14 Αυγ 2015 · From Flower to Fruit: Study Reveals Details of Tomato Formation. Many favorite fall harvest foods, like pumpkins and squash, once started out as the ovary of a flower, and a new study by researchers at Boyce Thompson Institute reveals just how complicated that transformation process can be.
31 Μαΐ 2023 · The leaf blade, also known as the lamina, is the leaf’s main, flat, expanded portion. Tomato leaf blades are typically broad, ovate, or lanceolate in shape, with a smooth margin. The size and shape of the leaf blade may vary depending on the tomato variety. Tomato leaves have a network of veins running through the leaf blade (Figure 3).
The tomato fruit is globular or ovoid. Botanically, the fruit exhibits all of the common characteristics of berries; a simple fleshy fruit that encloses its seed in the pulp. The outer skin is a thin and fleshy tissue that comprises the remainder of the fruit wall as well as the placenta.
The female organs,comprised of stigma, style, and ovary, collectively are called the pistil. The male organs consist of the anther and filament and are collectively called the stamen. The tomato flowers of most commercial cultivars are self pollenating (Ho and Hewitt 1986).
11 Ιουν 2004 · These combined results suggest that the evolution of tomato size and shape from the small, round fruit of wild tomatoes was attributable to mutations at only a few loci and that the nine loci described here were among the most significant contributors.
1 Ιαν 2013 · In case of tomato, some important phenotypic characters are shape, size, colour and position of fruit; number, position and shape of leaves or architecture of plant. In this chapter, the importance of tomato phenotyping for crop improvement has been discussed.
2 Οκτ 2018 · Abstract. Fruit size and shape are the primary criteria for domestication and improvement of tomato. The varying sizes and shapes of tomato fruit further signify their importance as agronomic traits. Here, we characterized a tomato mutant, smaller fruit (sf), which bears relatively small and ovoid fruits compared with the large and flat fruits ...
