Abstract
The pattern of changes in reducing the total amount of both Pb and Cd in the leaves and fruits of Valencia orange and Balady mandarin were apparent .Also, the combined treatments V.C,V.E. and EM produced a synergistic influence on the reduction of Pb and Cd inside the leaves tissue and fruits . It is interesting to mention that the combination of the treatments used induced a marked decrease in the toxic elements in the leaves and fruits peel and their pulp ,below the values maintained under single treatment through the both seasons of the study .A decrease in both Cd and Pb in leaves and fruits ,attribute to the effect of different treatments applied. Also ,significant increase in the concentrations of chlorophyll a,b and total chlorophyll were detected in both cultivars. Moreover , stimulatory effects of the treatments on total number of fruits ,fruit weight and yield per tree of Valencia orange and Balady mandarin were recorded .
