| Abstract | ||
| Field experiment was conducted during the winter season of 2013-2014 in silty loam texture of soil in split plot arrangement according to randomized complete plock design (RCBD) to study the effect of foliar application of zinc (Zn) (0,200) mg.L-1 main plot and three treatment of foliar nutrition by mixed Zn and Fe (0, 50+50 and 100+100) mg.(Zn+Fe).L-1 as sub plot on seeds yield, trigonelline percentage and its yield. Results revealed that : Foliar application of zinc showed asignificant increased in seeds number. Pods-1 , yield of seeds Kg.ha-1 and trigonelline yield g.ha-1. (16.3 ,2680 , 3.82) respectively . Foliar application of nutrition in alevels (100+100) mg.L-1 showed asignificant effect on number of pods. Plant-1 and yield of seeds Kg.ha-1 (64.6 , 2732 ) respectively , while Foliar application with (50+50) mg.L-1 gave ahighest rate in seeds number .pod-1 , 100 seeds weight (g) , trigonlline percentage μg.m-1 and trigonelline yield g.ha-1 were (16.5 , 1.34 , 132.11 , 4.58) respectively. The second order interaction between different factors show significantly differences in all of the studied characters | ||
