토마토는 세계적으로 매우 중요한 과채류로서, 과실 내에 카로티노이드의 함량이 많아 항암효과, 노화방지 및 비타민이 풍부하다고 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내외로 부터 수집한 토마토 유전자원 771계통을 대상으로 과색, 과형, 과중, pH, 산도 및 당도 등 주요형질의 분포를 분석하였다. 과색의 분포는 적색과가 약 85%을 차지하며, 복숭아색, 황색, 녹, 오랜지, 백색, 흑색순을 보였다. 과형은 편구가 46%, 정구가 27% 등 다양한 형태로 나타났으며, 과즙당도의 분포범위는 최소 2,2%부터 11,5%까지로 평균 5.6%이었다. 또한 과즙의 산도 분포 범위는 최소 0.124%부터 최대 1.665%까지로, 평균치는 0.881%이었다. 과육중의 라이코핀 함량의 분포범위는 최소 0.0 μg/g부터 80.4 μg/g까지로 평균 43.3 μg/g이었으며, β-카로틴 함량은 최소 1.8 μg/g부터 최대 48.8 μg/g까지로 평균치는 10.8 μg/g이었다. 수집 유전자원의 주요 형질간 상관는 당도와 산도, 산도와 pH, pH와 라이코핀, 라이코핀과 β-카로틴 등이 높은 상관관계를 보였다. 이상의 결과로부터 주요 형질이 높은 유전자원을 이용하여, 고당함유 품종육성, 고 색소함유 품종육성 등 고기능성 토마토 품종육성에 크게 기여 할 것이라고 생각된다.

Late blight caused by Phytophthora infestans is historically a serious epidemic disease in potato and tomato cultivations. Accession L3708 (Solanum pimpinellifolium), a new source for late blight resistance was identified in AVRDC, and carries the resistance gene, Ph-3, incompatible to P. infestans race 3. The AFLP markers linked to Ph-3 were previously developed from the L3708 accession (Chunwongse et al. 2002). To facilitate tomato breeding with the Ph-3 gene, an attempt was made to convert AFLP markers to sequence-characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers. Among 6 AFLP markers, only one AFLP marker, L87, was successfully converted to SCAR marker. The resistance-specific 230 bp AFLP fragment was cloned and sequenced, and the PCR primer amplifying a 123 bp fragment was designed. This SCAR marker could discriminate resistant and susceptible individuals with high stringency. The developed SCAR marker could be used for the marker assisted-selection in tomato breeding programs.

본 연구에서는 사용이 증가되고 있는 천공포장재 필름을 방울 토마토 저장에 이용하여 방울 토마토의 품질변화를 조사하였으며, 또한 세척 및 꼭지 제거의 최소가공 처리유무가 방울 토마토의 저장성에 미치는 영향 및 최적 천공포장 조건을 살펴보았다. 에틸렌 가스 및 이산화탄소는 천공필름 중 투과성이 가장 낮은 LF05 및 OPP/PE 필름구에서 상대적으로 투과성이 높은 LF10, LF20, LF40에 비해 높은 값을 보였고, 산소 분압의 경우 LF05에서

This study was carried out to breed and develop high quality and functional nutrient tomato with multi disease resistance as well as a stable growing adaptation for fresh market usage under protected plastic houses cultivation. The materials were used 5 inbred lines and their 6 hybrids of large tomato group, which have been bred and developed from 1999 to 2007 in Division of Plant Resource Department of Chungnam National University. Fruit weight showed hybrid vigor effect that F1 hybrids weighed more than their parent lines, fruit shape formed three type of oblate, deep oblate and globe shape, in firmness and pericarp thickness have got a high significant correlation, inbred DN611 line was measured the most firm fruit with 6.04 mm pericarp thickness. In fruit color at maturity, pink color crossed to red color appeared all red fruit color in the F1 hybrids, it means red skin color is a dominant gene compared to pink skin color is a recessive gene in tomato, while between fruit skin color and shoulder part color showed no any co-relationship. The sugar content and titratable acid of F1 hybrids inherited an intermediate data of their parent lines, the flavor of KP543 inbred line and the hybrid (JB535 x KP543) revealed the better taste with high brix and proper titratable acid content*. In beta carotene content DN611 line showed 2~3 times higher than other materials so that its 3 hybrids contained an increased level of beta carotene, lycopene content was not so much difference among inbred lines and F1 hybrids, of them MD508 contained higher of 8.72 mg and hybrid (JB535 x JA517) had 8.05 mg lycopene content per 100 g fruit, overall pink skin color and red skin color measured a higher lycopene content than yellow and orange skin color at ripe stage. In disease resistance test by PCR marker for Fusarium race2 (I2), Nematode (Mi1), ToMV (Tm22), Cladosporium (Cf9), (JB535 x JA517) hybrid have got multi-resistance with homozygote band in Nematode, ToMV, Cladosporium and heterozygote band in Fusarium race2. Through this breeding program we could select high quality and functional nutrient with multi resistant F1 hybrids and inbred lines in tomato which are two best hybrids (JB535 x MD508), (JB535 x JA517), additionally developed high beta carotene inbred line DN611 and increased the level of lycopene inbred line MD508. These results will be very useful to make a high quality tomato variety continuously.
