Grouping of determinate local tomato varieties on the basis of cluster analysis

The purpose of this paper is to classify the genetic proximity of a collection of 49 local determinant tomato accessions based on 18 quantitative indicators evaluated. By hierarchical cluster analysis they are grouped into 5 clusters. The classifications will increase the objectivity in the evaluation of accessions and the opportunity for application of different directions in the selection of tomatoes.
