Effects of magnetic fields on yield and growth in strawberry ‘Camarosa’
2003
Eşİtken, Ahmet
This study was carried out in a heated greenhouse on the short-day strawberry ‘Camarosa’ as experimental material. Strawberry plants were treated with magnetic flux density fields (MF) of control (natural), 0.096, 0.192 and 0.384 Tesla (T). Fruit yield per plant and average fruit weight were greater at low MF strengths than the control and the high MF strength. Increasing MF strength from control to 0.096 T increased fruit yield per plant (208 and 246.g, respectively), but MF strengths higher than 0.096 T reduced fruit yield. All the MF strengths increased average fruit weight compared with the control, although the largest fruit (8.92.g) were determined at 0.096 T. On the other hand, MF had positive effect in terms of number of leaves, fresh and dry root weight but crown per plant and leaf area was not significantly affected by MF. In addition, high MF strength had a negative effect on plant growth.
