Response of Black Hamburg grape cv, ( Schiava Grossa L. ) to foliar spray with Yeast suspension, Licorice roots extract and Amino Quelant-K compound

Abstract

An experiment was conducted in Al-Ramadi city/ Al-Anbar province during the growing seasons 2009 and 2010 to investigate the effect of foliar spray with Yeast suspension, Licorice roots extract and Amino Quelant-K compound on some growth and yield traits of Black Hamburg grape cv, trained as arbors, Winter pruning was performed at the middle of January for both seasons by leaving 8 canes, each contains 15 buds, Also, a few spurs of 2 buds were left a renewal spurs, Study factors were spraying three concentrations (0, 5 and 10 g/l) , (0, 2 and 4 g/l) and (0, 2 and 4 ml/l) of Yeast suspension, Licorice roots extract and Amino Quelant-K, respectively, Treatment applications were performed at three times, the first was two weeks before flowering, the second was within a week after fruit set, meanwhile the third was after three weeks from the second one, Treatments were distributed in Randomized Completely Block Design (RCBD) a factorial experiment with three replicates, Each vine represent a single experimental unit, therefore 81 vines were involved in this study.Results revealed that clusters no, per vine was significantly affected by spraying Yeast suspension and Amino Quelant-K only in the second season, as the treatments 10 g/l and 4 ml/l of Yeast suspension and Amino Quelant-K respectively gave the highest number of clusters 51,19 and 50,04 cluster/vine compared with the control treatments (0 g/l and 0 ml/l of Yeast suspension and Amino Quelant-k, respectively) which gave the minimum number of cluster/vine (47,85, 47,67 cluster/vine, respectively), Fertility coefficient was affected by study factors in the second season, as the treatments 10 g/l, 4 g/l or 4 ml/l of Yeast suspension, Licorice roots extract and Amino Quelant-K, respectively showed the highest values of 1,24, 1,20 and 1,22 respectively, Treatments application were significantly affected plant leaf area, leaf content of chlorophyll and cane content of nitrogen and carbohydrate.

Effect of Fertilization with High Nitrogen NPK Fertilizer and Spraying with Seaweed Extract on the Volatile Oils of Rosemary Rosmainus officinalis L.

“…The reason may be attributed to the increase in the concentration of the extract and its efficiency, which works to increase the vegetative growth, causing the improvement of the physical properties of the volatile oil. This result is consistent with what was found [12] on the rosemary plant.…”

Effect of Fertilization with High Nitrogen NPK Fertilizer and Spraying with Seaweed Extract on Vegetative Growth Indicators of Rosemary Rosmainus officinalis L.

“…This has been demonstrated through numerous experiments and studies. They are completely safe for human, animal, and environmental health because they are made from naturally occurring substances [12]. Extract seaweed is one of the modern technologies that has been spread and used as a biostimulant for many physiological functions in the plant and is considered non-polluting to the environment, non-toxic and harmless.…”
