This work was carried out at the Experimental Farm of El-Baramoon Research Station, Horticulture Research Institute, Agricultural Research Center, during the late winter season of 2018 and 2019 to study the effect of two sowing dates (20 th January and 20 th February), foliar applications, i.e., brassinolide (5 and10 mg/l), mixture of growth regulator (0.5 and 1cm/l), dry yeast extract (5 and 10gm/l) potassium nitrate (1 and 2 gm/l) and potassium silicate (2.5 and 5gm/l) in addition to vernalization practice and their interactions on growth, yield and its components characteristics of pea cv. Master-B.The obtained results revealed that, the first sowing date induced a higher growth values , yield and its components and chemical composition of seeds compared with the second sowing date. Spraying brassinolide at 10 mg/l gave the highest growth, yield and chemical components of pea plants, followed by potassium nitrate at 2gm/l, growth regulators mixture at 1cm/l and yeast extract at 10gm/l. Sowing pea seeds in 20 th January and spraying with brassinolide at 10 mg/l introduced the best interaction with respect to growth, yield components and chemical composition of seeds. From the obtained results it could be recommended that sowing pea in 20 th January and spraying with brassinolide (10 mg/l) and/or potassium nitrate at 2gm/l, and/or growth regulators mixture at 1cm/l and/or yeast extract at 10 gm/l improved growth, yield and chemical composition of pea growing at late season conditions .
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.
