摘要:Aloe vera L. (A. vera) belongs to family Liliaceae, used for different medical (anticancer, anti-diabetes, antioxidant, antimicrobial and anti-cardiovascular diseases) and cosmetic purposes under cosmetic purposes. Ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) is a common nitrogen (N) source. The effect of NH4NO3 (0, 150, 250 and 450 kg ha-1) on the number of leaves and leaves weight, gel content and crude aloin composition of A. vera were investigated during the years of 2013:2014 and 2014:2015. The vegetative growth characters (i.e., number of leaves and its fresh weight) in general increased significantly with different doses of NH4NO3 doses compared with one check (control). The highest vegetative growth characters were recorded in the 250 kg ha-1 of NH4NO3. Doses of NH4NO3 affected significantly for the multifarious changes in changes in gel and crude aloin contents of offsets, mother plant and the whole plant during the first and second years.
