Salicylic acid in nutrient solution influence the fruit quality and shelf life of cherry tomato grown in hydroponics

Salicylic acid (SA) is a plant hormone that has functional effects in plant. This study was conducted to find out the effects of salicylic acid (SA) on cherry tomato fruit quality and shelf life. Different concentrations (0.13, 0.25, 0.50 and 1.00 mM) SA were added in nutrient solution of hydroponic...

The 0.50 mM SA treatment showed the lowest fresh weight loss 3.08% and the longest shelf life 25 days by reducing decay, fruits softening and fungal infection.
