Özet

Field trials were conducted in two locations: the training fields of the EgeUniversity Odemis Vocational High School and Ege University, MenemenResearch, Application and Production Farm, where the effects of differentplant densities and nitrogen levels on macro and micro element contents ofokra (Abelmoschus esculentus L.) were investigated. The experiments wereconducted using a split-plot design with three replicates, where the main plotsconsisted of nitrogen applications and sub-plots of plant densities. Nitrogenfertilizers were applied in the form of urea and ammonium nitrate. Five different nitrogen levels (0, 40, 80, 120 and 160 kg N ha-1) and two different distances between rows (15 cm * 70 cm and 25 cm * 70 cm) were tested. Macroand micro nutrients in fruits and leaves were determined. The N content of theleaves increased with higher nitrogen levels in the Odemis location. The maximum nitrogen content in leaves was determined at the 80 kg N ha-1applicationin this location. Additionally, the content of Mg, Zn, and Mn in the leaves andP, Ca, Mg, Fe, and Zn in fruits significantly affected nitrogen doses at theOdemis location. The Mg, Cu and Zn uptake of leaves and Zn content in fruitwhen compared to the control parcel significantly affected nitrogen doses at Menemen.
