En busca del Tomate Silvestre


En busca del Tomate Silvestre / Chasing the Wild Tomato

Al igual que otras expediciones realizadas anteriormente por el grupo de Charles Rick desde 1948 hasta 1995, un grupo de biólogos de bata y de bota se embarca en la aventura del estudio de las autopolinizaciones y polinizaciones cruzadas entre especies de tomate silvestres originales de tierras peruanas. Nuestro proyecto estudia cuales son las barreras de reproducción interespecíficas en tomate, y para ello trabajamos con especies silvestres y cultivadas con distinto comportamiento en cuanto a la reproducción: autocompatibles y autoincompatibles. Perú es cuna de una gran variedad de tomates silvestres tales como S. habrochaites, S. pimpinellifolium, S. pennellii entres otras. Dependiendo del área geográfica de la población, el sistema de unión puede cambiar y por ello vamos a muestrear desde Cajamarca (Norte) pasando por Lima (Centro) y bajando hasta el Sur (Área de Pisco).

¡COMIENZA LA AVENTURA!

In the same way that previous field studies carried out by Charles Rick group from 1948 to 1995, a group of plant biologist repeat the experience studing the self and cross pollinations in wild tomato species from Peru. Our project is interested in reproductive barriers in tomato focus on wild and domesticated species self-compatible and self-incompatible. Perú conserved a huge amount of wild tomato species such as S. habrochaites, S. pimpinellifolium, S. pennellii. Depending of the geographic origen of the population, the matching system can be different and that is why we are going to sampling from North (Cajamarca), Center (Lima) and South (Pisco) areas in Peru
