Quantifying the Impact Factors of Different Forms of Potassium and Absorptions by Different Cotton Genotypes

This study focuses on two genotypes of cotton and explores different factors that were able to affect the release of different forms of potassium (K) in the rhizosphere by considering a biogeochemical process integrating plants, soils, and microorganisms. The study indicated that both genotypes of cotton could effectively absorb exchangeable potassium (eK) under limited potassium (LK) supply, and cotton plants could use LK to sustain offspring, preferably under K-deficiency conditions. It was mainly due to its significantly greater active absorbing surface area of root and comparatively greater K⁺ maximum uptake rate (I_max), which caused more K accumulation in the high-efficiency genotype cotton (HEG). Although I_max of the low-efficiency genotype cotton’s (LEG’s) was greater, K accumulation in LEG was less, which might be attributed to its significantly lower HEG and feedback inhibition on K taken up by greater K concentration in the plant. The lint yield had a significant positive correlation with boll number per plant, single boll weight, plant height, and number of fruit branches, which indicated that increasing these agronomic parameters is the base for increasing lint yield. There was a synergic action among humus, microorganisms, and K in the rhizosphere soil. The cation exchange capacity (CEC) of reduced soils was less under oxidized condition, due to collapse of the interlayer in response to increased layer charge upon structural Fe reduction. Crop yields can be increased when fertilizer K is applied according to proper ratio among different forms of potassium and humic acid in soils. The middle-high plant height, lower initial fruit branch, more fruit branches, more bolls, and larger boll size should receive more attention during high-yielding cotton breeding.     

Effect of rate and source of nitrogen fertilizers on mineral composition of d'Anjou pears

Abstract

Thirteen‐year‐old ‘d'Anjou’ pear trees, Pyrus communis L., were fertilized with 3 rates of ammonium nitrate or 2 rates of calcium nitrate in late autumn from 1978 to 1980. In 1981, mid‐terminal and fruiting‐spur leaves and fruit peel and flesh were sampled for mineral analysis of N, P, K, Ca, Mg, B, Cu, Fe, Mn, and Zn. The level of N increased in the above tissues as rate of N fertilizer was increased. In most cases, the levels of N, P, K, Mg, Cu, and Mn in the fruiting spur leaves and fruit were greater in the ammonium nitrate‐treated trees than with calcium nitrate fertilizer. Calcium was higher in the fruit peel and flesh of trees treated with the low rate of calcium nitrate than with the highest rate of ammonium nitrate fertilizer while Ca in the fruiting spur leaves was lower in the calcium nitrate‐fertilized trees.

在大田条件下,采用随机区组设计,研究了中期(7月28日)补施75.kg/hm2钾肥对去叶枝常规密度群体和留叶枝稀植大棵群体后期棉花叶片光合特性和产量品质的影响。结果表明,两种不同类型棉花群体中期补施钾肥,均能延缓叶片衰老,保持生育后期有较高的叶面积,并能显著提高棉花生育后期主茎叶片叶绿素含量、光合效率、PSⅡ潜在光化学活性FV/FO、实际光化学效率ФPSⅡ和气孔导度Cs;显著降低非光化学猝灭系数(NPQ),从而提高了后期群体和叶片对光能的利用;有效地增加了总铃数和铃重,使子棉产量提高8.9%～9.3%,纤维比强度增强。     

Effect of Fruiting Branch/Square Removal on Growth and Quality of Bt Cotton under Different Potassium Rates

Removal of early fruiting branches with greater potassium doses caused more source and no sink at early stages of growth, leading to improved yield, yield components, and fiber quality traits in Bt cotton. The study used manual alteration of plant architecture (F₁, no branch removal; F₂, removal of first fruiting branch; F₃, removal of first and second fruiting branches; F₄, removal of all squares from first fruiting branch; F₅, removal of all squares from first and second fruiting branches) and potassium rates (50, 100, and 150 kg ha^?1) in a randomized complete block design and was repeated for 2 years (2011 and 2012). Increasing potassium application increased total bolls per plant and cotton yield to the greatest levels in F₃ and F₅, against lowest level in the control. Ginning out turn, fiber length, seed oil, and seed protein content were influenced by fruiting branch or square removal but the difference was less. Increasing potassium improved seed and fiber quality.     

