Abstract
A pot experiment was carried out in the greenhouse of Faculty of Agriculture, Alexandria University to evaluate the response of three wheat cultivars (Sakha-93, Gemiza-7 and Giza-168) grown in sandy calcareous soil to soil application of Zn as ZnSO or as Zn-EDTA. In addition, a field experiment was carried out to evaluate 4 the response of the three wheat cultivars to foliar application of Zn as either ZnSO or Zn-EDTA. The results 4 showed significant increases in dry weight of shoot, Zn concentration and Zn uptake with addition of Zn to Zn deficient soil. Sakha-93 cultivar showed the highest response to Zn soil application as either ZnSO or 4 Zn-EDTA compared to the other two cultivars with respect to the shoot dry weight. The relative increase in shoot dry weight in addition to Zn concentration and uptake in shoots was almost higher from Zn-EDTA than from ZnSO with the three cultivars. This is also indicated by the highest values of Zn use efficiency (ZnUE) 4 by shoots, which were higher from Zn-EDTA than ZnSO . Foliar application of Zn as Zn-EDTA or ZnSO 44 increased significantly the straw and grain yields of the three wheat cultivars. However, Sakha-93 showed the highest yields, while Giza-168 showed the lowest yields. The responses of the straw and grains yields and Zn concentration in grains and flag leaf of Sakha-93 to foliar application by Zn-EDTA were greater than ZnSO and 4 higher than those of Gemiza-7 and Giza-168 cultivars.
