Abstract
Time between flowering or fruit set of an individual fruit and harvest is important for planning and control of fruit load and yield of glasshouse tomatoes.
Short term yield prediction, for instance, can be based on achieved fruit set and predicted fruit growth period.
This paper describes the results of a number of experiments where fruit growth period is measured.
The effect of temperature was modelled.
This paper describes the main results of a study on growth and development of glasshouse tomato (de Koning, 1994)
