FLORIDO-BACALLAO, Marilyn; CASTRO-REYES, Yaniel  and  ALVAREZ-GIL, Marta A.. ‘Mecha’, cultivar de tomate de mesa para condiciones tropicales. cultrop [online]. 2021, vol.42, n.4, suppl.1  Epub Dec 30, 2021. ISSN 1819-4087.

‘Mecha’ arose from the need for tomato varieties adapted to the Cuban tropical climate for open field planting. It is a variety that presents the Mi gene for resistance to nematodes and is tolerant to fungal diseases, such as Alternariosis. It has characteristics that allow it to be sown at the opening (seedbeds in August) and campaign closing (seedbeds in January).

Keywords : Solanum lycopersicum; variedad; mejora genética; hibridación; selección.
