Research Abstract

The present work was conducted in 2013/2014 at Agriculture Research Station, Hada Al-Sham, King Abdul-Aziz University, to study genetic variability and traits correlation among 100 F2 individuals of tomatoes. The F2 population derived from crosses between two tomatoes accessions LA1421 (as male) and LA2711 (as female). LA2711 (LycopersiconesculentumvarEdkawi)considered as high growth vigor, medium yield, salinity tolerance, and big, high TSS% and misshaped fruits. LA1421” (Lycopersiconesculentum.varcerosiforme)considered as medium growth, low fruit yield, and uniform, compact, high lycopene contents and small size fruits. The genetic variability was estimated by measuring genetic variance (VG), phenotypic variance(VP), phenotypic co-efficientof variance (PCV), genotypicco-efficient ofvariance (GCV), broad sense heritability (
