TOMATO VARIETY TRIAL RESULTS FOR FALL 1987

T. K. Howe, J. W. Scott and U. E. HWaters

Eleven commercial fresh market tomato cultivars or breeding lines and five
advanced IFAS breeding lines were evaluated in a replicated trial in the fall
of 1987 at the Gulf Coast Research and Education Center in Bradenton, Fl.

In addition, ninety-eight breeding lines and cultivars were evaluated
subjectively (no harvest) in single, unreplicated plots. These will be
referred to as observational entries.
MATERIALS AND METHODS

Bed Preparation: Prior to the bedding operation, dolomite was applied at 1
ton/acre (June, 1987) and superphosphate (0-20-0) with minor elements (F503 at
80 Ib/ton 0-20-0) was applied at 600 Ib/acre (July, 1988). Raised beds of
EauGallie fine sand were formed on August 5, 1987. The 30-inch wide beds were
spaced on 4.5 ft centers with seepage irrigation ditches spaced every 7 beds.
Fertilizer included 18-0-25-2 (N-P205-K20-MgO) at 141 lb/1000 linear feet of
bed (LFB) and KNO3 at 66 lb/1000 LFB which was distributed into 2 narrow bands
in shallow grooves on the bed surface 8 inches to each side of the
bed center. This fertilizer regime provided a 1:2 ratio of N:K20 with
approximately 33 lb N per 1000 LFB. The beds were fumigated with
methyl bromide:chloropicrin (67%:33%) at 36 lb/1000 LFB and mulched with white
polyethylene film.

Transplant Production: All replicated entries (Table 1) and observational
entries (Table 8) were sown on July 16, 1987 into wooden flats containing Black
BeautyR (Mineral Aggregates, Inc.), an inert processed product of spent coal,
and lightly covered with coarse vermiculite. Seedlings were transferred 7 days
later into ToddR planter flats (Speedling, Inc., 1.5 x 1.5 x 2.5-inch cells,
model 150) containing vermiculite and Canadian peat (1:1, v:v) amended with
superphosphate, dolomite and micronutrients.

Crop Production: Paraquat was sprayed on row middles on Aug. 18, 1987.
Transplants were set in the field on August 20, 1987 29 inches apart in single
rows in the center of each bed, and drenched with 20-20-20 liquid fertilizer at
5 lb/100 gal water. Four replications of 10 plants per entry were arranged in

1Biological Administrator I, Associate Professor (Vegetable Breeding) and
Center Director, respectively.









a randomized complete block design for the replicated (harvested) trial,
whereas single 10-plant plots were used for the observational trial. Diazinon
bait was applied to row middles after transplanting for mole cricket control.
Resetting was done on August 24, 28 and 31, 1987. One shielded spray of
paraquat was applied to the row middles for weed control. Plants were later
staked and tied without pruning. Paraquat was applied to row middles again on
the week of September 7, 1987. Weather information for the season compared to
32-yr averages is in Table 2.

Crops were scouted for insects control throughout the season. Leafminer and
armyworm populations were the primary insects present in the fall.
Methamidophos, methomyl, permethrin and Bacillus thuringiensis were applied on
an "as needed" basis following label instructions.

A regular spray program utilizing maneb-ZnSO4 and chlorothalonil was followed
to prevent or control fungal diseases. Tribasic copper sulfate was added to
maneb-ZnSO4 sprays to control bacterial spot.

Fruit of the replicated trial entries were hand harvested at the mature green
stage (or beyond) on November 11, 23 and December 3, 1987. Tomatoes were
graded as cull or marketable in quality, and marketable fruit were sized by
machine as: 6x7 (medium), 6x6 (large) and 5x6 (extra large) according to
commercial standards (see Table 3, 4, or 6 for specifications). Both cull and
marketable fruit were counted and weighed.

