Abstract
The breeding line UPV 1 developed from the PE-18 accession of Lycopersicon peruvianum collected in Huallanca, Ancash, Peru, shows resistance to TSWV. Mechanical inoculation and thrips transmission were used to study the inheritance of TSWV resistance of this line. UPV 1resistance is controlled by a dominant gene. The penetrance of this resistance gene was complete in mechanical inoculation and incomplete when thrips transmission was used. Linkage tests between the resistance genes of lines UPV 1 and RDD (Sw-5), indicated allelism. A molecular analysis using a SCAR marker tightly linked to Sw-5 also supported this hypothesis. In heterozygotes the level of resistance expressed in UPV 1 is higher than that expressed in RDD (Sw-5), indicating that the resistance from UPV 1 may be of higher value for the development of commercial hybrids.
