Horl. Dcpl.. Fac. ofAgric. Moshtohor. Zaga/.ig Univ.. Hgypl
ABSTRACT
This work was carried out at the Experimental Farm Fac. of Agric. at Moshtohor. Zaga/.ig
University It was aimed to study the effect of irrigation treatments combined with nitrogen sources
and levels on the nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium contents in the dried tissues of flowers,
flowerslalks. leaves and amino acid patterns in the leaves of Sterilities reginae Ait.
• Irrigation treatments at 100% and 75% of soil available water increased N and P levels in the
flowers tissues and P content in flower stalks tissues.
•
Urea as N source significantly increased the level of N and P in flower tissues and leaves
especially at 80 kg N/Fad. Also urea at the same level increased P percent in flower stalks tissues
followed by ammonium sulphate in this respect.
•
Decreasing irrigation rate to 50% available water of the soil increased the accumulation of
nitrogen in the leaves tissues especially at high applied nitrogen level to 120 kg N/Fad. from the
three sources, but it is not expressed in growth and flower productivity
•
The total amino acids increased greatly with (NH^SC^ followed by urea CO(NH2)2 and Nl^NO^ respectively compared with the control
•
High percent of Glutamic acid followed in descnding order by aspartic acid gave the most
conspicuous effect on plant growth and flowering behavior of Sterilize reginae Ait.
• Irrigation treatments and nitrogen sources and its level did not affect potassium content in the
flower, flower stalk and leaf tissues.
• Highest flower productivity was associated with raising nitrogen content in the leaf to 1.54%1.89% from urea source at 80 kg K/Fad al moderate irrigation treatment (75% available water)
•
Flower stem length and its diameter were at their maximum with leaf N level at 1..13%1.89%.

EFFECT OF SOME AGRICULTURAL PRACTICES ON THE
OCCURRENCE OF WILT AND/OR ROOT-ROT PATHOGENS
OF GERBERA JAMESONII, HOOK
By
Gamal El-0in, I.F.; El-Fiki, A.I.I. and Eman M. Abu El-Ghait
Fac. of Agric., Moshtohor, Zagazig Univ.
ABSTRACT
Fusarium oxysporum (4 isolates), F_, solani (2 isolates) and an
isolate from each of F_. monifilorme and Cunninqhamella sp. were
isolated for the first time in Egypt from gerbera plants showing
wilt and/or root-rot. All of these isolated fungi but not the
last one were partially or completely pathogenic to gerbera
seeds which were seedlings and fresh immediately divided or
hardened adopted offset transplants. 1F. oxysporum isolates were
the most effective ones causing rapid wilt and death of the
majority of tested plant parts.
Gerbera plants grown in soil mixture containing normal soil:
coarse sand at a ratio of 1:2 by volume, irrigated every 21 days
and planted on rows lead to the minimum percentage of natural
infected plants with wilt and/or root-rot pathogens as well as
the highest percentage of healthy survival plants and best
growth index. However, the best dry weight of leaves and roots
and No. of offsets per plant were linked with plants given water
irrigation every 21, 14 and 7 days interval, respectively.
While, the same characters in order listed were also the best
when transplanting took place in soil mixture of 1:1, 1:2
- 11 -
(normal soil: coarse sand by volume) and normal soil,
respectively. Planting on rows yielded the best values of' all
of the measured characters.

ABSTRACT
Rooted cuttings of Epipremnum aureum (Scindapsus aureus Pothos) were
grown in a modified medium containing three different sources of calcium as
CaSOj, Ca(OH)2,CaCO'$ compared with Tonic and a medium containing sulfur.
The following results were obtained:
All powder sources of calcium especially CaCo4 enhanced growth, increased
plant,number and length of internodes, number of' leaves I plant ,leafarea,stem
thickness and fresh and dry weights. N,P,PZ,Ca,Fe,Mg in the leaves were
increased while, Mn and Zn were decreased. On the other hand, sulfur gave the
lowest values of vegetative growt!i,N,P,and total carbohydrate. Tonic addition
increased the vegetative growth,N,P,Ca and total carbohydrates but decreased
Mg and Mn in the dry leaves.

