Abstract: The invention relates to parthenocarpic tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) which are grown from seeds, which are smaller than wild tomatoes and which, when ripe, display a more intense red colour than wild tomatoes. The tomatoes are obtained by cultivating a transgenic tomato plant which produces said parthenocarpic tomatoes and which is obtained using a method consisting in: (a) introducing a DNA construction into a cell or tissue of a tomato plant, said construction comprising (i) the pea END1 gene promoter or a functional fragment of same and (ii) a cytotoxic gene which is functionally bound to the aforementioned promoter or fragment of same; and (b) regenerating the tomato plant cell or tissue transformed in step (a) in order to produce a transgenic tomato plant that produces parthenocarpic tomatoes. The invention is suitable for use in food and agrifood industries.
