Abstract A short-term pot experiment was made to evaluate the effectiveness of municipal solid waste compost amendment on salt-affected soil. Hordeum maritimum plants were cultivated in pots filled with a clay-loam soil containing 0 or 40 t ha?1 of compost and irrigated with tap water at 0 or 4 g l?1 NaCl. Soil properties and heavy metal (Zn2 +, Pb2 +, Cd2 +) accumulation were investigated. Municipal solid waste compost application significantly increased the soil contents of carbon, nitrogen and potassium under both non-saline and saline conditions. Soil heavy metal concentrations increased substantially too, but the recorded values were below the toxicity limits. Interestingly, plants subjected to the salt–compost interaction were more vigorous, compared with those grown on non-amended soil. Altogether, our data indicate that short-term utilization of municipal solid waste compost at 40 t ha?1 may be of potential interest in the perspective of the rehabilitation of salt-affected soils. Yet, it must be stressed that the present findings are preliminary and need to be further evaluated under field conditions before practical recommendations can be inferred. 相似文献

ABSTRACT Pyrenophora tritici-repentis causes necrosis and chlorosis in its wheat host. Susceptibility to races 2 (necrosis) and 5 (chlorosis) of the pathogen is known to be mediated by Ptr ToxA and Ptr ToxB, respectively. Sensitivity to each toxin is controlled by a single dominant and independently inherited gene. We used sensitivity to Ptr ToxA and Ptr ToxB as two genetic markers to investigate the origin and the state of tan spot susceptibility in Canadian Western Red Spring (CWRS) wheat over a period of more than a century. Sensitivity to Ptr ToxA, the toxin produced by nearly all isolates of the pathogen collected in the past 20 years in western Canada, appears to have been present in the first major cultivar, Red Fife, grown massively in the late 1800s. Sensitivity then was transmitted unknowingly into Canadian wheat lines through extensive use of backcrossing to maintain the Marquis-Thatcher breadmaking quality. Sensitivity to Ptr ToxA, which nearly disappeared from cultivars grown in western Canada in the 1950s, was reintroduced in the 1960s and unintentionally bred into many of the present-day cultivars. Sensitivity to Ptr ToxB, a toxin rarely found in isolates from western Canada, appeared with the release of Thatcher in 1934 and was transferred to many cultivars through backcross programs. In spite of large areas planted to Ptr ToxAand Ptr ToxB-sensitive cultivars over decades, tan spot epidemics remained sporadic until the 1970s. The results of this study raise the problem of the narrowing genetic base of CWRS wheat lines and the potential for unanticipated threats from plant pathogens. The intercrossing of genetically diverse material in one Canadian wheat breeding program resulted in the release of several modern cultivars with resistance to tan spot. The absence of wild-type Ptr ToxB-producing isolates in western Canada remains unexplained, given that sensitivity to Ptr ToxB was present continuously in western Canadian cultivars grown on vast areas for more than 70 years. 相似文献

Fitness of sugary1 (su1) is affected by some critical traits that depend on the genotypes and environments, while their effects have not been quantified with convincing statistical methods. The objective of this work was to identify and quantify the critical factors of su1 fitness with different genotypes and environments. We used two pairs of field corn inbreds that differentially affected su1 viability to develop F1, F2, BC1 and BC2. After selfing, Su1 and su1 kernels were evaluated under controlled environmental conditions and in field trials. Multiple regressions showed that dry weight of juvenile plant was affected by early vigour (plant size, colour and health) and emergence in cold conditions; ear weight by plant appearance, number of plants and chlorophyll content; number of ears by plant appearance, number of plants, chlorophyll content and female flowering; and kernel weight by ear weight, number of plants, row number and ear length. The main critical factors for su1 fitness were early vigour and emergence under cold conditions at initial stages, while several adult traits were related with final fitness. 相似文献

Verticillium dahliae Kleb. is a soilborne fungal pathogen of many crops. In potato, it is the major causal agent of Early Dying. In Manitoba, potato fields planted with cv. Russet Burbank are infested with highly pathogenic V. dahliae isolates, which can produce up to 90 % disease severity. The objective of the study was to evaluate selected compost, green manure, and seed-meal treatments, in comparison with the soil fumigant Vapam, for their ability to reduce propagule density of V. dahliae in soil and decrease disease, and to enhance potato yield. Select green manure crops (oriental and white mustard, Canada milk vetch, sorghum-sudangrass, rye, alfalfa, oat/pea mixture), organic amendments (composted cattle manure and mustard seed-meal), and Vapam, and crop sequences that contribute to the suppression of Verticillium, or the improvement of potato yield were used in a 3-year field study initiated in 2006. Survival in soil of microsclerotia was evaluated as a measure of treatments’ success in potentially reducing Early Dying. Compost and seed-meal treatments, compared to an untreated control, reduced incidence to 30 and 40 %, respectively, but only seed-meal reduced V. dahliae propagule density. Overall, green manures over 1 or 2-years were ineffective in reducing propagule density or improving potato yield. Vapam was partially effective in reducing the propagule density only at the beginning of the potato season, but it did not reduce disease incidence compared to the control. Compost and seed-meal are promising as alternative control of V. dahliae. Only compost reduced disease and increased potato yield, which was associated with improved nutrient availability (phosphorus and sulfate) in soil. 相似文献

