What causes blossom drop in chilli and tomato?

Temperatures above 35°C or below 10°C cause blossom drop in chilli and tomato. Low humidity below 40% and irregular watering compound the problem. Mist flowers lightly during peak summer. Water at consistent intervals. Foliar spray of boron (1 g per litre) improves pollen viability and fruit set in hot Indian climates.
