Abstract

To investigate the effects of soil fertility methods on the yield and yield components of hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis L.) in the different harvests, an experiment was conducted as a factorial in a randomized complete block design with three replications in Karaj (Alborz province) in 2017. The experimental treatments included the harvest time and soil fertility methods. The results showed that the first harvest had higher plant height, number of sub-branches, and leaf area index and the second harvest had higher plant dry matter weight and chlorophyll content. With the soil fertility, the plant height, number of sub-branches, plant dry matter weight, leaf area index, chlorophyll content, essential oil yield, and nutrients uptake increased significantly. The highest plant height and number of sub-branches was obtained from the application of 120 kg ha^-1 nitrogen+ 96 kg ha^-1 phosphorus+ 120 kg ha^-1 potassium treatment. The maximum dry matter weight of the plant was allocated to the combination of 20 t ha^-1 manure with 80 kg ha^-1 nitrogen+ 64 kg ha^-1 phosphorus+ 80 kg ha^-1 potassium. The highest essential oil yield was obtained from the 120 kg ha^-1 nitrogen+ 96 kg ha^-1 phosphorus+ 120 kg ha^-1 potassium treatment which was statistically in the same group as the treatments including 40 t ha^-1 manure, combination of 30 t ha^-1 manure with mycorrhiza, and combination of 40 kg ha^-1 nitrogen+ 32 kg ha^-1 phosphorus+ 40 kg ha^-1 potassium with 30 t ha^-1 manure. Based on the results, the desired quantitative and qualitative yield in hyssop could be achieved with the integrated feeding method and use of biological and organic fertilizers.
