Abstract

The present study was carried out during the two successive seasons of 2014 and 2015 on five years old Wonderful
pomegranate cultivar (Punica granatum, L) in order to investigate the effect of fruit bagging, spraying with lime milk,
super nano, CaCO3, vitamin C and kaolin, as well as, nitrogen and potassium fertilization on the fruit quality especially
the incidence of sunburn. The obtained results showed that all treatments significantly affected fruit sunburn percentage
and number of sunburned fruits, especially bagging, super nano and kaolin sprays. A significant decrease in the sunburn
severity occurred with the bagging and super nano sprays treatments. All different treatments increased fruit TSS and
vitamin C. Spraying super nano on the fruit was the best in increasing TSS/acidity ratio. Spraying lime milk or super nano
on the tree and were the best in increasing fruit anthocyanin content.
