Abstract

This study was carried out during (2010-2011) and (2011-2012) seasons to investigate the effect of soil application of four levels of sheep manure (0, 15 , 30 and 45 kg /tree), foliar application of ascorbic acid at four concentrations (0, 100 , 200 and 300 mg.L -1 ) and four levels of sulphur (0, 150, 300 and 450 g/tree) on some growth characteristics of apricot trees (Prunus armeniaca L. ) cv. Royal for two growing seasons 2011 and 2012, A factorial experiment with four replicates was carried out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (R.C.B.D). Results indicated that the leaf area, leaf dry weight and total chlorophyll content in the apricot leaves significantly increased by increasing the application of sheep manure, ascorbic acid and sulphur levels at both seasons.
