Document Title :
Evaluation of Tomato Cultivars (Lycoperiscon Esculentum Mill) Under High Temperature Conditions
تقييم أصناف محصول الطماطم تحت ظروف الحرارة العالية
 
Document Language : English 
Abstract : An experiment was carried out to test the ability of tomato cultivars to set fruit under high temperature (32-36°Cday) and (20-24°Cnight). The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse where the temperature is controlled by an evaporative cooling system. The response of the tomato cultivars to high temperature varied greatly. The Burgess cultivar produced the highest yield and best quality fruit under the high temperature regime. The Saladette cultivar showed good performance and produced satisfactory results in a variety of characteristics such as the ability to set fruit, resistance to splitting, and absence of an exerted style protruding from the anteridial-cone. The S6916 variety has excellent ability to set fruit and produce a high flower number. However, the fruits were very small and highly susceptible to splitting. The Michigan-Ohio cultivar seeded more than any other strain or cultivar. NS9F1 and Carmello F1 produced the highest percentage of total soluble solids in the fruit juice. The results of this research indicate that several cultivars were suitable for use in arid regions, and it will be possible to develop a cultivar with superior qualities which produces high yield under arid conditions.
