Effect Of Fertilizer Treatments On Plant Characteristics In Chickpea Varieties In Pre-Flowering And Full-Flowering Periods

Abstract

The experiment was conducted at Dicle University Field Crops Department, Southeast Anatolia, Diyarbakir, Turkey in early spring growth period in 2018 -2019. The study were evaluated the effect of fertilizer treatments (control, diammonium phosphate, urea, phosphorus, and Rhizobium) on plant traits of chickpea varieties (Gokce, Diyar 95, Aziziye 94 and Taek-Sagel). The fertilizer treatments were applied with sown in both years, and plants were harvest in pre-flowering and full flowering periods. Measurements were taken on root, root nodule and leaf traits. In the pre-flowering period, dap and phosphorus treatments for the number of nodules plant-1were higher than control group. Plant height, fresh root weight, fresh leaf weight, and dry nodule weight were no affected by fertilizer treatments in both periods.
