“…Zinc is a essential micronutrient which responsible for maximizes fruit set and higher yield. Similar results were reported by Ali et al (2015) in tomato where significantly increased yield of fruits per plant (1.9 kg) with increasing concentration of zinc at 25 ppm as compared to other treatments.…”

The present investigation “Studies on effects of graded levels of zinc and Trichoderma viride, Pseudomonas strita on yield and quality attributing characters in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.)”. The experiment was laid out in Factorial RBD with two factor i.e. factor first is zinc solubilizers and factor second is levels of zinc, it has twelve treatments replicated three times. Trichoderma viride and Pseudomonas strita are used as source zinc solubilizers along with different levels of zinc. The experiment framed was intended to study the effect of zinc solubilizers and levels of zinc on yield and quality of tomato.The results revealed that effect of zinc solubilizers on yield and quality parameters of tomato indicated that the zinc solubilizer B2 (Trichoderma viride) recorded maximum fruit yield per plant (1458.76 gm), fruit yield per plot (20.42 kg), fruit yield per hectare (567.15 qt.), maximum titrable acidity (0.38 %), TSS (5.22%), ascorbic acid (22.81 mg/100gm), reducing sugars (1.61 %), non reducing sugars (2.70 %), totalsugars (4.31 %). The effect of different levels of zinc on yield and quality parameters of tomato indicated that the levels of zinc Zn3 (30 kg ZnSO4/ha) recorded maximum fruit yield per plant (1305.09 gm), fruit yield per plot (18.26 kg), fruit yield per hectare (507.43 qt.), maximum titrable acidity (0.36 %), TSS (4.77%), ascorbic acid (22.04 mg/100gm), reducing sugars (1.48 %), non reducing sugars (2.61 %), total sugars (4.09 %).The interaction effect of different zinc solubilizers and levels of zinc on yield and quality parameters of tomato indicated that the B2Zn3 (Trichoderma viride + 30 kg ZnSO4/ha) recorded maximum fruit yield per plant (1698.33 gm), fruit yield per plot (23.77 kg), fruit yield per hectare (660.27 qt.), maximum titrable acidity (0.43 %), TSS (5.39%),ascorbic acid (23.35 mg/100gm), reducing sugars (1.71 %), non reducing sugars (2.80 %), total sugars (4.51 %).

“…Similar results were also reported by Vinod ), Basavarajeswari et al, (2008, Sivaiah et al, (2013), Banerjee et al, (2016), Praveen , Ali et al, (2015), Acharya et al, (2015) and Parmer et al, (2016) in different crops. Plant height may be increased due to application of zinc which plays major role in synthesis of auxin besides the association of boron with development of cell wall and cell differentiation which helps in root and shoot growth of plants (Basavarajeswari et al, 2008;Sharma and Grewal, 1988).…”

“…Makhan et al [13] reported that Zinc may serve as source of energy for synthesis of auxin which helps in elongation of stem. Ali et al [14] conducted an experiment to increase the yield of BARI hybrid tomato 4, cultivated in summer season of Bangladesh, foliar application of zinc and boron and supported the similar results.…”

An experiment was conducted at the Horticulture Farm of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka during the period from October 2017 to April 2018. The present research was aimed to study effect of combinations of zinc and boron with fruit thinning on the quality seed production of tomato. There were four combination of zinc and boron viz. T0 =Zn0 kgB0kg/ha, T1=Zn2 kg B1.5 kg/ha, T2=Zn4kg B2 kg/ha, T3=Zn6B2.5 kg/ha and four levels of fruit thinning viz. P0= control (without fruit thinning), P1= 10 fruits were retained per plant, P2=20 fruits were retained per plant and P3 =30 fruits were retained per plant. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design with 3 replications and there were altogether 48 plots. Application of micronutrients with fruit thinning significantly influenced the growth and seed yield of tomato. The highest seed yield (297.82 kg/ha) was found from T3 and the lowest yield (260.69 kg/ha) was obtained from T0. Due to the fruit thinning, the highest seed yield (337.41 kg/ha) was obtained from P3 and lowest yield (190.69 kg/ha) was recorded from P1. In case of combined effect, the highest yield (360.39 kg/ha) was found from T3P3 and lowest yield (180.39 kg/ha) was found from T0P1. So, application of Zn6 kg B2.5 kg/ha along with 30 fruits were retained per plant was the best for yield of tomato seed.
