Abstract excerpt
In an effort to better understand the dramatic differences in vegetative and floral morphology that differentiate species within the genus Lycopersicon, quantitative trait loci (QTL) for leaflet and perianth size and shape characters were mapped in an interspecific F2 population of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum x L. pennellii). Thirty-six highly significant (P < or = 0.001) QTL were associated with 18 separate...
