Overview

Investigation reveals genetic divergence among 35 tomato genotypes, suggesting hybridization opportunities.

Key Points

  • Genetic divergence is observed between genotypes in clusters IV and III, VI, indicating potential for improved traits.
  • Clusters IV and V show ample genetic divergence, with cluster I and II being closely related, requiring selective breeding.
  • The assessment involved 35 tomato genotypes grouped into six clusters based on various traits.
  • Initiating a hybridization program with divergent parents could enhance the recovery of superior traits.
