Unwanted hybridization of the varieties of tomatoes (1)

[Ambiorix]

The varieties of blue tomatoes are responsible for hybridization realized by bumblebees and insect pollinators.

If I study the successive generations of seeds harvested on tomatoes resulting from flowers no protected from bumblebees, you will notice that the blue genes are transmitted by generations in generations.

IN 2010 , a plant of tomatoes in the shape of pepper was planted next to a plant of OSU blue and a plant of pineapple op. I obtained in 2011 with 3 seeds resulting from the same tomato a plant of osu blue, a plant of blue pineapple and a plant ofblue tomatoes in the shape of pepper


I studied the generations of tomatoes from several blue seeds of pineapple obtained in 2011 always in the presence of bumblebees and without protecting flowers.

In 2016, I can declare that bumblebees are very dangerous for all the not blue and blue varieties if flowers are not protected.
