“…The positive effects of triacontanol application on all the studied traits may be due to its effect through increasing cells division and enlargement [16], and its effect on phosphorylase enzymes that may convert the starch into sugar and translocating this sugar to the fruits [17]. This results conforirming the results obtained by [18], [19] and [20]. Boron spray increased fruit length and diameter through its effect on cell division and enlargement, on the other hand boron caused an increase in total sugar and sorbitol, mannitol content through enhancement of photosynthesis metabolites translocation from the leaves into the fruit flesh part [21] .This results was in agreement with that obtained by [22] and [23].…”

A field experiment was conducted in a private orchard located at Al-Gadeda region/Diyala governorate during 2021 growing season on apple tree cv. Sharaby grafted on the Agmee rootstock, to study the effect of exogenous application of triacontanol, boron, and low biuret urea on physical and chemical characteristics of apple fruit, using RCBD with three factors, foliar spray of Triacontanol at three conc.(0, 5, and 10 ml liter -1) applied three times( Red bud stage, before full bloom and one month after fruits set, boron at two concentrations (0 and 100 ml liter-1) applied twice( before opening the bloom and two weeks later), and low biuret urea at 0, 0.5 and 1 % sprayed twice one month after fruits set and two weeks later), The results revealed a significant differences between treated plants compared with untreated one in most of the studied traits(Fruits length, Fruits diameter, juice Total Sugar, Sorbitol, and Mannitol ).
