Abstract :
This research was conducted to determine of yield per plant(kg plant^-1), dry matter content (%), fruit diameter (mm), fruit length (mm), fruit shell hardness (lb), pulp elasticity (lb), fruit shape and shape index value of 16 different processing tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) varieties under Çumra ecological conditions in 1998 year. According to the research results highest yields of per plant, dry matter content, fruit diameter, fruit length, fruit shell hardness and pulp elasticity, fruit shape index values were obtained from Brione, Platone, Arizona, Brione, Coudoulet and Arizona, Shasta varieties respectively. The highest fruit shell hardness and fruit pulp elasticity values were obtained from Coudoulet while the highest yields of per plant values were obtained from Brione.
