以辽园多丽和樱桃番茄红玉为试材,采用叶面喷施磷酸二氢钾、葡萄糖及其两者的混合液,研究叶面喷肥对两个品种番茄光合速率及蔗糖代谢的影响。结果表明：叶面喷肥可明显提高番茄叶片中叶绿素的含量及叶片的净光合速率。通过叶面喷肥处理,提高了2个品种番茄果实内果糖和葡萄糖的含量,提高了果实中酸性转化酶和中性转化酶的活力水平,蔗糖合成酶（SS）和蔗糖磷酸合成酶（SPS）活力也得到明显提高。以叶面喷施磷酸二氢钾及其与葡萄糖两者的混合液效果较好,单独喷施葡萄糖效果稍差。表明在叶面喷施葡萄糖、磷酸二氢钾和两者的混合液条件下,果实是通过提高4种酶的活力来提高库强度的。果实库强度增加的同时,相应地促进了同化产物的运转和干物质的积累。     

Soil Properties Influence Distribution of Extractable Boron in Soil Profile

Depth distribution of boron (B) extractable by hot calcium chloride (HCC), potassium dihydrogen phosphate (PDP), and tartaric acid (TA) in some typical B‐deficient Inceptisols, Entisols, and Alfisols in relation to soil properties was studied. The magnitude of B extraction followed the order HCC > PDP > TA for Inceptisols, TA > HCC > PDP for Entisols, and PDP > HCC > TA for Alfisols and showed a decrease along soil depth. The low pH of TA and effective desorption of B by phosphate of PDP are attributed to their higher efficiency in extracting B in Entisols and Alfisols, respectively. A decrease in organic carbon (C), clay, and amorphous iron oxide content was responsible for the observed decrease in extractable B along depth of soil profile. The HCC showed more efficiency than PDP and TA for extracting B in soils high in organic C. Multiple regression equations explained only 21, 57, and 59% of the variability in PDP‐, HCC‐, and TA‐extractable B content in soils by the soil properties analyzed, of which organic C and clay were the most important. There were dynamic equilibria among the amount of B extracted by the extractants, indicating B extraction by them from more or less similar pools in the soils.     

Availability and extractability of soil manganese in a liming experiment

Abstract

The availability of soil Mn to corn in relation to extractability of soil Mn by EDTA, Mg(NO₃)₂, CH₃COONH₄, hydroquinone, H₃PO₄, and NH₄H₂PO₄ as affected by liming was evaluated under field conditions on a single soil type. EDTA, Mg(NO₃)₂ and CH₃COONH₄‐extractable Mn were related inversely to available Mn. No useful relationships were found between hydroquinone, H₃PO₄, and NH₄H₂PO₄‐extractable soil Mn and Mn uptake by sweet corn.     

Phosphorus Stress Induced Variations in Growth Behavior and P Efficiency among Brassica Cultivars Grown with Sparingly Soluble P Sources

To evaluate phosphorus (P)–stress–induced relative growth responses, P-efficiency characteristics, P remobilization, and redesign in root architectural systems, Brassica cultivars were grown with sparingly soluble rock phosphate and calcium phosphate [Ca₃(PO₄)₂] or with low/high P supply in solution and sand culture experiments. Tested cultivars showed considerable genetic diversity in biomass accumulation, concentration and contents of P, P-stress factor (PSF), and P-efficiency characteristics [P-utilization efficiency (PUE), P efficiency (PE), and P-efficiency ratio (PER)]. Statistically significant correlations were observed between P efficiency and growth parameters. Elongation rates of primary roots decreased but the length of lateral roots and branched zone elongation rates increased under P starvation. Cultivars remobilized P from metabolically inactive to active sites in P-stressed plants that may have helped low-P-tolerant cultivars to establish a better rooting system, which provided basis for enhanced P-use efficiency and tolerance against P stress. Cultivars depicting high P efficiency and low PSF values were more tolerant and are a better choice to grow under P-stress environments.     

