Abstract
The present study was carried out at the Experimental Farm, Horticulture Department, Faculty of
Agriculture, Suez Canal University during two successive seasons (2012 & 2013). The objective was to study the effect
of moringa leaf extract (MLE) spray at 0.0, 2.5, 5 and 10 gm /L on vegetative growth, yield, leaf area, oil percentage
and the anatomical leaf structure of sage plant under sandy soil conditions. Spraying with MLE especially at highest
concentration (10gm/L) significantly increased the plant height, number of leaves, number of branches, yield and
essential oil percentage in herb. In addition such treatment markedly increased the percentage of most essential oil
component and enhancement the characteristic of leaf anatomy of sage plants.
