%X This study was carried out during 2008 and 2009 years at the Research and AgriculturalExperimental Station, King Saud University, Saudi Arabia, in order to study the comparative effect ofsome grapevine cultivars grown under arid environments and irrigated with treated domesticwastewater on leaf petiole mineral and fruit heavy metals content. The data indicated that theThompson Seedless, Perlette, Des El -Anz and White Shatta had similar and lower leaf N than all othercultivars. Flame seedless had lower P. Flame seedless, Perlette and Thompson seedless had similarand lower leaf K than all other cultivars. Flame seedless and Thompson Seedless had similar andlower Ca2 than all other cultivars. Thompson Seedless had higher leaf Mg than white Shatta, Perlette,Des El-Anz, Taify, Soltany and Red Glop cultivars. In addition, Taify had significantly higher Fe thanKing Ruby, Des El-Anz and Soltany cultivars. Flame Seedless had significantly higher Zn and Mn thanall other cultivars. The Des El-Anz, Taify, Kamaly, Soltany and White Shatta cultivars had similar andhigher fruit Cu than Thompson Seedless, Flame Seedless, Red Glop and King Ruby. Moreover, Des El-Anz had higher fruit Cd than all other cultivars, except Taify, Soltany and Halawany. Fruit NO3 ofFlame Seedless and Kamaly was similar and higher than all other cultivars, except Soltany and KingRuby. Kamaly, Flame Seedless and Soltany had similar and higher fruit NO2 than King Ruby, RedGlop, Perlette and Thompson Seedless.
