Abstract

Abstract A study was conducted to assess the growth indicators of mangroves Avicennia marina cultivated in the intertidal zone at the Khor Al-Zubair oil port site for the period from May 2020 to May 2021. The study showed high growth indicators. Recorded the highest averages indicators to the total height of the plant and the number of lateral branches were 113.4 cm and 30.4 branches. Plant-1 after 12 months from the date of planting in the site, while the highest average to indicators of the total number of leaves in the plant, the total leaf area, and the total leaf content of chlorophyll reached 176 leaves.plant-1, 3511 cm2.plant-1, and 52.7 μg.cm-2 were after 9 months of cultivation in the field, respectively. While the plants achieved survival rates of 78% at the end of the experiment. The results were compared according to the Least Significant Difference (L.S.D.) test at a probability level of 0.05.
