Abstract: A Solanum lycopersicum plant including within its genome at least one Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus (TSWV) resistance allele and at least one Phytophthora infestans resistance allele. The resistance alleles are present in the coupling phase at different loci on one chromosome and the plant is resistant against TSWV and resistant against at least Phytophthora infestans. A method for producing a hybrid Solanum lycopersicum plant including (a) obtaining a Solanum lycopersicum plant having within its genome at least one Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus (TSWV) resistance allele and at least one Phytophthora infestans resistance allele in the coupling phase; and (b) crossing the Solanum lycopersicum plant with a second Solanum lycopersicum plant bearing an additional resistance allele.

Abstract: Gas generating compositions or propellants are provided which comprise a non-azide fuel which is a transition metal complex of an aminoarazole. Preferred transition metal complexes are zinc and copper complexes of 5-aminotetrazole and 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole, with the zinc complexes most preferred. The propellant compositions also include a conventional oxidizer, such as potassium nitrate or strontium nitrate. These compositions are useful for generating a nitrogen-containing gas for a variety of applications, especially for inflating air bags in automotive restraint systems, as well as other inflatable devices.

Abstract: Gas generating compositions or propellants are provided which comprise a fuel and a novel oxidizer therefor comprising an inorganic compound having a poly(nitrito) transition metal complex anion. The inorganic oxidant compounds are generically represented by the formula:M.sub.x.sup.1 M.sub.y.sup.2 (NO.sub.2).sub.zwherein (1) M.sup.1 is a metal selected from the (a) Group IA alkali metals, (b) Group IIA alkaline earth metals, preferably strontium, (c) Group IB metals, preferably copper, and (d) Group IIB metals, preferably zinc, of the Periodic Table, (2) M.sup.2 is a metal selected from the transition metals of Groups IVA-IIB of the Periodic Table, (3) x=1, 2, 3, or 4; y=1 or 2, and z=4 or 6 as determined by the required stoichiometry of the metals of the complex, and (4) the M.sup.1 and M.sup.2 metals selected are different metals. M.sup.1 is preferably the Group IA alkali metals, more preferably sodium and potassium, and most preferably potassium. M.sup.
