I grow both heirloom and hybrid tomatoes, and I haven't
particularly noticed this. Last year, like a lot of other
people in the northeastern USA, we had late blight and, in
fact, an heirloom tomato was the last to succumb (the
hybrids got it first).
Maybe it's true under different conditions, though.
