Item Line X tester analysis for yield and processing characteristics in tomato(Kerala Agricultural University, 1995) Alice Kurian; Peter, K VCombining ability analysis of 15 hybrids (3 lines x 5 testers) and 8 parents in tomato indicated the role(s) of additive gene action for the characters studied, demanding biparental approach and recurrent selection for improvement. Hybrids LE 206 x Ohio 8129 and Sakthi x TH 318 for total solids, Sakthi x HW 208 F and LE 206 x Ohio 8129 for insoluble solids and LE 206 x Ohio 8129 and LE 206 x St 64 for lycopene are promising for improvement of quality traits.Item Genetic variability, heritability and genetic advance for yield and processing characteristics in tomato(Kerala Agricultural University, 1995) Alice Kurian; Peter, K VGenetic variability and heritability were studied in 64 tomato lines during September 1986 to January 1987. Significant difference was observed for all the characters studied. Index to earliness and fruit cracking showed high genotypic coefficient of variati on. High heritabili ty coupled with high genetic advance was recorded for insoluble solids and storage life.
