• The C.M. Rick Tomato Genetics Resource Center (TGRC)
  Genebank of wild relatives, monogenic mutants and miscellaneous genetic stocks of tomato. The wild species group includes representatives of all nine Lycopersicon species, as well as 4 related Solanum species. The monogenic mutants include spontaneous and induced mutations affecting many aspects of plant development, introgressed disease resistance genes, and protein marker stocks. The miscellaneous group includes linkage tester stocks, trisomics, translocations, landraces, and several types of prebreds (e.g. alien additions, segmental substitution lines, etc.).
  The collection was founded by Dr. Charles M. Rick in the Dept. of Vegetable Crops, UC-Davis, who collected many of the wild species accessions and produced a large number of marker and cytogenetic stocks.
