In this study, it was aimed to compare nutritional status of organic and conventional oil-bearing rose (Rosa damascena Mill) gardens in Lakes Region. For this, leaf and flower samples were collected from oil-bearing rose gardens in Lakes Region, Isparta. In these samples nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, manganese, copper and boron analyses were made. When the leaf analysis results obtained from conventional and organic production areas were compared, it was seen that nutrient concentrations of the leaves from conventional gardens were higher generally. And these results were significant in terms of nitrogen, manganese, and zinc concentrations. Similarly, flower nutrient concentration of conventional gardens were higher for all examined nutrients and differences between organic and conventional gardens for nitrogen, potassium, calcium and iron concentrations were significant.
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.
