Variety description

10 August 2026

The Melville RZ F1 hybrid is a balanced plant that forms round fruits with slight ribbing. The weight of a single fruit is 240–260 g. The fruits are distinguished by high density, uniformity in the cluster, and a red color.

The plant possesses high resistance (HR) to Tomato brown rugose fruit virus (ToBRFV), Tomato mosaic virus (ToMV:0-2), Fusarium wilt (Fol:0,1), Fusarium crown and root rot (For), and Leaf mold (Pf:A-F,H). Intermediate resistance (IR) is noted to powdery mildew (Pn).

This hybrid is intended for cultivation in professional greenhouses using artificial lighting. During cultivation, it is recommended to thin the cluster to three fruits.
