Recent development of tomato in Asia TBRT 6-8Feb2013, Chiangmai Narendra Singh
Asia – A diverse and geographically dispersed region • Tropical & subtropical (H&H and H&D) • India, ASEAN, • South China, Australia • Temperate (Cool to cold ) • North China, Korea, • Japan, Aust., NZ, Nth India • Wet (> 2,000 mm) to Dry (< 5mm) • Many languages & food habits & cultures • Rich to poor • GDP per capita from €0.5 k to € 27 k 5,000 km
Vegetables in Asia • Asia Fast growing Veg. mkt: 1.1 bn€ in 2011 to 1.5 bn€ by 2015 • Growth in JP/KR/AUS/NZ/TN is stable • ~ 5-25% growth in other market • SA&SEA total veg market is ~300 mn€ growing to 511 mn€ by 2015 • Market growth is ~ 20-45% in 5 years depends on countries • Value addition by new traits • OP to F1 conversion
Tomatoes in Asia SA&SEA vs Rest Asia • Originated in Peruvian & Mexican region • Introduced to Philippines by Spanish & spread thru SA • Domesticated in Asia and now is the biggest producer in the world • Tomato rank no.1 with approx 14% of total Asia veg. market • China stands no. 1 followed by JP,SA,KR, AU/NZ & ASEAN • Ranks no.2 in SA&SEA after Onion with ~ 9-10% of total veg mkt. The tomato was introduced to cultivation in the Middle East/Asia by John Barker, British consul in Aleppo circa 1799 to 1825.[5][6]

Types of Tomato Developed &grown in Asia • A . Indeterminate : ( contribute 71% of total tomato mkt) • Pink >200g : JP,CN, KR,TW • Red 160-200g • Protect : JP, CN,KR,TW,ML • Open Field : CN, AU • Indet. Red 90-120g,OF : ID,IN,VN, MM • Cherry/Grape : 35-50g, Rd,Ovl. Growing with low rate because of fruit quality • Small size ( 50-70g) : Stable, mainly in JP
Types of Tomato Developed &grown in Asia….. • B Determinate/ Semi Det.: ( contribute 29% of total tomato mkt) • Det,90-100g,RD/SQR/SQ,Red ( H&H, H&D) : IN,ID,PH,TH,BD,PK • Semi Det 90-110g,SQ/SQR (H&H, H&D) : IN, ID,VN,TH,MM • Det/Semi Det Acid Tom,70-90g, Flat/DOB : India • Det/SD Pink 40-60g : Thailand
Development in Tomato • Seed Production and Quality • Seed Production • Seed treatment • Seed coating and Palleting • Seed Germination • Variety / Hybrid development • High yield varieties • Wide adaptation • Hot & cold set • Disease resistance • Fruit Quality and Post harvest • LSL/ Keeping quality • Fruit colour • Transportability • Fruit Firmness • Cracking • Disease and Pest management • Diagnositcs • Screening technology • IPM • Fungicides & pesticides ☺ • Crop Management • Nursery raising • Agronomy • Cultivation Practices • Mulching, Pruning, Staking • Irrigation & Fertigation • Molecular Technolgy • Gene sequencing • Mol Markers • Fingerprint • QTL for polygenic traits
2000-2010 Hybrid & Trait Development progression 1990-2000 Yield, adaptation, fruit quality, & Strong Ty resistance and other disease resistance ( BW, EB, LB, Mi,St ) <1990 Yield and adaptation to off season cultivation & start disease resistance with mild TY, Tm,V F2 Concentrate on yield and agronomic traits • Det/Indetop variety • Introduction of hybrid • Short duration harvest varieties • Adapted in normal growing season ( winter or Rainy) • Grown mainly without staked • Poor keeping quality & less firm, no disease resistance • Low yield (10-15T/Ha) • Introduction of Semi Det hybrid • Long duration harvest hybrids • Extend season Adapt to off season • Mild Ty resistant • High yield and better firmness • BW tolerant • Better Yield & Strong Ty resistant • BW, TY, TM22, V,F2,Smt, EB, LB resistance • Improve keeping quality, Firm & LDT • F1 conversion faster • Enhance use of Markers

Advances in disease screening TYLCV Resistant Varieties & screening PM screening LB screening
Key Challenges.... • Yield, Yield and high Yield • Multiple disease resistance with better fruit quality • Hot and cold set with fruit quality • Strong BW,TY,EB &LB with fruit quality for both Det & Indet • Better resistance source for TY, BW, LB • Resistance source for emerging diseases & races ( TOSPO,CMV, ..) • Screening protocols and Year round screening • Molecular markers for polygenic traits • Agronomic practices & ( fertilizer, irrigation, spacing). Technical know how to grow in Protected culture • Seed production and seed quality • Post harvest technology • Quality & disease free seed production
