NATURE OF GENE ACTION FOR SOME ECONOMIC CHARACTERS OF TOMATO (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) VARIETIES
Abstract:Knowledge about the mode of gene action of economical traits (which directly contribute towards yield and fruit quality) in any crop like tomato (lycopersicon esculentum L.) helps to formulate the genetic basis for breeding. Thus, the aim of the present study was to estimate different types of gene action affecting some characteristics of tomato. For this purpose, five tomato varieties were used. These varieties were: Advantage 2 (P 1 ), Cherry (P 2 ), Fatma (P 3 ), Edkaway (P 4 ) and Castle Rock (P 5 ). The v… Show more
