7,000 more genes

7,000 more genes
than a human.....and probably a higher IQ than creationist morons.

The TOMATO - Decoded.

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/05/31/scienc...TE&ei=5043

Quote:The tomato, whose genome has just now been decoded, turns out to be one well-endowed vegetable, possessing 31,760 genes. This rich legacy, possibly a reflection of the disaster that killed off the dinosaurs, is some 7,000 more than that of a person, and presents a complex puzzle to scientists who hope to understand its secrets.
