This project studies the genetic and epigenetic factors involved in hybrid plants, particularly tomatoes, to understand how hybridization can produce new traits. It aims to map the genomes and epigenomes of hybrids to enhance breeding strategies and explore evolutionary mechanisms.
New varieties of plant and animal are produced by hybridisation of closely related varieties or species.
This process generates ""transgressive"" traits that are outside the parental range.
Transgressive phenotypes in hybrids may involve complementation of genetic differences between the two parents, heterozygous advantage, genetic rearrangements and, from our recent work, epigenetic effects associated with RNA silencing.TRIBE will investigate these effects using tomato for which there is a rec…
