An experiment was conducted to study the performance of parents and F1 hybrids along with two checks viz., Arka Rakshak and Arka Samrat for quality parameters. An experiment was conducted at College of Horticulture, Bagalkot, University of Horticulture Sciences, Bagalkot during kharif, 2018 in Randomized Block Design with three replications. Twelve diverse lines of tomato were crossed with four testers in line x tester mating design. The resultant 48 F1 hybrids along with 16 parents and two checks were evaluated for quality traits in tomato. The experiment results revealed that hybrid, L4 X T3 performed best for characters viz., fruit firmness (6.17 kg/cm2) and ascorbic acid content (29.98 mg/100g), L8 X T4 for pericarp thickness (7.48 mm), L5 X T3 (5.46 0 B) for total soluble solids, L12 X T4 for ascorbic acid content (31.37 mg/100 g) lastly for lycopene content the cross, L8 X T4 (11.91mg/100 g) were showed superior performance.
