Blackmold, caused by the fungus Alternaria alternata, is a major ripe fruit disease of processing tomatoes. Previously, we found blackmold resistance in a wild tomato (Lycopersicon cheesmanii) and quantitative trait loci (QTL) for resistance were mapped in an interspecific population. Five QTLs were selected for introgression from L. cheesmanii into cultivated tomato using marker-assisted selection (MAS). Restriction fragment length polymorphism and PCR-based markers flanking, and within, the chromosomal regions containing QTLs were used for MAS during backcross and selfing generations. BC1 plants heterozygous at the QTLs, and subsequent BC1S1 and BC1S2 lines possessing different homozygous combinations of alleles at the target QTLs, were identified using DNA markers. Field experiments were conducted in 1998 (with 80 marker-selected BC1S2 lines) and 1999 (with 151 marker-selected BC1S2 and BC1S3 lines) at three California locations. Blackmold resistance was assessed during both years, and horticultural traits were evaluated in 1999. The BC1S2 and BC1S3 lines containing L. cheesmanii alleles at the QTLs were associated with a large genetic variance for resistance to blackmold and moderate heritability, suggesting that significant genetic gain may be achieved by selection in this genetic material. L. cheesmanii alleles at three of the five introgressed QTLs showed a significant, positive effect on blackmold resistance. A QTL on chromosome 2 had the largest positive effect on blackmold resistance, alone and in combination with other QTLs, and was also associated with earliness, a positive horticultural trait. The other four QTLs were associated primarily with negative horticultural traits. Fine mapping QTLs using near isogenic lines could help determine if such trait associations are due to linkage drag or pleiotropy.
