Abstract: Little is known about the commercial potential of mini-tomato hybrids obtained from one dwarf parent. Thus, our objective was to evaluate the agronomic performance of mini-tomato hybrids obtained by crossing a dwarf line (A) with normal lines with indeterminate (I), determinate (D) and semi-determinate (SD) growth habits. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse at the Estação Experimental de Hortaliças at the Universidade Federal de Uberlândia-UFU in Monte Carmelo, Brazil. The experiment was completely ra… Show more

“…The high soluble solid content is a desirable trait due to its association with sweeter flavored tomatoes, which are preferred by consumers (Maciel et al, 2015;Schwarzet al, 2013). Moreover, the short internodes of the dwarf populations are also beneficial because they result in more compact plants in hybrid combinations, with more clusters per linear meter of stem (Finzi et al, 2017a).…”

“…It is important to highlight that the dwarf tomato populations are part of the first backcross with the recurrent parent. For the next phase of this study, we suggest performing another backcross and subsequently obtaining hybrid round tomatoes from dwarf lines similar to those breed by Finzi et al (2017a) in mini-tomatoes. This makes it important to use different selection strategies to obtain superior dwarf populations, with genetic dissimilarity measures and selection indices proving to be promising alternatives.…”

“…Studies on the exploitation of dwarfism in cultivars for fruit production were also carried out. According to Finzi et al (2017), dwarf lines planted at high densities were more productive than normal-sized cultivars. Yanokuchi and Okamoto (2001) evaluated different sources of dwarfism used in the breeding of cherry tomatoes.…”

“…The dwarfism, which coding small plants, assume great importance in the development of modern tomato hybrids (Maciel et al, 2015b). One of the main advantages of the incorporation of dwarf genes, in tomato, is the presence of reduced internodes, which makes plants with a more compact structure (Gardner and Panthee, 2012;Panthee and Gardner, 2013a,b) and a greater number of clusters per linear meter of stems, with increase of productivity for minitomato hybrids from dwarf lines (Finzi et al, 2017).…”
