Abstract

Grape (Vitis vinifera) is a commercially important fruit crops in world and Iran. Grape cultivated for the production of table grape, juice and dry raisins. The main purpose of this study was using foliar application of Boron and Zinc for increasing quality and yield in grapevines. The experiment was done in a Factorial Completely Randomized Design with two factors and three replications. Factors of the experiment included two levels of combination of Zn and B from of ZnSO4.H2O and H3BO3 (0 and 2 g/l). Second factor involved seven Turkmenistan cultivars (No.1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8) and one 'Rotabi Zarghan' local cultivar. The foliar application was applied at three different stages included pre and post flowering and veraison. The results of variance analysis showed that using different levels of fertilization significantly increased berry (number, length and weight), cluster (length and weight) and seed (number and size) characteristics and TSS. Based on results the most fruit set index (berry number per cluster) observed in Turkmenistan No.7, 4 and 3 cultivar respectively, although it was not significant among cultivars. Also effect of different cultivars were different significantly on chemical (TSS, TA and pH) and physical (length and weight berry, length and weight cluster and seed number and size) characters. Generally, different cultivars respond differently to application of B and Zn, that this is need to more studie. Key Word: Boron, foliar application, grape (Vitis vinifera), quality, quantity, Zinc

8 of 9 groups shown: named compounds and organisms first, then groups whose results differ (checked claim by claim), then those with positive and negative results, then the smaller groups.

Claims are grouped by organism, treatment and what was measured or targeted. A paper counts as positive when any of its claims in the group is positive.
