In: Egyptian Journal of Agricultural Research 2015.v.93(3),SISummary: Two field experiments were carried out during the fall seasons of 2010/2011 and 2011/2012 at the Agriculture Research Farm, El-Kassasien Hort. Res. Station, Ismalia Governorate, Egypt, and storage Lab., Hort. Dept., Fac. of Agric., Zagazig University, to study the effect of pre-harvest foliar spray with two calcium sources (calcium chloride, calcium citrate) in comparison with adenosine triphosphate (ATP) on growth, yield and its quality of snap bean plants (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) c.v Paulista. It aimed also to study the effect of the abovementioned treatments on snap bean pods storability during cold storage at different periods, i.e., 7, 14,21 and 28 days. Significant increases in vegetative growth characters, yield and it's components as well as chemical constituents of pods (phosphorus and protein %) were recorded by foliar application of adenosine triphosphate at 150ppm followed by calcium chloride at 1% and calcium citrate at 0.1% compared to untreated plants. Key words: calcium chloride, calcium citrate, adenosine triphosphate, snap bean, yield, chemical constituents, storage period.
