N2  - Inheritance of seven quantitative traits related to fruit yield and quality characteristics was studied in six intraspecific crosses of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) namely Campbell1327 x Floradad, Campbell1327 x Line 37, Campbell1327 x Homestead24F, Campbell1327 x Strain B, Line 37 x Strain B and Homestead24F x Line 37, in addition to their F2 and backcrosses generations. The significant test of mean squares indicated the presence of significant differences among crosses and populations within crosses for all studied traits except total fruit weight/plant, which showed insignificant differences among crosses. The Strain-B was the best parent for yield as number and weight of fruits as well as flesh thickness. In addition, the results revealed that the three types of gene action (additive, dominance and epistasis) were contributed to the genetic variability with different magnitudes for all studied traits
