The results indicated that the values of dry weight (DW), grain yield (GY), straw yield (SY), biological yield (BY), harvest index (HI), crude protein (CP), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) uptakes by quinoa plant organs at flowering and harvest stage increased significantly with increasing biofertilizer rate, micronutrient rate and N rate up to 100 fed -1 . Partial substitution of mineral nitrogen fertilizers (MNF) by organic nitrogen fertilizer (ONF) had positive effect on all vegetative characters and chemical composition. Interaction between studied factors gave positive effect on most studied traits. The best interaction treatment that achieved the highest values for most vegetative traits and chemical characters was (N2 × b1 × T1) or (N4 × b1 × T1).","PeriodicalId":184675,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Productivity and Development","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122122406","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
