Ameliorative effect of calcium nitrate on cucumber and melon plants drip irrigated with saline water
Kaya, C.; Kirnak, H.; Tas, I.; Higgs, D. (2003-01-01)Cucumber (Cucumis sativus cv. Orlando) and melon (Cucumis melo cv. Ananas) were field grown to investigate the effects of supplementary calcium nitrate applied to irrigation water on plant growth and fruit yield of salt ... -
Effects of deficit irrigation on growth, yield, and fruit quality of eggplant under semi-arid conditions
Kirnak, H.; Tas, I.; Kaya, C.; Higgs, D. (2002-12)Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) cv. Pala was grown in the field from March to August 2001 in order to investigate the effects of deficit irrigation on fruit yield and quality (i.e. soluble dry matter, fruit size), leaf ... -
Effects of irrigation and nitrogen rates on growth, yield and quality of muskmelon in Sermiarid regions
Kirnak, H.; Higgs, David Edward Barry; Kaya, C.; Tas, I. (2005)Muskmelon (Cucumis melo L. cv. 'Polidor') were grown under field conditions to investigate the effects of different nitrogen (N) levels (0, 40, 80, and 120 kg ha- 1) on plant growth, water use efficiency, fruit yield and ... -
Effects of preharvest drip-irrigation scheduling on strawberry yield, quality and growth
Kirnak, H.; Simsek, M.; Kaya, C.; Bolat, I.; Ikinci, A.; Higgs, D. (2003)Strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch) cultivars, Oso Grande and Camarosa were grown in the field from July 1999 to May 2000 in order to investigate the effectiveness of preharvest drip-irrigation management on fruit yield, ... -
Effects of supplementary potassium and phosphorus on physiological development and mineral nutrition of cucumber and pepper cultivars grown at high salinity (NaCl)
Kaya, C.; Kirnak, H.; Higgs, D. (2001)Two cucumber (Cucumis sativus) cultivars, Seraset F and Rabina F, and two pepper (Capsicum annuum) cultivars, California Wonder and Charliston 52, were grown hydroponically for six weeks to investigate the effectiveness ... -
Enhancement of growth and normal growth parameters by foliar application of potassium and phosphorus in tomato cultivars grown at high (NaCl) salinity
Kaya, C.; Kirnak, H.; Higgs, D. (2001)Three tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) cvs., Rio Grande, Monika Fl, and Marylin Fl, were grown hydroponically in a controlled temperature (CT) room for 6 weeks to investigate the effectiveness of foliar application of ... -
An experiment to investigate the ameliorative effects of foliar potassium phosphate sprays on salt-stressed strawberry plants
Kaya, C.; Kirnak, H.; Higgs, D. (2001)A pot experiment was carried out with strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch) cvv. Oso Grande and Camarosa in sand culture to investigate the effects of foliar application of 4 mM KHPO to plants grown both at high NaCl ... -
Influence of polyethylene mulch, irrigation regime, and potassium rates on field cucumber yield and related traits
Kaya, C.; Higgs, D.; Kirnak, H. (2005)Cucumber (Cucumis sativus) was field grown from April 2001-July 2001 to determine the effects of mulch, irrigation regime, and potassium (K) rates on yield and related traits (i.e., leaf relative water content, water-use ... -
A long-term experiment to study the role of mulches in the physiology and macro-nutrition of strawberry grown under water stress
Kirnak, H.; Kaya, C.; Higgs, D.; Gercek, S. (2001)Strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch) cv. 'Oso Grande' was grown in the field from July 1999 to May 2000 in order to investigate the effectiveness of different mulch types on fruit yield, quality (i.e. soluble dry matter, ... -
Mycorrhizal colonisation improves fruit yield and water use efficiency in watermelon (Citrullus lanatus Thunb.) grown under well-watered and water-stressed conditions
Kaya, C.; Higgs, D.; Kirnak, H.; Tas, I. (2003-06-01)The effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) colonisation by Glomus clarum on fruit yield and water use efficiency (WUE) was evaluated in watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) cv. Crimson Sweet F1 under field conditions. Treatments ... -
Responses of drip irrigated bell pepper to water stress and different nitrogen levels with or without mulch cover
Kirnak, H.; Tas, I.; Kaya, C.; Higgs, D. (2003)Bell pepper (Capsicum annuum L. cv. 11b 14) was grown under field conditions. The aim was to investigate the effects of mulch on plant growth, water use efficiency (WUE), fruit yield and quality, leaf relative water content, ... -
