Seven different rootstocks were taken and horticulturally superior scion Avtar was used as scion. The grafted seedlings were transplanted in a randomized block design having three replications. The rootstocks used significantly affected the yield as well as quality of the tomato. The brinjal rootstock VI034845 recorded maximum number of fruits (35.66), fruit yield (2.14kg), plant height (205.66 cm), highest ascorbic acid (31.25 mg/100gf), TSS (6.23% and pericarp thickness (4.16mm).
