Compositional characteristics of seven lines of tomatoes have been determined. The following parameters were evaluated: dry matter, acidity (citric acid equivalent), Ca-pectate, ash, cellulose, sugars (total, reducing sugars, sucrose), mineral substances (N, P, K, Ca, Na), surface color and carotenoid content. From a compositional viewpoint, there were no significant differences between lines, but in cellulose, sucrose, mineral substances, carotenoid content, and surface colour parameters, a*, b*, L and h°.
