite the intraspecific origin of this map, it did not show any increase in length when compared to the high-density interspecific map of tomato, and was compared to other published interspecific maps of tomato.
