Abstract:
Zinc and Boron play an important role chlorophyll synthesis, auxin synthesis, protein synthesis, water uptake and photosynthesis likewise, Boron also effect on production and quality of tomato, because it required by the crop plant for the cell division, nucleic acid synthesis uptake of calcium and transportation of carbohydrate. The deficiency of both element causes different types of disorder during the crop period, So keeping in the above view the present investigation on foliar application of zinc and boron at different concentration i.e. for the Zinc 0.0%, 0.25%, 0.50% & 0.75%;and for the Boron 0.0%, 0.20%, 0.40% & 0.60%.The foliar application of zinc at 0.75% and for the boron at 0.60% found best results and so the significant effect for improving the yield attributes i.e. number of fruits per plant, diameter of fruit, weight of fruit, fruit yield per plant & yield of fruit per hectare; So, for the optimum yield above dose of Zinc and Boron is recommended for the production of tomato.