番茄果实品质和叶片保护酶对水肥水平的响应

通过3个土壤相对含水量（W1,50%～60%; W2,7～0%80%; W3,90%～100%）和3个施肥水平（F1,N 0.187 g/kg+ P2O5 0.131 g/kg; F2,N 0.267g/kg+ P2O5 0.187 g/kg; F3,N 0.347 g/kg+ P2O5 0.243 g/kg）共9个处理的盆栽试验,研究了番茄结果期果实品质、叶片保护酶及叶绿素含量的变化规律,旨在为番茄结果期合理的水肥管理提供理论依据。结果表明: 在整个结果期,W1F2处理有利于提高果实品质; W2F2处理下果实中的渗透物质（游离氨基酸）保持着较高水平,且叶片保护酶活性较高,丙二醛含量低; W2F3处理的叶片叶绿素含量保持较高水平,W2F2处理番茄果实单株产量高。相关分析表明: 果实品质与超氧化物歧化酶、叶绿素含量呈正相关,而与丙二醛含量呈负相关; 游离氨基酸含量与过氧化物酶活性、脯氨酸含量呈显著正相关,而与丙二醛含量呈显著负相关。综合分析,番茄结果期较优的水肥组合为N 0.267g/kg+P2O5 0.187g/kg和70%80%的土壤相对含水量。     

Influence of Potassium Rates and Sources on Seed Cotton Yield and Yield Components of Some Elite Cotton Cultivars

Abstract

A field experiment was conducted at Central Cotton Research Institute, Multan, Pakistan on Miani soil series, silt loam soil (Calcaric, Cambisols and fine silty, mixed Hyperthermic Fluventic Haplocambids) to assess the response of four cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) cultivars to potassium (K) fertilization. The treatments consisted of four cotton cultivars (CIM-448, CIM-1100, NIAB-Karishma, S-12), four potassium rates (0, 62.5, 125, 250 kg K ha^?1), and two sources of potassium fertilizer [muriate of potash (KCl) and sulphate of potash (K₂SO₄)]. The cotton cultivars differed significantly in response to various potassium fertilizer levels and its sources with respect to seed cotton yield and its components. The highest yield was obtained with the application of 250-kg K ha^?1, however, it was economical to add 125 kg K ha^?1. Seed cotton yield of cv. CIM-448 was considerably greater than that of the other cultivars in K-unfertilized treatments, which was related to cultivar differences in K uptake efficiency in utilizing native potassium nutrient. Potassium added as muriate of potash caused a significant depression in seed cotton yield than that of sulphate of potash. The increase in yield seemed to have resulted largely from the higher K concentration of leaf tissues at bloom stage and available soil-K because of potassium application. A significant relationship between the yield and number of bolls per plant (r = 0.92**) and boll weight (r = 0.85**) indicated that these two growth attributes were responsible for enhancing the quantum of final harvest of seed cotton.     

Starter fertilizer and the method and rate of potassium fertilizer effects on cotton grown on soils with and without winter grazing by cattle

Abstract

A three‐year field study was conducted on a Decatur silt loam (clayey, kaolinitic, thermic Rhodic Paleudult) in North Alabama. The objective of the study was to evaluate the effects of winter grazing by cattle on the potassium (K) and starter fertilizer needs of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) the following season. Grazed and non‐grazed treatments were established by planting a wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cover crop in the fall and allowing cattle to graze half of the treatment area for 35 to 65 days in late winter‐early spring. After grazing, the grazed and non‐grazed wheat was killed and cotton was planted using a strip‐tillage system. Test areas had medium to high soil test ratings for K. Fertility treatments consisted of three rates of K (0, 37, and 74 kg K ha^‐1), three methods of K application (surface broadcast; in‐row, band application at a depth of 30.5 cm; and surface banding using a spacing of 50.8 cm) and two rates of starter fertilizer (no starter and 168 kg#lbha^‐l of a liquid 15–15–0). Seed cotton yields were affected by grazing of the winter cover crop prior to planting, but not by the method of K fertilizer application. During the two years that a yield reduction was observed, winter grazing reduced seed cotton yields by an average of 14%. Cotton responded to K rate only under the ungrazed system. During the first and second year of the test, an application of 37 kg K ha^‐1 increased seed cotton yields by an average of 351 kg#lbha^‐1. Starter fertilizer consistently gave slightly higher yields with a significant response occurring in two out of the three years.     

