during two successive seasons of 2014 and 2015 to study the effect of growing media (sand, clay and mixture (sand + clay at 1:1 v/v) and bio-fertilization (microbine, green power and potasiomag) with 200 ml/pot on the chemical composition of Moringa oleifera (chlorophyll a, b, a + b, carotenoids, carbohydrates and mineral elements (N, P and k %). The results showed that the highest leaf contents of chlorophyll a, b and carotenoids, carbohydrates and leaf N, P and K % were obtained from the most suitable media (sand + clay at 1:1 v/v) combined with biofertilization (microbine, green power and potasiomag).
This trial was outlined at the nursery of the Ornamental Horticulture Department, Faculty of Agric., Cairo Univ. during two successive seasons of 2014 and 2015.The study was conducted to investigate the effect of different soil types (sand, clay and sand + clay) and bio-fertilizers (microbine) and chemical fertilization (NPK at 6, 8 and 10 g/pot) and the interaction between them on vegetative growth parameters of Moringa oleifera plants.The obtained results revealed that the use of clay in combination with NPK at 8 g/pot gave the highest values of plant height and stem diameter. Also, the obtained highest values of fresh and dry weights of vegetative growth resulted due to using clay or sand + clay medium in combination with microbine + NPK at 10 g/pot and NPK at 8 g/pot.The best results of root fresh and dry weights, were obtained due to the use of clay in combination with microbine + NPK at 10 g/pot and NPK at 8 g/pot.

Also, the obtained highest values of fresh and dry weights of vegetative growth parts resulted due to using clayey or sandy + clayey medium in combination with green power and NPK 8 g/pot.The best results of root fresh and dry weights, were obtained due to the use of sandy + clayey medium in combination with green power bio fertilizer and NPK at 10 g/pot.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
