Abstract
Genetic inferences on the performance of five tomato cultivars (Angela I.51 00, Floradade, IPA-05, Jumbo AG-592 and Santa Clara) and their p(p - 1)/2 h ybrids for production characteristics and fruit quality were obtained throu gh Hayman's methodology (1954). The results showed a favorable situation fo r breeding to production characteristics, but not for content of soluble so lids, total carotenoids, and content of betacarotene. The data evidenced lo w variability in the cultivars studied.
