Abstract

The present study was carried out during spring season 2010 to evaluate the effect of Etherl solution of 1000ppm in the first experiment on the maturation of tomato fruit cultivar ((Falcato) in room temperature. the first was treated by immersion in Etherl and without immersion .The results of this experiment was indicated that treating the fruit with Etherl without immersion was better for coloration of the fruit and combined with less fruit loss. In the second experiment the fruit was treated with Etherl with the same concentration without immersion and a treatment with calcium chloride (4%) solution with immersion and, and a treatment with water only (control). The results of the second experiment indicated treating tomato fruits of this variety with also without immersion also reduced fruit loss weight and gave better coloration in compression with other treatment. In addition, treating fruit with Etherl without immersion decreased fruit firmness and increased TSS in contrast the acidity of the fruit, that means that Etherl treatment shortened the period of fruit ripening.
