Abstract
This study was done in the lath house of the Horticulture and Gardening Dept. / College of Agriculture / University of Anbar during the growth season 2021 to study the effect of leaf spraying kelamyth chelated Fe in three levels (0, 50, 100 mg.L-1), with three levels Alga Mix of (0, 1, 1.5 g.L-1) and their interaction on vegetative growth traits and leaf content of minerals for buckthorn seedlings AL-Tafahi cultivar. The results showed that the interaction between chelated kelamitic Fe and F2S2 algae mixture at a concentration (100 mg.L-1 kelamitic Fe + 1.5 g.L-1 algae mixture) had given a significant increase in plant height, number of branches, leaf area, chlorophyll, carbohydrates, Fe and saponins. Successively with values (75. 057cm, 19.183 units.seedling-1, 23.833cm2, 41.537 mg. g-1 fresh weight, 3.800%, 194.000 ppm, 1.545 c.ml-1), compared to control treatments.
