不同早、中熟基因型棉花品种的干物质积累及养分吸收规律研究

利用Logistic方程对2个早熟棉品种(中36、中50)和2个中熟品种(中41、鲁28)的单株干物质积累、N、P2O5、K2O吸收动态进行模拟研究,结果表明,早熟品种与中熟品种吸收积累养分的高峰期均在开花至吐絮期。2个早熟棉品种单株干物质质量、N、K2O积累快速增长持续时间短于中熟品种,P2O5积累快速增长持续时间略长于中熟品种。早熟品种在吐絮至收获阶段,干物质积累及养分吸收占全生育期的比例高于中熟品种,成熟单株对P2O5、K2O的吸收比例高于中熟品种,在肥料配比上可适度加大磷钾肥比例。     

Crop Productivity and Nutrient Bioavailability in a Potato-Based Three-Year Rotation as Affected by Composted Pulp Fiber Residue Application and Supplemental Irrigation

The possibility of using composted pulp fiber residues (CPFR) in a potato rotation in eastern Canada was tested. Three rates of CPFR (0, 45, and 90 Mg C ha^?1) with or without supplementary irrigation were applied. Pea (Pisum sativum L.), corn (Zea mays L.), and potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) were cultivated in 2002, 2003, and 2004, respectively. Soil total carbon (C) and nitrogen (N), bulk density, and water-holding capacity were improved by CPFR. Pea and corn yields and total dry matter were increased using CPFR. Supplemental irrigation increased pea yield compared with the rain-fed system. Total tuber yield was increased by CPFR in the irrigated but not in the rain-fed system. The CPFR application increased plant-available phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) in all rotation crops. Nitrogen accumulation in all rotation crops except potato was increased by CPFR. The CPFR application successfully enhanced soil fertility and crop productivity without any adverse effects.     

Nitrogen-Use Efficiency in Lowland Rice Genotypes under Field Conditions

Rice is staple food for more than 50% of the world's population. Nitrogen (N) is one of the most yield-limiting nutrients for lowland rice production around the world. Two field experiments were conducted at two locations for two consecutive years to evaluate N-use efficiency of 12 lowland rice genotypes. Growth, grain yield, and yield components were significantly influenced by N as well as genotype treatments. Location?×?year?×?genotype and location?×?year?×?N interactions were significant for most of the growth, yield, and yield components, indicating influence of these factors on yield and yield components. Overall, the most N-efficient genotypes measured in terms of grain yield were BRA 031032, BRA 031044, and BRA 02654 and the most inefficient genotypes were BRS Jaçana, BRS Fronteira, and BRA 02674. Genotypes had linear and quadratic responses to added N in the range of 0 to 200 kg ha^?1. Nitrogen significantly influenced plant height, shoot dry weight, panicle number, and 1000-grain weights. Nitrogen-use efficiency (kg grain per kg N applied) varied from 33 to 49 kg grain per kg N applied, with an average value of 40 kg grain per kg N applied. The genotype BRA 031044 produced the greatest N-use efficiency, and the lowest N-use efficient genotype was BRS Fronteira. There was a significant linear association between N-use efficiency and grain yield.     

Quantification of Organic Carbon in Soils: A Comparison of Methodologies and Assessment of the Carbon Content of Organic Matter

Abstract

Renewed interest in temporal soil organic carbon (SOC) stock changes has stressed the importance of reliable methods for quantitative assessment of organic compound (OC) content. Particularly with the establishment of modern dry‐combustion analyzers, which are replacing the traditional wet‐oxidation methods, the need for correct relationships between both is of crucial importance for comparison of past and current SOC data in long‐term SOC stock change studies. Dry combustion with a Variomax CNS‐analyzer was the standard to evaluate three other methods for Belgian agricultural soils. Excellent linear relationships were found with the Walkey and Black method and the Springer and Klee method, whereas a Shimadzu TOC‐analyzer slightly underestimated the OC content. Precision of the investigated methods was comparable and tended to be dependent on the sample size used for measurement. The OC oxidation efficiency of the most widely applied method of Walkey and Black for the soils in this study was very close to the generally accepted 75%. Mass loss on ignition at 800°C could be very well related to the soil OC content and the clay content. The traditional factor of 1.724 used to convert OC measurements to organic matter percentages is not valid for the investigated soils, which demonstrates that rather regional‐specific factors (in this study 1.911) should be determined and adopted.     

Availability of Lead and Cadmium in Farmland Soil and Its Distribution in Individual Plants of Dry‐Seeded Rice

Abstract

Availability of lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) in farmland soils and its distribution in individual plants of dry‐seeded rice were investigated utilizing graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS) with a matrix modification technique. Five extractants were compared, and the operating conditions for GFAAS were optimized. The detection limits were 4.2 ng for Pb with the precision of 1.54% and 0.1 ng for Cd with the precision of 2.38%. The contents of the extractable Pb and Cd in soils were determined with the five extractants, and availability of Pb and Cd in farmland soil was discussed. The contents of Pb and Cd in different parts of dry‐seeded rice were lower than those in dry‐seeded rice soil. The contents of Pb and Cd in rice were lower than in other parts. The end top leaves accumulated the highest amounts of Pb and Cd.     

