A cultivated tomato plant having a genome including an introgression
derived from a green-fruited tomato, the green-fruited tomato being
characterized by fruits having a brix value above 5 brix units, the
introgression including a portion of chromosome 9 of the green-fruited
tomato, the portion extending telomerically to a point so as to exclude
from the portion an allele of the green-fruited tomato being responsible
for an undesired trait selected from the group consisting of higher
percent green fruit yield and longer internodes characterizing the
green-fruited tomato as is compared to the cultivated tomato plant, the
introgression inherently increasing by at least 6% a brix value
characterizing fruits of the cultivated tomato plant as is compared to a
nearly isogenic tomato plant lacking the introgression.
