The present invention is directed to a commercial tomato, namely S. lycopersicum plant, which is resistant to an arthropod pest comprising in its genome introgressed sequences from S. galapagense conferring resistance to said arthropod pest, wherein the introgressed sequences are chosen from those present in the genome of a plant of the line TUT115 NCIMB accession number 42109. The commercial tomato of the invention is preferably resistant to ToMV (Tomato Mosaic Virus). The introgressed sequences are preferably found at one or more of the loci defined by the following SNP markers: SNP solcap_snp_sl_18619 on chromosome 1 and SNP solcap_snp_sl_12348 on chromosome 1.

The present invention relates to a plant of the species Solanum lycopersicum comprising in its genome at least one copy of a mutant allele of the wild type ACO4 gene, wherein said mutant allele when present in homozygous form causes the fruits having an increased fruit firmness after the fruits entered the full red stage. The present invention further relates to a seed from which a plant according to present invention can be grown, a plant grown from the seed according to the present invention, a fruit produced by a plant according to the present invention and a part of a plant according to the present invention. The present invention further relates to a method for producing tomato fruit having an increased shelf life comprising growing a plant according to the present invention. The present invention further relates to a method of identifying and/or selecting a plant or plant part according to the present invention. The present invention further relates to a method of producing a plant of the species Solanum lycopersicum comprising in its genome at least one copy of a mutant allele of the ACO4 gene according to the present invention. The present invention further relates to the use of a plant of the species Solanum lycopersicum of the present invention for consumption or as a source of propagation material.
