Abstract

The experiment was implemented in greenhouse at College of Agriculture and Forestry, University of Mosul, During the spring growing season of 2014 to study the evaluation of genetic behavior of some traits in five cucumber hybrids (Raiane, Karol, Sayff, Karima and Baraka) under the effect of fertilization with two plant extracts treatments (control and fertilization with humic acid at concentrate 6 gm.-l) and harvesting fruits in two periods in each (two days or three days) on growth and yield of cucumber. The experiment results subjected to statistical analysis arranged in R.C.B.D. with three replications. The results can be summarized as follows, Leaves content of nutrient elements, The Baraka hybrid exhibited non-significant in N % of leaves superiority, and the hybrid Raiane in P% of leaves and the hybrid Karima in K% of leaves as compared with other hybrids. Plants fertilized with humic acid were surpassed significantly over the non-fertilized plants in N % of leaves only, The results revealed non-significance in nutrient elements percentages between the fertilized and non-fertilized plants. Treatments of triple interactions showed a significant increase in traits of N % and P % of leaves. Yield qualitative trait, The differences did not reached a significant effect between the fertilized and non-fertilized plants, The plants harvested in each of two and three days revealed non-significant differences in all traits except in trait GA3 of leaves, where the plants of two-days harvesting were superior significantly on the plants of three days harvesting.
