Response of Pea (Pisum sativum L.) to foliar application of ABA and vitamin C and interaction of them on some physiological characters of plant

Abstract

The field experimental was conducted during the growth winter season of 2016-2017 at Botanical garden of Department of Biology, College of Education for Pure Science (Ibn Al-Haitham), University of Baghdad. The experimental aimed to study the effect of different of foliar application (0, 10, 20) mg.L-1 and vitamin C (0, 50, 100, 150) mg.L-1 and interaction of them on some physiological characters of pea (Pisum sativum L.). The results showed that ABA increased the proline and increased the vitamin C content at 10 mg.L-1. The vitamin C increased absolute growth rate (AGR), biomass duration, proline, vitamin C content compared with control plants.
