Groundbreaking Tomato Genetics Ignored

It's simple and I'm pissed. Enough already. Another paper was released and here is an excerpt from it: "A facultative parthenocarpic tomato line suitable for use in warm climates was developed in 1937. Since then, only the HOMEOBOX-LEUCINE ZIPPER PROTEIN 15 A (HB15A) and AGAMOUS-LIKE 6 (AGL6) alleles of historical parthenocarpic mutants pat/pat-1 and pat-K respectively have been identified. However, abnormal ovule development in these mutants results in few seeds that prohibit their exploitation in tomato breeding programs. It is therefore critical to identify other genetic resources that endow parthenocarpic fruit and viable seed, while also overcoming trade-offs between fruit set and plant development."

I have been essentially screaming to everyone about nearly perfect parthenocarpic lines I have developed, called Pat-b, for 10 years. You would think someone would ask some serious questions, right? #pat-b #parthenocarpy __________________________________________________ DONATIONS: If you appreciate my vegetable breeding efforts, and have asked for seed, or have found my video content helpful, you can donate to my work 2 ways: 1.
