This study aim to use environmentally friendly material (Linseed and citrus oils) to reduce the harmful effect of water deficit on Khaya senegalensis plant due to its economic importance as a source of wood in addition to many uses of alternative medicine. Therefore, Khaya senegalensis plants were grown in green house with three irrigation intervals (5, 7 and 9 days) and oils foliar spray as linseed oil (Lin) at (0, 5, 7%) and citrus oils at (0, 1, 2%). The results indicated that the 9 days irrigation interval gave the lowest values of the most studied growth parameters, water relations (relative water content (RWC%), water retention capacity (WRC) and membrane stability index(MSI%), photosynthesis pigments, chlorophyll stability index (CSI%), minerals content, total free amino acid while increased values of electrolyte leakage (EL%), total sugar, total phenol, and antioxidant enzymes activities(Catalase (CAT), Peroxidase (POX), Superoxide dismutase (SOD)). Both oils treated especially linseed oil, at 7% increased values of all parameters and chemical composition compared with untreated plants plus different irrigation intervals, except EL% was decreased. The data provided evidence that linseed and citrus oils treatment reduces the adverse effect of water deficit on Khaya senegalensis plants and can play a role in providing stress tolerance.
