Abstract Objectives of tomato(Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.)quality breeding were
focused on good looking appearance, moderate size, even coloring, rich VC content, high
soluble solid content, high sugar content, high ratio of sugar and acid, high content of
lycopene and be able to tolerant to storage and transportation. This paper expounds the
relative review, genetic analysis and breeding progress about tomato quality; and analyzes
the existing problems in tomato quality breeding and future breeding objectives and
technological line.