Also, the growth of Pothos was compared when the plant was suspended,
supported or kept to grow on the ground level. Supported plants produced the
best vegetative growth as maximum fresh and dry weights of plant organs.

1- GROWTH AND NUTRITIONAL STATUS IN RESPONSE TO
Fe, Mn AND Zn APPLICATION
By
Eman M. Abo El-Ghait
Horticulture Dept, Fac. of Agric., Moshtohor, Zagazig Univ., Egypt
ABSTRACT
Two field experiments of split split plot design were conducted during two seasons
of 1991-92 and 1992-93 to study the effect of different Fe, Mn and Zn treatments
(combinations) on some growth measurements, corm and cormels yield and
nutrient status of Gladiolus sp. cv. super-supreme. Plants grown in Experimental
Fann of Fac. of Agric., Moshtohor, Zagazig Univ.. Since, combinations between 3
microelement ( Fe , Mn,
Zn) * 2 sources (chelated /mineral) x 2
concentrations of each source x 3 methods of application (preplanting soak of
corms for 12&24 h. and spraying plants) all were randomly arranged as the
application methods and micro-elements represented the main and sub-plots,
respectively, each treatment replicated 3 times. The obtained data could be
summarized as follows :-1Vegetative Growth (plant height and weights of 3
upper leaves): 1-1- Specific effect of investigated factors: Folair spray were the
most effective method for all growth measurements and exceeded both two other
ones (saokingfor 12& 24 h.) with regard to specific effect of micro-element applied,
Fe andMn were the superior except with plant height where Zn was more
beneficial.
- 13 -
1-2- Interaction (methods x micro-elements
x
sources x concentrations)
Spraying the plants with all chelated Fe orMn solutions, as well as soaking for 24 h.
in 25 ppm mineral Zn solutions were the superior in improving all examined growth
parameters except plant height hence, soaking for 12 h. in 50 ppm inorganic Zn
solution produced the tallest plant.
2-
Corms and cormels:
2-1- Specific effect of investigated factors: Soaking for 24 h. or spray induced the
greatest number of both corms and cormels with the heaviest weight. Moreover,
all micro-elements increased both organs parameters but Fe was the superior. As
for source, chelated
Fe was more effective, but the reverse was true withMn while, both Zn forms were the same.
2-2- Interaction (combinations): All Fe, Mn and Zn combination increased
both number and weight of corms and cormels over control: However, soaking
for 24 h. or spray with inorganic or chelated Fe, respectively, beside, soaking
for 12& 24 h. in mineral or chelated Mn solutions, as well as application
of25ppm chelated or mineral Zn were the most effective for all 3 elements.
3- Mineral Composition :3-1-
Macro-elements Content:
Regarding N% all combinations ofFe, Mn and Zn except soaking for 12h. in different nutrient
solutions increased its level especially in leaf and cormels. However, Zn combinations were
the superior. As for leaf P% the same trend of N was found but, with cormels soaking or
spraying Fe or Mn increased it while, Zn application desreased cormels P%. Concerning K%
most combinations of Fe or Mn especially sprying or
soaking for 24 h. increased it in leaf, corm and cormels, while Zn treatments especially soaking
12 h. decreased leafK%.
3-2- Micro-element Content:
Fe Content: Both corms and cormels were of higher content over leaves, however Fe level
in all organs showed positive response to Fe combinations especially foliar application, but it
was negatively reacted with all combinations of both Mn and Zn.
Mn Content: allMn treatments were in closed relationship with leaf Mn level,
especially spraying of higher Mn concentration. Meanwhile, Zn application was
nearly the same as in Fe ones. In addition both corms and cormels follow nearly
the same trendofleafMn content. Zn Content: All sprayed solutions of Fe, Mn
and Zn increased its level in leaves, corms and cormels, however the increase
was more pronounced with Zn application for both leaves and cormels.

