ABSTRACT

The study was carried out to determine the effect of different levels of iron (0, 5, 10 and 20 kg ha-1) and molybdenum (0, 2, 4 and 6 g kg-1 seed) on the yield and yield components in lentil (Lens culinaris Medic. cv. Sazak-91). The experiments were conducted in a factorial design with three replications during 2006-07 and 2008-09 in Van, Turkey. The highest seed yield was obtained from 20 kg ha-1 iron with 956 kg ha-1 and 6 g kg-1 seed molybdenum levels with 963 kg ha-1 in the first year, while it was obtained from 20 kg ha-1 iron with 1031 kg ha-1 and 6 g kg-1 seed molybdenum with 1010 kg ha-1 in the second year. Seed nutrient contents such as protein rate, phosphorus, manganese, copper and molybdenum significantly increased under the influence of iron and molybdenum treatments over control.
