Abstract

This study was conducted in one of the unheated plastic house at the Department of Horticulture and Landscape design, College of Agriculture and Forestry, University of Mosul during spring season 2018 to study the impact of two factors, the first: Tuber depth , 10 and 15 cm, the second: Zinc sulphate spraying on potato plants Actrice variety, 0, 150, 300 and 450 mg. l-1, the experiment was designed in the Split Plot system within a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replicates. The results could be summarized as: Tuber planted at 15 cm depth and spraying with zinc sulphate 450 mg. l-1 increased plant higher, number of stems per plant, leaf area per plant, whole dry matter percentage, number of tubers per plant, plant yield and total mg. l-1 .
