Higher cytokinin levels give Dutch tomatoes an edge
Greater secondary xylem development in Dutch cultivars may be the source of their lead over Japanese cultivars in fresh fruit weight.
How Important Is Leaf Realism in Functional-Structural Plant Modelling?
Successive leaflets within the same tomato compound leaf are “cellularly” the same
Can a tomato hear, and what would it listen to?
Over Christmas, a couple of papers came out that suggest plants can respond to airborne sound waves. The findings challenge many ideas about how plants respond to sound.
Effects of changes in leaf properties mediated by methyl jasmonate (MeJA) on foliar absorption of Zn, Mn, and Fe
This study highlights the potential importance of the combined thickness of the cuticle and epidermal cell wall in the absorption of foliar-applied nutrients.
Ethylene perception determines tomato plant growth induction by soil bacteria
Relative fructose content and tomato susceptibility to Botrytis cinerea
Tomato responses to resistance inducers and a biotrophic pathogen
Effects of environmental factors on dark-adapted photosynthetic induction
Iron homeostasis in tomato plants
SlbHLH068, a putative transcription factor, is involved in iron homeostasis in tomato via an interaction with FER.
Return of the Killer Tomatoes
Diffuse light and increased yield in tomato
Plants acclimate to a high level of diffuse light by gaining a higher photosynthetic capacity of leaves in the middle of the crop & a higher leaf area index
