    Notes: Abstract We have previously found an accession of Lycopersicon pimpinellifolium (Jusl.) Mill. (`TO-937') that appeared to resist attack by the two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae Koch). L. pimpinellifolium is a very close relative of the cultivated tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) and thereby a potential source of desirable traits that could be introgressed to the crop species. The objective of this study was to investigate the genetics of the resistance present in `TO-937'. Resistance to infestation by the spider mite was quantified in 24-plant plots of L. pimpinellifolium accessions `TO-937' and `PE-10', L. pennellii accession `PE-45', L. esculentum cultivars `Moneymaker', `Roma' and `Kalohi' (reported to be partially resistant: Stoner & Stringfellow, 1967), and the interspecific F1 cross, L. esculentum `Moneymaker' × L. pimpinellifolium `TO-937'. Only `TO-937', the F1, and`PE-45' were found to be resistant. Resistance of `TO-937' was complete when evaluated in two small greenhouses completely planted with `TO-937' so as to simulate the genotypic homogeneity usual in commercial crops. Generations (P1, P2, F1, F2, BC1P1, and BC1P2) of a P1 (susceptible) × P2 (resistant) cross (`Moneymaker' × `TO-937') were studied for resistance in a single-plant per plot design. Resistance of `TO-937' was inherited with complete dominance and appeared to be controlled by either two or four genes according to whether segregation in the F2 or the BC1P1, respectively, were considered. However, calculation of the number of genes involved in the resistance was complicated by negative interplot interference due to the high frequency of resistant genotypes within most of the generations.

    Notes: Summary The different viabilities of pollen produced at low temperatures in intra- and inter-specific crosses of tomato were studied. Cultivars Red Top, Moneymaker, and Marroqui were crossed with cultivar E-15 and these four cultivars were hybridized with lines of the wild speciesL. pimpinellifolium PE-13,L. parviflorum PE-52,L. pennellii PE-47, andL. hirsutum PE-37 and PE-41. A six-generation family of the Moneymaker x PE-47 cross was obtained to carry out a more detailed genetical study of pollen grain viability at low temperatures. Pollen grain viability was evaluated during the winter via acetocarmine staining. When the parents were compared with their F1, the intra-specific tomato crosses showed dominance to better-quality pollen, theL. esculentum x L. pimpinellifolium inter-specific crosses showed positive heterosis, while the crosses ofL. esculentum with the tolerant speciesL. pennellii andL. hirsutum showed intermediate inheritance. However, in theL. esculentum x L. pennellii family, the dominance and the non-allelic interactions (homozygosis x homozygosis) were the most important factors, so that dominance to better viability at low temperatures appeared to be the general mode of inheritance. Genetical control of pollen grain viability at low temperatures seemed to be polygenetic.
