Genetic variability studies of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) under protected conditions of Kerala

Abstract: : Forty tomato genotypes were evaluated in Randomized Block Design with three replications at College of Agriculture, Vellayani, Kerala, during October 2014 to April 2015. Wide range of variability was observed among the characters studied for effective selection of superior genotypes suited which have a great interest for polyhouse tomato breeding. The present appraisal uncovered that PCV and GCV were higher for plant height, truss per plant, fruit weight, fruits per truss, fruits per plant and yield per plan… Show more

“…of fruits/ plant (97.09%, 84.22%), fruit yield per plant (96.86%, 67.95%) indicating strong influence of additive gene action and phenotypic selection is effective for these traits. Analogous observations were found by Lekshmi and Celine (2017) [3] and Ritonga et al, (2018) [6] . The knowledge about the nature and level of inter-relationship of yield and other components is very valuable because selection based on one trait may directly or indirectly affect the performance of another trait.…”

“…These high estimates indicate ample scope for enhancement of these traits through simple selection. High degree for PCV and GCV was reported by Lekshmi and Celine (2017) [3] and Panchbhaiya et al, (2018) [4] . Moderate level of GCV and PCV was seen in plant height at 60 DAT ( 17.61%, 18.67%), polar diameter of fruit ( 16.51%, 17.86%), days to first fruiting (15.91%, 16.56%), days to first flowering (15.58%, 16.89%), days to 50% flowering (15.14%, 16.39%), total soluble solid (13.63%, 13.90%), equatorial diameter of fruit (13.00%, 14.16%) and node to first flowering (11.15%, 12.75%).…”

“…Hybrid CLN2126×CLN1314G was significantly superior because of its genetic makeup and said the combination had a maximum number of fruits per plant, nodes per plant, and plant height; and minimum inter-nodal length and was early in flowering and fruiting. Such kind of genetic differences for marketable fruit yield and other plant characters in different tomato hybrids had also been reported (Arora et al, 2006;Chernet et al, 2014;Ahmad et al, 2016;Lekshmi and Celine 2017;Prakash et al, 2019).…”

“…The significant increase in fruit number might be due to the reason this hybrid combination was early in fruiting and its plant height was also maximum than others. Earlier researchers (Prajapati et al, 2015;Kumar and Singh 2016;Thapa et al, 2016;Lekshmi and Celine, 2017), also mentioned maximum number of fruits plant -1 due to these reasons.…”
