AB  - Tomato, one of the most produced vegetables in the world, is experiencing continuous
global increase in both production and consumption. Fruit quality traits are important for
fresh market tomatoes as well as for the processing industry. Despite the growing demand
for both fresh and processed tomatoes, consumers are not satisfied with the quality of
available fruits. The main objectives of the present work were to determine the
physicochemical characteristics [pH, total soluble solids (TSS), total titratable acids
(TTA), TSS/TTA ratio, DMC, lycopene, β-carotene, vitamin C, and total phenolic
content], as well as the antioxidant activity of 13 different tomato lines, and to identify the
most promising ones in terms of fruit taste and quality. Antioxidant activity was
determined using the ABTS and DPPH methods with Trolox used as the standard
compound. PCA analysis was conducted to identify group patterns. The results of PCA
analysis indicated a specific genotypic response in all investigated physicochemical traits.
Genotypes 2, 10, and 13 were identified as the best for fresh consumption, as they
exhibited the highest levels of compounds crucial for good taste, nutrition, and human
health benefits. The most promising genotype related to fruit quality attributes was
genotype 10 with the best TSS and TAA content and TSS/TAA ratio, which is important
for overall taste perception. On the other hand, genotype 9 showed promise for industrial
purposes due to its ideal pH value in the juice and good soluble solid content. High
antioxidant activity was characteristic of genotypes 1 and 2, and their consumption as fresh
tomatoes can be beneficial to human health. They also should be considered for further
evaluation as potentially interesting genotypes for abiotic stress research and selection
programs which can lead to the development of both superior fruit quality and stress
tolerant genotypes.
