Abstract: 

This research was carried on in Tartous City in 2022 season to study the effect of treating  Arachis hypogaea with dry yeast suspension in the concentration of (5,10)g/l by foliar spraying and watering. Plants were treating tow time , first 45 day after sowing, second after 60 day of sowing. Results showed significant increase in plant height which reached (34.27)cm in the treatment of 5g/l foliar spraying, the increase in treatment of watering 10 g/l wasn’t significant comparing with control, while higher value of secondary branches was (14.23) branch/ plant at treatment of watering 5g/l, whole treatments have significant increase comparing with control. All treatments have significant increase in leaf area except treatment of 5g/l foliar spraying comparing with control, higher value of leaf area was(750.11)cm2 at treatment of watering 5g/l. Leaf area index increased significantly at all treatments compared with control, treatment of watering 5 g/l has higher value (6.25). Wet and dry weight of plant increased significantly at all treatments compared with control, except treatment of watering 5 g/l and treatment of 10 g/l foliar spraying, highest values were(601.44,228.5)g/plant consequently at   treatment of watering 10g/l.
