Abstract | ||||
During the 2017/2018 and 2018/2019 seasons a field experiment was conducted at the Agriculture Faculty Experimental Farm, New Valley University to study the response of some canola cultivars to foliar spraying with antioxidants. The experiment carried out in the complete randomized block design (RCBD) with using strips orthogonal system in the experimental units’ arrangement. Antioxidants foliar application of 200 ppm of Ascorbic, Citric and Ascorbic + Citric were arranged vertically while, canola cultivars (Pactol, Tpaz, Serw-4, Serw-6 and AD-201) were assigned horizontally. The obtained results showed that Serw-6 cultivar exhibit superiority other cultivars under study in racemes number, silique number and plant seeds weight as well as seed and oil yields/fed. in the two growing seasons. While, Serw-4 cultivar superior other cultivars under study in plant height and thousand seed weight. In addition, Pactol cultivar superior other cultivars in oil% in both seasons. Antioxidant foliar spray significantly improved all traits under this study the results were in favor of foliar spraying by Citric acid (200 ppm).The highest seed yield/fed (971.8 and 1020.5 kg/fed) in the two successive seasons, respectively were obtained from plants of Serw-6 cultivar which were sprayed by Citric acid. While, the highest oil yield/fed (379.60 and 379.10 kg/fed) in the two successive seasons, respectively were obtained also from Serw-6 cultivar plants which were sprayed by Ascorbic acid in the first season and Citric acid in the second season. This study recommends cultivation of Serw-6 canola cultivar with foliar spraying by Citric acid or Ascorbic acid (200 ppm). | ||||
