Abstract

This investigation was conducted to determine the shelf-life of 7 tomato cultivars (Yaiza F₁, 170 F₁, Simge F₁, 301 F₁, Belgin F₁, 225 F₁ and Elif 190 F₁). The harvested fruits were stored at 20°C for 9 days in polystyrene trays covered with stretch film.

The stored fruits were tested for weight loss, total soluble solids, dry matter content, vitamin C and pH value at three day intervals.

The effects of storage time between varieties were found to be significant.
The average weight loss reached 2.8 % on the 9^th day of storage.
Among the varieties, the highest weight loss was obtained from cv.
Simge F₁ and the lowest from cv.
Elif F₁ and a similar decrease in fruit size was also noted on the 9^th day.

Titratable acidity, total soluble solids and fruit firmness changed significantly according to variety and storage time.
Total dry matter content was affected by variety, whereas, vitamin C depended on storage time.
The change in pH of fruit juice samples was influenced slightly by storage time and variety.
