Assuming your columns are tab-separated.

Code:
perl -F"\t" -lane '$F[1]=~s/ //g;if ($F[1] =~ /([13]{1,5}tomatoes[13]{1,5})/) {$F[1] =~ s/.*?($1).*/$1/; print join ("\t", @F)}' file.tab

XmAddTabGroup(3X)														 XmAddTabGroup(3X)

NAME

       XmAddTabGroup - A function that adds a manager or a primitive widget to the list of tab groups

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>

       void XmAddTabGroup (tab_group)
	       Widget tab_group;

DESCRIPTION

       This  function  is  obsolete and its behavior is replaced by setting XmNnavigationType to XmEXCLUSIVE_TAB_GROUP. When using the keyboard to
       traverse through a widget hierarchy, primitive or manager widgets are grouped together into what are known as tab groups.  Any  manager	or
       primitive  widget  can be a tab group.  Within a tab group, move the focus to the next widget within the tab group by using the arrow keys.
       To move to another tab group, use KNextField or KPrevField.

       Tab groups are ordinarily specified by the XmNnavigationType resource. XmAddTabGroup is called to control the order  of	traversal  of  tab
       groups.	The widget specified by tab_group is appended to the list of tab groups to be traversed, and the widget's XmNnavigationType is set
       to XmEXCLUSIVE_TAB_GROUP.  Specifies the manager or primitive widget ID.
