| Abstract : A field experiment was conducted at the 2021 agricultural season to study the effect of root treatment with Mycorrhizal fungi and folair application with Moringa leaf extract and the interaction between them on the proportion of NPK in Citrullus Colocynthis leaves. The experiment was carried out in a randomized complete block design with three replications . The experiment included 16 treatments resulting from the comparison treatment , inoculation with three concentrations of mycorrhizal fungi ( 15,20,25 g ) , folair application with three concentrations of moringa leaf extract (100, 200, 300 mg.L-1 and the interaction treatment between them . The averages were compared using the least significant difference at a probability level of 0.05. The results showed that the inoculation of roots with mycorrhizal fungi gave significant differences in the studied traits , as the inoculation with mycorrhizal fungi at concentration (25 g) for each plant achieved the highest values for some of the studied traits, which significantly outperformed the control treatment without addition in the ratio of nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium. While folair application with Moringa leaf extract when treated (200 g.L-1) gave the best results for the ratio of nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium. Whereas, the interaction treatment (25gm +200gm/l) between the mycorrhizal inoculum and moringa leaf extract, respectively, gave the highest percentage of nitrogen in the leaves, while the interaction treatment ( 20gm +200 g.L-1 ) between the mycorrhizal inoculum and moringa leaf extract, respectively, achieved the highest rate of phosphorous. And potassium in the leaves. | ||
