Shusei Sato, +323 more
- 31 May 2012 - 
TL;DR: A high-quality genome sequence of domesticated tomato is presented, a draft sequence of its closest wild relative, Solanum pimpinellifolium, is compared, and the two tomato genomes are compared to each other and to the potato genome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antioxidant nutritional quality of tomato.

TL;DR: An index, called index of antioxidant nutritional quality (I(QUAN), was proposed as a tool to address the breeding programs in selecting tomato genotypes with antioxidant nutritional qualities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enhancing the Health-Promoting Effects of Tomato Fruit for Biofortified Food

TL;DR: This review will summarize the recent progress on tomatoes nutritional importance and mechanisms of action of different phytochemicals against inflammation processes and prevention of chronic noncommunicable diseases (e.g., obesity, diabetes, coronary heart disease, and hypertension).
Journal ArticleDOI

PRGdb: a bioinformatics platform for plant resistance gene analysis.

TL;DR: The development of the PRG platform represents an important starting point to conduct various experimental tasks and the inferred cross-link between genomic and phenotypic information allows access to a large body of information to find answers to several biological questions.
