description Grafting as a technique is gaining attention, and the production and demand for grafted vegetable plants have increased worldwide, especially for greenhouse cultivation. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of different scion × rootstock combinations or improving the yield of the tomato crop under greenhouse conditions. For this purpose, a scion of tomato cv. Libertador was grafted on two commercial tomato rootstock (‘Olimpo’ and ‘Armada’) and cultivated in a greenhouse in a randomized complete block experiment design, with four scion-rootstock combinations: vigor and resistance rootstocks, self-grafting and non-grafted plants. The yield and yield components were evaluated (number and weight of the fruits of extra, commercial, and non-commercial quality, weight per cluster, and weight per fruit).  Although vigor rootstocks produce less fresh fruit in the first harvests, from the seventh harvest onwards, the vigor rootstocks outperformed the other treatments in the accumulated yield by producing 37, 22 and 22% more yield, and 60, 30 and 40% higher number of fruits of extra quality in the resistance rootstock, self-grafted, and non-grafted plants. The fruits plants of vigor rootstock, self-grafted and non-grafted above 150 g, tend to have a cylindrical shape; however, fruits in the resistance rootstock tend to be flattened. The use of a vigor rootstock increased the yield of cv. Libertador, regarding the rootstock with resistance characteristics and controls, self-grafted, and non-grafted plants.

The fruits plants of vigor rootstock, self-grafted and non-grafted above 150 g, tend to have a cylindrical shape; however, fruits in the resistance rootstock tend to be flattened. The use of a vigor rootstock increased the yield of cv. Libertador, regarding the rootstock with resistance characteristics and controls, self-grafted, and non-grafted plants. La injertación es una técnica que ha ido incrementando en todo el mundo, especialmente en el cultivo de tomate en invernadero. El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar los componentes de rendimiento y el rendimiento de un cultivar comercial de tomate injertado sobre diferentes combinaciones de patrones de la región altoandina de Colombia; para ello el cultivar Libertador fue injertado sobre los patrones ‘Olimpo’ y ‘Armada’, y como controles se utilizaron plantas auto injertadas y no injertadas del mismo cultivar. Se empleo un diseño de bloques al azar con cuatro repeticiones y cuatro tratamientos: patrón vigor (‘Olimpo’), patrón resistencia (‘Armada’), autoinjerto y no injertadas. Hubo diferencias significativas entre tratamientos para el rendimiento acumulado. Las plantas de tomate injertadas en el portainjerto vigor produjeron 37, 22 y 22% más de peso de fruto, y 60, 30 y 40% más de frutos de calidad extra, en comparación con los tratamientos patrón de resistencia, plantas auto injertadas y no injertadas. Se observó que, si bien el uso de un patrón de vigor condujo a una menor producción de fruta en las primeras cosechas, a partir de la séptima cosecha, este tratamiento fue superior a los demás, en cuanto al rendimiento acumulado. Los frutos en el tratamiento vigor, auto injertos y plantas no injertadas que superaron los 150 g tienden a tener forma cilíndrica; mientras que, los frutos del tratamiento resistencia tienden a presentar una forma achatada. El uso de un portainjerto vigoroso aumentó el rendimiento del cv. Libertador, con respecto a los tratamientos portainjerto con características de resistencia y a los tratamientos control, plantas auto injertadas y no injertadas.
