Abstract

Abstract: ‘Hei-G’ is a new tomato cultivar originating from the cross of two inbred lines, the maternal plant TKUI-3 separated from ‘Kame’ in 2007, and the paternal plant AL-1 developed by pedigree breeding. The new cultivar was registered as ‘Hei-G’named ‘JTB026 (Jeonnam-2)’ based on characteristics and yield trials carried out in the spring of 3 years, from 2010 to 2012. ‘Hei-G’ is an indeterminate type with strong plant vigor. The fruit is round and the ripening fruit is blackish red. The average fruit weight of ‘Hei-G’ is about 43.4 g, and its marketable yield is 4,944 kg ・10 a -1 . The lycopene content of ‘Hei-G’ (11.8 mg ・100 g -1 ) is higher than that of other tomatoes (e.g., cv. Rapido, 3.1 mg). In addition, ‘Hei-G’ is suitable for environment-friendly pro tected cultivation because of its resistance to powdery mildew.Additional key words: environment-friendly cultivation, inbred line, lycopene content, resistance to powdery mildew *Corresponding author: ghshin@korea.kr※ Received 14 April 2014; Revised 5 August 2014; Accepted 15 August 2014. 본 연구는 농촌진흥청 지역특화기술개발사업의 지원에 의해 수행되었음 .
