TOMATO VARIETY TRIAL RESULTS FOR SPRING 1988
T. K. Howe, J. W. Scott and W. E. Waters1

Twenty fresh market tomato cultivars or breeding lines were evaluated in a
replica-td trial in the spring of 1988 at the Gulf Coast Research and Education
Center in Bradenton, Fl. In addition, ninety-three breeding lines and
cultivars were evaluated subjectively (no harvest) in observational plots.

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 lb/ton 0-20-0) was applied at 600 Ib/acre (Aug. 1988). Raised beds of
EauGallie fine sand were formed on February 9, 1988. The 30-inch wide beds
were spaced on 4.5 ft centers with seepage irrigation ditches spaced every 7
beds. Fertilizer included 15-0-30-2 (N-P205-K20-MgO) at 240 lb/1000 linear
feet of bed (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 36 lb N per 1000 LFB.
The beds were fumigated with methyl bromide:chloropicrin (67%:33%) at 36
lb/1000 LFB and mulched with black polyethylene film.

Transplant Production: All replicated entries (Table 1) and observational
entries (Table 7) were sown on January 7, 1988 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
12 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: Transplants were set in the field on February 25, 1988 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 a randomized complete block design for the replicated
(harvested) trial, and single 10-plant plots were used for the observational
trial. Heavy resetting was done on February 29, March 4, 7 and 10, 1988. This

was subsequent to high winds and low temperatures on February 27 and 28 which
caused dessication injury to the transplants, Shielded sprays of paraquat were
applied to the row middles for weed control. Plants were later staked and tied
without pruning. Weather information for the season compared to 33-yr averages
is in Table 2,

Crops were scouted for insect control throughout the season. Leafminer and
armyworm populations were the primary insects. Methamidophos, methomyl,
permethrin and Bacillus thuringiensis were applied on an "as needed" basis
following label instructions. Leafminer was a severe problem and was a factor
in scheduling only two harvests.

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 early in the season to control foliar bacterial disease.

Fruit of the replicated trial entries were harvested at the mature green stage
(or beyond) on May 23 and June 2. 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 (soe 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 7 and Table 8.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

Seasonal. Total marketable yields for the spring ranged from 163.7
cartons/1000 linear feet of bed (LFB) for 'Summer Flavor 6000' to 277.5
cartons/1000 LFB for 'NVH 4459' (Table 3). Four entries were similar to 'NVH
4459' in high yield, 'Regency' (245.2 cartons/1000 LFB), 'Bingo' (241.9),
'Bonita' (225.4) and 'FTE 12' (223.9). The range of total seasonal yields is
lower than in past spring trials, since only two harvests were conducted as
compared to three in previous years (1-6).

Highest extra large (and larger) fruit yield was produced by 'Bingo' (136.4
cartons/1000 LFB), 'NVH 4459' (131.4), 'PSR 76184' (112.9) and 'IFAS 7193'
(110.2). Average fruit weight ranged from 4.8 oz for 'FMX 86' to 6.2 oz for
'IFAS 7193'. Only 'IFAS 7193' and 'Bingo' produced fruit of 6 oz or greater
for a seasonal average. Cull production ranged from 13.0% for 'IFAS 7193' to
31.4% for 'Duke'. 'IFAS 7193' was the only entry with cull production less
than 20%.

First harvest (May 23, 1988). Earliness as judged by the marketable yields
obtained at the first harvest were highest for 'NVH 4459' with 170.9
cartons/1000 LFB which was similar to only 'Bingo' with 136.3 cartons/1000 LFB
(Table 4). These two entries also produced the highest extra large (and
larger) yield, 'NVH 4459' with 94.8 cartons/1000 LFB and 'Bingo' with 97.1









cartons/1000 LF8. These results are similar to spring 1985 and 1986 trials and
higher than spring 1987 (4-6).

When earliness of a variety was considered as the percentage of fruit harvested
at each date, more than 50% of their total seasonal yield at the first harvest
was produced by (Table 5): 'NVH 4459' (61.6%), 'Bingo' (56.3%), 'Summer Flavor
6000' (54.5%), 'Sun 984' (55.4%), 'Duke' (53.3%) and 'IFAS 7182' (52.7%).

Average fruit weight at the first harvest ranged from 5.2 oz ('Summer Flavor
4200' and 'Summer Flavor 6000') to 6.6 oz ('IFAS 7193'). Cull production
ranged from 16.7% for 'IFAS 7193' to 35.9% for 'Regency'. Plant stands wore
similar for all entries with the exception of 'Horizon' which had an average
plant stand of 80%, significantly lower than the other entries.

Second harvest (June 2, 1988). 'Regency' had the highest total marketable
yield at the second harvest (180.8 cartons/1000 LFB) (Table 6). All other
yields were lower and none of the remaining entries were sl gnirIafrtaly
different. The range of yield, 74,5 to 180.8 cartons/1000 LFB, was similar to
previous spring trials (3-6). Greatest extra large (and larger) yields were
produced by 'PSR 76184' (61.8 cartons/1000 IFB), 'Rcgency' (51.3), 'IFAS 7193'
(50.0), 'Bingo' (39.3) and 'NVH 4459' (36.5).

Average fruit weight ranged from 4.4 oz for 'FMX 86' and 'NVH 4459' to 5.9 oz
for 'IFAS 7193'. Cull production ranged from 9.6% for 'IFAS 7193' to 29.5% for
'FMX 86'. Plant stand was only significantly low for 'Horizon' at 75%.

Subjective Evaluations: All of the replicated entries were given ratings for
horticultural characteristics at the end of the season (Tables 7 and 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.

Observational Entries. Ninety-three entries wore given subjective ratings
(Tables 7 and 8) for plant types, fruit type and general horticultural
characteristics. These entries were not harvested and evaluations were
conducted with ripened fruit on the plants. Most favorable ratings for overall
fruit and plant characteristics were given to 'FTE 12', 'Suncoast', 'Sunre 7E-
660' and two cherry tomatoes 'Chello' and 'HMX 4817' (Table 7). Ratings which
indicated a lack of fruit defects were given to: 'IFAS 7209', 'IFAS 7212', 'NC
87194', 'NC 87408', 'NC 8642B' (cherry), and PSX 77684.

than 2 26/32 inches diameter; large (6x6) = 2 26/32 inches diameter; medium (6x7) = 2
18/32 inches diameter, cull = less than 2 10/32 inches diameter.

YMiean separation within columns by Duncan's Hultiple Range Test, 5% level.
