Abstract
Tomato plants exhibiting resistance to Stemphylium are provided, together with methods of producing, identifying, or selecting plants or germplasm with a Stemphylium resistance phenotype and lacking an undesirable small fruit size trait. Such plants include tomato plants comprising introgressed genomic regions conferring disease resistance. Compositions, including novel polymorphic markers for detecting plants comprising introgressed disease resistance alleles, are further provided.
