苹果砧木SH40 和八棱海棠缺铁胁迫下根系有机酸分泌的差异

 以苹果砧木SH₄₀和八棱海棠(Malus micromalus) 的生根试管苗为试材, 采用水培方法, 研究了缺铁胁迫对根系分泌有机酸的种类和数量的影响。结果表明: SH40和八棱海棠根系分泌有机酸种类相同,主要是草酸、丙二酸、酒石酸、苹果酸和柠檬酸, 但在分泌总量上差异明显, 八棱海棠分泌有机酸总量大于SH₄₀。缺铁胁迫时SH₄₀草酸分泌量和八棱海棠柠檬酸分泌量大量增加, 且八棱海棠干物质和铁含量明显高于SH₄₀。草酸和柠檬酸分泌量增加可能是SH₄₀和八棱海棠耐受缺铁胁迫的原因之一。     

水分对有机基质栽培番茄生长、生理特性和产量的影响

以番茄品种齐粉为试材,研究了基质相对含水量为(95±5)%、(80±5)%、(65±5)%和(50±5)%4个处理对有机基质栽培番茄生长、生理特性和产量的影响。结果表明,随着基质相对含水量的升高,有机基质栽培番茄的株高、茎粗、叶面积、节间长和产量均明显增加;番茄叶片的净光合速率、蒸腾速率、气孔导度都增大,而水分利用率下降。基质相对含水量为80%的处理与相对含水量为50%和65%的处理相比,番茄长势较好,蒸腾强度、光合强度和产量较高。基质相对含水量为95%的处理与80%的处理相比,产量未有显著增加,且植株有徒长现象,水分利用率低,水资源浪费严重。     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">Stenotrophomonas maltophilia</Emphasis>: a new potential biocontrol agent of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Ralstonia solanacearum</Emphasis>, causal agent of potato brown rot

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia was isolated from the rhizosphere of eggplant in the Nile Delta of Egypt, and its antagonistic potential against Ralstonia solanacearum race 3 biovar 2, the causal agent of potato brown rot, was in vitro evaluated on KB agar medium and in vivo on potato plants. In vitro, four isolates of S. maltophilia (PD3531, PD3532, PD3533, and PD3534) appeared antagonistic. The isolate (PD3533) was screened as the most promising antagonist for the in vivo tests. In the greenhouse, the antagonist was applied directly to soil or by bacterization of potato eyepieces. Stenotrophomonas maltophilia significantly suppressed potato brown rot in Egyptian clay soil but not in Dutch clay soil. Survival of a rifampicin and chloramphenicol-resistant S. maltophilia strain PD4560 was investigated in two pairs of clay soils, conventionally and organically managed, from Egypt and the Netherlands. The survival of S. maltophilia was significantly less in Dutch than in Egyptian soils, while the converse occurred for R. solanacearum. These results are in agreement with those obtained in the in vivo biocontrol tests. In conclusion, S. maltophilia may be useful for control of brown rot in the area where it was originally isolated, the Nile Delta in Egypt.     

Potato brown rot incidence and severity under different management and amendment regimes in different soil types

Ralstonia solanacearum race 3 biovar 2, the causative agent of potato brown rot (bacterial wilt), is an economically important disease in tropical, subtropical and temperate regions of the world. In view of previous reports on suppression of the disease by organic amendments, and the expansion of organic agriculture, it was timely to compare the effects of organic and conventional management and various amendments on brown rot development in different soils (type: sand or clay; origin: Egypt or the Netherlands). Brown rot infection was only slightly reduced in organically compared to conventionally managed sandy soils from Egypt, but organic management significantly increased disease incidence and pathogen survival in Dutch sandy and clay soils, which correlated with high DOC contents in the organic Dutch soils. There was no correlation between disease incidence or severity and bacterial diversity in the potato rhizosphere in differently managed soils (as determined by 16S DGGE). NPK fertilization reduced bacterial wilt in conventional Egyptian soils but not in Dutch soils. Cow manure amendment significantly reduced disease incidence in organic Dutch sandy soils, but did not affect the bacterial population. However, cow manure did reduce densities of R. solanacearum in Egyptian sandy soils, most probably by microbial competition as a clear shift in populations was detected with DGGE in these and Dutch sandy soils after manure amendment. Amendment with compost did not have a suppressive effect in any soil type. The absence of a disease suppressive effect of mineral and organic fertilization in Dutch clay soils may be related to the already high availability of inorganic and organic nutrients in these soils. This study shows that the mechanism of disease suppression of soil-borne plant pathogens may vary strongly according to the soil type, especially if quite different types of soil are used.     

基于Fuzzy-Smith控制器的营养液pH值调控系统研究

pH值的控制是水肥一体化营养液循环控制系统的重要环节，水肥控制过程中pH值在最优控制范围内有利于根系的发育以及多数矿物质的吸收。营养液调控过程中，由于循环管路以及酸液的缓慢扩散，使得pH值调节过程存在很大的时滞，传统PID难以取得良好效果。本研究根据被控对象特点，建立了描述该过程的数学模型，设计开发了一套具有二次混肥特性的以MSP430单片机为主控的营养液pH值控制系统。由于参数自整定模糊PID不需要精确数学模型以及Smith预估可对纯滞后进行补偿的特点，开发的系统将参数自整定模糊PID控制引入Smith预估当中，既缓解了滞后时间对控制系统的影响，又对模型的不精确性进行了补偿。为了验证该算法以及系统的有效性和优越性，分别对PID、Fuzzy-Smith控制算法进行仿真测试，同时在不同灌溉量下进行性能试验。试验结果表明，在不同灌溉量下Fuzzy-Smith控制算法pH值的平均最大超调量为0.83%，营养液pH值从8.0调节为6.0的平均时间为157s，优于常规PID控制的2.55%和189s。     

