Title: Dwarf Tomato Project Lines
Post by: triffid on 2019-06-06, 10:40:00 AM
Have the pedigrees of the Dwarf Tomato Project varieties been published? I see mention of certain lines that varieties have been selected from, e.g. 'Dopey'.

Would be good to know their ancestry in preparation for further breeding work.

There is a mysterious private forum for that over on tomatoville. My registration over there never went all the way through. So I can't see anything.

I didn't know it was private.  There is something to read before volunteering for the project.

That link is also private. I registered on there a while ago but I'm having the same predicament as William. As far as I'm aware the project ended in 2018.

Oh.

Then try Tatiana.  She gives the parentage and also names the people who helped develop each dwarf.

Here's the first one she lists:

Yes, the above site is open to all. It belongs to Patrina Nuske-Small, the coordinator of the southern hemisphere growouts for the project. I think most of the dwarf varieties have their pedigrees listed there.
