| Abstract | ||
| Two field experiments were conducted at the Experimental Farm of Faculty of Agriculture (Saba- Basha), Abess Region, Alexandria University, Egypt, during two seasons of 2016/2017 and 2017/2018 to study the response of some wheat cultivars to mineral and nano- fertilization. The experimental design was split- split plot system with three replicates. The main plots were occupied by the three soil mineral fertilizer NPK treatments at the rate of “100, 75, and 50%”. While, sub-plots contain three foliar application of nanofertilizer NPK fertilizer treatments “100, 75 and 50%”. Meanwhile, the four wheat cultivars “Sakha 93, Gemmeiza 11, AL-Rasheed and Abu Ghareb” are distributed at random in sub- subplots. plant height, spike length (cm), number of spikes/m2, number of spikelets /spike, number of grains/spike, 1000-grains weight (g), grain yield, straw yield (t/ha.), harvest index (HI %) and protein content were recorded in both seasons. The obtained results revealed that fertilized wheat cultivar Sakha 93 by 75 % soil application of mineral fertilization by NPK with foliar application of Nano- fertilizers (NPK) increased yield and its components of the wheatcrop under the environmental conditions of Alexandria Governorate. | ||
