The experiment was carried out in the one fields of Saba Abcar area - north of Baghdad during
winter season of 2022-2023 to study the effect of arginine and gibberellin acid on the some
qualitative traits and active ingredients of chamomile plant. The experiment was designed
according to randomized complete block design at three replications, the first factor included
the spraying of three concentrations of arginine (0, 50 and 150 mg L-1), whereas the second
factor included the spraying of three concentrations of GA3 (0, 100 and 200 mg L-1). The results
showed that the spraying of arginine at a 50 mg L-1 was significantly superiority in the
chlorophyll index (26.63 SPAD), carbohydrates percentage (50.38%) and volatile oil yield
(13.84 Kg ha-1), while the spraying of arginine at a 150 mg L-1 was significantly superiority in
the protein percentage (10.18%). Also, the results revealed that the spraying of GA3 at 100 mg
L-1 was significantly superiority in the chlorophyll index (24.90 SPAD), carbohydrates
percentage (50.79%) and volatile oil yield (16.30 Kg ha-1), whereas the spraying of arginine at
a 200 mg L-1 was significantly superiority in the protein percentage (9.83%). The interaction
between studied factors had significant effect on the all studied traits. Further, the results of
HPLC analysis showed a difference in the percentages of the active ingredients of chamomile
volatile oil.
