Abstract

An experiment was carried out to evaluate fifteen cherry tomato genotypes collected from various agro-climatic regions of India for their stability at three locations in Kashmir valley during Kharif 2019. Pooled analysis of variance for stability of genotypes for the quantitative traits revealed significant differences among the genotypes and environments for all the traits studied. The interaction component genotype x environment was also significant for all the traits. The genotypes stable for yield and most of the traits were SK-CT-13, SK-CT-14, SK-CT-15 and SK-CT- 21 and could be recommended to farmers for cultivation after further testing and evaluation.
