During 2019 and 2020 seasons Ewaise mango trees were subjected three times to foliar application of Egyptian clover and fenugreek seed sprout extract at 0.25 to 1.0%. The study focused on the impact of these treatments on growth, nutritional status of the trees, yield as well as physical and chemical characteristics of the fruits.Spraying Egyptian clover and fenugreek seed sprout extract at 0.25 to 1.0% was effective in enhancing growth traits, tree nutritional status, yield and fruit quality rather than non-application ones. The promotion was associated with increasing concentrations of extract used. Using fenugreek seed sprout extract was superior than using Egyptian clover seed sprout extract in this respect. No significant differences were seen due to increase in the concentration of used extracts. From the economic point of view, use the extracts of 0.5% are preferable.The best results concerning to growth, tree nutritional status, yield and fruit quality of Ewaise mango trees grown under Aswan region conditions were obtained due to use Egyptian clover or fenugreek seed sprout extracts at 0.5% three times.
The aim of this study was to find the effect of planting distances and spraying with different concentrations of leaf fertilizer with micronate15 on some vegetative growth traits and yield of pea variety Green Canada in non-heated greenhouses, by using three planting distance (factor A) which includes: A1:20, A2: 30, and A3:40 cm and four spray concentrations as foliar application (factor B) which includes: B0: zero, B1: 0.5, b2: 1.5 and b3: 2.5 liter of water). According to the results of this study the highest plant (124.82cm), number of branches (4.58), fresh weight,(95.94 g) and the total yield (142.41 g)were observed in the distance of planting (30 cm), while the highest value of the pod length was observed from the distance planting in 40 cm which is 8.39 cm. The concentration of 1.5 mL / liter of micronate15 gave the highest values of branches 4.53 branches, fresh weight 97.47 g, number of pods 36.73 pods, number of seeds 8.55 oats, length of the pod 8.83 cm and the total yield 150.78 g. The highest values of the number of branches 5.14 branch, fresh weight 105.72 g, the number of seeds 8.90 seed and the total yield 159.78 g were observed from the interaction between the planting distance of 30 cm and 1.5 mL / liter of nutrient micronate15. Also, the interaction between 20 cm distance and foliar application with 2.5 mL l of micronate15 gave the highest value in the number of leaves which is 53.36.
Different age of chicken manure may create a different effect on growth and production of plants. The reason for conducting the study was to determine the response of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) for mature chicken manure (old); its age was 6 months, and immature chicken manure; its age was less than 10 days. The research consisted of eleven treatments. Five deferent levels included 50, 75, 100, 125 and 150 grams per plant (g plant-1) were used for each type of chicken manure (mature and immature) plus control treatment, and three replications were conducted for each treatment. The parameters of fresh weight (edible part only), leaves number, head diameter and plant length were recorded, at harvesting period. Also, the fresh weight has been converted to lettuce's yield ton hectare-1 (ton h-1). The result indicated that applying the old chicken manure (except 50 g plant-1) caused a significant decrease (P< 0.05) in fresh weight, leave number, head diameter and the yield of lettuce. However, lettuce supplied with high levels of immature chicken manure exhibited significant increase (P< 0.05) in fresh weight, plant length and the yield. Lettuce fertilized with 150 g plant-1 of immature chicken manure produced 68.48 ton h-1 which was 18 tons higher compared to only 50.20 ton h-1 in control’s plot. Based on the obtained result, avoiding application old chicken manure and utilization fresh manure in order to stimulate vegetative growth and lettuce yield are recommended.
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.
