Abstract

The objective of this work was to evaluate the productivity, classification and postharvest quality of fruits of tomato plants (cv. Gaucho), and graft these plants with plants of tomato hybrid (cv. Kaguemusha), by the method of terminal stake. Plants were grown in a greenhouse in the city of Pelotas, using randomized complete block design with 20 replications. Grafted tomato plants resulted fruits with highest average mass (g) and total phenols, compared to non-grafted.
