“…This result is in full agreement with that of Kumar et al (2013) who stated that the number of fruits plant -1 increased with increasing phosphorous levels from 50 to 150 kg ha -1 in tomato. Similar result was also reported by many workers (Groot et al, 2004;Nawaz et al, 2012;Etissa et al, 2013) in tomato. The highest fruit yield was found in 120 and 80 kg P ha -1 applied plants due to production of highest number of flower cluster and fruits plant -1 (Table 2).…”

The field experiment was carried out at Bangladesh Institute of Nuclear Agriculture, Mymensingh during October 2017 to March 2018, to investigate the effect of different levels of phosphorus and mulches on growth, yield attributes and yield of tomato cv. Roma VF. Two factors: (i) Four levels phosphorus viz., 0, 40, 80 and 120 kg P ha-1 and (ii) four different mulches viz., no mulch (control), water hyacinth, rice straw and banana leaves. The experiment was laid out in two factors randomized complete block design with four replications. The effect of phosphorus levels and mulches on morphological characters: plant height, leaf number plant-1, reproductive characters: number of flower clusters plant-1, flowers plant-1, days to flowering and yield contributing characters: number of fruits plant-1, fruit length, single fruit weight and fruit yield both plant-1 and ha-1 was significant. The highest morphological and reproductive characters, yield contributing characters and fruit yield (71.98 t ha-1) were recorded in 120 kg P ha-1 followed by 80 kg P ha-1 (69.76 t ha-1) with same statistical rank. In contrast, the above morphological, reproductive, yield attributes and fruit yield (47.62 t ha-1) was recorded in control plant where no phosphorus was applied. Application of P @ 80 kg ha-1 was found suitable dose for tomato cultivation. Among the three mulches, water hyacinth had remarkable effect on plant growth and yield attributes which resulting the highest fruit yield (68.35 t ha-1) in tomato. So, we may use water hyacinth mulch with application of 80 kg P for maximizing tomato fruit yield during winter season for silty loam soil. SAARC J. Agri., 18(1): 153-160 (2020)

“…The relative importance of NAR and LAR in determining RGR depends on nutrient supply to the plant (De Groot and Marcelis 2004;Balliu et al 2007). De Groot and Marcelis (2004) reported that under severe N and P limitation, NAR was more important whereas under mild N and P limitation LAR was more dominant in determining RGR.…”

“…De Groot and Marcelis (2004) reported that under severe N and P limitation, NAR was more important whereas under mild N and P limitation LAR was more dominant in determining RGR. Balliu et al (2007) on the other hand concluded that both NAR and LAR determined RGR of plant species at low N supply while at medium N supply RGR was determined by LAR and not by NAR.…”

Observed genotypic difference in P utilization efficiency in soil grown potatoes led to the present study to investigate possible mechanisms of P utilization efficiency in potato genotypes grown in nutrient solution under three P regimes (low, medium and high). For all genotypes relative growth rate (RGR), leaf P content, net assimilation rate (NAR) and leaf area ratio (LAR) increased while P utilization efficiency and leaf starch content decreased at the two higher P regimes compared to the low P regime. The P-efficient genotypes CGN 17903 and CIP 384321.3 had higher RGR compared to the P-inefficient genotypes CGN 22367 and CGN 18233, which resulted from enhanced NAR rather than from LAR. Net photosynthetic rate was similar for all genotypes. However, for P-inefficient genotype CGN 22367, the lower NAR could be explained by increased leaf dark respiration. For P-inefficient genotype CGN 18233 we speculate that increased carbon cost of root respiration or exudation or both, caused low NAR, since leaf dark respiration of this genotype was similar to that of P-efficient genotypes.

“…It is known that nitrogen deficiency will influence genes involved in cell cycle organisation, photosynthetic response, metabolism, plant hormone signal transduction (e.g. abscisic acid, auxin, or jasmonate), transporter activity, and oxidative stress responses (Roggatz et al, 1999; de Groot et al, 2004; Menz et al, 2016; Hsieh et al, 2018; Halpern et al, 2019), and it is hypothesized, that photosynthesis and growth process might be impeded, which could lower the crop yield (Mu and Chen, 2021). Furthermore, nitrogen deficiency can stimulate remobilization of stored nitrogen and the release of ammonium via the biosynthesis of phenylpropanoids (Richard-Molard et al, 2008; Krapp et al, 2011).…”

Tomato is one of the most produced crop plants on earth and growing in the fields and greenhouses all over the world. Breeding with known traits of wild species can enhance stress tolerance of cultivated crops. In this study, we investigated responses of the transcriptome as well as primary and secondary metabolites in leaves of a cultivated and a wild tomato to several abiotic stresses such as nitrogen deficiency, chilling or warmer temperatures, elevated light intensities and combinations thereof. The wild species responded different to varied temperature conditions compared to the cultivated tomato. Nitrogen deficiency caused the strongest responses and induced in particular the secondary metabolism in both species but to much higher extent in the cultivated tomato. Our study supports the potential of a targeted induction of valuable secondary metabolites in green residues of horticultural production, that will otherwise only be composted after fruit harvest. In particular, the cultivated tomato showed a strong induction in the group of mono caffeoylquinic acids in response to nitrogen deficiency. In addition, the observed differences in stress responses between cultivated and wild tomato can lead to new breeding targets for better stress tolerance.
