The main objective is to study the effect of nitrogen supported with potassium and two rootstocks salt Creek and Freedom as well as their combinations on yield and fruit quality properties of Early Sweet grape vine. The study was arranged in a split plot design, hence two rootstocks (Freedom and Salt creek) were occupied in the main plot, and the subplots were split by (N+K) application levels. Whereas, three levels of nitrogen (30, 40 and 50 kg /fed) as actual nitrogen were applied. Potassium levels were added at the ratio (1:1.5 and 1:2) from nitrogen level plus control treatment was (60kg N/fed+120kgK/fed). Obtained results showed that, fertilization with high rates of nitrogen reduced cluster weight, cluster length, and cluster width of “Early Sweet” Generally, Early Sweet grapevine grafted on Salt creek rootstock fertilized with 40kg N/fed plus 80kg K/fed proved to be the most efficient effect application on yield and fruit quality.","PeriodicalId":40934,"journal":{"name":"EGYPTIAN JOURNAL OF VETERINARY SCIENCE","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46890480","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}

The aim of this study was to evaluate grafting Thomson Seedless and H4 strain cultivars on three different rootstocks (Freedom, Salt Creek, and SO4) compared with non-grafted (own rooted) to select the most suitable rootstock under clay soil conditions and surface irrigation system of the Delta region, Egypt. This experiment was conducted over four consecutive seasons (2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022), and the data were taken during the 2021 and 2022 seasons. Results showed that grafting Thomson Seedless and H4 strain cultivars on Freedom, Salt Creek and SO4 rootstocks was better than non-grafted(own rooted) on improving all studied parameters. The best results for all studied parameters were obtained when the vines were grafted on Freedom followed by Salt Creek followed by SO4. In addition, the obtained results showed that the H4 strain grafted on Freedom rootstock recorded the significant highest values as compared with Thomson Seedless grafted on Freedom in most studied parameters. Therefore, it is recommended to graft Thomson Seedless and H4 strain cultivars on Freedom rootstock under the conditions of clay soil and surface irrigation system in the Delta region, with preference planting of the H4 strain due toits good vegetative growth, high cluster weight, and yield. However, further studies to reduce the compactness coefficient of clusters are essential in this strain.","PeriodicalId":40934,"journal":{"name":"EGYPTIAN JOURNAL OF VETERINARY SCIENCE","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42947564","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}

Two soil mixtures were used in acclimatization stage. Finally, the effect of passage time and number of subcultures on multiplication rate were investigated. The results indicated that WPM followed by MS medium gave the highest shoot length and leaf number. BA at 0.4 ppm, Kin at 5.0 ppm and TDZ at 0.1 ppm achieved the most preferable values for multiplication stage but the kinetin one gave the healthiest plantlets. The most microshoots got well-formed roots in multiplication phase. Consequently, rooting stage was not required. The multiplication rate slightly decreased after the 3 rd subculture and three months of culture date proved to be the most suitable passage time among subcultures.

This work aims to improve the protocol of mass propagation, establish a cultivation system in the newly reclaimed lands and estimate the quantitative phytochemical and fingerprint of the cultivated plants. Numerous factors affected micropropagation; i.e , MS strength, growth regulators concentrations and types of explant. The highest shoot number and growth vigor were observed on 3/4 MS strength supplemented with 0.5 mg/l BA and big cluster as an explant. The highest roots number was obtained from 2.0 mg/l IAA and 0.1%AC. The acclimatization systems significantly affected the acclimatization of B. monnieri . The culture mills system possessed the highest acclimatized number followed by pots. The cultivation distance affected plant fresh and dry weight through 80 days of cultivation, 60cm cultivation distance was the best. The fingerprint of the cultivated plants was determined through eleven RAPD and thirteen ISSR primers. The number of AF differed according to the implemented molecular marker. The RAPD primers produced 34 AF, while ISSR gave 24 AF. The RAPD and ISSR were effective to determine the BM fingerprint. The quantitative analysis using HPLC stated that the main phenolic components in the ethanol/water extract were Chlorogenic acid and Gallic acid (330.36 µg/g and 309.86 µg/g, respectively).

Foliar application potassium sources such as; potassium sulfate, potassium nitrate, potassium citrate and monopotassium phosphate were applied at 1.5 % and 3 % . Spraying is carried out three times immediately after the final fruit set (May), after hardening of the pit (first week of August) and after harvesting (October). The results showed that using the studied foliar potassium sources significantly improved vegetative growth, leaf mineral composition, fruit set, yield and fruit quality of Picual olive trees in comparison with control trees. Spraying of potassium nitrate at 3 % achieved the best results in terms of vegetative growth (shoot length - number of new laterals / shoot - number of leaves - leaf area) followed by spraying with potassium citrate at 3% in both seasons.