The interactive effects of salinity and potassium (K+) availability on biomass production, water status, and ionic composition were investigated in Hordeum maritimum, an annual grass growing natively on saline soils. Plants were grown for 7 weeks on Hewitt nutrient solution supplied with NaCl (0, 100, 150, 200, and 300 mM) combined with low (0.232 mM) or high (5.8 mM) K+ levels. Independent of potassium availability, dry matter of both roots and shoots decreased consistently with increasing NaCl levels in the culture medium, in association with a significant reduction of the shoot water content. This salt‐induced growth reduction did not result from a restriction of K+ nutrition, since H. maritimum expressed similar growth under both low and high K+ supply. NaCl decreased shoot K+ concentrations. This effect was more pronounced in plants grown at high K+ supply than in plants grown at low K+ supply. This result suggests that the absorption systems were strongly selective for K+, and that this selectivity was enhanced by salt. 相似文献

Understanding the role of organic acids on phosphorus (P) sorption capacity of soils is very important for its economic and friendly management. Combining P application with low-molecular weight organic acids could result in its higher plant availability for prolonged time. Therefore, citric and oxalic acid (at the rate of 1.0 mM kg?1 soil) were evaluated for their effect on P sorption capacity and its plant availability in two different textured calcareous soils. Organic acids decreased P sorption capacity and organic carbon partition coefficient (Koc) whereas increased Gibbs free energy (ΔG) of P. Organic-acid-treated soils required lesser quantity of P fertilizer to produce soil solution P concentration optimum for plant growth (external P requirement [EPR0.2]), that is, 0.2 mg L?1. Citric acid was efficient than oxalic acid in the above effects. P sorption parameters of Freundlich model were negatively correlated with lime potential and ΔG whereas had positive correlation (P < 0.05) with EPR0.2 and Koc. Incubation with oxalic acid increased available P in loamy sand and loam soil by 20% and 30%, respectively. Thus, organic acids could help reduce application rate of P fertilizer through lowering its adsorption in highly P-fixing soils without compromise on yield. 相似文献

Crop response to the phosphorus (P) application is often erratic in most soil types in the world. In Algeria, there is no information on the P behavior in calcareous soils. The purposes of this work were to investigate the degree of P fixing capacity and to predict P fertilizer requirements of crops according to calcareous levels in the soil. Soil samples (at 0–30 cm depth) were collected and spiked with 0, 25 and 50% of lime (CaCO3). Phosphate sorption curves were well fitted to the Freundlich equation. Results indicated that the calcareous level was predominantly controlled the P sorption indices [sorption capacity (a), and P sorption energy (n)] to affect the estimation of external d P requirement (EPR0.2) and P fertilizer rates. The understanding of P sorption and desorption by soils and extrapolating the developed relationship between soil calcareous contents and P fertilizer rates would be quite promising and accurate approach for the economic and effective use of P fertilizers in calcareous soils of Algeria. 相似文献

Blackleg (phoma stem canker), caused by Leptosphaeria spp., is an important disease of canola (oilseed rape, Brassica napus). Control strategies rely on the use of resistant cultivars, chemical and disease-reducing cropping practices. In Canada,
the pathogen population is represented by L. maculans and L. biglobosa, which are considered to be highly and weakly aggressive, respectively. It is largely admitted that L. biglobosa isolates are not able to cause a significant amount of stem canker and develop on the plant only when it becomes senescent,
late in the season. The prevalence of L. maculans over L. biglobosa has been considered to be linked to the low aggressiveness of the latter. However, in this study, we show that L. biglobosa isolates could become highly aggressive in terms of lesion appearance on cotyledons, if the right conditions of temperature
and relative humidity (RH) are provided. Percent germination of inoculated pycnidiospores was not affected by the RH regimes
tested. This is the first study to show the importance of RH as a factor conditioning the pathogenicity of L. biglobosa isolates on canola cotyledons. Concurrent changes in the host defence mechanisms against L. biglobosa isolates in response to variations in the RH were also investigated. Under high RH, the increase in disease caused by the
weakly aggressive isolates coincided with a reduced accumulation of lignin at the early stages of infection. 相似文献

Knowledge of genetic control of mutant viability is of great importance in maize breeding, particularly for mutants with deleterious effects. Little is known about the genetics of the viability of mutants and no previous report has been published concerning the genetic effects of the mutant sugary1 on agronomic traits. Our objective was to study the effects of the sweetcorn mutant sugary1 (su1) on the genetic effects of agronomic traits in two wild type corn backgrounds. Estimated genetic effects of agronomic traits in Su1 versus su1 plants were monitored through four successive selfpollination cycles in two separated mean generation designs. The first involved two Corn Belt inbred lines A619 and A632, while unrelated inbred lines EP42 and A631 were used for the second design. Parents, F1s, F2s, and backcrosses were crossed to the su1 inbred P39 as the donor of su1 and the 12 crosses were successively selfpollinated for 4 years. For each cross, Su1 and su1 seeds were separated and evaluated in 10 × 10 triple lattice designs. The Su1 plants showed higher performance than the su1 plants in almost all traits. The estimates of genetic effects of Su1 versus su1 plants were strongly affected by the su1 × wild type corn interactions. The introgression of su1 in wild type corn strongly affects the genetic effects of flowering time and, to a lesser stent, that of other plant or ear traits. Mutant viability is regulated by additive, dominance and digenic epistatic effects and the importance of those genetic effects depends on the genetic background and environmental conditions. 相似文献
