BATLLE) in order to understand some physiological\neffects of adding zinc and salicylic acid. The experiment was laid in\nRandomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) and replicated three times. Zinc\nelement was sprayed in the form of chelated Zinc in three levels viz. 0, 50,\nand 100 mg\/L, which were symbolized&nbsp; by\nZn0 , Zn50 and Zn100 respectively. Salicylic acid was sprayed in four levels viz.\n0, 50, 100, and 150&nbsp; mg\/L, which were\nsymbolized by SA0, SA50, SA100 and SA150 respectively. The results showed that spraying\nthe plant with high levels of salicylic acid&nbsp;\nSA150 resulted in a significant increase in all the characteristics\nunder study. The results showed that increasing the concentration salicylic\nacid from (0) mg\/L to (150) mg\/L increased the concentration of chlorophyll in\nthe leaves, ascorbic acid and total soluble solids in\nfruits, fruit weight and the percentage of water in the leaves by 41.93 %, 3.95%, 53.86%, 108.49% and&nbsp;\n5.94%&nbsp; respectively. The&nbsp; Zn100 treatment had significantly the highest\nconcentration of chlorophyll in the leaves, ascorbic &nbsp;acid\nand total soluble solids in the fruit&nbsp;\nand&nbsp; fruit weight. The treatment\n(Zn100+SA150) had significantly higher values than other interactions for all\nthe characteristics under study except the percentage of water in the leaves,\nwhere the interaction (Zn0+SA50) surpassed the other treatments significantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key words:<\/strong> Cherry tomato, Salicylic acid, Chelated zinc, Total soluble solid,\u00a0 Concentration of ascorbic acid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/sjar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/v7n4p1.pdf\">Full paper in Arabic: PDF<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dhufr Gheni Omar(1) Othman Kalid AL-Mafargy*(1) and Hussien Aziz Mohammed(2) (1).
