EFFECT OF IRRIGATION INTERVALS AND SOME FOLIAR APPLICATION TREATMENTS ON DRY BEAN (PHASEOLUS VULGARIS . L) GROWTH, SEED YIELD AND QUALITY

This study was conducted to determine cultivars which grown at Van Gurpinar ecological conditions and their some important agricultural and plant properties in 2013 year in center of Gurpinar. In the study was used 13 cultivars which officially registered such as Bulduk, Akın, Göynük, Karacaşehir 90, Arslan, Özdemir, Önceler, Battal, Zülbiye, Göksun, Akman 98, Akdağ and Güngör and 2 genotypes (Gevaş 1 and Gevaş 2). The trial was conducted by using randomized complete blocks design with the three replications. In the study were investigated sowing times on plant height, first pod height, numbers of branches, numbers of pod per plant and numbers of seed per plant, numbers of seed per pod, seed yield per unit area, harvest index, biological yield and 1000 seed weight. While the highest seed yield per area was obtained from Bulduk varieties with 360.4 kg da-1, the lowest seed yield per area was obtained from Önceler with 201.6 kg da-1.

Close to 80% of dry beans in western Canada are grown in southern Manitoba. A need was identified to develop soil-testing criteria based on local conditions as well as derive an optimum fertilizer rate to alleviate Zn deficiency. Two experiments with a number of dry bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cultivars were carried out between 2000 and 2002 at a number of locations in Manitoba. Each experiment included two trials per year. The first experiment consisted of two foliar application rates of Zn (0 and 0.33 kg ha-1) as main plots and five rates of broadcast and incorporated soil Zn (0, 2.8, 5.6, 8.4 and 11.2 kg Zn ha-1) as sub-plots. The second experiment also included two rates of foliar Zn (0 and 0.33 kg Zn ha-1) as the main plots; however, sub-plots included a control and four Zn products that were broadcast and incorporated at a rate of 5.6 kg Zn ha-1. Soil DTPA-extractable Zn levels varied from 0.38 to 1.14 mg Zn kg-1 soil. Soil Zn applications resulted in a significant increase of Zn in plant tissue levels at 1/10 bloom growth stage, however, actual levels varied, thus, suggesting that a plant tissue critical level will have to be derived separately for each cultivar. Significant seed yield responses were obtained only when DTPA-Zn levels were equal to, or less than, 0.5 mg Zn kg-1. Optimum yields at responsive sites were obtained with 5 kg Zn ha-1 broadcast and incorporated. All products used (Zn mono- and heptasulphate or oxysulphate) performed equally well, except in one case when ZnSO4.H2O exhibited superior performance. Foliar application of a sulphonic acid based Zn product was not always as effective as soil applied Zn products.