BY
Eman M. Abo EI-Ghait Hort Dept. Fac ofAgnc Moshtohor. Zagazig Univ Banha Branch Egypt
ABSTRACT
Glasshouse experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of types of kristtalon (19 N-19
P- 19 K'2 Mg. 20 N-6 P-16 K-4 Mg) combined with three concentrations (0 0 25 and 50 ppm) of
paclobutra/.ol on growth aspects and biological activity of endogenous phyiohormones in the
leaves of Kpiprcinnuin aurewn (gloden pothos) and finally evaluate and compare between the
three used growth retardants i.e dikegulac-sodium, ancvmidol and paclobutra/ol on the
growth aspects and biological activity of endogenous phyiohormones in golden pothos
Paclobutrazol at
25 and 50 ppm significantly increased plant length, internode length,
number of internodes. number of leaves and leaf area Paclobutrazol at 50 ppm gave heaviest
values of fresh and dry weight of shoots While, paclobutrazol at 25 ppm gave the heaviest
roots fresh and dry weight as compared to control irrespective of other factors Paclobutrazol
had no effect on branching
Kristtalon B at level 2 increased all growth aspects more than kristtalon A Interaction of
paclobutrazol at 25 ppm X kristtalon B at 2 5 g/L maximizing all growth prameter expect
induction of branches
Paclobutrazol at 50 ppm slightly affected the activity of endogenous gibberellins and auxins
The pretreatment of knstallon A and B X paclobutra/ol increased the biological activity of both
gibberellins and auxins-like substances Paclobutrazol decreased endogenous cytokimns While
- 15 -
the pretreatment of kristtalon B X paclobutrazol slightly increased cytokimns
As for the
comparsion between the three growth retardant Dikegulac and ancvmidol gave a great
reduction
in endogenous gibberellins auxins and their biological activity more than
paclobutrasol
• Paclobutrazol slightly decreased auxins activitv and did not show anv effeci on inhibitors

ABSTRACT
The effect of two types of knsttalon at three levels (0 0. 0 s and 2 s glL) assigned as L (). Lj and 12 and dikegulac-sodiuni at () () 50 and 100 ppm on growth aspects and biological activity of
endogenous phytohormones in the leaves of h'.pipreninum aureuni (golden pothos) were
studied during 1990/1991 and 1991/1992 in two glass house experiments in the experimental
station of the Faculty of Agriculture at Moshtohor. Zagazig University
Dikegulac-sodium at the rate of 100 ppm decreased plant length, internode length and
increased number of internodes branches, number of leaves and decreased leaf area
Plants treated with dikegulac-sodium at the rate of 50 ppm had higher shoot to root ratios
(fresh and dry weight) compared to control
- The interaction between Dikegulac at 100 ppm and knsttalon A at the rate of 2 5 g/L (L2)
produced more branches and compact plants
- Both knsttalon A & B at L2 significant^ increased all growth characters except the induction
of new lateral branches
- Knsttalon B at L2 (2 5 g/L) gave the heaviest fresh and dry weight of shoots and roots per
plant as compared to knsttalon A

ABSTRACT
This investigation included studying the effects of two types of kristtalon at three levels
combined with ancymidol at 0.0. 25 and 50 ppm on the growth aspects and the biological
activity of endogenous phytohormones in the leaves of Epipremitum aureutn.
- Ancymidol at 50 ppm restrict plant and internode elongation, while at 25 and 50 ppm
increased number of internodes. induced branching, increased number of leaves, leaf area,
fresh and dry weights of shoots and roots. Ancymidol at 25 ppm X kristtalon B at 2.5 g/L
increased overall growth parameter and improve plant form. Both kristtalon A and B at 2.5 g/L
increased all growth aspects But. had no effect on induction of new branches.
Kristtalon B produced good results on all growth parameters as compared with kristtalon A.
Ancymidol at 50 ppm decreased the endogenous gibberellins and Auxins and their biological
effects These results reflected itself in inducing branching and stopping plant and internode
elongation especially at early stages of growth Ancymidol significantly increased cytokinins
level, especially when the plants pretreated with kristtalon A and B at 2.5 g/L Ancymidol can
be used as foliar spray at 25 ppm four times combined with kristtalon B at 2.5 g/L to improve
overall plant form and produce good compact branching hanging baskets of golden pothos

