Solanum chilense is a robust, perennial, herbaceous plant that at first grows erect, later lying. It reaches up to 1 metre (3 ft 3 in) high; its foliage reaches a similar diameter. It is found on rocky sites. The grayish stems become woody at the base and reach a diameter of 8 to 12 millimetres (0.31 to 0.47 in).
Solanum chilense is a wild tomato from southern Peru and northern Chile. It is distantly related to the domesticated Solanum lycopersium and a sister species of Solanum peruvianum. It was sequenced by a group of scientists at the Helmholtz Centre in Munich and the Technical University of Munich. For questions, please contact Remco Stam.
Mar 30, 2021 · Study organism. Solanum chilense (Dunal) Reiche plants are herbaceous perennials with a woody base, erect or decumbent growth, 0.5 to 1.5 m tall and 1 m wide when found isolated along cliff- and roadsides, but commonly spreading to 2 to 4 m (or more) inside deep Andean volcanic canyons carved by snowmelt and sparse rain.

Dec 23, 2020 · With an aim to understand the major gene-mediated resistance diversity in a geographical context, we use Solanum chilense, 1 of the 17 wild tomato species known. The species range spreads from southern Peru, where it inhabits both arid lowland and relatively wet, high-altitude regions (up to 3500 m above sea level), down to the edges of the ...