Determination of Optimum Rate and Growth Stage for Foliar‐Applied Phosphorus in Corn

Abstract

Foliar applications of fertilizer phosphorus (P) could improve use efficiency by minimizing soil applications. Nine experiments were conducted in 2002 and 2003 to determine foliar P rates and appropriate growth stages for application. Treatments comprised of 10 factorial combinations of three foliar P application timings and four rates of foliar P. Foliar application times were V4 (collar of fourth leaf visible), V8 (collar of eighth leaf visible), and VT (last branch of the tassel completely visible but silks not yet emerged) corn growth stages. Foliar P rates were 0, 2, 4, and 8 kg ha^?1. Foliar P applied at the VT growth stage improved grain and forage P concentration, which was reflected in increased grain yield in some of the experiments. A foliar P rate of 8 kg ha^?1 improved yield to some extent and forage and grain P concentration more than the smaller rates. The results suggest that foliar P could be used as an efficient P‐management tool in corn when applied at the appropriate growth stage and rate.     

Absorption and transport of Na and Cl in rice cultivars differing in their tolerance to salinity: An examination of the effects of ammonium and potassium salts

The absorption and transport of Na and Cl from 0.1 mM and 10 mM ²²Na labelled NaCl or ³⁶Cl labelled KCl were examined in 15 days old seedlings of 3 cultivars of rice differing in their tolerance to salinity. Furthermore, the effects of 10, 100 and 1000 ppm (N)₂S on their uptake were studied. It was found that in general, the salt‐tolerant cultivars BR and PNL‐1 absorbed more Na and translocated a lesser proportion of it to the shoot, compared to the salt‐sensitive IR‐8, from 0.1 mM NaCl. The presence of (N)₂S reduced the uptake of Na in all the cultivars. It was also found that the presence of 100 ppm K, KN or NNreduced Na absorption from 0.1 mM NaCl significantly in all the cultivars, and the translocation to shoot in BR‐ Chloride transport from 0.1 mM NaCl was reduced by (N)₂S in all the cultivars. The 3 cultivars differed significantly in the rates of absorption and transport of Na and Cl. The results indicate that PNL‐1 which is a cross of IR‐8 X BR, has inherited the salt tolerance trait from BR. Lower rates of Na translocation to the shoot can be used as an index of salt tolerance in rice.     

Air Drying Affects Extractable Sulfate in Soils of Variable Charge: Test of Two Extraction and Two Quantification Methods

Abstract

Fertilizer recommendations need to be based on reliable soil sulfate determinations. Airdrying samples changes irreversibly many properties of soils with variable charge and might affect the extractable sulfate. In this study, sulfate extracted from air‐dry and field‐moist samples was compared. Two extracting solutions [water and 00.1 M Ca(H₂PO₄) ₂] and two quantification methods (turbidimetry and ion chromatography) were assayed on A and B horizon samples of five Humic Acrisols from southeast Mexico. Air drying increased water‐extractable sulfate in Ah horizons, whereas in Bt horizons, it increased the 00.1 M Ca(H₂PO₄)₂‐extractable sulfate. Airdrying increased dissolved organic carbon contents in all samples and increased soil acidity and oxalate extractable iron in 70 and 60% of the samples, respectively. Results showed larger coefficients of variation in air‐dried samples. Turbidimetry resulted less sensible than ion chromatography. To enhance sensitivity and reproducibility, particularly organic soil samples should be analyzed field‐moist and by ion chromatography.

Chemical fixation of ammonia to soil organic matter after application of urea

Chemical fixation of NH₃ to soil organic matter was studied in two Swedish soils with different contents of organic matter: a clay soil with 2.3% C and an organic soil with 36.6% C. ¹⁵N‐labelled urea was applied at different rates to both sterilized and non‐sterilized soils. After 10 days, the soils were extracted and washed with K₂SO₄ and determined for total N and atom% ¹⁵N excess. Urea N was recovered as non‐extractable N in sterilized soil corresponding to 9.7% of supplied ^l5N‐labelled urea in the organic soil and 2.2% in the clay soil. Since no biological immobilization is thought to occur in the sterile soil, this non‐extractable N is suggested to be chemically fixed to soil organic matter. Owing to urea hydrolysis in the clay soil, pH increased from 6.3 to 9.3 and in the organic soil from 5.7 to 6.9 and 8.8, respectively, at the low and high urea supply.     

