Abstrak. Tomat (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill) merupakan salah satu tanaman solanaceae yang berasal dari Amerika, Tomat menyebar ke negara-negara Eropa, selanjutnya menyebar ke Asia, termasuk Indonesia. Buah tomat cukup diminati oleh masyarakat sebab memiliki banyak manfaat karena kandungan gizi yang cukup kaya nutrisi seperti vitamin A, B, C, dan E, phytosterol, folic acid, antioksidan, lycopene, alpha dan beta karoten, serta potassium .
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengindentifikasi karakter agronomi pada pertumbuhan koleksi plasma nutfah tomat cherry di Aceh, sehingga memperoleh genotipe tomat cherry yang pertumbuhan baik dan produksinya tinggi di Aceh. penelitian ini menggunakan Rancangan Acak Kelompok (RAK) non faktorial, faktor yang diteliti meliputi 6 taraf genotipe tomat cherry. Peubah yang diamati yaitu tinggi tanaman, diameter batang, panjang daun, lebar daun, jumlah tandan pertanaman, jumlah bunga pertandan, dan jumlah buah. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa karakter agronomi genotipe TC putih terbaik pada para meter tinggi tanaman dan lebar daun. Genotipe TC kuning terbaik pada parameter diameter batang. TC pear mix terbaik pada parameter panjang daun. TC tropical ruby terbaik pada parameter jumlah bunga pertandan dan TC chung terbaik pada parameter jumlah tandan dan jumlah buah.

Characterization of Agronomic Characters in Germplasm Collection of Cherry Tomato Plants (Lycopersicum Esculentum Mill) in Aceh Eva Susanti1 , Nura2 , Siti Hafsah3 1Student of Agrotechnology Department, Faculty of Agriculture, Syiah Kuala University 2Lecturer of Agrotechnology Department, Faculty of Agriculture, Syiah Kuala University Abstract. Tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill) is a solanaceae plant originating from America. Tomatoes spread to European countries, then spread to Asia, including Indonesia. Tomatoes are greatly favoured by people because they have many benefits due to their nutritional content involving totally rich in nutrients such as vitamins A, B, C, and E, phytosterols, folic acid, antioxidants, lycopene, alpha and beta carotene, and potassium. This research aims to identify agronomic characteristics in the growth of cherry tomato germplasm collections in Aceh, leading to obtain cherry tomato genotypes that grow plentifully and increase the production in Aceh. In this study, it used a non-factorial Randomized Block Design (RAK), the factors studied included 6 levels of cherry tomato genotype. The variables observed were plant height, diameter, leaf length, leaf width, number of bunches planted, number of flower signs, and number of fruits. The results indicated that the agronomic characteristics of the white TC genotype were best in terms of plant height and leaf width. The best yellow TC genotype was for stem diameter parameters. The best TC pear mix was on the leaf length parameter. TC tropical ruby is the best in terms of the number of harbinger flowers and the best TC Chung was in the parameters of number of bunches and number of fruits.
