Other claims from this paper (19)
- Intervention effect MAP and CRF gave similar plant growth and fruit production in field-grown tomato.
- Intervention effect Foliar N, P, Ca and Mg concentration of tomato did not differ regardless of fertilizer treatment.
- Intervention effect Tomato plants fertilized with CRF had a greater leaf K concentration than plants fertilized with MAP.
- Intervention effect Foliar K concentration of tomato did not differ between fertilized and nonfertilized plants.
- Association Zn concentration in above-ground vegetative parts of tomato increased linearly as CRF increased.
- Intervention effect Magnesium ammonium phosphate gave greater above-ground biomass (excluding fruit stem weight) and fruit yield of tomato than any individual nutrient treatment.
- Intervention effect The hand mixture of fertilizer gave greater above-ground biomass (excluding fruit stem weight) and fruit yield of tomato than any individual nutrient treatment.
- Intervention effect Calcium sulfate gave a greater number and weight of tomatoes harvested than MAP.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen concentration in roots, stems and leaves of tomato did not differ among fertilizer treatments.
- Intervention effect N content of red tomato fruit was greater with the hand mix of fertilizer than with no fertilizer, ammonium sulfate or Mg oxide.
- Intervention effect In immature green tomato fruit, N content was greater with no fertilizer or Ca sulfate than with MAP or TSP.
- Intervention effect Phosphorus, K and Ca concentrations of tomato did not differ among fertilizer treatments in any tissue tested.
- Intervention effect Mg concentration of green tomatoes was greater with TSP than with ammonium sulfate or Mg oxide.
- Intervention effect Phosphorus and K content of green tomato fruit was highest with Ca sulfate and lowest with MAP or TSP.
- Intervention effect Iron and Mn concentrations of tomato did not differ among fertilizer treatments in any tissue tested.
- Intervention effect Zinc concentration in tomato leaves was greater with MAP, TSP, Ca sulfate or Mg oxide than with ammonium sulfate.
- Intervention effect Zinc concentration of green tomato fruit was greater with MAP than with the hand mix, Ca sulfate or Mg oxide.
- Intervention effect Iron content of tomato green fruit was highest with TSP and lowest with ammonium sulfate or control plants.
- Intervention effect Red fruit of tomato plants fertilized with the hand mix had greater Mn content than red fruit from any other treatment.
