“…The similar results reported [15] that the hybrids Punjab Sartaj X EC163605 and Punjab Sartaj X IIVR BT-10 were recorded the highest values for fruit quality and biochemical traits viz., pericarp thickness, fruit firmness, shelf life, ascorbic acid, titratable acidity, lycopene and β carotene 4). This study is agreed with the results obtained in tomato [15,[16][17][18].…”

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is an economically important vegetable crop in the globe and affected by various biotic and abiotic stresses to which the plants were exposed during growth. In this study, three tomato hybrids viz., Arka Abeth, CoTH4 4 and Sivam were evaluated the resistant to pest and diseases including biochemical analysis and yield assessment. The experiment results revealed that highest average yield was recorded in Arka Abeth (712.7 q/ha) followed by CoTH4 4 (650.01 q/ha) and lowest in Sivam (574.58 q/ha). Regarding pest and disease, Pin worm was recorded 21.8 % to 41.6% and leaf miner damage was recorded 8.25 % to 12.80 %, Leaf curl virus disease incidence was 0.40 % to 0.61% and wilt incidence was 7.30% to 13.65%. Among the three tomato cultivars arka abeth was performed higher in the biochemical parameters such as ascorbic acid (38.2 mg/ 100g) and lycopene (3.01 mg/100g).

“…"Anara Adazi" has a number of dominant characteristics. This was also in line with the view of Ilodibia et al 10 that the result of hybridization is a new hybrid which has the attributes of the two parents, though the attributes shown in the hybrid relate more to one parent than the other. In addition, the F 1 hybrid however manifested an expression of heterosis and possesses fruits that are shorter than that of S. aethiopicum var.…”

Background and Objective:The desire for modification of valuable crop species for human nutritional fulfilment and economic growth is essential. Two cultivars of Solanum aethiopicum L. found in Anambra State were hybridized to raise an F 1 that might combine the attributes of the parental lines for enhancement in yield and biochemical contents for health nutritional requirements. Materials and Methods:The emasculation method was adopted, using Solanum aethiopicum var. "Anara Adazi as the female parent and transference of functional pollen from Solanum aethiopicum var. "Anara" to the stigmas of the emasculated plant at the correct time. Nutrient analysis of the fruits of F 1 and the parental plants was carried out using the standard method. Analysis of variance was used for data analysis. Results: Results revealed that parental plants and F 1 contained investigated nutrients in varied amounts. Ash content, crude fiber and protein were higher in the fruit of F 1 hybrid (10.90±0.11, 21.50±1.51 and 5.01±0.24), respectively when compared to the fruits of the parental plants. Conclusion: Data obtained indicated that when two Solanum aethiopicum plants of different but closely related cultivars are crossbred, a new hybrid that possesses enhanced characteristics of the two parent plants is produced. Results of the nutrient analysis demonstrated that hybridization could significantly increase food nutrients in eggplant (Solanum aethiopicum).

“…Correspondingly, the result of the study (Figure 6) Fruits of parents compared with the fruit of F1 indicated that Solanum aethiopicum var "Anara Adazi" has a number of dominant characters.
