Two trials of soilless truss tomato crops were realized in a glasshouse under low temperature conditions. Twelve varieties were examined in 2006 and ten in 2007. The behaviour of plants, the yield and the external, analytical and sensory quality of the tomato varieties under these conditions were analysed. Deformations of the trusses were recorded particularly during the first two months of harvest when the low temperature regime began before the bloom of the 3rd truss. The varieties Plaisance, Climberley, Altess and Idooll grafted on Maxifort performed best under these conditions. Climberley offered also the best compromise yield-sensory quality. This variety was also most appreciated by the consumers. Vitamin C and carotenoïd showed variety and seasonal variations.
