I've spoken with people who have a pretty good handle on tomato genetics. I'm not going to mention names, but you'd recognize them if I did. Anyhow, here is basically what I got from those conversations. It is assumed that there are 2 or 3 genes involved with bi-color and black tomatoes. Additionally, with stripes/streaks there are 3 patterns controlled by at least 2 genes.

I don't know if this helps, but I thought I'd pass along the info.
