2022 research brief: Tomato Brown Rugose Fruit Virus

摘要

Nearly 10 years ago, Vineland Research and Innovation Centre (Vineland) initiated, in collaboration with the Ontario Greenhouse Vegetable Growers (OGVG) and Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC), the only greenhouse toma-toes-on-the- vine (TOVs) breeding program in Canada.As the majority of tomato varieties have been developed by European seed companies, Vineland’s program focused initially on developing flavourful greenhouse TOVs adapted to the unique climate in southern Ontario, the epicentre of modern greenhouse vegetable production in North America.
