Genomic selection (GS), which uses estimated genetic potential based on genome-wide genotype data for a breeding selection, is now widely accepted as an efficient method to improve genetically complex traits. We assessed the potential of GS for increasing soluble solids content and total fruit weight of tomato. A collection of big-fruited F<sub>1</sub> varieties was used to construct the GS models, and the progeny from crosses was used to validate the models. The present study includes two exper ...[more]
