Plant Growth Regulators
Plant Growth Promoters – They promote cell division, cell enlargement, flowering, fruiting and seed formation. Examples are auxins, gibberellins and cytokinins.
Plant Growth Inhibitors – These chemicals inhibit growth and promote dormancy and abscission in plants. An example is an abscisic acid.
Tamarind: Tamarindus indica is a common fruit tree of the tropics. Leaves, fruit, seeds hold various properties used in healing of diseases in herbal medicine.

Though concrete of historical records , tomato was fist introduce in the 1600 in Europe. It is believed that tomato was introduced in India during British period in the year 1828 by Royal Agri-Horticultural society , Culcutta. The story of tomato transformation from an exotic fruit to a popular dietary item and a major item of commerce all over the world. As recently as 1900,tomato was avoided in the belief that it was poisonous because of its known relation to Nightshade and other toxic members of the nightshade family. The tamotine is a predominant alkoloid mainly present in foliage and green fruits. However, at the stage of ripening, tomatine is degraded into an inert compound which is not toxic.

6. Botany
It is the only hexaploid (6x = 90) in this section
its origin is unknown
Section Batatas contains approximately 12
other species
most are diploid (2n = 30)
a few tetraploids (4x = 60).
Tetraploid sweet potatoes have been collected
in the wild although rarely
Ipomoea trifida, a diploid, is purported to be
one of the likely progenitors of sweet potato.
7. Botany
Species in section Batatas have been
shown to contain unreduced gametes
the derivation of the hexaploid sweetpotato
remains a mystery
The major center of diversity for I. batatas:
northwestern South America (northern Peru,
southern Ecuador)
sub-Saharan Africa
Papua New Guinea
Indonesia
8. Morphology
leaves
ovate-cordate
borne on long petioles
palmately veined
angular or lobed
depending on variety
green
purplish.
9. Morphology
flowers rare, especially in US
like common morning glory
white or pale violet
axillary
funnel-shaped
borne singly or in cymes on short peduncles;
pods round; seeds 1–4 per pod, flattened, hard-coated,
angular.
10. Germplasms
Reported from
the Indonesia-Indochina
Middle and South American Centers of Diversity
more than forty cvs that have been grown in
the US, about 10 are of commercial value
two categories:
food types
feed types.
further divided into dry or firm types and
moist or soft types.
14. Varieties
The present outstanding soft-fleshed cvs
'Porto Rico',
'Nancy Hall',
'Triumph', and
'Australian Canner';
firm-fleshed types
'Big-stem Jersey',
'Yellow Jersey',
'Maryland Golden', and
'Orlis' (Jersey orange).
15. Ecology
Sweetpotato is cultivated
in tropical
subtropical lowland agroecologies
The crop will grow with between 15°C and 35°C
Storage roots are sensitive to changes in soil
temperature depending on stage of root
development
a drought-tolerant crop
deep rooted
developing storage roots under very dry conditions
grow best in a sandy loam, well-drained soil
have been produced at altitudes >2000m and as
far north as Canada.
16. Morphology
Tuberous-rooted perennial,
usually grown as an annual
top herbaceous
drying back to ground each year
stems forming a running vine up to 4 m
long
usually prostrate and slender with milky
juice
lateral stem-branches arising from the
short stem
usually not branched.
17. Ecology
tolerate annual precipitation of 3.1 to
42.9 dm (mean of 153 cases = 15.0),
pH of 4.3 to 8.7 (mean of 88 cases =
6.4)
Well-adapted to tropical and
subtropical climates
Days and nights must be fairly warm.
18. Ecology
fairly drought-tolerant
Soils must be well-drained.
Subsoils of clay are satisfactory unless they
are tight and sticky
Some friable, well-drained loams and silt
loams are highly productive
Excellent soils have surface layers more than
30 cm in depth, those from 15–30 cm are
considered good
Slopes should be gentle, with little tendency
to become eroded.
19. Cultivation
In tropical areas, sweetpotatoes flower and cross-pollinate
easily
seeds are rarely used for propagation purposes
propagation is by vegetative means, from
transplants produced by bedding mother roots, or
from rooted cuttings.
grown over a wide range on farms of various types:
truck farms,
dairy farms,
cotton farms,
tobacco farms,
corn-and-hog farms,
and others..
20. Harvesting
Sweetpotatoes develop a substantial amount of
the total yield in the last 4–5 weeks before frost.
For large yields 130 to 150 days growth is required.
Early harvested crops are lower in carotene
content and in total solids.
Probably the best time to harvest for storage is
after the leaves show slight yellowing.
A 16- to 18-inch tractor-drawn turning plow with a
vine-cutting colter in front of it is probably the best
tool for harvesting.
21. Yields and Economics
Average yields vary from 17.5 to 27.5 MT/ha,
depending on the cv and growing conditions .
Sweetpotatoes have long been considered the
second most important vegetable crop in the US,
second only to white or Irish potatoes.
Spain is major producer in Europe; India grows
sweetpotato in all states and it ranks third in
importance among tuber crops, exceeded only by
potato and cassava.
In China, where it was introduced in 1594,
sweetpotato is often used more than rice and has
been used to relieve famines.
22. Biotic Factors
Sweetpotato is subject to injury from a number of
diseases that may attack the young plants in the
hot bed or the growing crop in the field or may
cause decay in storage.
The worst of these are stem-rot, black-rot, foot-rot,
soft-rot or ring-rot,and in the Southwest, root-rot.
These are described and illustrated, and control
measures are given in Farmers' Bulletin No. 1059,
Sweet Potato Diseases.
The sweetpotato is not seriously injured by many
insects but the sweetpotato root weevil has been
very injurious in sections of the South, especially in
the Gulf States.
23. Pests and Diseases
Cutworms frequently destroy the young
plants by cutting them off soon after
they are set in the field .
