“…1). These results are in harmony with those of Faedi et al (2008), Nir-Dai et al (2008 and Simposon et al (2008). The high early yield of plants derived from registered cv Festival plants may be attributed to their vigorous growth resulted in their propagation stage in the open nursery (out of the screenhouse) under the suitable growth conditions, i.e., light intensity and temperature.…”

“…Regarding the interaction effect on total yield per plant and fadden, results show that plants derived from registered of cv Festival plants in the two tested seasons and plants derived from certified of cv Festival plant in the first season gave the highest values. These results confirm those of Faedi et al (2008). The high total yield of plants derived from registered and certified orders of cv Festival could be due to their adaptability for yielding while the nucleus and foundation orders usually used for runnering and transplant production as mothers for nurseries.…”

“…On strawberry El-Sayed 2000, Mohamed (2003) and Ahmed (2009) found varietal differences in number of transplant, root length, crown diameter, number of leaves, plant length, early and total yield, average fruit weight, fruit firmness, titratable acidity and ascorbic acid. Also, Aranda et al (2005), Faedi et al (2008), Nir-Dai et al (2008 and Simposon et al (2008) recorded significant differences in early and total yield among some new strawberry cultivars.…”

This study was carried out during 2007/2008 and 2008/2009 seasons in two experiments. The first was conducted to investigate the effect of four strawberry nursery mother plant orders, i.e., nucleus, foundation, registered and certified and two promising cultivars, i.e., Tamar and Festival on number and quality of transplants in the nursery. The second experiment aimed to study the same treatments on yield and fruit quality using transplants derived from the above mentioned orders and cultivars. A split plot design was adopted. Results of the first experiment indicated that nucleus plant order showed the highest values of number of transplants/plant, number of roots and crown diameter/transplant. Plants derived from foundation order exhibited the highest values in crown diameter and root length. Also, plants derived from certified order showed the highest root length. As for the cultivar effect, Tamar cultivar showed higher significant values in number of transplants/plant and number of roots than Festival, while Festival plants indicated significant increases in root length and plant height as compared with Tamar. Results of the interaction showed that nucleus plants of Festival cv exhibited the highest values of number of transplants while plants derived from nucleus Tamar showed the highest values of root length and transplant height. Results of the second experiment indicate that transplants derived from nucleus order showed the lowest values of early yield while those derived from foundation order exhibited the highest values of fruit firmness and total acidity. The highest early and total yields as well as total soluble solids were produced from plants derived from registered order. Results showed also that Festival cv, showed higher values of early and total yield and total acidity than Tamar while Tamar fruits indicated higher total soluble solids and ascorbic acid than Festival. The interaction show that plants derived from registered Festival cv gave the highest values of early and total yield while the heaviest fruits were harvested from plants derived from nucleus Tamar cv. The study conclude that it could be recommended to use registered plants (the second generation from tissue culture plants) of Festival to obtain high early and total yield for local market also with high acidity and firmness for export markets.
