What’a a hybrid tomato, and why would you want a list of them? A hybrid just means that someone cross bred different types of tomatoes in order to come up with a type of tomato that meets a specific purpose. Some people cross breed them to mature faster, some cross breed them to withstand certain diseases, and others breed them for color, taste and shape.
But please be aware of this fact: a hybrid tomato is NOT the same thing as a GMO tomato. GMO means genetically modified, which is different than standard cross breeding of plants that has been done for thousands of years, since the beginning of human civilization.
