Tóm tắt:Once considered poisonous, now considered essential, tomatoes are the West's most popular fruits and a primary source of nutrition amongst fruits and vegetables in the US, bested only by the potato by way of the deep fryer. Over 140 countries compete to meet the demand, and the market has broadened significantly to include greenhouse varieties, fast-food staples, fruit on the vine, and heirloom varieties for commercial or home growing. Jones (agronomy, U. of Georgia, Athens) updates this edition to include the most current research and practice for large and small growers producing fruit and seedlings as he covers the history of tomato culture, plant characteristics and physiology, seed and seedling production, fruit characteristics and grading, plant nutrition, field production in soil, greenhouse production, and pest identification and control. He also provides a glossary and handy summaries of characteristics and statistics for quick reference.
