“…Progress has been made in the delimitation of some species, the addition of new species (Baral and Bosland, 2004;Barboza, 2011;Barboza and Bianchetti, 2005;Barboza et al, 2011;Bosland and Gonz alez, 2000;Carrizo García et al, 2013;Nee et al, 2006), and the clarification of some nomenclatural problems (Barboza, 2011;Knapp et al, 2015). Molecular phylogenetic analyses have contributed to the understanding of species relationships (Jarret and Dang, 2004;Walsh and Hoot, 2001).…”

“…Similarly, in the cultivar Belize Sweet, the presence of a 5-bp insertion (TGGGC) in the pAmt gene led to a frameshift mutation that inhibited capsaicinoid biosynthesis (Tanaka et al, 2010b). Park et al (2015) reported a 12-bp deletion (TCTGCTGGTCTC) in exon seven, and a SNP in exon 14 Barboza, 2011;Barboza and Bianchetti, 2005;Barboza et al, 2011;Bianchetti 1996;Bianchetti et al, 1999;Moscone et al, 2007;Nee et al, 2006;Pozzobon et al, 2006. y Scaldaferro et al, 2006Scaldaferro et al, , 2016 x # = synteny of 5S and 45S sites; p = short arm, q = long arm. w Moscone et al, 2003. v Belletti et al, 1998. u This publication.…”

Pepper (Capsicum L.) is a major vegetable and spice crop worldwide. Global production of both fresh and dried fruit continues to increase steadily in terms of area harvested and yield. Various topics are addressed in this review, including recent additions to and clarification of Capsicum taxonomy, genetic resources of Capsicum, cytogenetic studies, the current status of our understanding of the mechanisms affecting the biosynthesis of capsaicinoids, the use of gene mutations to elucidate carotenoid biosynthetic pathways and their regulation, and recent advances in whole-genome sequencing and assembly.

Biodiversity of Food Species of the Solanaceae Family: A Preliminary Taxonomic Inventory of Subfamily Solanoideae

Over the last fifty years there has been a continual reduction in horticultural and agricultural biodiversity of nutritionally important plants, including those of the Solanaceae family. To add to this, the broad range of traditional crops, previously grown on a sustainable scale in some parts of the world, has been replaced by a narrow range of major crops grown as large-scale monocultures. In order to counteract this trend, and to help maintain a broad wealth of genetic resources, conservation is essential. This, in turn, helps to safeguard food security. A taxonomic inventory, covering the diversity of species in a plant group, is an important first step in conservation. The Solanaceae is one of the major plant families providing food species. A survey of the biodiversity, ethnobotany and taxonomy of subfamily Solanoideae was undertaken and is presented here as an inventory of food species. Fifteen genera provide species that are utilised for food across the world. Of these, only four genera contain economically significant cultivated food cropspecies. The majority of these are in the genus Solanum, whilst Capsicum, Physalis and Lycium contribute the remainder of cultivated crop species. These genera and others also comprise species that are semi-cultivated, tolerated as useful weeds, or gathered from the wild.

“…As outlined above, the pungent (hot) flavor of chili fruit is due to capsaicinoids, which are produced exclusively in this genus (Levey et al 2007). In addition to capsaicinoids, chilies are also defended by other chemical (Harborne 1986;Andersson 1999) and structural traits (Drummond 1986;Barboza 2011), which likely play adaptive defensive roles. However, of these defenses, the ecological significance of pungency is currently the best understood so we focus on it here.…”

To understand the origin, history, and function, of natural biological variation, from nucleotide to community levels, is a fundamental promise of ecological genomics. The most fruitful systems for this work are those that possess both ecological and genomic resources. Such systems provide an opportunity to precisely dissect genetic and developmental mechanisms, and to connect genotypes to phenotypes, as well as to directly demonstrate the ecological and evolutionary relevance of this phenotypic variation. Here we synthesize findings emerging from our efforts to understand two fundamental evolutionary processes - speciation and adaptation - using ecological genomics approaches. Many of these studies have been in the wild tomato clade (Solanum section Lycopersicon), a group that has both exceptional diversity and genomic tools. We also highlight the expanding taxonomic reach of this work, especially in two genera - Capsicum and Jaltomata - that are closely related to Solanum. Parallel approaches in these ecologically and reproductively diverse clades enable us to examine novel questions and traits that are not captured within Solanum, while leveraging the power of comparative studies to understand shared ecological and evolutionary patterns. By synthesizing findings from phenotypic, ecophysiological, genetic, and comparative perspectives, our ultimate goal is to understand the complex mechanistic and evolutionary contributions to the formation of new traits and species diversity.
