| Abstract | ||
| A split plot field experiment was conducted during two successive seasons of 2006 and 2007 in order to investigate the response of two Gladiolus cultivars; White Prosperity and Rose Supreme to the application of chicken manure at four rates (0, 30, 60 and 90 m3 / fed.) in the new reclaimed soil at West Samalout. Minia, Egypt. Obtained results showed that cv. White Prosperity was significantly superior to cv. Rose Supreme in few parameters and slight differences were detected for other ones. Concerning chicken manure application significantly enhanced the vegetative characters, flowering parameters, were detected bulb formation aspects and chemical constituents determinations. The highest ovrall values were obtained due to supplying both cultivars with chicken manure at 90 m3 / fed. | ||
