The study was conducted at Olericulture Division, Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute, Gazipur, Bangladesh during summer season of 2021 to see the performances of yield and yield-related components of twelve heat tolerant tomato hybrids. Significant variation was expressed for days to first harvest (101.0 - 108.0 days), while maximum number of fruits per plant was calculated in F 1 2101 and F 1 2201 (9.5), followed by F 1 203, F1 2001, F 1 2303, F 1 2401 (9.0). The highest single fruit weight was estimated in F 1 2501 (195.5 g), followed by F 1 2101 (119.0 g), F 1 2201 (113.8 g), while the range was 33.1 - 195.5 g. The range of fruit yield was 7.9 - 38.7 t/ha, while higher-yielding hybrids were viz., F 1 203 (27.7 t/ha), F 1 2101 (35.5 t/ha), F 1 2201 (33.9 t/ha) and F 1 2501 (28.7 t/ha). Maximum TSS was produced by F 1 2501 (5.9%), followed by BARI Hybrid Tomato-8 (5.1%), F 1 1101, F 1 1903 (5.0%), with a range of 4.0% - 5.9%, while TYLCV infection and leaf sucking pest infestation varied from 0.0% - 10.0% and 3.3% - 16.7%, respectively. Thus, based on the performances of different yield and yield contributing traits, the hybrids, viz., F 1 2101, F 1 2201, F 1 2501 may be selected to develop heat tolerant tomato hybrid varieties for the farmers of sub-tropical regions.
