Abstract

‘Ohio OX38’ is a main-season processing tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) hybrid adapted for machine harvest and bulk handling, suited for the production of peeled, coreless, whole-canned tomato (whole-pack), as well as juice and pureed products. Extensive test hectarages have been grown in the midwestern United States. The cultivar has been well received by growers and processors and is already being grown extensively.
