Variety traits

Germination — tomato (interspecific hybrids)

hybrids between Solanum lycopersicum L. and S. habrochaites S. Knapp & D.M. Spooner

For interspecific tomato hybrids, germination is a secondary indicator, as the success of obtaining plants depends critically on overcoming post-zygotic incompatibility barriers.

In the reference 8 varieties crop hybrids between Solanum lycopersicum L. and S. habrochaites S. Knapp & D.M. Spooner, where this is mentioned in the description.

When crossing Solanum lycopersicum and Solanum habrochaites, embryo abortion is frequently observed, which makes standard seed germination ineffective. To obtain seedlings, breeders use embryo culture techniques, extracting embryos from immature fruits and cultivating them on artificial nutrient media.

Seeds of the wild species Solanum habrochaites used in hybridization may require pre-sowing treatment with sodium hypochlorite solutions to improve germination. The final yield of viable plants in such hybrid combinations is determined not so much by germination energy as by the efficiency of in vitro laboratory tissue culture protocols.
