Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is one of the most cultivated vegetables both in Türkiye and in the world. Türkiye
is the 4th tomato producing country after China, India and the USA. According to consumer demands, tomato varieties
such as pink, beef, bunch, cocktail are grown. The main goals in breeding are high yield, quality and resistance to
stress factors, and molecular marker-assisted selection is a fast and reliable method, especially in determining the
presence or absence of resistance genes to biotic stress factors. In this study, the resistance genes determined for 339
advanced tomato lines, which have the potential to become parent lines due to their agro morphological characteristics
and disease resistance against Meloidogyne incognita (Root-knot nematode), Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV),
Tomato mosaic virus (ToMV) and Verticillium wilt in the plant material. 235 were homozygous resistant to root-knot
nematode, 172 homozygous resistant to Verticillium wilt, 201 homozygous resistant to TSWV and 211 homozygous
resistant to ToMV were determined. It has been seen that breeding programs can b e created with the results obtained.
