Abstract
Present investigations were carried out in tomato assess the mean performance, general mean and range for nineteen quantitative characters. Forty-five tomato hybrids were generated by crossing ten parents in randomized complete block design with three replications at the Main Experiment Station, Department of Vegetable Science, ANDUA&T, Kumarganj, Ayodhya, during winter (Rabi) season 2020-2021 and 2021-2022. The pooled estimates of mean performance for total fruit yield per plant varied from 2.35 to 3.24 kg for parents and 1.87 to 3.43 kg fruit for hybrids. The mean values over the parents and F1 hybrids were 2.51 and 2.68 kg, respectively. The highest mean performance for most desirable traits fruit yield per plant was exhibited by P6 (3.24 kg) followed by P9 (3.23 kg), P10 (3.09 kg), P5 (2.99 kg) and P4 (2.81 kg) for the parent. Among the hybrids, the highest fruit yield per plant was exhibited by P2× P5 (3.43 kg) followed by P4× P9 (3.41 kg), P4× P7 (3.30 kg), P1× P5(3.22 kg) and P4× P8 (3.20 kg) in descending order.
