Influence of mineral oil mixing with the fungicides Flint or Trifmine on tomato yield properties in greenhouse


Abstract in English

To evaluate the effects of summer mineral oil which were mixed with tow systemic commercial fungicides Flint and Trifmine on some tomato yield properties in Syrian coast greenhouse conditions, the tow fungicides were supplied at the recommended doses (mixed with mineral oil or not), the results showed no negative effctes on the plant flowers, fruits, fruit's weight through the study; there were 71.0-75.0 fruits on each plant and fruit's weight was 75.3-87.2 g/one fruit in treatments which fungicides were not mixed with mineral oil, 69.1-76.4 fruits on each plant, 74.8-81.2 g/one fruit in treatments which fungicides were mixed, compairing with 62.2 fruits/plant in control, 87.6 g/fruit in control, differences were not significant.
