Natural variation in SlGRF10 reveals a role in regulating tomato fruit weight

Analysis of natural variation in SlGRF10 in over 1,000 tomato accessions revealed that increased single-nucleotide polymorphism diversity in SlGRF10 is associated with lower fruit weight, which suggests that putative impaired activity contributes to reduced fruit weight, while breeding-induced reduction of genetic variation may have promoted increased fruit weight.
