Abstract

An experimental was conducted in order to investigate the effect of different levels of salicylic acid (0, 0.5, 1 and 2 mM) and three levels of irrigation [100, 66 and 33 percent evapotranspiration] on some morphological and physiological characteristics of olive cv. ‘Konsevalia as factorial based on a randomized complete block design with three replications in greenhouse of Agricultural Faculty of Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz in 2015-2016. Results of ANOVA table showed that interaction of salicylic acid and irrigation had significan effect on fresh and dry root weight, stem and leaf, leaf area and plant height at P
