الوصف: This study was conducted to investigate the effects of foliar spraying with boron and calcium on the qualities of light red maturity-stage ‘Unicorn’ cherry tomato. Increased cell -wall compactness was observed after boron (B) + calcium (Ca) treatment. The respiration rate was lowest in B + Ca-treated tomato fruits at harvest time and after storage. Firmness increased and was retained during the storage period in B + Ca treated tomato fruits. The least fresh weight loss and best shelf life were observed in B + Ca-treated tomato fruits. The vitamin C content was higher in B + Ca-treated tomato fruits than in the control. These results indicate that B + Ca treatment increases cell -wall compactness, reduces the respiration rate, reduces fresh weight loss, increases shelf life, maintains flesh firmness, and increases vitamin C content in cherry tomato.
