Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect 4-CPA treatment increased the number of large tomato fruits relative to control in autumn and spring plantings.
- Intervention effect IBA treatment did not significantly change tomato fruit set relative to control in either season.
- Intervention effect Auxin treatments did not significantly change flower number per tomato raceme.
- Intervention effect 4-CPA produced the highest marketable tomato fruit yield.
- Intervention effect 4-CPA treatments produced the greatest increase in total tomato yield.
- Intervention effect 4-CPA treatments produced the greatest increase in parthenocarpic tomato fruit.
- Intervention effect Fruit set differed little between 4-CPA concentrations in both tomato cultivars.
- Mechanism Authors concluded tomato fruit setting response to temperature stress was auxin dependent.
- Intervention effect Authors concluded 4-CPA was more effective than IBA for tomato fruit setting.
