Comparative Study of Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) Cultivation Through Organic and Conventional Farming

Comparative study of salt stress-induced physiological and molecular responses in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.)

Preliminary Study on Hepatoprotective Activity of Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) Pulp Against Hepatic Damage in Rats

Tomato was evaluated for its liver protective role against carbon tetrachloride (CCl ) induced liver 4 damage in Wister albino rats. Animals were orally treated with tomato pulp (20 and 40 mL/kg body weight) for seven days followed by intraperitoneal injection (2 ml/kg) of 50% v/v CC1 on the last day. The degree of 4 protection was determined by measuring levels of serum biochemical parameters ...

Worm castings-based growing media with biochar and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi for producing organic tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) in greenhouse.

Organic vegetable production has specific research and innovation requirements which are not shared by other parts of the food and farming sector. A pot experiment was conducted to investigate the interactive effects of few permitted organic inputs such as arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, biochar, and different ratios of peat:worm casting on tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) growth, mycorrhizal dep...

Sustainable Management of Root Knot Nematode Meloidogyne incognita through Organic Amendment on Solanum lycopersicum L

Aims: To evaluate the nematicidal potential of wild spinach powder in combination with fresh chopped leaves of different plants viz., Indian mallow, Mexican poppy, Ivy gourd, Trailing eclipta, Wild eggplant and Black pigweed against Meloidogyne incognita on plant growth characters of tomato cv. K-21. Place and Duration of Study: A glasshouse pot experiment was carried out in the Department of B...

Comparative genome analysis of Solanum lycopersicum and Solanum tuberosum

Solanum lycopersicum and Solanum tuberosum are agriculturally important crop species as they are rich sources of starch, protein, antioxidants, lycopene, beta-carotene, vitamin C, and fiber. The genomes of S. lycopersicum and S. tuberosum are currently available. However the linear strings of nucleotides that together comprise a genome sequence are of limited significance by themselves. Computa...