不同液体有机肥对新疆棉花生长及土壤养分的影响

为研究不同液体有机肥对新疆棉花生长及土壤养分的影响，进而确定滴灌棉田最适宜的液体有机肥类型，为优化新疆滴灌棉花施肥技术提供理论依据，采用盆栽试验，设置5个处理包括不施肥（CK）、常规施肥（化肥，CF）、含氨基酸液体有机肥（AF）、含腐殖酸液体有机肥（HF）、酸性有机肥浸提液（BF），考察了不同施肥处理对棉花生长、叶片光合能力、产量构成、土壤养分以及养分利用率的影响。结果表明：与CF处理相比，不同液体有机肥均能促进棉花生长，提高土壤有效养分含量。其中，AF处理较CF处理显著提高了棉花叶片气孔导度（G_s），增加7.18%；与CF处理相比，HF处理对棉花株高、茎粗、叶片蒸腾速率（T_r）、总根表面积的促进作用最显著，分别增加了6.38%、3.92%、11.01%和14.52%~11.84%，棉花茎和地下部干物质量最高；BF处理棉花总根长显著提高41.21%~49.48%，同时叶片净光合速率（P_n）最强，棉花单株成铃数、衣分最高，棉花蕾铃、籽棉和整株干物质量显著提高了27.91%、11.83%和9.76%。对于土壤理化性质，AF、HF和BF处理较CF处理均显著提高了土壤有效磷含量；BF处理显著降低了土壤pH，且土壤有机质、碱解氮和速效钾含量均高于其他处理。BF处理棉花肥料偏生产力、肥料农学效率和肥料贡献率较CF处理提高了5.83%~19.33%，显著高于其他处理。总之，3种液体有机肥均能促进棉花生长，增加棉花干物质积累，提高土壤有效养分含量以及肥料利用率，其中以酸性有机肥浸提液效果最佳。因此，在滴灌棉田应用酸性有机肥浸提液可以获得更高的棉花产量及肥料利用率，有利于新疆滴灌棉田可持续发展。     

不同铃重基因型棉花盛花期14C-同化物在“铃-叶系统”中的分配特征

以大铃、中铃和小铃3个不同铃重棉花基因型为材料,通过在盛花期测定棉株中部主茎和果枝叶面积及叶面积指数,并用¹⁴CO₂饲喂中部主茎叶,研究了¹⁴CO₂同化物在棉株不同层次"铃-叶系统"中的分配特征。结果表明,盛花期中部主茎和果枝单叶面积与铃重呈正相关。小铃基因型棉花群体盛花期叶面积指数最大;大铃基因型棉花蕾铃比中、小铃基因型表现出更强的库活性。主茎叶片产生的同化物除主要输送到对应的果枝外,还向上部、下部的库器官及主茎生长点输送;而流向其对应果枝的同化物,主要供应第一果节蕾铃。     

Assessment of economic and environmental impacts of two typical cotton genotypes with contrasting potassium efficiency

It is essential to produce optimal crop yields while reducing adverse environmental impacts of overfertilization. Therefore, nutrient‐efficient plants may play a major role in improving the efficiency of fertilizer use whilst increasing crop yields. This field trial was conducted to study the differences on absorption and utilization of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) of K‐efficient cotton genotype 103 and K‐inefficient cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) genotype 122 and their environmental and economic effects. The results show that seed cotton yield was significantly different between K‐efficient cotton genotype 103 and K‐inefficient cotton genotype 122; the yields of genotype 103 were 39.2%, 33.8%, and 25.0% higher than those of genotype 122 with no K fertilizer (K0), 112 kg K ha^–1 K (K1), and 224 kg K ha^–1 (K2), respectively. Even when no K fertilizer was applied, the yield of genotype 103 was still 7.9% higher than the yield of genotype 122 at the highest K level (K2). Further economic benefit analysis revealed that the value cost ratio (VCR) of genotype 103 was significantly higher than 122 at K0 and K1, and harvest index (HI) of genotype 103 was significantly higher than that of genotype 122 at all three K levels. In addition, when fertilized with K, partial factor productivity of applied K (PFP_K) of genotype 103 was dramatically higher than that of genotype 122, demonstrating that genotype 103 had stronger ability to utilize K. Besides, the N‐ and P‐use efficiencies of genotype 103 were also higher than those of genotype 122. It is concluded that: (1) genotype 103 gives better profit than genotype 122 and (2) genotype 103 uses fertilizer more efficiently and reduced fertilizer inputs will alleviate environmental risks.     

