FIGURE 1.

Agronomic response of “Moneymaker” (MM) and two traditional varieties, “Tomate Pimiento” (TP) and “Muchamiel Aperado” (MA), to moderate salinity levels (50 mM NaCl). (A) Representative images of the fruits from the first truss showing the different fruit morphological characteristics of both landraces with respect to MM. (B) Fruit yield (g FW), fruit number, and fruit weight (g FW) from the first three trusses of plants grown in control and salt for 60, 70, and 80 days of 50 mM NaCl treatment. Values are expressed as means ± SE of seven plants per variety. Different letters indicate statistically significant differences according to Tukey’s test (p < 0.05).
