PLANT REVIEW ON SOLANUM LYCOPERSICUM (Tomato)

Since the majority of tomato varieties in Bangladesh are in hybrid, it is necessary to describe and evaluate morphological variability as a resource for choosing genotype with desirable features in order to generate new varieties. Using development vegetative and fruit features, twenty-two promising tomatoes in bred lines were described twenty-seven morphological trials at the Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI) between October 2009 and march 2010. In the study, 21 quantitative and 6 quantitative physio- morphological features exhibited a broad range of variance, whereas 20 traits shown significant variation among genotypes. There were one or more unique characteristics that might be utilized to identify each genotype. The morphological information for the fruits green shoulder trips, hypocotyl colour, hypocotyl pubescence, leaf type and fruit cross-sectional shape revealed useful diagnostic features that can be utilized to distinguish between the genotypes because they were prevalent in the study. A single morphological characteristic, however makes it challenging to identify every genotype; yet it can improve tomato production diversity and quality. [1,2]
