摘要：

A field experiment was carried out during the 2014-2015 and 2015-2016 seasons on cherry tomato cv. Katalina 522 (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) to study the effects of solar UV radiation on production, quality and storability of cherry tomato fruits. Seedlings were grown in green houses and covered with two different types of plastic films that transmitted different levels of solar UV (4% and 83%) compared to regular plastic film as control. The cherry tomato exposed to solar UV (4%) showed vegetative growth and yield that were better than that of the other two treatments in both seasons. In addition, comparison of the effect of the two different types of plastic films and control film on fruit quality during storage showed that growth under solar UV (83%) reduced the weight loss and decay, and maintained superior general appearance, fruit firmness, total soluble solids and lycopene content compared to the other treatments.
