Randomized Complete Block Design

An experiment was conducted in unheated greenhouse units of the Department of Horticulture and Landscape -College of Agriculture- University of Baghdad on the first of October,   to observe the effects of amony interaction of crown diameter, chilling,  and foliar application of gibberellic acid on vegetative growth, and reproductive in cv. ‘Festival’ of strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa (Duch)). Using randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD), Plants were sorted into two groups according to crown diameter (11-15mm (Cd1)  and  6-10 mm (Cd2)), each of them sorted into two groups [Ch0 (without cold storage) and Ch1 (kept in a cold storage for  three weeks at 1-2°C), gibberellic acid was sprayed on plants, with concentration treatments included a control (G0) (distilled water), 150 mg. L–1 (G1) and 300 mg. L–1 (G2).The results showed the highest leaf number and Leaf area. Plant-1, (26.33), (29.70 dcm2) in (Cd1.Ch1.GA0) and (Cd1.Ch1. GA1) respectively, Number of stolon increased significantly by GAs application, the highest number were (8.3) in (Cd1.Ch1. GA2). The highest value of the TSS % was produced from the plants under the effect of  the treatment (Cd1.Ch1. GA0) (8.5%) and the highest pH were 3.70 from the treatment (Cd2.Ch0.GA2). The results indicated the superiority of treatment (Cd1.Ch0.GA0)     in fruit number (22.4), weight (17.77g) and a plant yield (398.2g).

The Individual

Senescence of lower leaves of Easter lilies (Lilium longiflorum Thunb.) was previously shown to be delayed with application of the growth regulators, gibberellic acid (GA3) and benzyladenine (BA). This study was done to determine the physiological effects of GA3 and BA in relation to the delay of leaf senescence. Foliar application with 500 ppm BA or GA3 delayed chlorosis and lowered respiration rate in Easter lily leaves. A combination of 500 ppm BA and 500 ppm GA3 was more effective than the individual application of each. Gibberellic acid, BA, or their combination before cold storage resulted in delayed chlorosis and lowered respiration following removal from cold storage. Treatment with growth regulators after cold storage was less effective. Senescence of leaves was not associated with ethylene since ethylene production by leaves was undetectable by gas chromatograph. In addition, pulsing or continuous treatment with silver thiosulphate (STS), an inhibitor of ethylene synthesis, did not delay foliar chlorosis. Analysis of carbohydrate levels in Easter lily leaves treated with GA3, BA, or their combination may contribute to the understanding of the physiological effects of these two growth regulators.

The effect of foliar application of plant growth regulators, paclobutrazol (1000 mg/L), chlorcholine chloride (200 mg/L) and gibberellic acid (100 mg/L) on leaf water status in grapevine graftlings of cv Cardinal was investigated. After stratification and waxing, young vines were planted into vegetation pots and grown in a glasshouse. Foliar treatments were applied once, twice or three times during the vegetative period, starting on 25 July and every 15 days thereafter. Values of total water potential (Tl) and of relative water content (RWC) were measured over the same period. Results indicate a tendency of increased TL values in leaves of plants repeatedly treated with a growth inhibitor paclobutrazol (-1.18 Mpa) compared with untreated (-1.36 Mpa) as well as plants treated twice with gibberellic acid (-1.37 Mpa). RWC in leaves was significantly increased in the second half of the vegetative period when paclobutrazol was applied twice (78%) in comparison with control (75%). Values of both investigated indices point to a more favorable water status of plants treated during the vegetative period with growth inhibitors compared with untreated and plants treated with gibberellic acid.
