a
group
of
researchers

share
an
interest
in
tomato
genetics,
and
who
have
organized
informally
for
the
purpose
of
exchanging
information,
germplasm,
and
genetic
stocks
.
The
Report
of
the
Tomato
Genetics
Cooperative
is
published
annually
and
contains
reports
of
work
in
progress
by
members,

diverse
topics
such
as
new
traits
or
mutants
isolated,
new
cultivars
or
germplasm
developed,
interspecific
transfer
of
traits,
studies
of
gene
function
or
control
or
tissue
culture
.
Relevant
work
on
other
Solanaceous
