Abstract
The field experiment were carried out at private field in Toukh El-Aklam Village, El-Sinblawin Center, Dakahlia Governorate, Egypt, during the three unsequent successive winter growing seasons of 2013/2014, 2014/2015 and 2017/2018 to study the effect of some broad bean cultivars, phosphorus fertilization levels and their interaction on germination and seedlings characters. The field experiments were carried out in split-plot design with three replications. The main-plots were occupied with broad bean cultivars (Sakha 1, Giza 3, Giza 843 and Giza 716). The sub-plots were assigned to phosphorus fertilizer levels (0, 15, 30 and 45 kg P2O5/fed. A laboratory experiment was carried out after the end of the field experiments in each season under the laboratory conditions of Administration of Examination and Certification of seeds in Dakahlia Governorate, Ministry of Agriculture and Land Reclamation. The purpose of this investigation was to assess seed quality resulted from the field experiment. The obtained results showed that sowing Giza 716 cultivar significantly superior studied cultivars in germination and seedlings parameters and resulted in the highest values of final germination percentage, germination rate, germination index, shoot and root lengths and seedlings vigor index during combined analysis over seasons. Application the highest level of phosphorus fertilization (45 kg P2O5/fed) produced the highest values of germination and seedlings parameters, excluding mean germination time during combined analysis over seasons. It can be concluded that fertilizing broad bean Giza 716 cultivar with kg 45 or 30 P2O5/fed could be recommend to enhance germination and seedlings characters under the environmental conditions of Dakahlia Governorate, Egypt.
