Abstract

Among several vegetables, tomato (L. esculentum Mill) a member of family Solanaceae is one of most important crop next to potato cultivated throughout the world. Some reports on analysis of genetic variance for quantitative traits in tomato are available in literature but these are invariably based on either generation mean analysis involving a few crosses or models of second degree statistics developed assuming absent of epistasis. The Modified Triple Test Cross analysis of Ketat et al. (1976a & b) following Jinks et al. (1969) detects epistasis and estimates of additive (D) dominance (H) components of genetic variance with a high degree of precision using large sample of crosses.
