Abstract
The present study investigated the combined effect of chitosan and gibberellic acid on the fruit yield and production of peach ( Prunus persica L.). The experiment was conducted to explore sustainable and eco-friendly strategies to enhance peach productivity, reduce chemical inputs, and promote overall plant health. The design was Randomized Complete Block (RCBD) with three replications. The experiment exhibited two factors, application of gibberellic acid (Control, 100, 200, 300 ppm) and chitosan (Control, 50, 100, and 150 ppm) abundant were damaged to take its effect on the performance of peach. An early grand variety of peach was used in this research work. Trees treated with gibberellic acid had resulted in lowest Number of fruits (9.93 kg -1 ), highest Single Fruit weight (262.01 g), Fruit volume (108.75 cm 3 ), Fruit yield tree -1 (52.3 kg), Fruit firmness (4.29 kg/cm 2 ), Total soluble solid (TSS) (12.82 o Brix), Ascorbic Acid (6.3 mg/100g -1 ), lowest Fruit Drop (8.63%), Chlorophyll content (48.75SPAD), lowest Fruit Juice pH (4.47), were recorded in plants representative with 200 mg L -1
期刊介绍:
One of the most important challenges facing the contemporary scientific world are problems connected with environmental protection. Intensive development of industry and agriculture has led to a rise in living standards on one hand, but an increase in environmental degradation on the other. This degradation poses a direct threat to human health and life. Solving these ever-increasing problems which seriously endanger our civilization require the united efforts of scientists and field researchers of many branches.
The "Polish Journal of Environmental Studies" publishes original papers and critical reviews on the following subjects:
