YIELD PERFORMANCE OF TOMATO HYBRIDS AND THEIR F2 GENERATIONS

Since the price of tomato hybrid seed is expensive, many farmers are using F2 in commercial plots. As a result in order to evaluate the performance between F1 and F2 tomato genotypes, 37 hybrids and their F2’s generations were grown under greenhouse conditions. Most of the F2 generations had lower values for total fruit weight per plant and fruit number per plant, compared to their F1 hybrids. However, these differences were statistically significant only in two ball fruit bush type as well as four ball fruit indeterminate genotypes, which F2´s showed fruit production reductions over 20 %.
