Summary

This study compared six cherry tomato (Solanum lycopersicum var. cerasiforme) lines - ‘Yellow pear’, ‘Red pear’, ‘Yellow lamp’, ‘Red olive’, ‘Big red orbicular’, and ‘Small yellow orbicular’ - grown under hydroponic and soil-based greenhouse conditions to identify superior genotypes for yield and fruit quality. The experiment was conducted during the 2023 winter-spring season in Borazjan, Iran, using a factorial experiment arranged in a completely randomized design with four replicates. Hydroponic plants (perlite:cocopeat, 40:60) received Hoagland solution, while soil-grown plants were supplied with a mixture of organic and inorganic fertilizers. Yield components (fruit weight, fruit volume, fruit set, and yield), growth (plant height), and biochemical attributes (vitamin C, total soluble
