Abstrakt: Plant organs harbour diverse components that connect their physiology to the whole organism. The turnover of metabolites may be higher in some organs than in others, triggering differential growth patterns throughout the organism. We revealed that Solanum lycopersicum exhibits more coordinated growth and physiology across the entire plant compared to wild tomato species. Specifically, young leaves of S. lycopersicum develop more slowly than mature leaves, whereas wild species do not exhibit this pattern. Wild tomato Solanum pennellii displays young leaves with higher photosynthetic rates than mature leaves. Consequently, sucrose metabolism in S. pennellii is quite similar between young and mature leaves, while expression patterns of circadian clock genes differ significantly between leaves of different ages. Additionally, we demonstrated that introducing alleles related to tomato domestication into the wild tomato Solanum pimpinellifolium promotes coordinated growth between young and mature leaves, resulting in similar patterns to those observed in S. lycopersicum. Collectively, S. lycopersicum appears to exhibit more coordinated regulation of growth and metabolism, and understanding this process is likely fundamental to explaining its elevated harvest index.
