Fruit development of cv. ‘Micro-Tom’. (A) Flowering (0) and fruit at 10, 14, 18, 22, 26, 34, and 42 d after flowering (DAF) grown under control conditions. In this work, fruit at 10–14, 18–26, 34, and 42 DAF were defined as immature green, mature green, yellow, and red stages, respectively. (B) Fresh weight (shaded bars) and brix (%) (black circles) of red-ripe fruit grown under control (0 mM NaCl) and various salinity conditions (80–160 mM NaCl). Right and left vertical axes correspond to brix (%) and fresh weight, respectively. Values are means ±SD (n=50). Different letters indicate statistical significance of means estimated using Fisher's PLSD test (P <0.05).
