A comprehensive mutant population is a basic resource for exploring gene function. We developed an isogenic tomato 'mutation library' in the genetic background of the inbred variety M82. A total of 13 000 M(2) families, derived from EMS (ethyl methane sulfonate) and fast-neutron mutagenesis, were visually phenotyped in the field and categorized into a morphological catalog that includes 15 primary and 48...
