As a result of the analysis of the reaction of tomato genotypes to the culture filtrates (CF) of Alternaria alternata, Fusarium oxysporum, F. solani fungi, it was found that in the most cases they had a negative influence on seed germination. An inhibition of less than 15% in all FCs studied was recorded in the Flacăra, Mary Gratefully and L 10 B varieties, thus showing interest in the breeding process as possible donors of complex resistance to the seed germination stage. Root and stem growth in the evaluated varieties and lines was most strongly influenced by F. solani and A. alternata. The lowest sensitivity of root and stem to FC was recorded at L 66. The climatic conditions of the 2019 year have significantly influenced the general harvest of tomatoes. The highest productivity was recorded in the varieties Mary Gratefully (31.5 t/ha), Rome (30.3 t/ha) and L 71 lines (32.2 t/ha), that can be successfully used in the breeding when creating new varieties with high adaptability to the pedoclimatic conditions.
