Un experiment was conducted during the season of 2009/2010 to investigate the effect of sprays number (one spray , two sprays) and different concentrations of Micronite 35 and their interaction on growth and yield of Eggplant var.Bercelone.
Results showed that the sprays number and the concentration of Micronite 35 and their interaction had a significant effect on vegetative growth characteristics and yield . The interaction of two sprays with 2.5 g / l of Micronite 35 gave the highest average of plant height, leaves and branches number/plant , leaf area/plant, fruits number/plant, fruit weight, yield/ plant and yield/plastic house amounted to 79.50cm, 80.11 leaf , 13.16 branch, , 192.91Dc2 , 41.28 fruit, 139.13g, 5.741kg/plant, 2.210 ton respectively. While they were 65.28cm, 40.45 leaf, 6.32 branch, 69.28 Dc2, 20.76fruit, 120.88g, 2.50kg, 0.961 ton/donum respectively at control
