EFFECT OF FOLIAR APPLICATION OF POTASSIUM AND CALCIUM ON VEGETATIVE GROWTH, YIELD AND FRUIT QUALITY OF "ROYAL" APRICOT TREES | PLANT CELL BIOTECHNOLOGY AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY

During 2018, the research was conducted using 'Royal' Apricot trees, 5 years old, plants budded on 'Seedy' apricot rootstock, grown in a private orchard, at Dakok in Iraq's Kirkuk Governorate. For this analysis, twenty-seven uniform trees were chosen and all of them were subjected to the same field practises. The results showed that foliar application with K treatments achieved the highest value in shoot length, leaf area and leaf chlorophyll content in the analysis of K and Ca foliar application on growth fruit characteristics and yield. Data showed that the procedure (K 4000 mg/L + Ca chelated 1000 mg/L) had the best results compared to other combinations and controls in terms of the overlap between K and Ca chelated treatments. The greater results in all parameters were also substantially achieved by 4000 mg/L K and 1000 mg/L Ca chelated and their interactive results.

IMPACT OF MINERAL FERTILIZERS ON LEAF MINERAL CONTENT (CV NENDRAN) AND NUTRIENT STATUS OF THE STUDIED SOIL

Nendran is the popular variety grown commercially in different regions due to its wider adaptability and high degree of tolerance to drought in a perennial cropping system. A field experiment was performed in randomized block design with ten treatments of various ratios of nitrogen and potassium to study their nutrient concentrations in banana leaves and soil at vegetative and harvesting stage. The results revealed that the treatment 9 with the ratio of N250P80K400 showed the highest mineral content in leaves at both the vegetative and harvesting stage. Therefore the fertilizers with the dosage of N250P80K400 are optimum for growing the plants.
