Table 1. Chlorophyll content (mgg-1 DW) in apricot leaf samples under different soil surface
maintenance approaches, on average for the period 2020 – 2022
CONCLUSIONS
The results obtained show that the chemical weed control favoured the
accumulation of larger amounts of potassium, calcium, magnesium and iron
in the apricot leaves. The highest values for the content of leaf pigments and
mineral elements were established in the variant treated with flumioxazin – ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
