Fertilizers applied to certified organic tomato culture
(SPRINGER, 2010)
The tomato culture demands large quantities of mineral nutrients, which are supplied by synthetic fertilizers in the conventional cultivation system. In the organic cultivation system only alternative fertilizers are allowed ...
Growth models and nutriente uptake curve of tomato BRS 1509 subjected to irrigation pulses
(2020-08-08)
Tomato is a high-scale production vegetable, being today the second most produced in the world. Brazil is the largest producer of tomatoes in South America, and its cultivation is one of the most important in the category ...
Nitrogen supply affects seed yield and quality in tomato plants
(2022)
Nitrogen fertilization is one of the main practices in agriculture and its effects on yield and quality of most commodity products are widely known. However, the nitrogen response in seed production is still not well ...
Silencing of the tomato Sugar Partitioning Affecting protein (SPA) modifies sink strength through a shift in leaf sugar metabolism
(Wiley, 2014-02)
Limitations in our understanding about the mechanisms underlying source-sink assimilate partitioning are increasingly becoming a major hurdle for crop yield enhancement via metabolic engineering. By means of a comprehensive ...
Circadian oscillation and development-dependent expression of glycine-rich RNA binding proteins in tomato fruits
(Csiro Publishing, 2014-01)
Glycine-rich RNA-binding proteins (GRPs) are involved in the modulation of the post-transcriptional processing of transcripts and participate as an output signal of the circadian clock. However, neither GRPs nor the circadian ...
