An experiment was conducted in tomato during 2004 and 2005 at Agriculture Research
Station (Horticulture) Malepatan, Pokhara. The .experiment was conducted in factorial
randomized complete block design with three teplications. Five different ·cultivars
namely HRD1xHRD7, HRD1xHRD6, N5-162, NS-835 and Lapsigede as local check
were the first factor. Two different cold treatments and control were the second factor.
The eight days old seedlings were imposed 12 and 24 hours to cold treatment {14±1
°C). It was grown under poly house maintaining 90cm row to row and 60 em plant to
plant spacing. HRD1xHRD7 recorded maximum number of cluster (10.30) per plant
where as flowers (8.29) per cluster were recorded in HRD1xHRD6. The highest
average fruit diameter (42.91 mm) and weight (54.81 gm) were observed in NS-835.
Statistical highest yield (43.28 Vha) were recorded from HRD1xHRD7 but it was at par
with NS-162. None of tested cultivars were found to be therrno~sensitive.
