The genetic parameters, character association and path coefficient analysis between yield and yield components of twelve exotic tomato genotypes were studied. The genotypes exhibited a wide range of variability for all the characters studied. The characters were also found to be highly heritable. High GAPM was observed for number of fruits per plant followed by average fruit weight. Fruit yield had high positive r(p) and r(g) with average fruit weight and fruit length. Fruits per plant, average fruit weight, fruit diameter, plant height and days to flowering also effect yield directly. The results indicate that for increasing yield, selection should be based on plants bearing more fruits of larger size and weight.