Subjective ratings were given to all tomato entries in the replicated and
observational trials at the end of the season when red ripe fruit were on the
vine. Since replicated entries were harvested, additional unharvested plots of
replicated entries were planted specifically for late season appraisal.
Ratings were given in various categories defining plant features, fruit quality
and horticultural characteristics. The ratings and the explanation of the
rating scales are contained in the footnotes of Table 8.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

Seasonal. Total marketable yields for the season (Table 3) ranged from 155.6
cartons/1000 LFB for 'Sunny' to 225.3 cartons/1000 LFB for IFAS 7164. Ten
other entries were not significantly different from IFAS 7164 in seasonal
yield. This range of yield was similar to past fall season trials conducted at
the research center with the exception of 1986 which had very low yields (1-6).
Highest extra large fruit yield was produced by IFAS 7164 (59,4 cartons/1000
LFB) which was not significantly different from IFAS 7193 (50.7), 'Pacific'
(47.3), 'Bonita' (39.4) and 'Duke' (38.9). Average seasonal fruit weight
ranged from 4.2 to 5.0 oz for 'Sunny' and IFAS 7193, respectively. Only IFAS
7193 produced an average fruit weight of 5.0 oz, but this was not significantly
different from those entries producing fruit with weights as low as 4.5 oz.
Cull production ranged from 29.9% for IFAS 7164 to 42.4% for 'Sunny'.
First Harvest (November 12, 1987): Earliness as judged by the marketable
yields obtained at the first harvest were similar for five entries (Table 4):
IFAS 7164 (57.0 cartons/1000 LFB), IFAS 7193 (51.6), IFAS 7182 (41.7),
'Regency' (39.8) and 'Castleking' (39.0). IFAS 7164 and IFAS 7193 were
significantly different from eleven other trial entries. Total marketable









yields ranged from 24.0 cartons/1000 LFB for IFAS 7181 to 57.0 cartons/1000 LFB
for IFAS 7164. When earliness was considered for each entry by the percentage
of marketable fruit harvested at each date the following entries produced more
than 20% of their total seasonal yield at the first harvest (Table 5): IFAS
7193 (27.3%), IFAS 7164 (25.3%), IFAS 7182 (23.6%), 'Castleking' (23.1%) and
'Regency' (21.4%).

Greatest extra large fruit yield was produced by IFAS 7164 (26.5 cartons/1000
LFB) which was similar to yields from IFAS 7193 (23.8) and 'Pacific' (16.1).
Average fruit weight ranged from 5.1 oz to 6.3 oz, with three entries equal to
or greater than 6.0 oz (IFAS 7193, 'Pacific', and IFAS 7164). Cull production
was greatest for 'Horizon' at 35.0% which was similar to cull production by
'Sunny' (31.4%), 'All Star' (30.3%), IFAS 7181 (29.6%), 'Duke' (26.8%), 'FTE
12' (26.1%), IFAS 7193 (23.8%), IFAS 7168 (23.1%) and 'Castleking' (22.5/).
Plant stand was below 75% for 'Sunny', however, it was not significantly lower
than 10 other entries.

Second Harvest (November 23, 1987): There were few differences among the trial
entries in total marketable yield at the second harvest (Table 6). Fourteen of
the 16 entries were not significantly different in yield. Ten entries were
similar in greatest extra-large fruit yield and all entries were identical in
the production of large fruit yield. Average fruit weight ranged from 4.4 oz
for 'All Star' to 5.1 oz for IFAS 7164 and 'Pacific'. Twelve other entries
were similar in size to IFAS 7164 and 'Pacific'. Cull production ranged from
20.3% for 'Floratom II' to 42.1% for 'Castleking'. Plant stands, influenced by
losses due to bacterial wilt (Pseudomonas solanacearum), ranged from 65% for
'Sunny' to 100% for IFAS 7168, with eleven entries greater than 90%.
Third Harvest (December 3, 1987): There were no differences among the entries
in marketable yield, extra-large fruit yield or large fruit yield at the third
harvest (Table 7). Marketable yield was greatest at the third harvest and
ranged from 56.8 cartons/1000 LFB to 98.2 cartonS/1000 LFB. Average fruit
weight ranged from 3.6 oz for 'FTE 12' to 4.6 oz for 'Horizon'. Fourteen
entries had fruit size of 4.0 oz or greater. Cull production ranged from 34.1%
for IFAS 7164 to 51.3% for 'FTE 12'. Plant stand ranged from 65% for 'Sunny'
to 97.5% for 'Horizon', with only six entries with plant stands of 90% or
greater.

Subjective Evaluations: All of the replicated entries and observational
entries were given ratings for horticultural characteristics at the end of the
season (Table 8). These ratings are from plots of 10 plants each. They are
intended only to provide general indications of the crop at a given location
and time.

Note: The information contained in this report is a summary of experimental
results, and should not be used as recommendations for crop production. Where
trade names are used, no discrimination is intended and no endorsement is
