Özet

Agriculture is at the forefront of the sectors that will be most affected by climate change. It is inevitablethat Turkey is exposed to the negative effects of climate change due to its geographical location. Thedevelopment of new high temperature tolerant varieties is seen as an important economic measure in theadaptation to climate change. In this study, heat temparature tolerant tomato genotypes were investigated fortheir fruit mineral content. For this purpose, twenty tolerant tomatoes from the gene pool of the ÇukurovaUniversity, Department of Horticulture the and two commerical cultivars were grown in the open field conditionsduring 2016 spring and summer periods in Adana, Turkey. Tomato fruits grown under control and hightemperature stresses conditions were analyzed for phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron,manganese, copper and zinc. According to heat stress effects on the tomato fruit mineral content, the macronutrientswere ordered P, K, Ca, Mg from the least affected to the most affected. Moreover, the micro-nutrientswere ordered Cu, Fe and Zn from the least affected to the most affected. In the present study heat tolerant tomatogenotypes showed better performance and their mineral content most cases were higher than mineral content ofthe control trade cultivars.
