Abstract: The present investigation was carried out at Horticultural Research Station, Mondouri, Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya during Rabi season of 2013-14 and 2014-15. The experiment consisted of four tomato varieties namely Pusa 120, Pant T ₃, Arka Vikash and Patharkuchi. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications. Most of the characters were found to be statistically significant with respect to variety. Only number of locules per fruit and germination percentage of seeds were found non-significant for the interaction of varieties and flower flushes. The variety Pant T ₃ had shown maximum seed yield (29.93 g plant-1) followed by Pusa 120 under its third flush (22.654 g). So it may be concluded that tomato variety Pant T ₃ may be grown with a view to get higher seed yield with particular emphasis to its third flush.
