Abstract
Pot experiments were conducted in 2006-2008 to evaluate the effect of nitrogen and boron fertilization on the morphometric features and yield of coriander. The research showed significant positive effect of increasing nitrogen fertilization on stem length, number of I line side branchings, inflorescences and fruit number per plant and negative effect on I side branching height. With increasing nitrogen fertilization fruit number and fruit yield per coriander plant were higher, and the maximum yield was obtained at the highest nitrogen rate. Coriander reacted to increasing nitrogen rates with an increase of fruit yield per plant, however at the same time decrease of the weight of 1000 fruits was observed, mainly as a result of formation of a greater number of them. In the research, boron fertilization did not differentiate morphometric features or the fruit yield of coriander.
