Assessing the Genetic Purity of Tomato (solanum lycopersicum) Seedling through SSR Marker
Akshay Dattarav Khandare
Abstract: Tomatoes (solanum lycopersicum) are widely cultivating vegetable globally, prized for their culinary versatility and nutritional value. The contents of phenolic acids vary among varieties of tomatoes and phenolic acids are known for their antioxidant properties. Tomatoes plants breeding has been performed in Maharashtra state, India by using varieties of hybrid seeds to improve their biologically active phenolic acids contents. In the present investigation, I have selected three hybrid varieties of tomatoes named as T26, T79, Phule Kesari and Phule Jayashri to analyze the genetic purity. Genetic material extraction process applied to tomato leaves was done. The genetic material isolation was done using standard procedure. The genetic material was assessed using Spectophotometry and Gel electrophoresis.
Keywords: Tomatoes, phenolic acids, hybrid seeds, genetic purity, Maharashtra