Effects of fruit bagging on coloring and related physiology,and qualities of red Chinese sand pears during fruit maturation

Red Chinese sand pears (Pyrus pyrifolia Nakai) are particular to China. In order to determine the effects of fruit bagging treatments (including bag types, bag removal patterns and dates) on fruit qualities and to understand the mechanism of coloring of red Chinese sand pears, two experiments were carried out. In the first experiment, fruit of ‘Meirensu’ were firstly covered by light-impermeable paper bags with different levels of light permeable liners during their early development stage, then, the whole bag were/not removed or only the outer layer of bags were removed 3, 2 or 1 weeks before harvest. Thus, the fruit were/not totally re-exposed or were under different levels of sunlight transmission (80.31% or 34.71%). Non-bagged fruit were used as the control. Bagging treatments significantly affected the concentration of anthocyanin and the visual qualities of pear fruit. Compared to control, fruit re-exposed totally for 2 or 3 weeks accumulated the largest amount of anthocyanin and fruit receiving 80.31% and 34.71% of sunlight for 1–3 weeks could synthesize a little anthocyanin, indicating that high light intensity is imperative for coloring in red Chinese sand pears. Bagging treatments did not affect contents of total soluble sugars, but decreased organic acids contents in fruit. In the second experiment, fruit of ‘Meirensu’ and ‘Yunhongli No. 1’ were covered with only one type of light-impermeable bag during the early development stage and totally re-exposed after the bag removal 15 days before harvest. Fruit were then collected at different intervals to trace the time-course of coloring, and related physiology and inner qualities. With increasing time after the bag removal, the concentration of chlorophyll, carotenoid, flavonoid and total phenols changed little, but the concentration of anthocyanin accumulated extremely fast within 10 days after the bag removal in both cultivars and thereafter kept constant. ‘Yunhongli No. 1’ had higher anthocyanin contents and lower hue angle than ‘Meirensu’, indicating a higher potential of anthocyanin synthesis. After the bag removal, the sucrose contents and PAL activities increased gradually and correlation analysis revealed that they were highly correlated with anthocyanin accumulation in two cultivars. This study suggests that anthocyanin biosynthesis in red Chinese sand pears is a highly light dependent process and modified by genotypes. Based on the current results, in order to obtain red Chinese sand pear fruit with attractive appearance and good inner qualities, fruit must be covered with light-impermeable bags at the early stage of fruit development and the bag should be removed totally at least 10 days before harvest.     

Soil physical fertility, soil structure and rooting conditions after ploughing organically managed grass/clover swards

Effective management of soil structure and organic matter are essential in organic cropping to ensure good rooting conditions and to optimize the production of mineralized N and thus minimize greenhouse gas emissions. We investigated how mid‐winter or early spring ploughing and three grazing duration treatments prior to ploughing influenced soil structure, soil organic matter and plant root growth under the first spring barley crop after a grass–clover ley. The experiment was carried out over two seasons. We also studied the soil under first‐year oats in a long‐term rotations experiment where 2 or 3 years of arable crops followed 3 or 4 years of grass. Pore size distribution and pore continuity, bulk density, particulate (light fraction) organic matter, readily oxidizable organic matter (ROM), aggregate size distribution and root length densities were measured. Macroporosity appeared to be the best indicator of soil physical fertility; it was sensitive to changes in soil structure arising from compaction and root growth. This, along with visual examination, revealed the loosening resulting from ploughing. The generally favourable macroporosity amongst small, stable aggregates reduced the likelihood of development of anaerobism. Macroporosity and aggregate size can be estimated from visual examination of the soil, a method that offers the advantage of being quick and of sampling a large volume. The content of ROM was high 6.1–6.4 g 100 g^?1 whole soil. However, particulates formed only a small fraction (6–9%) of the ROM. Despite the favourable ROM and structure, the soil was susceptible to compaction damage during seedbed preparation in wet soil after ploughing which reduced grain yield in some plots. Grazing by sheep before ploughing and date of ploughing had minor effects on soil quality. Grazing for 2 months prior to ploughing increased root length density in the upper topsoil in the following arable crop, possibly because of the higher quality of the animal and grass–clover residues. Conservation of soil quality was related more to secondary tillage and sowing operations after ploughing than to duration and timing of grazing.

Influence of Extreme Management on Decomposable Soil Organic Matter Pool

Basing on two long-term model experiments (microplots as well as greenhouse pot experiment) the influence of extreme management on a very easily decomposable pool of soil organic matter (SOM) was measured. The carbon content (C hwe ) of a hot water extractable pool of SOM was used as an indicator for the decomposable C pool. This parameter reflects both the dynamics of the amount of decomposable organic C pool and the different transformation conditions in case of the pot experiment (outside versus inside the greenhouse). Depending on soil type and both the total and decomposable organic matter level at the starting point of the experiments we can observe differences in the decreasing speed of the decomposable C pool: in the soils having a high level of SOM at starting point C hwe pool decreases more rapidly compared to the soils unfertilized or in case of the only P and K treatment of the Static Fertilization Experiment at the beginning of the pot experiment. At least we can observe a difference in decreasing intensity of this C hwe pool when comparing different soil types.