ABSTRACT
The naturally infected Strelitzia reginae Ait. (Bird of Paradise) plants show
severely stunted plants, yellowish stunted leaves, abnormal flowers and
malformed flowers and flower stalks. Also, it was noticed that some flowers carried
on diseased plants were dead. Most of these symptoms were reduced or remissed
on the newly formed leaves and flowers when diseased plants were treated with
tetracycline (125 to 1000 ppm). Electron micrographs of thin sections of sieve
elements of diseased but not of healthy leaf petioles revealed the presence of
pleomorphic forms occurring as spherical, oval, elongated, filamentous and/or
irregular mollicute-like organism (MLO) bodies that had unit membranes about
lOnm thick. Ribosomlike particles and fine strands presumably nucleic acids within
cells, also, some structures indicative of binary fission or budding were observed.
The disease significantly reduced plant height, number of leaves, length of flower
stalk, leaf chlorophyll and carotene contents. Treatment (foliar spray) with either
tetracycline or gibberellin significantly decreased the deleterious effect of such
disease nearly in all tested concentrations (125, 250,500,750 and 1000 ppm). Effect
of tetracycline or gibberellin was increased by increasing the concentration. Thus,
treated diseased plants exhibit significant increase in plant height, number of
leaves, length of flower stalk, leaf chlorophyll and carotene contents when
compared with untreated analogous in both seasons (1991 and 1992).

ABSTRACT
The present work was done on Cupressus sempervirens. L seedlings "one year old" under
lathhouse condition located at the Experimental Station of Fac. of Agric.. Moshtohor. Zagazig
Univ. during two consecutive seasons of 1991 and 1992 Some substrates (sand. clay,
peatmoss, leaf-mould and peanut-shells) in different combinations and proportions "by
volume" were evaluated as planting media through their influence on both growth and
mineral composition of Cypress plants Differential investigated media were prepared "ratio by
volume" as the following order
a)- Medium (I )"ControI" =Sand + Clay + Peatmoss (1:1:1)
b)- Medium (2)
=Sand + Clay •*- Leaf mould (3:1:1. respectively)
c)- Medium (3)
=Sand + Peatmoss + Leaf mould (3:1:1. respectively)
d)- Medium (4)
=Sand + Clay + Foam (3:1:1. respectively)
e)- Medium (5)
=Sand + Clay + Peanut's shells (311. respectively)
Treatments "growing media" were replicated three times in a complete randomized block
design, with 5 plants (pots) per each replicate Experiment was extended one year later after
plants of each treatment had been transplanted to pots of the corresponding medium on April
and May 1 llh of 1990 and 1991 during first and second seasons respectively Some physical
and chemical properties of the different substrate mixtures were also analy/cd. Thus, obtained
data could be summarized as
1- Vegetative Growth:
- 19 -
Data obtained proved the superiority of planting medium (4) (that consisting of ^ sand I cla\ I
foam bv volume) over investigated other ones Since cypress seedlings transplanted to pots
contained medium (4) were statistically the tallest with the greatest number of laterals
(branches) and heaviest top fresh/drv weigh) lolloued bv media No <2» and No <i) then
medium No. (5) or No. (I) which ranked Insl in :i descending order since both lalcrs were I he
inferior.
2- Chemical Composition:
Seedlings grown in medium (4) showed obviously the highest values of N, P and K contents, except
latest in second season only Medium (3) from one side came next after medium (4) in most cases
(i.e. N and K) but ranked last with P content from the other ones. Moreover, regarding (he
response of N. P. K contents to the remainder media, however, there is no definite trend but thc>
were generally of comparable values with minor interruptions as the\ were alternatively situated in
this respect Concerning branch total carbohydrates content, medium (4) was the superior but
medium (3) was the inferior, however, differences were more pronounced and significant in the
second season. Besides. growing media did not affect branch total phenolic compounds.

