Abstract
The present work studied the effect of foliar spray of different concentrations of titanium
(Ti, applied as titanium dioxide) and vanadium (V, applied as vanadium pentoxide) on growth,
chemical composition, antioxidant contents, antioxidant enzymes, antioxidant capacity, yield and
quality criteria of red cabbage plants. For this purpose, 2.0, 4.0 and 6.0 mg L−1 of Ti and V were
used to treat red cabbage plants. The control plants were treated with tap water. Our results showed
that plants treated with 4.0 mg L−1 of Ti recorded the highest values of plant growth and bioactive
compounds, while antioxidant capacity was decreased compared to the other treatments. In addition,
plants treated with Ti and V at 2.0 and 4.0 mg L−1, respectively, showed higher values of all of the
growth, yield, non-enzymatic antioxidants and antioxidants enzymes’ parameters compared to the
untreated plants. Based on the obtained results, it could be concluded that the low concentrations of
both Ti and V (2.0 and 4.0 mg L−1) were able to enhance red cabbage growth and yield, as well as the
antioxidant contents, enzymes and capacity.
