“…The results obtained agreed with Salam et al (2010) who stated that application of micronutrient with NPK fertilizer exhibited higher weights of tomato pulp and fruit over NPK fertilizer alone. Further, Dube et al (2004) reported that the pericarp thickness of fruit was increased by application of micronutrients.…”

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of NK chemical fertilizers in combination with compost on the growth and yield attributes of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.). The pot experiment was done in a complete randomized block design possessing eight treatments with four replicates. Fruit weight, pulp weight, seed weight, total soluble solid, leaf area and dry weights of plat parts were taken and fruit yield was calculated. All the collected data were subjected to statistical analysis. The results revealed that there were significant differences in fruit and seed weights, total soluble solid, pulp weight, 100 seed weight, pulp consistency, leaf area and crop residue. In these parameters, higher mean values were recorded in chemical fertilizers (7.5

“…The highest dry matter of fruit (5.95) was observed from N 2 (Zn 4 B 2 kg/ha) treatment and lowest dry matter of fruit (2.31) was observed from N 0 (0 kg/ha) treatment. Salam et al [35] reported similar result. Dry matter content of tomato varied significantly due to the application of different concentrations of organic manure Table 4.…”

A field experiment was conducted at the Horticultural Farm of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka from October, 2017 to March, 2018 to study the effect of micronutrients in presence of different level of organic manure on growth and yield of tomato. There were four combinations of micronutrients viz. N 0 =0 kg Zn 0 kg B/ha, N 1 = Zn 2 kg B 1.5 kg/ha, N 2 =Zn 4 kg B 2 kg/ha, N 3 =Zn 6 kg B 2.5 kg/ha and four organic manure viz M 0 =0 ton/ha, M 1 =Cowdung (15 ton/ha), M 2 =Poultry manure (10 ton/ha), M 3 =(Cowdung 7.5 ton/ha+ Poultry manure 5 ton/ha). The Afsun et al.; AJAHR, 4(2): 1-13, 2019; Article no.AJAHR.50434 2 experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design with 3 replications and there were altogether 48 plots. Application of micronutrients and organic manure significantly influenced the growth, yield and size of the tomato. The highest yield (66.96 t/ha) was found from treatments N 2 and the lowest yield (25.69 t/ha) was obtained from treatment N 0 . Due to the application of organic manure, the highest yield (50.78 t/ha) was obtained from M 3 and the lowest yield (39.86 t/ha) was recorded from M 0 . In the case of combined effect, the highest yield (76.33 t/ha) was found from treatment N 2 M 3 and the lowest yield (24.60 t/ha) was found from treatment N 0 M 0 . So, the application of Zn 4 kg B 2 kg/ha along with Cowdung 7.5 ton+Poultry manure 5 ton/ha was the best for growth and yield of tomato. Economic analysis raveled that N 2 M 3 gave the maximum benefit-cost ratio (3.2). So, the application of Zn 4 kg B 2 kg/ha along with Cowdung 7.5 ton+Poultry manure 5 ton/ha was the best for growth and yield of tomato. Original Research Article

The yield and quality of tomato largely depend on soil and climatic conditions and also on variety. Plant growth regulators function as chemical messengers for intercellular communication. In tomato, different growth regulators and zinc play a pivotal role in germination, root development, branching, flower initiation, fruiting, lycopene development, synchronization and early maturation, parthenocarpic fruit development, ripening, TSS, acidity, seed production etcetera. The field experiment was conducted at Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University Farm, Dhaka, Bangladesh Islam et al.; IJPSS, 32(1): 1-9, 2020; Article no.IJPSS.54344 2 during October 2017 to April, 2018 to evaluate the effect of foliar application of IBA, GA3 and Zn on yield and quality of tomato [1]. Single variety BARI Tomato-14 and foliar application of IBA 5 ml/L, GA3 5 ml/l and Zn were used to conduct this experiment. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) having three factors and replicated three times. Data were collected on chlorophyll content of leaf, number of flowers cluster per pant, number of fruit per plant, yield per hectare, Vitamin-C content and TSS% content. A statistically significant variation was recorded in terms of the above characters about yield and quality of tomato. All the characters shows maximum result in treatment of T 7 (IBA+GA3+Zn).The treatment combination of T 7 (IBA 5 ml / L, GA3 5 ml / L and Zn 1 kg/ha) and T 4 (IBA 5 ml / L, GA3 5 ml / L) gave the maximum yield (100.00 t/ha) and the minimum yield (39.75 t/ha) was found from the treatment combination on T 0 (control). The highest Vitamin C content (113.10 mg/100 gm) and highest TSS (%) (7.000) were found from T 7 (IBA 5 ml / L, GA3 5 ml / L and Zn 1 kg/ha) than that of control under present experiment. So, it can be concluded that treatment combination of T 7 (IBA 5 ml / L, GA3 5 ml / L and Zn 1 kg/ha) is the best for yield and quality of tomato and can be tested further under different field conditions.