ABSTRACT
This investigation was carried out during 1988/89 and 1989/90 in the
Experimental Station of the Faculty of Agriculture at Moshtohor Zagazig Univ. to
study the effect of different doses of gamma radiation on seed germination and
chemical composition of Lathyrus odoratus L.Dry and imbibed seeds (4hrs) were
exposed to 0.00, 100, 250. 750, 1000,1500, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, 10000 and
15000 rod just before laboratory experiment.
The results show that low gamma radiation doses as (100-4000 rad) increased
the germination percentage, rate of germination ,root length and epicotyl
length for dry and imbibed seeds in both seasons. While, the high doses up to
5000 rad decreased these characters.
Gamma irradiation ^specially at the low doses increased the carbohydrates
percentage ,total soluble sugars, soluble nitrogen ,total phenols ,& amylase and
amount of auxin in the seedlings of Lathyrus odoratus L. after 8 days form

ABSTRACT
Six designs for kinder-gartens were initiated by using computer landscape 3D design
program. This depended on educational questionnaire presented by professors of
education of both Bologna and Alexandria University. The proposal of the teachers of
kinder-garten dealing with both actual garden components and children behaviors
with materials and gardens play equipments in some Bologna and Egyptian kindergartens were considered.
The designs always consisted of 7 basic areas, arranged with modern style system to
develop the concepts, skills and values that children can learn in the garden and
helping them to enjoy their time in the garden. The first area called Sea . gardens (200
m?) was designed for five play equipment (Fishing boat-seesaw swing-water play
tables- spiral slide-"Zoo " springs play equipment) which were arranged in circle field
above sand layer 30 cm in depth. The second area (347 m?) is open play area ( lawn
on open design) included a Rolan maze area (40 m^) and parabolic dish for sound
reflector. The third area (100 m?) was designed as paved concrete area placed near
the activity room for different activities as drawing , playing with vehicles or play ing
with Alphabet board. The fourth area (133m^) was designed for
vegetables and fruits garden. The fifth area (408m^), was designed as nature garden
which included woody carriage with horse, bird feeder to attract the wild birds in the
garden. This area learned the children the concepts of imagination and courage in
their behaviors. The sixth area (18 m^) was designed as a "Rainbow garden " to learn
the children both harmony and contrasting on colour. The seventh area was specifying
- 23 -
for the "Butterfly garden " (42 m ) to learn the children the concepts of life,
development, life cycle and mortality. The latter design fulfilled all the educational
aspects (concepts, skills and values) where the sea garden achieved 40.35% of the
educational aspects , while both vegetative and fruits garden and open play area achieved
17.96%. The butterfly garden, suspension bridge, Rainbow garden and Alphabate music
board achieved the educational aspects by 4.27%, 1.39%,13.34% and 1.16%, respectively.

