A field experiment conducted at the 2021 agricultural season in one of the agricultural field in Anbar Governorate - Fallujah district to study the effect of root treatment with different concentrations of Mycorrhizal fungi and folair application with different concentrations of Moringa leaf extract and the interaction between them on the proportion of mineral elements in Citrullus Colocynthis leaves. The experiment carried out in a randomized complete block design (R.C.B.D) with three replications. The experiment included 16 treatments, inoculation with four concentrations of mycorrhizal fungi (0, 15, 20, 25 g), folair application with four concentrations of moringa leaf extract (0, 100, 200, 300 g. L-1) and the interaction treatment between them. The averages compared using the least significant difference L.S.D at a probability level of 0.05. The results showed that the inoculation of roots with mycorrhizal fungi gave significant differences in the studied traits, as the inoculation with mycorrhizal fungi at concentration 25 g for each plant achieved the highest values for some of the studied traits, which significantly outperformed the control treatment without addition in the ratio of nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium. While folair application with Moringa leaf extract when treated 200 g. L-1 gave the best results for the ratio of nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium. Whereas, the interaction treatment 25 gm +200 gm/l between the mycorrhizal inoculum and moringa leaf extract, respectively, gave the highest percentage of nitrogen in the leaves, while the interaction treatment 20 gm +200 g. L-1 between the mycorrhizal inoculum and moringa leaf extract, respectively, achieved the highest rate of phosphorous. and potassium in the leaves.
