“…The minimum fruit set (14.56 and 10.49 %) was observed on untreated trees (control) which was significantly lower than most other treatments in 2016 and 2017 seasons. These results are in agreement with those obtained by Saadati et al (2016) and Hikal et al (2017). The present results indicated increasing fruit set with boric acid treatment compared with control treatment may attribute to role of boron in maintaining high pollen viability, germination and pollen tube cellulose elongation (Hassan, 2000).…”

“…A significant increase in fruit number/tree was obtained in both seasons by foliar application of 0.3% boric acid (56.40 and 62.20 %), while, significant decrease in fruit number/tree was recorded by 50 mg/l NAA (25.60 and 33.60 %), in the first and second seasons, respectively. These results are in agreement with those obtained by Sarrwy et al (2012), Lal et al (2013) and Saadati et al (2016).…”

This study was carried out during two successive seasons 2016 and 2017 on six years old 'Wonderful' pomegranate trees (Punica granatum L.). Trees were grown on sandy loam soil conditions in a private orchard located at Burg El-Arab, Alexandria governorate, Egypt. The trees were spaced 4x5 m apart and irrigated by drip irrigation system and received similar cultural practices adapted in the orchard. The effect of some growth regulators, nutrient elements and kaolin on cracking and fruit quality of pomegranate 'Wonderful' cultivar was studied. The experiment was designed as randomized complete block design with five replicates. Each block contained 11 treatments (control, naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) at 25 and 50 mg/l, gibberellic acid (GA 3 ) at 100 and 150 mg/l, boric acid at 0.1% and 0.3%, calcium chloride at 1% and 2% and kaolin at 4% and 6%). Results revealed that, boric acid at 0.3% gave the highest mean values of fruit set (%), number of fruits/tree, yield (kg/tree) and anthocyanin; while, naphthalene acetic acid at 50 mg/l recorded the maximum mean values of fruit weight, fruit diameter, volume and grain weight, and gave the minimum mean values of fruit drop and fruit cracking (%). On other hand, gibberellic acid (GA 3 ) at 150 mg/l gave the maximum yield (kg/tree), in the second season and the minimum fruit cracking (%), whereas, calcium chloride at 2% gave the best results of TSS (%), acidity (%), and vitamin C, total and reducing sugars were higher than the control for all treatments. Finally, kaolin at 6% gave the lowest percentage of sunburn and the highest percentage of juice, as compared with the control and other treatments during both seasons.

“…They mentioned that foliar application of amino acids increased the fruit set and fruit yield. The obtained results concerning the positive effect of micronutrients mixture (Fe, Zn and Mn) in this regard are in agreement with those reported byEl-Seginy et al, (2003) on apple ,El-Kosary et al, (2011) on mango, El-Sheikh et al, (2007 andYadav et al, (2013) on peach,Tariq et al, (2007) andKazi et al, (2012) on orange,Khorsandi et al, (2009) on pomegranate,Hassan et al, (2010) on plum , Seyam (2012) on mandarin,Razzaq et al, (2013),Nirmaljit et al, (2015) andIlyas et al, (2015) on Kinnow mandarin,Saadati et al, (2016) on olive andSuman et al, (2016) andZagade et al, (2017) on guava. They indicated that foliar application of micronutrients such as, Fe, Zn and Mn alone or in combinations enhanced fruiting parameters of the different fruit trees.…”

“…contents as compared with control. The recorded results of micronutrients mixture (Fe, Zn and Mn) dealing with their prospective affect on enhancing physical and chemical properties of Canino apricot fruits are in harmony with earlier studies of El-Seginy et al, (2003) on apple, Tariq et al, (2007) on orange, Wassel et al, (2007) on grapevines, El-Sheikh et al, (2007) on peach, Khorsandi et al, (2009) on pomegranate, Hassan et al, (2010) on plum, Anees et al, (2011) and El-Kosary et al, (2011) on mango,Kazi et al, (2012) on orange,Razzaq et al, (2013) andNirmaljit et al, (2015) on Kinnow mandarin,Ali et al, (2014) on peach,Saadati et al, (2016) on olive andZagade et al, (2017) on guava.…”

This work was conducted during 2016 and 2017 seasons in a private orchard at El-Khatatba region, Minofia Governorate, Egypt to study the effect of some foliar application of amino acids at 0.0, 1, 2 and 3 ml/L and micronutrients mixture i.e., Fe + Zn + Mn each at 0.0, 50, 100 and 150 ppm as well as their combination on growth, yield, quality and leaf mineral content of Canino apricot trees. The trees used in this experiment were eight-year-old planted at 4x5m apart and budded on local apricot rootstock, grown in a sandy soil under drip irrigation system and received the common cultural practices. The trees selected to be healthy and uniform in growth and yield as possible. The gained results showed that the longest shoots, the highest number of leaves/shoot and the largest leaf area were obtained from the combination of amino acids at the high rate (3 ml/L), particularly those sprayed with micronutrients at the high level (150 ppm) in the two seasons. The highest fruit set % was scored by the interaction of amino acids at the high rate, especially those received micronutrients foliar spray at the high level in the two seasons. The heaviest fruit and the highest yield/ fed. were noted by the combined treatment between amino acids at 3 ml/L and micronutrients at 150 ppm in the two seasons. The highest values of fruit firmness obtained from the combination of micronutrients at the high level, particularly those received amino acids at the high rate (3 ml/L) in both seasons. 3 ml/L amino acids sprayed plus micronutrients at 150 ppm induced the highest values of fruit T.S.S. %, fruit total sugars % and V.C (mg/ 100ml juice). The highest values of leaf N, P, K, Fe, Zn and Mn contents were obtained by using the mixed treatment between amino acids at 3 ml/L and micronutrients at 150 ppm in both seasons. Conclusively, spraying Canino apricot trees with amino acids at 3 ml/L and received micronutrients at 150 ppm foliar spray induced prospective effects on vegetative growth and fruits yield and quality.

“…Foliar concentration of Mn, Zn and B were also comparatively higher indicating a higher absorption and utilisation at the flowering and fruit setting stages of the banana crop. The effect of Zn and B in increasing fruit set and number of fruits have been reported by Saadati et al, (2016). B is instrumental in cell wall formation, differentiation of xylem, a regulatory role in transportation of carbohydrates, nucleic acid synthesis and hormonal responses (Souza, 2016).…”
