Experiment was conducted during summer season of 2021 to study the effect of foliar applications of Phenylalanine (Phe), Jasmonic acid (JA), Biofertilizer (Bio) and their combinations (Phe+JA, Phe+Bio, JA+Bio, Phe+JA+Bio and control) on some growth, yield parameters and anthocyanin compounds on Roselle calyces Hibiscus sabdariffa L., The treatments were distributed on Randomized Completely Block Design in three replicates, means were compared according to the Least Significant Difference test (LSD) at probability level of 0.05. The results show that growth parameters (plant height, branches number, leave area and chlorophyll) and yield parameters (fruits number, fresh weight calyces, fresh yield calyces and dry yield calyces) were increased due by foliar application Phe+JA+Bio, while the combination treatment Phe+Bio gave significant effects on vitamin C, total anthocyanin, Gossypetin, Sabdartine, Hibescitine, Delphidine and Cyanidin of calyces reached at 201.5, 184.5, 29.3, 31.2, 57.4, 35.4, 27.8 (mg.100g) respectively.
The experiment was conducted at winter season 2019/2020 in private vegetable farm in Babylon Governorate to study the effect of three planting dates (Sept1, Sept15 and Oct1st) and three levels of nitrogen fertilizer (0, 40 and 80 Kg N ha-1) on growth indicators (number of leaves, plant height, number of secondary branches, total chlorophyll and percentage of dry matter) and yields indicators (number of inflorescences, plant yield, 1000 seed weight, seed yield and oil) for Borage, the treats were distributed in a factorial experiment with a randomized complete block design with three replicates, means were compared by using Duncan’s multiple range test at probability level 0.05. The results showed a significant effect of planting date at Sept1st for all growth, yield and oil content of some fatty acids indicators, the percentage increase in yields of seeds and oil was 38.7 and 51.8 % respectively. While, nitrogen fertilizer at level 80 Kg N ha-1 relative increased seeds and oil yield about 40.2 and 50.4 % respectively, and interaction treat between planting date on Sept1st × 80 Kg N ha-1 gave the highest means in all measured indicators, and the percentage of palmitic, stearic, oleic, linoleic and linolenic acids were 11.63, 7.22, 17.58, 37.21 and 20.48 % respectively.
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.
