Abstract:
Perennial wall-rocket (Diplotaxis tenuifolia L.) is a less studied species in Romania. It belongs to the Brassicaceae family, being cultivated for its fresh leaves used in the preparation of salads. In this context, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of different type of fertilizers application on productivity indicators of perennial wall-rocket, cultivated in open field. The monofactorial experience was located in the didactic and experimental field of the Vegetables Discipline within the Faculty of Horticulture, U.S.V. Iasi. The experimental variants were represented by the application of different types of fertilizers, as follows: V1= organic (fertilization with vermicompost), V2= chemical (fertilization with Complex 16:16:16), V3= organic (fertilization with Orgevit), V4= microorganisms (Micoseeds MB) and V5= unfertilized. The best results for all the investigated parameters were obtained in the case of the variant treated with chemical fertilizers, followed, in descending order, by the variants fertilized with vermicompost, Orgevit and Micoseeds MB.
