Özet
Boron is an important micronutrient for growth and development of crop plants. Plant species differ
in their requirement of boron for growth. This study was conducted to determine the effect of boron
application on the plant characteristics of maize during early leaf stages. The experiments were
conducted in Tel – Kaliş agricultural research area at the Mustafa Kemal University in 2015 and
2016 growing seasons. The field experiments were arranged in a split plot design with three
replications. Four boron dosages (control, 4, 6 and 8 mg/m2
) were applied at three growing stages
(V2, V4 and V2V4 (at V2 and V4 stages in two equal parts) as foliar spray. The results revealed that
the effects of foliar application of B were positive but statistically insignificant on plant
characteristics. Further researches should be conducted for suitable boron application time at
different growth stages of maize.