The effect of ZnSO4 and KNO3 on quantitative and qualitative properties of Punica granatum L.

Abstract

We investigated the effect of foliar application of potassium nitrate (KNO₃) and zinc sulfate (ZnSO₄) on the fruit quality of pomegranate (Punica granatum L. cv. Malas-E–Torsh in Saveh). Potassium was applied as KNO₃ at concentrations of 0%, 0.25%, and 0.5% and zinc was applied as ZnSO₄ at concentrations of 0%, 0.5%, and 1% in a completely randomized block design. To determine the effect of the treatments on fruit quality, we measured fruit weight, peel thickness, aril diameter, phenol content of the juice, pH, total soluble solids (TSS), titratable acidity (TA), and antioxidant capacity. Foliar application of KNO₃ significantly increased fruit weight, 100 aril weight, peel weight, peel thickness, TTS, and antioxidant capacity. In contrast, pH, TA, TSS/TA, and phenol content of the juice were not influenced by foliar application of KNO₃. ZnSO₄ significantly increased fruit weight, aril diameter, and phenol content of the juice. KNO₃ 1% and ZnSO₄ 0.5% were identified as the most appropriate treatments in improving quality and quantity of pomegranate. The fatty acid profile of the pomegranate oil was primarily composed of punicic acid, linoleic acid, oleic acid, palmitic acid, and stearic acid.

为了治理粪便臭气污染,测定了猪粪好氧堆肥过程中NH₃和H₂S的释放量以及堆肥温度、pH值、含水率、水溶性铵态氮等指标。结果表明,NH₃在前20天释放量占总释放量的84.6%、H₂S在前13天释放量占总释放量的100%。因此,在堆肥初期的前20天是控制臭气的最佳时期。并从畜禽粪便、垃圾、土壤和堆肥中分离、纯化了一些微生物,经过初筛得到能利用NH₃的微生物41株,经过复筛得到脱除H₂S较好的细菌一株,与对照相比其去除率达85.7%,经鉴定该菌是松鼠葡萄球菌。     

Changes in some enzyme activities and the nicotinamide nucleotide coenzymes in barley seedlings during vernalization

Respiratory metabolism was investigated by determining the following enzyme activities and nicotinamide nucleotide coenzyme contents in barley shoots (Hordeum vulgare L., var. Akashinriki) during vernalization : glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphoglucoisomerase, enolase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, and glutamic dehydrogenase. The activities of glucose-6-phosphate de hydrogenase and phosphoglucoisomerase in vernalized shoots were slightly lower than those in non-vernalized samples. Malate dehydrogenase activity increased gradually in vernalized shoots and was always higher than in non-vernalized shoots. Activation was found in enolase, isocitrate dehydrogenase and glutamic dehydrogenase after a long vernalization treatment.

The contents of total nicotinamide nucleotide coenzymes increased during the early germination stage in both treatments, then decreased gradually in the succeeding stage.     

Tomato growth and mineral composition as influenced by nitrogen form and light intensity

Abstract

Tomato plants were grown in sand culture with NH⁺ ₄, and NO^? ₃, forms of N and three levels of light. Plants supplied with NH⁺ ₄, nutrition under high light intensity had symptoms of stunting, leaf roll, wilting, interveinal chlorosis of the older leaves, and one third the dry weight of N0₃‐fed plants. In contrast, growth of plants receiving NH⁺ ₄, nutrition under shade appeared normal although dry weight was reduced. NH₄‐N nutrition suppressed K, Ca and Mg accumulation in tissues and increased P contents as compared to NO₃‐N nutrition.     

