Tomato chromosome map and cDNA library.

摘要

This invention provides a map of tomato chromosomes marked with the location of a large number of cDNA clones and isozyme markers. The cDNA clones are on deposit with In Vitro International, and may be used in conjunction with the map by finding linkages between desirable breeding characteristics of a tomato plant. After such linkages are established, they may be used to quickly determine the presence or absence of the desired characteristics in tomato plant and to introgress such desired characteristics into another tomato variety.
