Abstract excerpt
Fruits of tomato plants carrying the high pigment-1 mutations hp-1 and hp-1(w) are characterized by an increased number of plastids coupled with enhanced levels of functional metabolites. Unfortunately, hp-1 mutant plants are also typified by light-dependent retardation in seedling and whole-plant growth and development, which limits their cultivation. These mutations were mapped to the gene encoding UV-DAMAGED...
