A greenhouse and a 1-year field study were conducted during the cropping season on the effects of B on yield and some yield components of bread (Triticum aestivum L, cv. Bezostaja) and durum (Triticum durum L. cv. Kiziltan) wheat cultivars in a B-deficient soil (0.68 mg kg^{-1}, NH4OAc extractable). Boron was applied as H_3BO_3 at 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 mg B kg^{-1} in the greenhouse study and 0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0 kg B ha^{-1} in the field study. Shoot dry weights of Bezostaja and Kiziltan significantly increased regardless of the applied B levels in …
