Plant growth regulator’s impact on tomato crop (Solanum lycopersicum L.) growth and yield: A review

Abstract

Indian agriculture has become more scientific and mechanical through the use of inputs, such as plant growth regulators, which have a speedier effect on crop output and vegetative development in order to increase productivity and food safety. Because it is environmentally beneficial and takes less time to treat the plant, among other benefits. Vitamins and minerals are abundant in vegetable crops. Growth regulators must have a specific mechanism of action and be safe for the environment and toxicology when used in vegetable cultivation. Vegetable crops' physiological activity controls and, with the administration of a growth regulator, ultimately improves vegetable yield. The tomato fruit can be eaten raw, boiled, or processed into a variety of products, giving it a wide range of nutritional applications. Since it is a very important crop, increasing output in India is crucial, and the researchers benefit immensely from these adaptable resources. PGRs control vegetable activity, which ultimately improves vegetable yield.
