Abstract | ||
This research was conducted the lath house of Horticulture Department and landscape design - collage of Agriculture - University of Baghdad, Abu Ghraib for 2013-2014 seasons , Two citrus rootstock’s (Swingle citrumelo and Troyer citrange ) was treated with three concentrations of Benzyl Adenine (0 ,100 , 200)mg. L-1 ,and three concentrations of Gibberllic acid (0 ,150 ,300) mg. L-1 ,The factorial experiment was tested in RCBD design with three replicates ,two plants for each replicate .the results showed superiority of Swingle citrumelo root stocks in C/N ratio ,phosphorus and potassium leaves content for two seasons and The measurements respectively was (9.74 , 0.197% and % 0.511) for season 2013 (10.79 ,0.218% and 0.568% ) for season 2014.while Troyer citrange root stock showed superiority in leaves content of (Nitrogen and Protein )which was for two seasons (1.532% and 9.57%) and (1.703 %and 10.63%) respectively . treatment of Benzyl Adenine 200 ml. L-1 had significant increase in all studied characteristics C/N ratio , Nitrogen , Protein , phosphorus and potassium for two seasons ( 10.01, 1.533%, 9.57% ,0.247% and 0.602%) for season 2013(11.22, 1.703%, 10.64%, 0.275% and 0.669%) for season 2014 respectively. While the treatment with Gibberllic acid in 300 ml. L-1 was superiority on all studied characteristics (C/N ratio , Nitrogen , Protein , phosphorus and potassium) and measurements was (10.01, 1.563%, 9.76%, 0.254% and 0.583%) for first season and (11.37, 1.720%, 10.85%, 0.282% and 0.647%) for second season respectively. | ||
