Abstract

---

The effect of foliar sprays of naphthaleneacetic acid (-NAA) . 5.10. 15. 20 and 25 ppm at the time of 50% flowering on T-10, summer giant and Roma VF tomato varieties was investigated . the yields in all the three cultivars significantly increased with increasing concentrations but summer giant gave the highest yield and number of fruits at 25 ppm NAA treatment . the increase in yield was due to an increase in the number of fruits remained and not due to increase in fruit size.