The Leaching Behaviour and Balances of Nitrogen and Other Elements under Spring Wheat in Lysimeter Experiment 1985–92

Abstract

In a lysimeter study it was found that moderate rates of ammonium nitrate increased utilization percentages in spring wheat, and the leaching was 10% or less of added N. Over-optimal rates reduced utilization percentages and increased leaching to almost 50% of the highest doses. Late split application of calcium nitrate increased the percentage of N in grain. Furthermore, leaching of N was not reduced, but occurred somewhat later in the fall and winter seasons. Leaching of Cl^? was more rapid and that of SO₄ ^2- was delayed relative to the leaching of NO₃ ^?. Rather large negative N balances were obtained, also after over-optimal application rates, and total N content of the soil was reduced. Compared with the N₀ treatment, differences in soil N residues amounted to 15–25% of added N in seven years. Gaseous losses had apparently taken place both from the added N and from soil N according to the total-N analysis.     

Influence of Sampling Date on Soil Nitrogen Availability Indices

In spite of the great effort that has been devoted to the search for a chemical laboratory index to predict nitrogen (N) mineralization capability of soils, the results have not yet been fully satisfactory. A continued effort is still needed to increase the knowledge of the sources of variation that influence potentially available soil N. The time of sampling has received little attention, taking into account its potential to influence N-mineralization patterns. In this work, soil samples from three different agrosystems, consisting of a double-crop sequence of small grains and maize, an intensively grazed pasture, and a rainfed olive orchard, were collected at different dates. Several chemical extractions were performed, and the results were correlated with N uptake by turnip (Brassica campestris, L.) grown in a pot experiment. Kjeldahl N was the chemical test that best correlated (R ² = 0.621) with N uptake by turnip. Kjeldahl N showed great versatility relative to the origin of the soil samples. However, it was not very sensitive to the time of sampling. It did not detect changes occurring in the soil over a short period of time. Soil inorganic N showed the second highest coefficient of correlation (R ² = 0.483) with N uptake by turnip. In contrast to that observed with Kjeldahl N, soil inorganic N appeared as an index that can vary greatly over the short term. The hot saline potassium chloride (KCl) extractions gave generally fair results. The poorest, however, were obtained with the ultraviolet absorption of extracts of 0.01 mol L^?1 sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO₃) measured at 250- and 260-nm wavelengths.     

Seasonal Dynamics of Mineral Nitrogen in the 10th and 30th Years of a Long‐Term Field Experiment in Hungary

Abstract

Long‐term field experiments are the most suitable tools for determining the optimal nutrient‐supplying technologies that contribute to sustainable agriculture. Under certain environmental conditions (low precipitation, deep groundwater table, negative water balance), part of the applied nitrogen (N) can be found in the soil profile for a longer period and provide N nutrition for crops. A long‐term field experiment has been running at Nagyhörcsök in Hungary since 1973. The nitrogen–phosphorus–potassium (NPK) application rates follow the overall nutrient‐supplying categories (weak, medium, adequate, excessive) by the main nutrients and their combinations. The seasonal dynamics of exchangeable NH₄ and NO₃ were followed in 1983 and 2003. From certain treatments, two parallel average samples (20–20 subsamples were mixed to get average composite samples by plots) were collected 19 times from March through November from three soil layers. There was no difference in NH₄‐N between years, and its seasonal fluctuation was slight in both years, whereas there was an increase in NO₃‐N in accordance with the applied N rates. No significant difference occurred in the NO₃‐N of the N₀P₀K₀ and the N₁P₁K₁ treatments during both years. A significantly higher NO₃‐N content was observed in the higher rate nutrient treatments. Both soil N forms were higher in 1983 than in 2003. Based on the experimental results, the fate and behavior of the surplus N in the soil can be characterized and the residual amount can be taken into account during the calculation of the N‐fertilization demand of arable crops in relation to the N‐fertilizer advisory system.     

Tomato growth and nutrient uptake patterns as influenced by nitrogen form and light intensity 1

Tomato plants were grown in sand culture with NH₄ or NO₃ forms of N and at two levels of light. Plants were harvested at 0, 5, 9, or 12 days after starting treatments. NH₄‐N nutrition reduced growth, suppressed K, Ca, and Mg accumulation in shoot, increased P and N content and markedly reduced K, Ca, and Mg uptake per unit of root surface. Reduced light level decreased the toxic effects of NH₄ and markedly decreased NH₄ accumulation in shoots.
