Zusammenfassung:Tomato as a fresh fruit has a large market share in China, but few new materials have been developed for such cultivar breeding in recent years. This study aims to create innovative breeding materials for fresh fruit tomatoes with consistent genetic backgrounds and take advantage of beneficial genes from wild germplasm resources. An introgression line (IL) population was constructed using freshly cultivated tomato S. lycopersicum 1052 and wild tomato S. pennellii LA0716 through hybridization and five consecutive backcrossings, with molecular marker-assisted selection techniques during seedling stages. A total of 447 cleaved amplified polymorphic sequences (CAPS) and 525 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were used to screen polymorphic markers among the two parental lines, resulting in 216 polymorphic CAPS and 236 polymorphic SSR markers, with 46.5% parental polymorphism. Then, 200 molecular markers uniformly distributed over the entire genome were further selected, and 107 ILs were finally obtained from 541 BC5 candidate plants. The physical distance between adjacent markers was 6.3~10.0 cm, with an average interval of 7.29 cm, and the IL population constructed covered the whole genome of S. pennillii LA0716, with an average introgression segment of 31.5 cm. Moreover, phenotype data of major agronomic traits in BC5 progeny after selfing two times, were analyzed for quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping, and a total of 11 QTLs distributed on 6 chromosomes were identified, including 3 QTLs regulating plant height, 1 QTL regulating leaf size, 1 QTL regulating fruit color, 4 QTLs regulating fruit weight, and 2 QTLs regulating soluble solids content in ripening fruits. The IL population constructed in this study provided good materials for fresh fruit tomato breeding with improved yield and quality in the future.
