Four monogenic recessive tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) mutants at the temporarily red light-insensitive (tri) locus (tri 1, tri 2 in the genetic background breeding line GT; tri 3, tri 4 in the genetic background cultivar Moneymaker) were studied. These mutants had slightly longer hypocotyl

In tomato, nine independent EMS-induced mutants representing recessive mutations at three different loci (gib-1, gib-2, and gib-3) were isolated. Six of these have an almost absolute gibberellin requirement for seed germination and elongation growth. In addition, the leaves are darker green, smaller
A new abscisic acid (ABA) analogue has been isolated from tomato plants. High levels of the compound are found in flacca mutants compared with normal isogenic controls. The analogue also accumulates in response to water stress. Three alternative structures, consistent with the mass spectrum, have be
