Abstract:
In order to improve the growth and yield of the roselle plant under Sharkia Governorate conditions, a split-plot experiment was conducted during the two consecutive summer seasons 2018 and 2019. The two experiments included two main factors where the first factor was planting date (15th April, 1st May, 15th May and 1st June), the second factor was amino acid concentrations as they included both tyrosine and glutamine acids at concentrations (100 and 200 ppm), next to the control (Sprayed with tap water) as well as their interaction treatments between them. Following data were recorded: plant height, number of branches per plant, number of leaves per plant, dry weight of leaves per plant and root length as plant growth parameters as well as number of fruits per plant, fresh and dry sepal's yield per plant and dry sepal's yield per faddan as yield components. Results revealed that roselle planted in 15th April produced tallest plants and more branches and leaves as well as heaviest leaf dry weight per plant compared to the other dates. Also, the early planting date (April 15) recorded the highest values of roselle yield components with significant differences and the other dates under study. Moreover, glutamine acid at 200 ppm concentration significantly increased plant growth and yield components compared to the other concentrations in both seasons. In conclusion, planting roselle seeds in 15th April and sprayed with 200 ppm glutamine four times per season appears to support growth and is adequate for achieving the highest roselle yielding under Sharkia Governorate conditions.
