GROWTH AND YIELD RESPONSES OF THREE GENOTYPES OF PASSION FRUIT (PASSIFLORA VAR. FLAVICARPA AND VAR. EDULIS) TO THREE LEVELS OF POTASSIUM FERTILIZER TREATMENT UNDER TWO ENVIRONMENTS
ABSTRACT Two environments (high tunnel and open field) and three levels of potassium fertilizer (0kg/ha, 100kg/ha and 200kg/ha) were evaluated for their effects on early growth and yield of three genotypes of passion fruits - conventional, purple and hybrid KPF-4 . Seedlings grown under the two environments showed significant (p<0.05) differences for the morphological growth parameters at varying months after treatment application. Highest numbers of unifoliate leaves 42.2, were observed ...
