Abstract
An experiment was conducted in the lath house of Department of Horticulture, College of Agriculture, University of Baghdad, during fourteen months begins from 1/4/2009 to 1/7/2010, to investigated effect of shading in three levels (0, 25, 50) %, The second factor was irrigation with (tap water only 0 gauss, magnetized tap water 4800 gauss) on two cultivars of olive (Nabali, Khodeiri). The experiment was designed as nested with three factors, four replicates, means of experimental results were compared using LSD at 5% level using genstat computer programme. Using 192 uniform olive plants of one year old for two cultivars. The results showed that the level 50% of shading enhanced the following adjectives (length of shoot, leaf area) the results reaches (37.8cm, 926.5cm2) alternatively .While the levels 25% of shading increased (Number of shoot, Stem dia.) their results reached (14.28shoot/plant, 1.027cm) alternatively. the plants irrigated with magnetized tap water (4800 gauss) gave highest (length of shoot) reached (34.92cm) . The treatment (25%shade+Tap water +Nabali) gave highest (number of shoot) reached (15.38shoot/plant). While the treatment (50%shade+Magnetized tap water+ Nabali) increase leaf area and length of shoot to reached (1058cm2 , 42.28cm) alternatively. and the treatment (25% shade+ Magnetized tap water+ Khodeiri ) gave highest stem dia. Reached (1.077cm).