ABSTRACT
Violet (Violet odorata L.) were treated by growth regulators i.e.. GA-; at the rate of 0.00, 100 and
200 ppm. Paclobutra/ol or Ancymidol at the rate of 00. 25 and 50 ppm to investigate the effect of
these growth regulators on growth, flowering, yield as well as concrete percentage in both leaves
and flowers. The results of this study revealed the following points
• GA} at 100 ppm increased the number of flowers, leaves and offsets per plant besides fresh
weight of flowers, flowers pedicel and leaves fresh and dry weights in both first and second cuts. It
also produced more flowers in the earlier intervals (expressed as fresh weight of flowers g/plot).
• GA^ at 100 ppm produce the maximum yield of concrete in flowers of violet plants While. GA-$
at 200 ppm gave the most promising response in increasing leaves concrete yield.
Paclobulra/ol diminished the vegetative growth and flowering parameters, especially at
higher used concentration (50 ppm) While. Paclobutra/ol at low concentration i.e. 25 ppm
increased number of flowers, produced heavier fresh weight of flowers during both earlier
inlervals of flowering season and increased flower concrete yield expressed either as g per plant or
per feddan . Paclobutra/ol at both concentrations (25 A 50 ppm) were the superior in increasing
concrete % in both flowers and leaves. While, for leaves concrete yield, Paclobutra/ol at 25 ppm
ranked second in this concern However. Ancymidol showed nearly the a similar trend as control,
regarding the different growth parameters, but slightly increased the number of flowers per plant
and delayed flowering peaks were generally observed Ancymidol at the rates of 25 and 50 ppm
increased concrete % in both flowers and leaves over control during the two seasons While, at the
rate of 25 ppm increased both flowers and leaves concrete yield per plant and per feddan.

ABSTRACT
Field experiment was carried out during two successive seasons of 1990/1991 and 1991/1992 to
study the effect of Greenzit as foliar spray at the rates of 0.0. 0.2. 0.4. and 0.6% and urea at the
rate of 0.0. 0.5. 1.0 and 1.5% either as foliar spray or soil surface application at the rate of 15.7 0
and 10 5g per plant. Urea foliar spray at 15% significantly increased number of flowers fresh weight
of flowers and pedicels per plant and delayed flowering as well as gave the highest rate of flowers
during the latest one-third of flowering season. The same treatment significantly increased number
of leaves in both cuts and fresh weight of leaves especially at the first one. Urea soil application at
the medium rate (7 0 g/plant) produced the greatest number of offsets and the heaviest fresh and
dry weight of leaves per plant in both cuts. Urea soil application either at the rate of 7.0 or 10 5
g/plant delayed flowering waves to be occurred later at the second half of flowering season.
Greenzit at 06% increased all growth parameters but. it was less effective compared to
urea treatments. Greenzit at 06% produced more regular increase over control in flower fresh
weights throughout the whole picking periods of flowering season. Urea foliar spray at I 0% and
Greenzn at 0 6% treatments were the superior in increasing concrete % in the flowers of I «>lo
mlorata L. While, for leaf concrete %. urea as soil application at 7 0 g/plant or foliar spraved al I 5%
ranked the first in this concern

Abstract
This study was conducted at The Nursery of Experimental Station of the Horticultural Research
Institute, Agriculture Research Center, at Giza, Egypt, during the two successive seasons of 2004 –2005
and 2005 –2006. The aim of this experiment was to investigate the response of seedlings of timber trees
namely, Pinus halepensis Mill. and Swietenia mahagoni (L.) Jacq. to saline water irrigation "artificial
seawater at 4 salinity levels 4, 6, 8 and 10g/L" as well as, the effect of three nitrogen sources
(Ammonium Nitrate, Ammonium Sulfate and Urea) and two potassium source (Potassium Sulfate and
Potassium Chloride), in addition to zero fertilization (control) and their interactions on the growth,
chemical composition and salinity tolerance of Pinus halepensis and Swietenia mahagoni seedlings. The
results obtained showed that all vegetative growth data decresed with increasing salinity levels in both
trees Pinus halepensis Mill. and Swietenia mahagoni (L.) Jacq. the treatment with (NH4NO3) + (K2SO4)
under salinity stress increased vegetative growth. Also the treatment with (NH4NO3) + (K2SO4) could
reverse the inhibitory effect of salinity stress of seedlings. Addition of urea CO(NH 2)2 fertilizer sharply
caused mortality cases for all treated Pinus halepensis seedlings. However using urea CO(NH2)2
fertilizers had an inhibitory effect rather than mortality on the growth of Swietenia mahagoni (L.) Jacq.

