New Moonshadow tomato packs flavorful punch, offers better shelf stability | Agriculture

ITHACA — A brand new high-flavor, shelf-stable grape tomato is the newest selection launched from Cornell University aimed toward small farmers, natural growers and residential gardeners.

Moonshadow, a deeply pigmented purplish-red, rectangular tomato, was bred utilizing conventional crossing strategies and derived from a cross between a black grape tomato and a high-flavor orange grape tomato. It is the sixth selection within the Galaxy Suite, a colourful, multi-shaped group of medley grape tomatoes bred by Phillip Griffiths, affiliate professor within the School of Integrative Plant Science at Cornell AgriTech.