Cotton Growth and Physiological Responses to Boron Deficiency

Abstract

Boron (B) deficiency is common in some cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) growing regions of the world. A better understanding of changes in the growth and physiological characteristics of cotton plants during the development of B deficiency will help us to define field diagnosis techniques and improve B fertilizer management recommendation. An experiment was conducted in a controlled‐environment growth chamber to determine effects of B deficiency during early vegetative growth on leaf photosynthesis, plant dry matter accumulation, photosynthetic assimilate partitioning, and other physiological parameters. Boron deficiency considerably decreased leaf net photosynthetic rate, plant height, leaf area, fruiting sites, and dry matter accumulation during squaring and fruiting. Depressed photosynthesis and plant growth (especially fruits and roots) resulted in increased fruit abscission and changes in dry matter partitioning among plant tissues. The results help explain effects of B deficiency on suppression of cotton growth and yield and provide information for improving the diagnosis of B deficiency in cotton production.     

Long‐Term Integrated Nutrient Management for Rice‐Based Cropping Pattern: Effect on Growth,Yield, Nutrient Uptake,Nutrient Balance Sheet,and Soil Fertility

Abstract

A 7‐year‐long field trial was conducted on integrated nutrient management for a dry season rice (Boro)–green manure (GM)–wet season rice (T. Aman) cropping system at the Bangladesh Rice Research Institute Farm, Gazipur during 1993–1999. Five packages of inorganic fertilizers, cow dung (CD), and GM dhaincha (Sesbania aculeata) were evaluated for immediate and residual effect on crop productivity, nutrient uptake, soil‐nutrient balance sheet, and soil‐fertility status. Plant height, active tiller production, and grain and straw yields were significantly increased as a result of the application of inorganic fertilizer and organic manure. Usually, the soil‐test‐based (STB) fertilizer doses for a high‐yield goal produced the highest grain yield of 6.39 t ha^?1 (average of 7 years) in Boro rice. Application of CD at the rate of 5 t ha^?1 (oven‐dry basis) once a year at the time of Boro transplanting supplemented 50% of the fertilizer nutrients other than nitrogen (N) in the subsequent crop of the cropping pattern. A positive effect of GM on the yield of T. Aman rice was observed. Following GM, the application of reduced doses of phosphorus (P), potassium (K), sulfur (S), and zinc (Zn) to the second crop (T. Aman) did not reduce yield, indicating the beneficial residual effect of fertilizer applied to the first crop (Boro rice) of the cropping pattern. The comparable yield of T. Aman was also observed with reduced fertilizer dose in CD‐treated plots. The total P, K, and S uptake (kg/ha/yr) in the unfertilized plot under an irrigated rice system gradually decreased over the years. The partial nutrient balance in the unfertilized plot (T₁) was negative for all the nutrients. In the fertilized plots, there was an apparent positive balance of P, S, and Zn but a negative balance of N and K. This study showed that the addition of organic manure (CD, dhaincha) gave more positive balances. In the T_4c treatment at 0–15 cm, the application of chemical fertilizers along with the organic manures increased soil organic carbon by (C) 0.71%. The highest concentration of total N was observed with T_4c followed by T_4d and T_4b, where CD was applied in Boro season and dhaincha GM was incorporated in T. Aman season. The sixfold increase in soil‐available P in T_4b‐, T_4c‐, T_4a‐treated plots was due to the addition of CD. Dhaincha GM with the combination of chemical fertilizer helps to mobilize soil‐available P by 3 to 6 ppm. The highest amount of soil‐available S was found in T_4c‐ and T_4a‐treated plots. It was 2.5 times higher than that of the initial soil. The application of CD and dhaincha GM along with chemical fertilizers not only increased organic C, total N, available P, and available S but also increased exchangeable K, available Zn, available iron (Fe), and available manganese (Mn) in soil.     

POTATO TUBER YIELD AND QUALITY AS AFFECTED BY RATES AND SOURCES OF POTASSIUM FERTILIZER

Among the major nutrients, potassium (K) not only improves yields but also improves quality parameters. Field experiments were conducted to assess the comparative effect of sources and rates of K fertilizer on potato yield and quality on a sandy loam soil. Graded doses of potassium, i.e., 0, 150 and 225 kg ha^?1 K₂O from sulfate and muriate of potash were applied in triplicate. Recommended dose of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) applied uniformly. Significant increase in tuber yield was observed with 150 kg ha^?1 K₂O from both the sources over control. Increase in tuber yield with 225 kg ha^?1 K₂O was statistically non significant compared to 150 kg ha^?1. The dry matter and specific gravity were more affected with sulfate of potash (SOP) than muriate of potash (MOP). The quality parameters like dry matter, specific gravity, starch contents, vitamin C, chips color and taste were improved with K application.     

