Abstract
This study was conducted during 2014 and 2015 seasons to examine the effect of spraying boric acid and/orglutathione each at (0.05 up to 0.1%) three times at monthly intervals starting from the first March, on growth, treenutritional status, yield and fruit quality of "Keitte" mango trees grown under sandy calcareous soil. An obviouspromotion was revealed on all growth aspects, leaves pigments and nutrients content, fruit retention%, yield and fruitquality as affected by the tested treatments. Glutathione was appreciably superior to boric acid in this respect and usingboth together was preferable than using them individually. The promising treatment was the application of boric acidplus the antioxidant glutathione each at 0.1and 0.05%without significant differences among them. Therefore, from theeconomical point of view, it is advised to use this treatment at 0.05%, to obtain acceptable yield and fruit quality of"Keitte" mango trees grown under sandy calcareous soil.
