The genetic basis of an erectoid leaf phenotype was investigated in distinct tomato breeding populations, including one derived fromSolanum lycopersicum‘LT05’ (with the erectoid leaf phenotype and uniform ripening, genotypeuu) ×S. pimpinellifollium‘TO-937’ (with the wild-type leaf phenotype and green fruit shoulder, genotypeUU). The erectoid leaf phenotype was inherited as a semi-dominant trait and it co-segregated with theuallele of geneSlGLK2(Solyc10g008160). This genomic location coincides with a previously described semi-dominant mutation named asErectoid leaf(Erl). The genomes of ‘LT05’, ‘TO-937’, and three other unrelated accessions (with the wild-typeErl+allele) were resequenced with the aim of identifying candidate genes. Comparative genomic analyses, including the reference genome ‘Heinz 1706’ (Erl+allele), identified anErectoid leaf-specific single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the geneSolyc10g009320. This SNP caused a change of a glutamine codon (present in all the wild-type genomes) to a TAA (= ochre stop-codon) in theErlallele, resulting in a smaller version of the predicted mutant protein (221 vs. 279 amino acids).Solyc10g009320, previously annotated as an ‘unknown protein’, was identified as aTILLER ANGLE CONTROL1-like gene. Linkage between theErlandSolyc10g009320was confirmed via Sanger sequencing of the PCR amplicons of the two variant alleles. No recombinants were detected in 265 F2individuals. Contrasting S7near-isogenic lines were also homozygous for each of the alternate alleles, reinforcingSolyc10g009320as a strongErlcandidate gene and opening the possibility for fine-tuning manipulation of tomato architecture in breeding programs.
