Abstract

The golden cherry tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is a small variety with a sweet taste, crunchy texture, and high nutritional content, making it popular in salads, appetizers, and a healthy snack. Gamma radiation, a type of high ionization radiation, can cause genetic alterations and affect how plants respond to their surroundings. This study aimed to assess the impact of gamma radiation on the growth and yield of different varieties of cherry golden tomatoes. The research took place at the Irradiation and Instrumentation Laboratory on Jalan Lebak Bulus Raya in Jakarta and the Green House of Labuhanbatu University in Rantauprapat City, Labuhanbatu Regency, North Sumatra Province. The experiment took place between December 2023 and March 2024. The study utilized a non-factorial, Completely Randomized Design with 4 treatments and 5 replicates, including gamma radiation treatment at 0 Gy, 200 Gy, and 300 Gy. The findings indicated that higher doses of gamma radiation reduced germination at a dosage of 300 Gy. The parameters of plant height, number of leaves, flowering age, and fruit weight per plant were significantly affected by gamma radiation treatment, but there was no effect on plant height.
