Abstract

Fifteen plurilocular tomato varieties were compared during the hot and rainy season of 1970/71, in Goiânia, state of Goiás, Brazil: Floradel F.M., Floradel L.B.T., Tropi-gro, Tropic, Floralou, Manalucie, 2003 D—2 DI—DBK, Hybrid Sekaiichi F—l, Maçã de Ibirité, L—352, Porter’s Pride, Foremost E—21, Firebird, Grand Prix and Royal Ace. The variety Tropi-gro was the only one with determinate habit of growing, all the others were indeterminate, pruned to two stems and staked. In yielding large, well shaped, marketable, fruits over 200 grams, the Sekaiichi F—1 Hybrid ranked first, followed by Tropic, without significant difference between them. Concerning Open Locule (Catface) Tropic is something more subject to that injury than Sekaiichi. Other rather good varieties were: Floradel F.M., Floralou, Floradel LB.T. e L—352.
