EEFFECT OF COW MANURE AND IROOT PROMOTER ON SOME VEGETATIVE AND ROOT GROWTH OF GRAPE TRANSPLANT C.V HALAWANI

Abstract

This experiment was carried out in experimental site , college of Agriculture , University of Baghdad / AL-Jadriya campus during the growing seasons 2016 and 2017 to investigate the influence of manuring with cow manure and foliar spray with iRoot on vegetative and root growth of grape transplants c.v. Halawani , the experimental designWas RCBD with three replicates and twelve treatments ,the Grape treatments was planted in post ,10 kg growing media , the first factor was manuring with four levels of cow manures 0 , 0.5 , 1.0 , 1.5 kg from weight of soil , the second factors was foliar spray with iRoot aconcentrion of 0 , 0.1 , 0.2 mol .l-1 , the addition of growth promoter was done for three times every 15 days for the grown season m the experimental results showed that manuring and foliar spray with iRoot significantly influenced all characters , the interaction treatment with cow manure and the growth promoter iRoot significantly increased the single leaf a percentage of (59.69 and 224.3 % ) and the leaf area by (106.8 and 281.3%) for both season respectively , the same treatment significantly the length , diameter , the surface area , and the dry weight of roots by a percentage of ( 161.4%) ,(297.5%) ,(135.6%) and (139.3%) respectively .
