SURVIVAL, VEGETATIVE DEVELOPMENT, AND REPRODUCTIVE RESPONSE OF TOMATO PLANTS UNDER INTEGRATED AGROECOLOGICAL MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES IN OPEN-FIELD AND GREENHOUSE CONDITIONS
Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is a crop of high agricultural importance, whose performance in agroecological systems depends on the interaction between management strategies and environmental conditions. This study aimed to evaluate vegetative growth, relative chlorophyll content, and reproductive performance of tom...
