Effect of soil compaction on tomato growth, development, yield and quality in solar greenhouse
土壤紧实度对温室番茄生长发育、产量及品质的影响

The effects of soil compaction on growth, development, yield and quality of tomato in greenhouse are studied in this paper. The results show that with the soil compaction increasing, the plants grow and develop slowly, its yield, quality and flavor decline. While with the soil compaction decreasing, the plants grow and develop well, and the fruiting node place declines, water use efficiency (WUE) of leaves and yield of tomato fruits increase, the contents of soluble sugar, soluble protein, free amino acid in fruits increase and the quality, flavor and economic coefficiency of fruits are improved.