Abstract
Two field experiments were carried out at El-obour city, Kalubia governorate, during the two
successive seasons of 2007/2008 and 2008/2009 with the aim of investigating the response of
paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum, Swartz) to grow-in modified sandy soil by reconstruction the zoon of
surface soil layer with soil amendments or organic substrates ( sewage sludge and compost) at the
levels of 2-2.5 cm layer on the soil surface and / 0r 10 cm apart beneath the surface soil for each ,as
well as, three rates of mineral fertilizer N P K (2:1:1+ Mgso 4 ) i.e. (28.96, 21.73, 14.48 g N /m2) and
(14.48, 11.14 and 7.24 g for each P and K /m2) and (2.00, 3.00, 4.00 g Mgso4 /m2) respectively. In
addition to control treatment the results indicated that the highest values for fresh and dry weights of
clipping, plant height, lawn density, pigments (chlorophyll a, b and carotenoides), total carbohydrates
contents, nitrogen, phosphors and potassium percentages in leaves were obtained for sewage sludge
(Ss1) amended to surface soil. Otherwise sewage sludge (Ss2) amended to 10 cm apart beneath surface
soil layer increased fresh and dry weights of underground parts as compared to compost (Cc1, Cc2 and
control). The application of N P K and Mg treatments increased all the above mentioned traits with
increasing the doses of application as compared with control. Interaction between soils amendments
specially Ss1 and NPK + Mg fertilization treatments rates the highest rate resulted in the maximum
values for the fresh and dry weights of clipping, plant height, lawn density, pigments (chlorophyll a, b
and carotenoids), total carbohydrates contents, nitrogen, phosphors and potassium percentages in the
leaves.

ABSTRACT
The present study was carried out at El-Sheikh Zowaid Research Station , Desert Research Center,
North Sinai Governorate, during the two successive seasons of 2008/2009 and 2009/2010. The objective
of this work was to study the effect of sowing date, applying of chemical, bio and organic fertilizers on
the vegetative growth and essential oil productivity of Foeniculum vulgare var. panmorium Mill .( Indian
fennel type). The highest values of vegetative growth measurements were obtained with treatment F5
(100% recommended dose+compost (CM) + biofertilizer) which produced the tallest plants, the
heaviest fresh and dry weights of herb/plant as compared to other fertilization treatments. The early
sowing date (7th October) proved to be the most effective one for producing the best vegetative growth
in comparison with the other sowing dates. In addition, the highest number of umbels /plant, fruit
yield/ plant (g) and per feddan (ton) and weight of 1000 fruits (g) were recorded by using the treatment
F5 (100% recommended dose+compost (CM) + biofertilizer). The highest oil percentage was due to
fertilization treatment F4 (biofertilizer +5 ton compost/fed). Whereas, the highest oil yield/plant was
obtained from F5 treatment (100%recommended dose) + compost (CM) + biofertilizer. Delaying
planting date from 7th Oct to 7th Nov decreased both oil percentage and oil yield/plant. The highest
values belonged to the early sowing date of 7th October. Moreover, the highest leaf N, P and P contents
were gained with the treatment of F5 (100%recommended dose) + compost (CM) + biofertilizer in both
seasons. The main detected component was trans-anethole which is considered an important
constituent, followed descendingly by fenchone then estragole. There are other major components
including limonene and ,α-pinene that were found in the tested oil. Delaying sowing date decreased
anethol content in the volatile oil. Fenchone percentage in the fennel volatile oil was generally
increased with delaying sowing date, and also methyl-chavicol (estragole) was higher in delayed dates,
while limonene and ρ-cymene recorded the least value with the late sowing date of 7th November.
A dose of (400kg per fed) ammonium sulphate (20.5%N) + super phosphorus, at the rate of 300 kg
calcium super-phosphate (16 % P2O5) per feddan +Potassium sulfate, at the rate of 100 kg potassium
sulfate (48 % K2O) per feddan was recommnded.
