Abstract
Abstract In comparison to tomato plants without the dwarfism gene, dwarf tomato plants were shorter, had a smaller canopy diameter and remained upright during maturation, thereby reducing the fruit-soil contact, resulting in healthier fruits. This study evaluated tomato families of a BC1F3 population carrying the dwarf gene for industrial yield. The 150 BC1F3 families and the two parents (hybrid H-9889 and accession BGH-9889) as controls were assessed in an augmented block design with four replications. The data were subjected to variance analysis and the F test. A selection index, based on the sum of ranks of Mulamba and Mock (1978), was used for the selection of genotypes, considering the most relevant traits, i.e., canopy diameter, yield, lodging and fruit firmness. Thus, selection resulted in a yield gain of 8.04%.
期刊介绍：
The CBAB – CROP BREEDING AND APPLIED BIOTECHNOLOGY (ISSN 1984-7033) – is the official quarterly journal of the Brazilian Society of Plant Breeding, abbreviated CROP BREED APPL BIOTECHNOL.
It publishes original scientific articles, which contribute to the scientific and technological development of plant breeding and agriculture. Articles should be to do with basic and applied research on improvement of perennial and annual plants, within the fields of genetics, conservation of germplasm, biotechnology, genomics, cytogenetics, experimental statistics, seeds, food quality, biotic and abiotic stress, and correlated areas. The article must be unpublished. Simultaneous submitting to another periodical is ruled out. Authors are held solely responsible for the opinions and ideas expressed, which do not necessarily reflect the view of the Editorial board. However, the Editorial board reserves the right to suggest or ask for any modifications required. The journal adopts the Ithenticate software for identification of plagiarism.
