This book gathers the latest information on the organization of genomes in wild Solanum species and emphasizes how this information is yielding direct outcomes in the fields of molecular breeding, as well as a better understanding of both the patterns and processes of evolution. Cultivated Solanums, such as potato, tomato, and pepper, possess a high number of wild relatives that are of great importance for practical breeding and evolutionary studies. Their germplasm is often characterized by allelic diversity, as well as genes that are lacking in the cultivated species. Wild Solanums have not been fully exploited by breeders. This is mainly due to the lack of information regarding their genetics and genomics. However, the genome of important cultivated Solanaceae such as potato, tomato, eggplant, and pepper has already been sequenced. On the heels of these recent developments, wild Solanum genomes are now becoming available, opening an exciting new era for both basic research and varietal development in the Solanaceae.

This book describes the strategy used for sequencing, assembling and annotating the tomato genome and presents the main characteristics of this sequence with a special focus on repeated sequences and the ancestral polyploidy events. It also includes the chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes. Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is a major crop plant as well as a model for fruit development, and the availability of the genome sequence has completely changed the paradigm of the species’ genetics and genomics. The book describes the numerous genetic and genomic resources available, the identified genes and quantitative trait locus (QTL) identified, as well as the strong synteny across Solanaceae species. Lastly, it discusses the consequences of the availability of a high-quality genome sequence of the cultivated species for the research community. It is a valuable resource for students and researchers interested in the genetics and genomics of tomato and Solanaceae.

The book discusses the importance of eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) as a crop, highlighting the potential for eggplant to serve as a model for understanding several evolutionary and taxonomic questions. It also explores the genomic make-up, in particular in comparison to other Solanaceous crops, and examines the parallels between eggplant and tomato domestication as well as between the most common eggplant species and two related eggplants native to Africa (Ethiopian eggplant [Solanum aethiopicum L.] and African eggplant [Solanum macrocarpon L.]). The eggplant genome was first sequenced in 2014, and an improved version was due to be released in 2017. Further investigations have revealed the relationships between wild species, domesticated eggplant, and feral weedy eggplant (derived from the domesticate), as well as targets of selection during domestication. Parallels between eggplant and tomato domestication loci are well known and the molecular basis is currently being investigated. Eggplant is a source of nutrition for millions of people worldwide, especially in Southeast Asia where it is a staple food source. Domesticated in the old world, in contrast to its congeners tomato and potato, the eggplant is morphologically and nutritionally diverse. The spread of wild eggplants from Africa is particularly interesting from a cultural point of view. This book brings together diverse fields of research, from bioinformatics to taxonomy to nutrition to allow readers to fully understand eggplant’s importance and potential.

This book describes the historical importance of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.),potato genetic resources and stocks (including S. tuberosum group Phureja DM1-3 516 R44, a unique doubled monoploid homozygous line) used for potato genome sequencing. It also discusses strategies and tools for high-throughput sequencing, sequence assembly, annotation, analysis, repetitive sequences and genotyping-by-sequencing approaches. Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.; 2n = 4x = 48) is the fourth most important food crop of the world after rice, wheat and maize and holds great potential to ensure both food and nutritional security. It is an autotetraploid crop with complex genetics, acute inbreeding depression and a highly heterozygous nature. Further, the book examines the recent discovery of whole genome sequencing of a few wild potato species genomes, genomics in management and genetic enhancement of Solanum species, new strategies towards durable potato late blight resistance, structural analysis of resistance genes, genomics resources for abiotic stress management, as well as somatic cell genetics and modern approaches in true-potato-seed technology. The complete genome sequence provides a better understanding of potato biology, underpinning evolutionary process, genetics, breeding and molecular efforts to improve various important traits involved in potato growth and development.

"Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) originated in the South American Andes and is an economically important staple crop that can be successfully grown in various conditions and altitudes. The potato genome is complex, with a large gene pool drawn from numerous wild species of varying ploidy levels ranging from diploids to hexaploids. Potato breeding efforts in North America and Europe have traditionally focused on vegetative propagation of tetraploid potato because of its higher yield. However, due to the high heterozygosity levels and difficulties of tetraploid breeding, new improvement efforts are increasingly looking to diploid species as a means of introgressing traits into crop varieties.Genome sequence data and means of analyzing and visualizing the data, are crucial to achieve this goal. Significant work has previously been done by sequencing and publishing different potato reference genomes, a double monoploid (S. tuberosum Group Phureja - DM), two wild reference genomes (S. commersonii and S. chacoense clone M6), a landrace genome (S. stenotomum subsp. goniocalyx), and two diploid S. tuberosum genomes (Solanum tuberosum group Tuberosum RH89-039-16, Solanum tuberosum, Solyntus).The present study focuses on expanding the genomic resources for potato genome analyses. First, this study presents a newly sequenced and assembled diploid genome of S. bukasovii, which is thought to be one of the wild species that is most closely related to the cultivated potato. This genome sequence is compared with the available potato reference genomes and the results show that Copy Number Variation (CNV) affect genes have important functions such as disease resistance and metabolite biosynthesis. Second, a web portal - the Potato Genome Diversity Portal (PGDP) - was developed and implemented to visualize the published potato genomes using JBrowse and to provide a tool to investigate the genome alignments along with aiding the structural variation analysis PGDP also enables researchers to conduct research and share data"--

Solanum lycopersicum (cultivated tomato) is one of the most important vegetable crops worldwide. Improvement of cultivated tomato is limited because it has little genetic variation compared to its diverse wild relatives. There is therefore great interest in studying and leveraging the genetic diversity of closely related wild tomato species. Solanum habrochaites is a wild tomato species with several advantageous traits such as tolerance to chilling and water stress. One of the goals of the St. Clair research group is to understand the genetic and genomic basis for chilling tolerance in wild tomato. Previous studies used an interspecific population derived from chilling-susceptible S. lycopersicum cv. T5 and chilling-tolerant S. habrochaites acc. LA1778 to map QTL controlling tolerance to rapid-onset water stress induced by root chilling. The largest effect QTL for this trait is located in a 0.32-cM region on chromosome 9, which was named QTL stm9 for "shoot turgor maintenance, chromosome 9". The two studies in this thesis describe our efforts to identify the genetic and genomic bases for the functional differences between S. lycopersicum and S. habrochaites in the QTL stm9 region. In the first study, we sequenced BACs isolated from a S. habrochaites acc. LA1778 genomic library using probes corresponding to the stm9 region. Unfortunately, the targeting was inaccurate, and only one of the 30 BACs sequenced aligned to stm9. Fortunately, we were able to use the 30 BACs and ~1x shotgun sequencing of LA1778 to examine the global repeat content of the S. habrochaites genome. We found that it has greater repeat content and diversity than S. lycopersicum. In the second study, we created a genomic scaffold of the stm9 region using the recently publicly released contigs from a S. habrochaites accession LYC4 genome sequencing project. We found that the S. habrochaites LYC4 stm9 region is relatively gene-rich and repeat-poor compared to the genome average of S. lycopersicum. Based on the alignment of LA1778 random shotgun sequences, the LYC4 scaffold appears to be nearly complete. We find that there are many sequence differences between the LYC4 stm9 scaffold and its syntenic sequence in S. lycopersicum. It is currently unclear which of these differences may impact the biology of the organism, specifically tolerance to chilling. While one might expect the critical polymorphisms to be within the approximately one dozen genes located in this region, it may be that regulatory elements, RNAs, and/or repeat structure also play a significant role.
