Variety traits
Solanum lycopersicum L.
The lodging trait in tomatoes is directly related to the plant growth habit: indeterminate varieties require staking, whereas determinate and dwarf forms possess increased resistance to lodging.
In the reference 61 varieties crop Tomato, where this is mentioned in the description.
The biological susceptibility of tomato plants to lodging is determined by the cultivar's genetics. Indeterminate forms are physiologically unable to support the weight of vegetative mass and fruit vertically without the use of supports. In breeding for mechanical harvesting, the ability of the stem to maintain a vertical position serves as an important criterion that facilitates the operation of harvesting equipment.
A lack of lodging resistance leads to fruit contact with the soil, which triggers the development of fungal diseases and rots, reducing product quality. Excessive nitrogen nutrition is the primary agrotechnical cause of excessive stem elongation, which induces lodging even in varieties with a compact growth habit.
