“…This success is due to the correct combination of the different yield components. Thus, varieties that produce up to 15 kg m -2 and with a high percentage of commercial yields have been developed (Diez and Nuez, 2008).…”

Yield is a complex trait that is affected by several genetic and environmental factors. Yield is defined as the amount of the part of interest that is harvested from a crop plant in a given area. We investigated the genetic basis of yield in an F2 population derived from a cross between Solanum lycopersicum L. and its most closely related wild species S. pimpinellifolium L. We found that average fruit weight, fruit diameter, and fruit length had a strong effect on yield. In addition, small effects on yield due to soluble solids content and locule number were also observed. A total of 25 different significant quantitative trait locus (QTLs) were detected for six traits (fruit length and diameter, fruit weight, yield, locule number, and Brix degrees). The percentage of phenotypic variation associated with single QTLs ranged from 4.19% to 12.67%. A strong co-location of QTLs among yield and fruit size traits was observed, suggesting that these QTLs play a role in the same expression process controlling yield. We also realized that the effects of soluble solids content on yield could be due to direct effects of fruit size QTLs linked to genes controlling soluble solids content. This result then may suggest that yield in tomato is mainly formed by fruit size QTLs, whereas the remaining factors may play a complementary role in the expression of tomato yield.

“…Introgression of genes from wild relatives into selected materials derived from local varieties created the élite lines for the development of modern hybrid tomato varieties with multiple 3 resistances (Díez and Nuez 2008). The loss of genetic diversity due to the replacement of local tomato varieties by improved cultivars has been in many cases mitigated by the collection and safe storage of germplasm in genebanks (Hammer et al 2003).…”

“…Nonetheless, use of CWRs in breeding has allowed significant improvements in a number of crops (Hajjar and Hodgkin, 2007). Maxted and Kell (2009) In tomato, most of the introgressions from wild taxa have been aimed at disease resistance, with 18 resistances having been introduced from seven different species (Díez and Nuez, 2008). In sum, the utilization of CWRs has mostly been restricted to resistance or tolerance to pests and diseases, while other potential uses, like adaptation to abiotic stresses, have been largely neglected.…”

“…As CWRs cannot be directly incorporated into commercial breeding programs, pre-breeding activities have to be initiated as a first step for the utilization of CWRs (Longin and Reif, 2014 (Díez and Nuez, 2008). Resistance to nematodes conferred by the Mi locus was introduced in the 1940s from Solanum peruvianum accession PI128657 (Smith, 1944), while resistance to ToMV conferred by Tm2 2 was introduced in the 1960s from S. peruvianum accession number PI128650 (Alexander, 1963), and later the resistance to TYLCV conferred by Ty-1 was provided by S. chilense accession LA1969 in the 1990s .…”

"Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less." Maria Salomea Skłodowska-Curie AgradecimientosAunque parezcan mucho menos, ya siete son los años que llevo en el COMAV. Los años pasan volando cuando el ambiente de trabajo es estimulante, constructivo, apasionante, gratificante, motivador, intrigante, creativo, integrador, cooperativo, productivo, positivo, divertido…, familiar.Todo empezó aquella tarde del 10 de noviembre del 2010, cuando Lola Raigón, a quien va mi eterna gratitud, me presentó la persona que iba a cambiar mi vida, Jaime Prohens.Jaime, la admiración, el respeto y la gratitud que siento por ti no se pueden expresar en unas pocas frases. Eres la persona que más me ha enseñado, motivado y animado en estos años. Has conseguido sacar de mí unas cualidades que ni siquiera había imaginado tener. Tu inteligencia, sabiduría, humildad, paciencia, hacen de ti un verdadero líder. Gracias por estar pendiente en cada momento, espero colaborar contigo durante muchos años más. Eres un ejemplo a seguir y fuente de inspiración y guía para mi y muchas personas.Mi formación doctoral no sería completa si no hubiera sido por tí, Santi. Intelligente, simpatíco, caótico, siempre de buen humor y "runner".Gracias por todo el conocimiento, las buenas ideas, las clases de Génomica, las risas y los videos "frikis" que has compartido conmigo. Gracias por alegrar nuestros días.Mariola, aunque burocráticamente no has podido ser mi co-directora, te agradezco el apoyo, motivación y alegría de estos años. Aunque ahora pasamos todo el día en los despachos, echo de menos los primeros años de laboratorio, cuando pasábamos horas y horas hablando de lo que fuera. Junto a Jaime y Santi, eres un pilar de "Los Berenjen@s".Gracias a mi "hermano mayor" Javi, por los muchos momentos de amistad pasados juntos, por tu inteligencia, por compartir tus experiencias, por tu buen gusto musical, tu escepticismo, por ser un gran amigo."Los Berenjen@s" se han ido multiplicando y muchas son las entradas que hemos recolectado en estos años alrededor del mundo. Me hubiera gustado escribir algo sobre cada uno de vosotros, pero necesitaría otro capítulo de tesis, así que os agradeceré de forma conjuntas.Gracias Abou, Adriana, Agustín, Alba E., Alba L., Alessio, Andrea, Arantxa, Arunika, Bianca, Brice, Camil, Carolina, Celia, Celine, Cristina, Dani, David, Dionís, Dora, Edgar, Elena C., Elena R., Elisa, Francesco, Giulio, Gloria, Ioana, Irene, Isa, Juan, Juan Pablo, Judith, Lahiru, Lara, Laura, Loles, Maria, Marieta, Michael, Muditha, Nacho, Nadia, Nirasha, Noelia, Orsi, Pelin, Prashant, Ramses, Ranil, Rory, Silia, Sorin, Trong, por haber aportado vuestro granito de arena para la realización de esta tesis y de colaboraciones varias. Todos, los que todavía estáis por aquí y los que se han ido, habéis dejado una huella en el laboratorio y en mí (Pido disculpa si se me ha olvidado alguien, sois muchos los que se han pasado por el labo).Gracias también a todos mis compañeros del COMAV,...
