Abstract
A pot experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of saline water treatments on the growth and nutrient contents of Early 116 and wonderful pomegranate seedlings as new foreign varieties which can be cultivated in newly reclaimed soils in Egypt. One year old seedlings of pomegranate varieties were grown in pots filled with sandy soil, where they subjected to three saline water stress (1500, 3000, 4500 ppm) as well as tap water as a control treatment (288 ppm). In general, increasing salinity levels led to decrease all tested growth parameters and nutrient contents as compared with control treatment while, the contents of Na+, Cl- and proline were increased. Also, the results indicated that, under different salinity levels wonderful cultivar gave higher values of shoot growth, leaf area, number of new sprouted shoots, leaf proline content and leaf nutrient contents as compared with Early 116 cultivar. Therefore, cultivation of pomegranate Wonderful cultivar in newly reclaimed soils (that contains high salinity and low quality of irrigation water) is highly recommended as compared with Early 116 taken into consideration ionic balance and suitable fertilization program to avoid the hazard effects of salinity.
