Effect of Organic compost on Chemical Parameters for Two Varieties of Tomato Plant (Solanum esculentium L.)

Abstract

The experiment conducted during 2018-2019 to study effect of added 15 and 30 t.h-1 level of three kinds of decomposing organic fertilizers on some chemical properties for two varieties of tomato (Red flower F1 and Waad RZ) in field of agricultural experiments station college of Agriculture, University of Basrah. Results showed a significantly effect of hybrid (Red flower F1) compared with hybrid (Waad RZ) on leaves content of : Total chlorophyll, total N and total soluble carbohydrate, increased 10.6, 14.39 and 8.84% respectively. Results showed a significant effect of organic fertilizer especially 15 t.ha-1 poultry fertilizer on total chlorophyll and total N in leaves content with increase of 67.75 and 110.31% respectively, 30 t.ha-1 poultry fertilizer significantly increased of total P in leaves content increased 143.48%. Decomposing cattle fertilizer with 30 t.ha-1 significantly increased of total K in leaves content with increased 181.30% also corn residues fertilizer with 30 t.ha-1 significantly increased of total soluble carbohydrate with 109.89%. Interaction between experiment factors were significantly effect on total chlorophyll, K and soluble carbohydrate in leaves content. Study also revealed different influences of organic fertilizer as follow: The poultry fertilizer (15 t.ha-1) increased the total leaves content of chlorophyll and N with 67.75 and 110.31% respectively. While the poultry fertilizer (30 t.ha-1) significantly increased the total leaves content of P with 143.48%. The decomposed cattle fertilizer (30 t.ha-1) significantly increased the total leaves content of K with 181.30%. Whereas corn residues (30 t.ha-1) significantly raised the total leaves content of soluble carbohydrate with 109.89%.

Effects of Foliar and Soil Applications of Silicic Acid (Silicon 0.8%) on the Growth and Yield of Tomato under Greenhouse Conditions

“…The applications of (stabilized) silicic acid, as foliar spray or as soil (drench) application (1 and 2 ml/L) resulted in proportional and significant increases in growth, yield and chemical parameters in tomato plants grown in silty clay pretreated with organic fertilizers [19]. The soil (drench) application of silicic acid 2 ml/L was more effective on the increase of the growth parameters during the vegetative stage, like the leaf surface [7,20] , the fresh and dry weight, and the chlorophyll content, as compared to the foliar spray amendments 2 ml/L.…”

Effect of solvent ratio on omega-3 extraction of catfish (Clarias sp.) and pangasius catfish (Pangasius sp.) using low-temperature crystallization method

“…Nutritional content of each fish was influenced by intrinsic and extrinsic aspects. intrinsic aspects are the species, gender, size, age, and reproductive phase of the fish, while extrinsic aspects are environment of habitat, food availability, and the quality of the water where the fish live [25]. Fish categories were divided into four groups based on their lipid level.…”

Effect of Natural and Synthetic Sources of Lycopene on Productive Performance, Carcass Quality and viscera relative weights of Japanese Quail Coturnx japonica Temminck & Schlegel, 1849

“…In the human diet, fruits and vegetables are the most important phytochemical compounds. A diet rich in fruits and vegetables is well established for its effectiveness in promoting human health, especially regulating body weight (Estruch et al, 2013;Mozaffarian, 2016), On the other hand, the presence of lycopene in tomato increasing the importance of consuming it locally and in the entire world, as well as its high nutritional value (Aziz et al, 2019).…”
