Abstract

Two field experiments were conducted during the winter seasons of 2007/2008 and 2008/2009 at Ismailia Experimental Station, Agriculture Research Center, Ismailia Governorate, to study the influence of foliar feeding with magnesium , copper either as single nutrient or in combination on yield ;yield components and grains quality of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cv. Sakha 94. Nine treatments were applied: two levels of Mg, two levels of Cu and four combined treatments (Mg + Cu), in addition to control treatment. Results showed that positive significant effect on plant height (cm), tillers number/m 2 , spike number/m 2 , spike length (cm), spike weight (g), grains number/spike, grains weight /spike (g), 1000-grain weight (g), grains yield/fed. and straw yield/fed. were achieved by spraying the of copper and magnesium treatments. However, the highest significant increment in grain yield was obtained by spraying the highest Cu level (1.68 kg Cu/fed.), while spraying the lowest Cu level (0.84 kg Cu/fed.) gave the highest straw yield. On the other hand, combination treatment (6.72 kg Mg + 1.68 kg Cu/fed.) showed the highest values for protein, N, Mg, Cu and Zn contents. However, spraying wheat plants with low Cu level (0.84 kg Cu/fed.) gave the highest value of grain carbohydrate percentage.
