A pot experiment was conducted in the green house of the National Research Centre (seasons 2008/2009 and 2009/2010) to study the effect of foliar application of stigmasterol (0, 50, 100 mg/L) and/or diphenylurea (0, 5, 10 mg/L) on vegetative growth, flowering, fruiting and chemical constituents of Matthiola incana plants. Data indicate that most criteria of vegetative growth expressed as plant height, number of branches, fresh and dry weights of the herb were significantly affected by the application of the two growth regulators. Foliar application of 5 mg/L diphenylurea combined with 100 mg/L stigmasterol gave the tallest Matthiola incana plants, while the highest increases in number of branches, number of pods, weight of pods, air dry weight of plant and seed yield at fruiting stage were found in plants treated with 10 mg/L diphenylurea combined with 100 mg/L stigmasterol. In comparison between stigmasterol and diphenylurea treatments the mean values of all growth characters during the vegetative and flowering stages reveal the superiority of stigmasterol especially at higher concentration (100 mg/L) used. The highest increases in fixed oil yield were found in plants treated with 5 mg /L diphenylurea combined with 100 mg/L stigmasterol. Photosynthetic pigments, N%, protein%, fixed oil % and oil yield were influenced by treating the plants with stigmasterol and diphenylurea. GLC analysis of the seed oil indicated that the application of 10 mg/L diphenylurea and 50 mg/L stigmasterol only increases γ - linolenic acid compared with control plants.
