Abstract
Combining ability analysis of 15 hybrids (3 lines x 5 testers) and 8 parents in tomato indicated the role(s)
of additive gene action for the characters studied, demanding biparental approach and recurrent selection for
improvement. Hybrids LE 206 x Ohio 8129 and Sakthi x TH 318 for total solids, Sakthi x HW 208 F and LE 206
x Ohio 8129 for insoluble solids and LE 206 x Ohio 8129 and LE 206 x St 64 for lycopene are promising for
improvement of quality traits.
