Abstract:

Effects of five different ZN application rates (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 kg Zn da-1) on Zn efficiency and nutrient composition of three lentil cultivars, Sazak-91 (S-91), Yerli kirmizi (YK) and Kislik kirmizi-51 (KK-51), were determined in the Zn deficient field conditions during the 1998-99 and 1999-00 cropping seasons. The highest grain yields for the cultivars were obtained at the highest Zn application rate. Grain yields of the cultivars increased with increasing Zn application rates in order KK-51
