Abstract

The present study was conducted during consecutive  summer season of 2014 and 2015 at a private farm in Kafrelsheikh Governorate, Egypt. This study aimed mainly to investigate the effect of irrigation intervals i.e., 7, 11 and 15 days among irrigations and kaolin foliar application with different concentrations, 0, 2 and 4% on Eggplant cv. Sawad EL Laiel. The shortest irrigation interval 7 days increased the all plant growth parameters under study namely, stem length, branche number,  leaf number, leaf area, plant fresh weight and yield components as well as increased the parameters of fruit quality and productivity of irrigation. The kaolin foliar application concentrations improved plant growth, yield and fruit parameters. The highest early and total yields with favorable quality were attained under the shortest period (7 days) with kaolin foliar application at (2%), while the kaolin concentration at 4% under water stress condition (irrigation at 11 or 15 days period) was the best for plant growth, yield, and productivity irrigation with water saving the seasonal applied water than without kaolin or 2% treatments.
