Description The present investigation entitled “Interrelationship and Genetic divergence in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.)” was carried at Vegetable Research Farm of Department of Horticulture, Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh during rabi, 2009-2010.
The experimental material comprised of 68 tomato genotypes, maintained at Department of Horticulture, Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi. The crops of different genotypes were raised in randomized block design with three replications. Observations were recorded on fourteen characters viz, days to 50% flowering, plant height (cm), number of primary branches per plant, number of flower clusters per plant, number of fruits per plant, fruit length (cm), fruit width (cm), pericarp thickness (mm), number of locules per fruit, average fruit weight (g), number of seeds per fruit, fruit yield per plant (kg), fruit yield per hectare (q/ha) and shelf life. The data obtained during the course of study were analyzed statistically to work out mean performance of the genotypes, range for various traits, phenotypic and genotypic coefficient of variation, heritability, genetic advance/genetic gain, correlation coefficient, path coefficient analysis and genetic divergence.
