The experiment was done to evaluate the performance of twenty genotypes of tomato in the Horticulture Research Farm of the Department of Horticulture, Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh during Rabi Season of the year 2021-2022. Observations were recorded on five randomly selected competitive plants per replication for each entry on five randomly selected competitive plants per replication for each entry on nineteen quantitative and qualitative traits viz, plant height at 30, 60 and 90 days after transplanting (cm), number of primary branches, days to first flowering (days), days to 50 % flowering (days), days to maturity (days), number of flowers/cluster, number of clusters (truss) per plant, number of locule per fruit, pericarp thickness (mm), number of fruits per truss, number of fruits per plant, average single fruit weight (g), yield / plant (kg), fruit length (cm), fruit diameter (cm), total soluble solids (oBrix) and acidity (%). Among the genotypes used for evaluation Pusa Ruby (8.01 kg/plant) were observed to have higher yield per plant followed by Pusa Divya (7.33 kg/Plant) and Himsona (6.32 kg/plant), while the minimum was recorded in genotype Pusa Sadabahar (1.25kg/plant) followed by Kashi Sarad (1.57kg /plant) and Pusa Gaurav (2kg/plant). The minimum Pericarp thickness was found in genotype Pusa Upkar (3.25 mm), whereas maximum Pericarp thickness were observed in genotype Pusa Ruby (7.42 mm). For the minimum TSS (total soluble solids) was found in genotype Kashi Sarad (3.33) whereas, maximum TSS were observed in genotype Pusa Upkar (8.42). For the minimum Acidity % was recorded in genotype Kashi Amul (0.18%), whereas, the maximum Acidity % were observed in genotype Kashi Hemant (0.86%).
