Evaluating the Variability in Lycopene and Agronomic Characteristics of Different Tomato (<i>Lycopersicon esculentum Mill</i>) Genotypes

The study was aimed at generating data in breeding for tomato varieties with improved lycopene content. Different tomato genotypes were evaluated for variability in lycopene and agronomic characteristics. The lycopene content obtained ranged from 0.024 ±0.004mg/g to 0.190±0.008mg/g. LOO170 recorded...
