Improving the Vegetative Growth and Chemical Contents of Coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) Plant by Using Moringa Leaf Extract.
This study was conducted to enhance the vegetative growth, fruits yield and chemical constituents of the coriander plant, in a trial to reducing the residual effects of the chemical fertilizers. Two methods for moringa leaf extract (cold or boiled extract) with different dilutions (25, 50, 75 and 100%) beside the distilled water as the control were used. The results cleared that the superior plant dry weight, N, P and K% in leaves were recorded by using the boiled MLE at 100%. In addition, the heaviest seed index (weight of 1000 fruits) was recorded by using the boiled MLE at 75%. In addition the maximum essential oil percentage was recorded by using 100% from the boiled or the cold MLE and linalool was the main component in the essential oil.
