Evaluación agronómica de tomates silvestres (Solanum pimpinellifolium) en diferentes condiciones ambientales como alternativa de biocomercio

Abstract

Abstract:This work was developed with the objective of evaluating the productivity of four wild tomato (Solanum pimpinellifolium) accessions, including comparative material (S. lycopersicum), under different environmental conditions, as a biotrade alternative. For this purpose, five treatments (plant materials) were established per environmental condition. A morphological characterization was carried out for the protected and semi-protected system, evaluating 11 quantitative morphological and 2 phenological characters. With the data obtained, an Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was performed to establish differences between plant materials and between growing conditions, identifying those characters with the greatest incidence in these differences (p>0.005); where there was no normality, the Kruskall Wallis analysis was used to identify the accession or variety that showed differences. It was concluded that protected conditions are the best production option, and the wild accession sp. 10 is the most productive, especially in terms of fruit number and weight. In addition, due to its phenological behavior. Additionally, a literature review was carried out on the national regulations for the production and commercialization of S. pimpinellifolium fruits as a wild species and as an alternative for biotrade.
