The results showed that improving characteristics vegetative growth due to treatments especially foliar application treatments by (ATS) compound with concentration 3% and increasing leaf area, length and diameter shoot length and nitrogen percent in leaf gave 44.11 (cm<sup>2<\/sup>), 62.55 (cm), 0.71 (mm) and 2.62 (%), respectively, also this treatment reduced fruit set compared other treatment and control trees and gave value 57.12% and increased productivity 69.40 (kg\/tree). Also improved fruit weight and fruit size. This treatment recorded positive values for chemical proprieties of fruits compared control trees such SSC, total sugar and anthocyanin content and recorded 11.22%, 8.99 (100 mcg\/ml of glucose) and 19.88 (mg\/100g fresh weight).\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><strong>Key words:<\/strong> Thinning, Productivity, Foliar application, Ammonium thiosulfate, Peach, July elberta<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><strong>Full paper in Arabic:<a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/wp-content\/uploads\/v12n1p9.pdf\"> pdf\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ziad Khouri (1)*, Mohammad Nizam(1), Ihab Ahmad(1), Ghaith Nassor(1) and Ammar Askarieh (1) (1).
