The effective nutrients management is requiring for increase the productivity and development of cowpea crop as suitable agronomic practice. A field experiment was conducted during the two summer seasons of 2018 and 2019 at Sakha Agricultural Research Station Farm, Kafr El-Sheikh Governorate, Egypt on cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) cv. Kafr El-Sheikh to study the impact of organic and inorganic fertilizers and foliar spray with K, Ca and B and their interactions on vegetative parameters, seed yield and leaf chemical composition as well as protein content and seeds germination percentage. Results indicated that, the highest values of vegetative growth parameters i.e., plant height (cm), No. of branches/plant, plant fresh and dry weights and chemical composition of leaves (N, P, K, Ca and B), as well as the percentage of protein and germination seeds were recorded by fertilized plants with 50% mineral + 50% organic (compost). Cowpea plants were sprayed with 1cm/l potassium sulfate showed better growth performance, higher values of chemical constituents especially N, P and K in leaves than unsprayed plants. Also, the best results on most growth parameters, leaves chemical constituents were resulted when plants were fertilized by 50% mineral as ammonium nitrate (50 kg/fed.) + 50% organic as compost (1.2 or1.3ton/fed.) and sprayed with potassium sulfate at 1cm/l. Therefore, this treatment could be recommended for improving cowpea plants performance under similar condition of this study.

This study was planned to assess variability and heritability with genetic advance in okra, using 18 divers’ families; which produced from three cycles of individual plant selection, Balady cultivar, during the three summer seasons of 2014, 2015 and 2016. The 18 selected families were grown in a randomized complete block design with three replications during summer 2017 at the Experimental Station Farm, Faculty of Agriculture, Alexandria University; at Abies, Alex, A.R.E. Observations that recorded on ten characters reflected considerable variability. The results indicated, also, that the all 18 selected families, that obtained after three cycles of individual plant selection; varied in their horticultural characteristics, and exhibited highly significant differences, with desirable effect, for all studied characters. Moreover, the mean performances showed uniform plants within each family; and a clear indication of agronomic superiority of some families over others, as well as, over the original population also was recorded. Mean values were used to determine characters’ phenotypic and genotypic variances, phenotypic and genotypic coefficients of variation, broad sense heritability and genetic advance. Clear narrow range of different between PCV and GCV was observed for six characters from ten studied characters; plant height, internode length, branches number per plant, pod diameter, total pods number per plant and total pods weight per plant. High heritability along with high genetic advance as percent of the mean were obtained for total yield per plant, pods number per plant, branches number per plant, internode length and plant height revealing the importance of additive gene action in the inheritance of these characters and suggested reliable okra improvement through selection of these traits.

A pot experiment was carried out at Botanical Garden of National Gene Bank, Agricultural Research Center, Giza, Egypt during 2018 and 2019 seasons to investigate the effect of pinching treatments and foliar spraying with paclobutrazol (PBZ) on Mexican petunia (Ruellia simplex C.Wright), aiming to produce more compact plants. Three pinching treatments (non, single after 1 month from transplanting and double after 1 and 3 months from transplanting) and 4 PBZ concentrations of 0, 50, 100 and 150 ppm at one-month interval and their combined treatments laid out as a factorial RCBD was employed in this study. Best single-treatment results of dense foliage were found with single pinching or PBZ at either 50 or 100 ppm. As for combined effects, single pinching + spraying with PBZ at 100 ppm was the superior combined treatment; with a reduced plant height by 50.17 and 50.06%, increased number of branches/plant by 95.85 and 96.18%, reduced number of leaves/plant by only 10.27 and 9.26% and increased number of flowers/plant by 51.97 and 48.43% in both seasons, respectively. However, this treatment delayed flowering by 5.3 days in the first season only. The highest values regarding chlorophylls (a and b), carotenoids and total indoles were recorded by this superior combined treatment. Finally, it is recommended to treat Mexican petunia plants cultivated in 16-cm-pots filled with peat moss + perlite (1:1 by volume) with single pinch after 1 month from transplanting + 4 applications at one-month interval with PBZ at 100 ppm for optimum stunting with satisfied quality as pot plant. et al.
