ASSESSMENT OF PERFORMANCE ON YIELD AND YIELD CONTRIBUTING ATTRIBUTES OF DIFFERENT HYBRIDS TOMATO GENOTYPES IN SOUTHERN PART OF BANGLADESH (Pages : 6 - 12)

Although there are a number of hybrid commercial tomatoes on the market in Bangladesh's southern region, but farmers in Noakhali still continue to grow the local varieties. Therefore, an experiment was conducted in the field of Inu Agro Farm, Sonapur, Noakhali, Bangladesh during 2020-21 to evaluate the effectiveness of several commercial tomato hybrids and identify the best tomato hybrids. The experiment comprised five treatments such as BARI Hybrid Tomato-4 (as control, T0), Lal Bahadur (T1), Mintoo super (T2), Udayon-F1 (T3), and Roma VF (T4). The experiment followed randomized complete block design with three replications. The findings revealed that Mintoo super had the largest plant height and Roma VF had the shortest plant height at various days after transplanting, including final harvest. The most fruit was produced by Udayon F1, which statistically compared to Lal Bahadur. Roma VF had the fewest fruit plant-1, the smallest individual fruit weight, and the most seeds fruit-1, whereas Udayon F1 had the most fruit plant-1. Mintoo Super and Roma VF produced fruits with maximum length and width, while Lal Bahadur and Udayon F1 produced fruits with minimal length and width. The largest number of locules fruit-1 was discovered in Lal Bahadur, while the lowest number was discovered in Roma VF. The largest pericarp thickness was displayed by the variety Mintoo Super, and the least thickness was displayed by BARI Hybrid Tomato-4. The fruit with the highest Total Soluble Solids and longest shelf life was Roma VF. Mintoo super had the best individual fruit weight and fruit yield plant-1. Lal Bahadur and Udayon-F1, BARI Hybrid Tomato-4, and Roma VF were next in line. The largest yield was obtained by Mintoo Super, next by Udayon-F1, and Lal Bahadur. The T2 (Mintoo super) treatment had the best overall performance for tomatoes in the experiment when compared to the other treatments and control kinds.Download
