Abstract: |
This investigation was conducted on fruitful trees of sweet orange ″Citrus sinensis L.″ belonging to Hamlin cultivar budded on Sour orange rootstock to study the possibility to get rid of or facing the creasing disorder through some foliar application with Ca, Mn, Zn, Cu and Co solutions, besides the response of Hamlin fruit quality and nutritional status (leaf and rind mineral composition) to the investigated spray treatments. Obtained results revealed that all investigated spray treatments reduced obviously the creasing incidence, in spite of Ca, Co and Zn application either each element was applied solely or in combination were the most effective. In addition, both nutritional status and fruit qualities were responded to the investigated treatments. |
