3. Variedades

El tomate es una de las hortalizas más comunes en todo el mundo. Es una planta solanácea que produce frutos de diversas formas, tamaños y colores. El hábito de crecimiento de las plantas de tomate se describe como determinado o indeterminado. Las variedades determinadas producen plantas compactas que dejan de crecer cuando fructifican en la yema teminal; las frutas maduran aproximadamente al mismo tiempo sin cuajado adicional de frutas. Las variedades indeterminadas resultan en enredaderas que producen frutas durante un largo período de tiempo, y las frutas no maduran todas a la vez. Las variedades indeterminadas requieren más apoyo, utilizando jaulas o espalderas, que las variedades determinadas.
