Article Synopsis
- The tomato accession LA1996, featuring the Anthocyanin fruit (Aft) gene, exhibits dark green leaves and elevated anthocyanin levels in seedlings and fruit skins, highlighting its potential health benefits.
- Genetic analysis suggests a single dominant gene controls anthocyanin expression, with variations observed between different tomato populations (F(2) and BC(1)).
- The anthocyanin concentration in the skin and pericarp of LA1996 was notably high, with specific types of anthocyanins identified, although other pigment levels were comparable to regular tomatoes, not exceeding those in high pigment varieties.
