“…Grati and Grati (1983) used the following staining technique. Such numbering scheme was recognized as the standard for tomato chromosome set and adopted for numbering of linkage groups (Barton et al 1955). Differentiation of the material was made in a drop of concentrated chloral hydrate, controlling it under microscope.…”

“…A radium-induced mutant was detected by Lindstrom (1933). Subsequently, a large number of mutant genes affecting male meiosis at various stages (Table 4.1) were discovered and described by Roever (1948), Barton et al (1955), Rick and Butler (1956), Lesley and Lesley (1958), Clayberg et al (1960), Rick (1966Rick ( , 1980a, Rick and Boynton (1967), Yamakawa (1968), Andrasfalvy (1969Andrasfalvy ( , 1974, Zamir et al (1980Zamir et al ( , 1981a, Nash et al (1985), Potaczek and Kubicki (1986), Stevens and Rick (1986), Kaul (1988), Sawhney and Bhadula (1987) and Kaul and Nirmala (1989).

“…We therefore designate loci by numbers, in approximate chronological order. Alleles are distinguished by superscripts, those for migratory derivations by number, the null alleles by n. In conformity with rules for tomato genetics nomenclature (6,7), alleles of the standard genotype are designated "+" applied as a superscript or simply substituted for the locus symbol.…”

The banding patterns of certain anodal peroxidase variants of red-fruited tomato species are governed by alleles at four loci-two alleles per locus. Alleles at three loci code for modified enzyme migration patterns and are codominant in heterozygotes; those at the fourth locus code for presence or absence of a band. No evidence of linkage was detected in preliminary tests between four of the six possible combinations of loci. All variant alleles-i.e., those not represented in the standard genotype of Lycopersicon esculentum-exist in the wild L. pimpinellifolium from coastal Peru; all but Prx-3" are also known in L. esculentum from the sympatric region but are rare or absent elsewhere. Between the distributions of alleles of Prx-1 and those of Ge, the gamete-eliminator locus, a significant association exists, which probably does not owe to genetic linkage. The tendency of alleles of Prx loci, as well as those of cm, Ge, h, and Od, to be shared between wild and cultivated taxa in the sympatric region but seldom elsewhere, in addition to published correlated evidence, suggests that the wild alleles tend to substitute in cultivated forms as a result of introgression. In respect to the number of common alleles, cultivated tomatoes more closely resemble the wild L. esculentum var. cerasiforme than L. pimpineUifolium.The analysis of allozymic polymorphisms in higher plants by means of gel electrophoresis has greatly expedited research in population genetics and has provided a tool useful for tracing phylogenetic relationships. The many applications of the latter type have been reviewed recently (1).Many mutations affecting gross morphology are known in the cultivated tomato, Lycopersicon esculentum Mill., (esc), and the very closely allied L. pimpinellifolium (Jusl.) Mill., (pim), yet none characterize these species or their subspecific taxa and few assist in tracing phylogenies. Such variant alleles as c, f, r, and y are found in wild forms and in cultivars, but their sporadic appearance has little or no phylogenetic significance. For this reason we initiated a search for allozymes in the tomato species.Marked quantitative differences in certain peroxidases were found to be associated with the dX mutant (2), but qualitative differences were not found.
