- Intervention effect Combined 2,4-D and GA3 increased tomato fruit length from 5.44 to 6.72 cm.
- Intervention effect 2,4-D increased tomato fruit weight by 13%.
- Intervention effect GA3 alone or with 2,4-D reduced tomato fruit weight.
- Intervention effect 2,4-D and GA3 increased fruit pericarp thickness by about 50%.
- Intervention effect Combined 2,4-D and GA3 increased acidity, soluble solids, and lycopene.
- Intervention effect 2,4-D lowered tomato fruit pH.
- Intervention effect GA3 had no effect on fruit pH.
- Intervention effect The spray treatments significantly improved final tomato fruit yield over control.
- Intervention effect Roma VF yielded 67.92 ton ha-1 with 15 mg l-1 GA3 without 2,4-D.
- Intervention effect Fetan marketable yield reached 74.39 ton ha-1 with 10 + 15 2,4-D and GA3.
- Intervention effect Fetan marketable yield reached 74.20 ton ha-1 with 5 + 0 2,4-D and GA3.
