This study was carried out on olive trees cv. Amygdalifolia, to investigate the effect of spraying potassium nitrate, KnO3, and zinc sulfate, ZnSo4, on the fruit weight, dimension and volume. The plants were sprayed with 0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5% KnO3 and 0, 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75% ZnSO4 and their combinations in August about halfway through the fruit growth period. The highest fruit weight was observe...

Fruit productivity and quality of eight years peach and nectarine cultivars (Rich Lady, Ryan Sun, Ruby Diamond and Venus) grafted onto Cadaman-Avimag, Viking, Atlas, GxN 15, GF 677, MRS 2/5 and Nemaguard (control) rootstocks were evaluated. A Split Plot experimental design was used, with each rootstock/scion combination as an experimental unit. Total yield, fruit size distribution, number of fr...

In order to investigate the effect of pruning and potassium nutrition on pumpkin grain yield and quality, a factorial experiment based on complete block design with four replications was carried out in nooshar village of ardabil province, Ardabil, Iran, in 2007. Experimental factors include potassium nutrition in three level (0, 75 and 150 kg/ha from potassium sulfate) and stem pruning (without...

in order to evaluate the effect of water stress on fruit quality and quantity of some iranian melons, the experiment was set out in a split plot design with three replicates in research filed of university of zanjan in 2014. treatments consisted arrangement of three irrigation levels (starting irrigation at 100, 66 and 33 etc) and 11 genotypes of iranian melons (ʼkhatouniʻ, ʼkaliʻ, ʼorshangʻ, ʼ...

Jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill.) fruit is an important medicinal plant in Iran. The harvesting time is a crucial for jujube fruit quality. Several characteristics of jujube fruit when harvested at four development stages; white mature (light green), crisp mature (white-red), fully mature (red) and fully ripe (dehydrated brown) were evaluated. Fruit weight, diameter, volume, pulp to stone ratio, f...
