Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect The high N level gave early flowering and ripening in tomato.
- Intervention effect The high P level increased seed yield in tomato.
- Intervention effect P2K2 led to earlier flowering than P1K2 in tomato.
- Intervention effect P1K1 led to earlier flowering than P1K2 in tomato.
- Intervention effect The percentage of fruit setting was higher in P1K2 than in P1K1 in tomato.
- Observation 100-seed weight was highest for trusses 1 and 5 compared with the other trusses in tomato.
- Observation The N2P2K2T1 combination gave the highest 100-seed weight in tomato.
- Observation The N1P1K2T4 combination gave the lowest 100-seed weight in tomato.
- Observation The N1P1K2T3 combination gave the lowest 100-seed weight in tomato.
- Intervention effect Seeds from N2 plants emerged earlier than seeds from N1 plants in tomato.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that N2P2K2 was the most favourable combination for high fruit and seed yield, fruit setting percentage and higher seed weight in tomato.
