Genes that influence yield in tomato
Yield is the most important breeding trait of crops. For fruit-bearing plants such as Solanum lycopersicum (tomato), fruit formation directly affects yield. The final fruit size depends on the number and volume of cell layers in the pericarp of the fruit, which is determined by the degree of cell division and expansion in the fertilized ovaries. Thus, fruit yield in tomato is predominantly dete...
متن کاملTomato Genotype in Relation to Nitrogen Utilization and Yield
Twelve different tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill.) genotypes were grown in a controlled greenhouse to determine the influence of genotype variation on the efficiency of nitrogen utilization and fruit yield. The results showed that the variation of genotype in tomatoes influences the utilization and assimilation of foliar NO3. The genotypes that proved highly efficient in this utilization w...
متن کاملEffect of Ultrasonic Atomizer on the Yield and Yield Components of Tomato Grown in a Vertical Aeroponic Planting System
Aeroponic planting is proved to be the one of the most efficient growing environments for many vegetable crops. In this technique, plants are cultivated in absence of soil and the required nutrients are directly supplied to the roots through a fogging system. In modern sprayers, water is atomized by means of ultrasound waves. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of ultraso...
متن کاملTomato Attributes and Their Correlation to Peelability and Product Yield
Although tomato paste research has received significant attention, relatively little effort has been addressed to optimization of value-added whole peel and diced tomato processing. Our laboratory has conducted research evaluating tomato attributes which may be indices of peelability and product yield. Eleven tomato varieties were harvested at USDA stage 4 (pink), USDA stage 6 (red) and red plu...
متن کاملRoot-synthesized cytokinins improve shoot growth and fruit yield in salinized tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) plants
Salinity limits crop productivity, in part by decreasing shoot concentrations of the growth-promoting and senescence-delaying hormones cytokinins. Since constitutive cytokinin overproduction may have pleiotropic effects on plant development, two approaches assessed whether specific root-localized transgenic IPT (a key enzyme for cytokinin biosynthesis) gene expression could substantially improv...
