Abstract
Salinity aggravated the incidence of the calcium-related physiological disorder internal fruit rot in eggplants grown in recirculating nutrient solution. Affected fruits contained less calcium than normal fruits. Different ionic composition of nutrient solutions with high total salt concentration had no specific effect on the occurrence of internal fruit rot or on fruit calcium concentration, when electrical conductivities were identical. The calcium concentration of leaves was not reduced by salinity, even when the calcium level of the fruits was markedly depressed and most of them showed internal fruit rot. The K, Mg, N, P, N a, and Cl determinations did not reveal any significant differences between fruits with and without internal fruit rot, but the Mg concentrations were slightly higher in the diseased fruits. Salinity increased starch and sucrose concentration and reduced glucose and fructose levels in fruits collected at the first harvest. At that time, the incidence of internal fruit rot in the salt treated plants was pronounced.