Response of tomato to polyhalite as a multi-nutrient fertilizer in southeast Brazil

Abstract

Limited information on the agronomic performance of polyhalite (K₂SO₄.MgSO₄.2CaSO₄.2H₂O) motivated us to establish two field trials in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The objective was to evaluate the comparative responses of tomato to muriate of potash (MOP), sulfate of potash, potassium magnesium sulfate, and polyhalite at different graded doses of potassium (K) application supplying varied amount of secondary nutrients. Under very low soil K conditions, polyhalite resulted in significantly higher marketable fruit yield, and higher foliar and fruit K and sulfur (S) concentrations than other K sources. This was not the case under medium soil K levels, that is, 101?mg?kg^?1. Likewise, polyhalite enhanced postharvest residual soil calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and S than other evaluated sources. Depending on soil nutrient status and the cost of polyhalite, tomato farmers of Brazil could consider polyhalite as an option to meet crop K and secondary nutrient requirements.     

Effects of controlled‐release potassium fertilizer on available potassium,photosynthetic performance,and yield of cotton

Potassium (K) is one of the major mineral elements required for normal growth of cotton. However, understanding the effect of controlled‐release K fertilizer on leaf photosynthesis and K use efficiency (KUE) of cotton is currently limited. A two‐year pot experiment was consecutively conducted in 2014 and 2015 with three kinds of K fertilizer including K₂SO₄, KCl, and polymer‐coated KCl (CRK), each at four application rates (0.00, 0.86, 1.73, and 2.59 g K plant⁻¹, respectively). For each type of K fertilizer, the yield and K uptake of cotton increased but the KUE decreased with higher K fertilizer application. The release characteristics of K from CRK corresponded well to the K requirements during cotton growth. Plant‐available soil K, as well as leaf SPAD values, net photosynthetic rate (P_n), maximal photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fm), and effective quantum yield of photosystem II (ΦPSII) in CRK treatments were increased after full bloom stage compared to conventional K fertilizers under the same potassium application rate. Consequently, the CRK treatments significantly increased lint cotton yields by 8.1–32.7% and 3.7–20.8%, while the KUE increased by 15.5–54.8% and 14.5–45.4% compared to KCl and K₂SO₄ treatments, respectively. The results indicate that the application of CRK is intensively recommended to replace conventional potassium fertilizers for gaining greater yields and higher KUE of cotton.     

棉花膜下滴灌水氮耦合效应研究

在南疆气候条件下,研究了膜下滴灌棉花水氮耦合效应。结果表明,在膜下滴灌条件下,水氮存在明显的互作效应,水分胁迫极大地抑制肥效发挥,而水分适宜时,不同氮肥处理棉花产量差异显著;氮肥也促进了水分效应的发挥,但是水分是棉花产量的主效应因子。试验中最优水氮组合为每公顷灌水505.mm、氮肥225.kg。高产棉花冠层指标分别为:株高66.9.cm、叶龄15.6个、果枝13.1台、成铃数8.9个。水氮胁迫缩短了棉花生育期,这可能是不同水氮处理棉花产量差异的主要原因。     

控释氮肥对棉花叶片光合特性及产量的影响

以鲁棉研28号为材料,设计100%树脂包膜尿素基施、50%普通尿素+50%树脂包膜尿素基施和棉花控释专用肥基施3种控释氮肥处理,研究了等氮条件下,不同控释氮肥处理对棉花光合特性及产量的影响。结果表明,与生产对照(CK2)相比,100%树脂包膜尿素处理和棉花控释专用肥处理提高了植株上部叶片叶龄45和60 d的叶绿素含量、PSⅡ的活性(Fv/Fo)、光化学最大效率(Fv/Fm)、实际光化学效率(ΦPSⅡ)和光化学猝灭系数(qP),从而使叶片保持了较高的净光合速率;单株结铃数分别增加了0.77和0.84个,子棉产量分别增加6.2%和5.0%,皮棉产量分别提高6.4%和4.3%,分别达极显著和显著差异。而50%普通尿素和50%树脂包膜尿素处理与生产对照CK2差异较小。     

Effect of nutrient‐management practices on growth,fruiting pattern,and yield of Asiatic cotton (Gossypium arboreum L.)

