Abstract | ||||
This study investigated the effect of integrating mineral, organic, biofertilizers, and wood vinegar on yield and its components of five bread wheat genotypes. The genotypes studied were two promising mutant lines, Taqa 14 and Taqa 176, one promising line, while two commercial varieties, Sakha 95 and Giza 171, were used. The study also aims to maximize wheat productivity while minimizing the use of mineral fertilizers and environmental pollution in low-fertility sandy soil conditions. Field experiments were conducted in the 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 growing seasons. Significant variations were observed among fertilization treatments, genotypes, and their interaction in terms of yield and yield components. The results show that it is preferable to use F6 (180kg N/ ha + organic fertilizer + bio-fertilizer + wood vinegar) and F4 (120kg N /ha + organic fertilizer + bio-fertilizer) due to the decrease in the amount of mineral fertilization by 25 and 50% of the recommended dose (240 kg N/ha). Meanwhile, these treatments recorded a significant increase in grain, biological yields and most yield components. The superior increases in grain yield and its components were produced by the promising mutant lines Taqa 176 and Taqa 14 compared to the commercial varieties. | ||||
