| Abstract | ||
| The experiment was conducted in greenhouse of Biology Department, Education College for pure sciences/Ibn Al-Haithium, Baghdad University, to study the effect of spraying with three concentrations of potassium(200, 400 and 600)mg.L-1, two concentrations of kinet-in(75and150)mg.L-1 and their interaction, meanwhile-the control transplants sprayed with dis-tilled water with two sprayings times on some morphological characteristics(plant height, num-ber of branches and dry matter percentage) and some nutrient elements content(N, P, K, Ca and Mg) of lentil shoot (Lens culinaris Medic.). The experiment was conducted as a factorial experiment. Completely Randomized Design (C.R.D.) was used with three replicates. Lest Significant Difference(L.S.D.) was used at proba-bility of 0.05 to compare between means. Results showed that: 1-Spraying plant with potassium at concentration 600mg.L-1 increased significantly some studied characteristics which gave the highest mean of plant height, number of branches and N, K and Ca contents, but concentration 400mg.L-1 gave the highest mean of dry matter percentage, P and Mg contents, compared with the lowest values which produced from the plants of control treatment. 2-Spraying plant with kinetin at concentration 150mg.L-1 increased significantly all studied characteristics. 3-The interaction between two factors studied was significant and treatment (400mgK.L-1 +150mgKin.L-1) was superior to all treatments in all characteristics except the number of branches. | ||