Asiatic cotton (Gossypium arboreum) is mostly grown in the rainfed regions of India. However, little is known about the effects of nutrient‐management practices on plant growth and fruiting pattern of Asiatic cotton. Therefore, plant growth and fruiting pattern under four nutrient‐management treatments, N, NPK, FYM (10 Mg ha^–1), and INM (integrated nutrient management: a combination of NPK and FYM) were quantified during 2000–01 to 2002–03 (years 16 to 18 of a long‐term field experiment). Plants of the INM and FYM treatments were taller (68.4–149.5 cm) and had more main stem nodes per plant (30.5–44.5) as compared to N and NPK treatments. In treatment N, the shortest plants (50.9–83.6 cm) and the least number of fruiting structures were produced. Plants of the INM and FYM treatments accumulated more squares and bolls. Maximum boll production was 10–19 days earlier with the manure‐amended than the N and NPK treatments. Treatment N had the lowest seed cotton yield (639–790 kg ha^–1), because of small boll size (1.48–1.73 g) and few open bolls. Seed cotton yield followed the trend: NPK (815–1278 kg ha^–1) < INM (776–1551 kg ha^–1) < FYM (902–1593 kg ha^–1). Water stress and nutrient deficiencies (P and Zn in the N and Zn in the NPK treatments) as a consequence of nutrient depletion over the years may have decreased seed cotton yields in treatments that received mineral fertilizer alone in comparison with manure‐amended treatments. On a long‐term basis, FYM application should therefore form an integral part of nutrient recommendation.     

施钾量和施钾时期对棉花产量及不同部位棉铃纤维品质性状的影响

在大田试验条件下,以鲁棉研28号为材料,设置两个施钾量（K2O 100和150 kg/hm2）,采用一次性基施,1/2基施、1/2花铃期追施,研究施钾量和施钾时期对棉花（Gossyium hirsutum L.）产量及不同部位棉铃纤维品质性状的影响。结果表明:与不施钾相比,施钾显著提高了籽棉产量和皮棉产量;在施钾量为K2O 150 kg/hm2的条件下,与一次性基施相比,分期施钾极显著提高了籽棉产量和皮棉产量;采用分期施钾时（1/2基施、1/2花铃期追施）,随施钾量增加,籽棉产量和皮棉产量均显著增加,单株成铃数的增加是产量提高的主要原因。结果还表明,与不施钾相比,施钾显著提高了中部及上部果枝内围果节的马克隆值,分期施用K2O 150 kg/hm2显著提高了中部果枝外围果节的纤维长度、比强度以及中部果枝内围果节的纤维成熟度;在施钾时期相同的条件下,增加施钾量对纤维长度、比强度无显著影响,在施钾量相同的条件下,与一次性基施相比,分期施钾对纤维比强度无显著影响。     

花铃期高温胁迫对海岛棉不同部位果枝成铃质量的影响

以耐热差异明显的海岛棉品种‘新海43号’（XH43）和‘新海49号’（XH49）为材料,于盛花期在田间搭设塑料棚进行为期3d（H3）、6d（H6）和9d（H9）的增温处理,增温结束后立即恢复自然温度,以田间不搭棚的自然温度为对照（CK）,研究不同天数高温处理对海岛棉净光合速率、成铃率及不同部位果枝产量和品质的影响。结果表明：（1）高温胁迫降低了XH43和XH49的产量及产量构成因素,其中H6、H9处理均达到显著水平;高温胁迫显著降低了中部果枝的铃数、单铃重、衣分和籽棉产量,但显著增加了上部果枝铃数,促进了上部果枝产量的提高。（2）高温胁迫对XH43和XH49的纤维品质无显著影响,但导致两品种中部果枝棉铃上半部平均长度、整齐度指数和断裂比强度显著降低。而高温胁迫显著提高了上部果枝棉铃的断裂比强度,其中H6、H9处理均达到显著水平,较对照分别增加2.19%～5.12%和4.48%～7.59%。（3）高温胁迫下XH49各部位产量和品质变化幅度均大于XH43,表明高温胁迫对XH49影响更为严重。（4）花铃期短期高温胁迫,导致中部果枝棉铃大量脱落及发育受阻。在生殖生长后期,H6、H9处理后的棉株净光合速率显著高于对照,增温处理增强了棉株后期光合生产能力,进而提高了上部果枝的铃数、产量和断裂比强度。
