Role of Excess Water in Tomato Fruit Cracking [PDF]
HortScience, 1995 Excess irrigation water was provided to spring crops of bag-grown greenhouse tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) to test the effect on radial fruit cracking. Varied numbers of emitters were placed in bags filled with soilless medium to provide different amounts of irrigation water. In 1990, all emitters provided water containing nutrient solution,

Fruit Processing, Seed Viability And Dormancy Mechanisms Of Persoonia Sericea A. Cunn. ex R. Br. and P. Virgata R.Br. (Proteaceae) [PDF]
, 2004 The morphology of the fruit and difficulties with fruit processing impose major limitations to germination of Persoonia sericea and P. virgata. The mesocarp must be removed without harming the embryo.

Studies on cracking in tomato fruits. I
Engei Gakkai zasshi, 1960 This study was made to determine the factors closely associated with the tomato fruit cracking in the summers of 1957 and 1958. 1. Although tomato fruit absorbed 0.6 to 2.4 grams of water at immersion in water, cracking did not occur unless it had approached to the pink stage. 2.

INFLUENCE OF SOIL TENSION ON TOMATO FRUIT CRACKING [PDF]
HortScience, 1992 Fruit cracking in tomatoes is a serious problem, particularly when trellis culture is used. Past studies indicate that fruit cracking is associated with fluctuating soil moisture levels. Soil moisture variations are influenced by irrigation practices, and an irrigation regime employing frequent applications of water will lessen variations in soil ...

Water loss in horticultural products. Modelling, data analysis and theoretical considerations [PDF]
, 2010 The water loss of individual fruit (melon, plum and mandarin) was analysed using the traditional diffusion based approach and a kinetic approach. Applying simple non linear regression, both approaches are the same, resulting in a quite acceptable ...
