Yuksel Seeds continues to expand its tomato portfolio with varieties tailored to the key needs of the market. The company introduces Pomeria, a new indeterminate mini plum tomato distinguished by its earliness, high yield potential, and a comprehensive disease resistance package, including resistance to Tomato Brown Rugose Fruit Virus (ToBRFV), making it suitable for autumn, winter, and spring production cycles.
Pomeria develops a vigorous plant with short internodes and an open growth habit. Its very early production cycle enables growers to enter harvest quickly. The fruits are mini plum type, weighing between 12 and 16 grams, with an intense red colour, uniform ripening, and excellent firmness. In addition to its outstanding flavour, the variety is designed for loose harvest and offers excellent post-harvest shelf life thanks to its thick, fleshy walls.
The new variety also stands out for its resistance to fruit cracking and microcracking, while maintaining a uniform fruit size throughout the entire crop cycle. Its excellent fruit-setting ability ensures consistent and stable production, even under challenging growing conditions.
Thanks to its outstanding adaptability, Pomeria can be grown under a wide range of cultivation conditions and is particularly recommended for early plantings, extending its production window beyond the traditional autumn, winter, and spring cycles.
In terms of disease resistance, Pomeria offers resistance to ToMV, Va, Vd, Fol 0-1 and Ff A-B, as well as intermediate resistance (IR) to TYLCV, TSWV, Ma, Mi, Mj, Ss, ToTV and Tomato Brown Rugose Fruit Virus (ToBRFV), providing growers with enhanced protection against the major diseases affecting tomato crops.
With this launch, Yuksel Seeds continues to strengthen its tomato portfolio for the global market. Pomeria joins the recently introduced Minizano and Tiziano, further expanding a product range focused on combining innovation, crop security, and commercial quality to meet the evolving needs of growers and marketers worldwide.
