New tomato study reveals key traits for higher yield and quality! 🍅
Researchers studied 25 different types of tomatoes to see how their traits affect yield and quality. They found that traits like fruit size, weight, number of fruits per plant, and shelf life are linked to higher fruit yield. Some traits, like fruit length and thickness, have a positive impact on yield, while others, like buckeye rot, have a negative impact. The study also showed that certain traits, such as fruit weight and harvest duration, directly influence fruit yield. Overall, the research helps us understand how different tomato traits can affect the amount and quality of fruit produced.
