Özet

The effects of elemental sulphur and farmyard manure on agronomic biofortification within the parameters of N, P, S and N: S ratio were evaluated in green bean (Phaselous vulgaris L.). Sulphur 0 (S-0), 50 (S-1), 100 (S-2), 150 (S-3), 200 (S-4), 400 (S-5) mg kg(-1) and farmyard manure 0 (FYM0), 3 (FYM1) tonnes da(-1) were applied to a calcareous sandy loam soil with low organic matter and sulphur deficient. Three weeks after the applications, bean seeds were sown in pot soils and after eight weeks of growing period the shoots were harvested. The soil pH was decreased while EC was increased by the applications of S and FYM. The P concentration of shoot was increased by S with FYM. While the dry weight and S concentration of shoot were increased, N concentration was slightly decreased by S, alone. The N: S ratio decreased from 23.76 in S0FYM0 to 15.93 in S5FYM1. All results indicate that sulphur applications in S-1 and S2 levels with farmyard manure can be sufficient for growing bean in the soil.
