Abstract
Summary and Conclusion
The present investigation was conducted in the two successive seasons of 1993/1994 and 1994/1995 to study the influence of the application of three nitrogen sources i.e. ammonium nitrate, ammonium sulphate and urea and three levels of sulphur (0.0, 100 and 200kgs/Fed) as well as their combined effect on the growth, development, storage and nitrate content in bulbs of garlic cultivars Balady and Chinese.
The experimental design was a split - split plot design with four replications where the cultivars were distributed at random in the main plots. Nitrogen source and sulphur treatments were distributed at random in the sub - plot and sub-sub- plots, respectively.
The cloves were planted at 7cm apart on both sids of ridges. The planting dates were 10th and 16th of October, in the first and second seasons, respectively.
The recorded data were : plant height, number of leaves per plant, fresh weight, % of dry weight of the vegetative growth (above ground portion), bulb, fresh weight, % of bulb dry weight, cured bulb weight cured bulb diameter, number of cloves per bulb and % of weight loss during curing and after one, four and seven months from the beginning of storage as well as fresh and cured yield. Also, the nitrate content of the clove dry weight were determined. The recorded data were statistically analysed.
