Additional evaluation criteria used were greenhouse cultivation and resistance to Verticillium dahlia, Fusarium oxysporum, Cladosporium fulvum, Tomato Mosaic Virus, and Oidium lycopersium.

Tests & Trials: Trials for 'Annamay' were conducted in Oxford Station, Ontario during 2009 and 2010. The trial included 27 plants per variety and grown in a greenhouse. The plants were grown in 22 cm diameter pots, spaced 50 cm apart.
