Researchers have created a genetic map of the wild tomato, a development designed to help locate and potentially recover the lost flavor of the fruit. Modern agricultural selection and genetic improvement have successfully produced larger, firmer tomatoes capable of withstanding transport without damage.

However, this agricultural progress came at a cost to the fruit's taste. The new genetic map provides a guide for where to search within wild varieties to restore the flavor that was lost through decades of commercial breeding.
