Abstract: In this paper, the effects of KT and 6-BA on the size, weight and quality of ‘Hongyan’strawberry fruit were studied in 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 days after pollination of strawberry. The results showed that exogenous application of both KT and 6-BA significantly increased the fruit weight and size, elevated the contents of soluble sugar, soluble protein and free amino acids in strawberry fruits. The content of antioxidant substances such as ascorbic acid anthocyanin, total phenols, and flavone were also enhanced by treatments of KT and 6-BA. The results indicated that cytokinin had a positive effect on strawberry fruit quality and has the application prospect in strawberry production.

Key words: strawberry, KT, 6-BA, fruit quality
