Abstract in English
The experience was carried out at Abi-Jarash farm, Faculty of Agriculture,
Damascus University during the 2012 - 2013 growing season. During plant
growth, three fertilization treatments were applied (mineral, T1 organic, T2
and a combined of mineral and organic fertilizers, T3). At harvesting, roots
were packed in three different ways (box, perforated polyethylene bags and
non-perforated polyethylene bags) and stored in 4-5˚C and RH 90% for 94
days.
