Abstract excerpt
Lycopersicon esculentum accessions bearing fasciated (multiloculed) fruit were characterized based on their flower organ and locule number phenotypes. Greenhouse and field evaluations indicate that increases in locule number are associated with increases in the number of other floral organs (e.g., sepals, petals, stamens) in all stocks. F1 complementation, F2 segregation analysis, and genetic mapping indicate...