Land Application of Aluminum Water Treatment Residual: Aluminum Phytoavailability and Forage Yield

Negative impacts of land‐applied aluminum (Al)–rich water treatment residuals (WTRs), which have been suggested to improve soil phosphorus (P) sorption, could include excessive immobilization of plant‐available P and Al phytotoxicity. We studied the impacts of an Al‐rich WTRs on agronomic returns and plant Al concentrations in glasshouse and field studies. The glasshouse study was a 4 × 2 × 3 factorial experiment with one control in a randomized complete block design and three replicates. Four sources of P were each applied at two agronomic rate [44 kg P ha^?1, P‐based rate; and 179 kg plant‐available nitrogen (PAN) ha^?1, N‐based rate] to topsoil (0–15 cm) of a sandy, siliceous, hyperthermic Arenic Alaquods. Three WTR rates (0, 10, and 25 g kg^?1 oven‐dry‐weight basis) were further applied, whereas the control received neither P source nor WTRs. Bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Fluggae), ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.), and a second bahiagrass crop were continuously grown in succession for 18 months. Applied WTRs increased soil Al but not plant Al concentrations (22–80 mg Al kg^?1), which fell within the normal concentration range for pasture plants. In the glasshouse, when WTRs were incorporated with the soil, bahiagrass dry matter (DM) accumulation was reduced, but ryegrass DM was not affected even at 25 g kg^?1 WTR. A 2‐year field study, with same treatments but two rates of WTRs (0 and 10 g kg^?1 WTR) surface applied to established bahiagrass on the same soil type (Spodosols) showed neither reduced yields nor increased plant Al phytoavailability in the WTR treatments. The studies show no increase in plant Al is associated with Al‐WTRs applied to reduce excess soil‐soluble P and P losses but plant DM accumulation may be reduced.     

Response of five tobacco cultivars to sodium phosphate and ammonium polyphosphate

Abstract

Three greenhouse experiments were conducted to compare the response of five tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) cultivars to different levels of NaH₂PO₄ and ammonium polyphosphate (APP) in nutrient media by measuring tissue content of selected nutrient elements (P, Na, K, Ca and Mg). Plants were grown in sand cultures fertilized with nutrient solutions in two experiments and a soil‐sand mix fertilized with solid materials in a third experiment. Plant P and Na content increased as the concentrations of these elements increased in nutrient solution. Plant K content was not generally affected by treatments. Magnesium was reduced in flue‐cured and cigar‐filler tobaccos but was not changed in cigar‐wrapper and Turkish types by increasing amounts of NaH₂PO₄. All of the cultivars responded similarly to NaH₂PO₄ with respect to plant Ca. High levels of P in the nutrient media were consistently related to low levels of Ca in plant tissue.     

Rapid preparation of plant samples for cation analysis

Abstract

In the dry ashing of plant material for chemical analysis, the hot digestion on the steam bath of the ashed sample was replaced by the quantitative addition of dilute HCl and stirring very briefly to dissolve the ash. By waiting a few minutes for the particles to settle, there was no need to filter the solution prior to dilution with an automatic diluter and the determination of K, Na, Ca and Mg by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The new procedure permits the handling of large batches of samples conveniently, eliminates the use of pipettes and volumetric flasks and decreases the risk of inadvertent contamination by sodium and therefore enhances accuracy. Precision was at least as good as with the standard procedure and the method is expected to be more suitable for use in conjunction with automated analytical techniques.     

基于微观球体颗粒模型的土水特征曲线研究

When variations occur in the water content or dry bulk density of soil,the contact angle hysteresis will affect the soil-water characteristic curve(SWCC).The occurrence of the contact angle hysteresis can be divided into slipping and pinning.It is difficult to determine the effect of pinning existence on SWCC by tests.In this study,the effect of contact angle hysteresis on SWCC was analyzed either in the case of no variations in soil dry bulk density with changes in soil water content or no variations in soil water content with changes in soil dry bulk density.In both cases,soil particles were simplified to the spherical particle model.Based on the geometrically mechanic relationship between the particles and connecting liquid bridges,a physical model for predicting the SWCC was derived from the spherical particle model.Adjusting parameters made the model applicable to various soils,that is,the cohesive soil was considered as micron-sized spherical particles.Through the simulations on SWCC test data of sand,silt,clay,and swelling soil,it was confirmed that the physical model possessed good reliability and practicability.Finally,the analysis of rationality of contact angle was performed based on the basic assumptions of the model.     

不同氮肥群体最高生产力水稻品种各器官的干物质和氮素的积累与转运

采用大田试验,以长江中下游地区有代表性的50个早熟晚粳品种为供试材料,设置7个氮肥水平(0、150.0、187.5、225.0、262.5、300.0、337.5 kg/hm2),得出各品种在这7个氮肥水平下出现的群体最高生产力,将该最高生产力定义为氮肥群体最高生产力。根据各品种的氮肥群体最高生产力从高到低将50个品种分为4个产量水平,对不同产量水平品种间各器官的干物质和氮素积累转运、分配等特性进行系统地比较研究。结果表明,抽穗期叶片的氮素含量和氮素积累量以及成熟期叶片和穗的干物质与氮素积累量随产量水平递减逐渐降低;拔节至抽穗阶段茎鞘的干物质积累率以及叶片的干物质和氮素积累速率也随产量水平递减逐渐降低;抽穗至成熟阶段产量大于10.50 t/hm2的水稻品种,茎鞘和叶片的干物质和氮素转运贡献率比其他产量水平低,但穗部干物质和氮素增加量却比其他产量水平高。在满足氮肥群体最高生产力的施肥条件下,拔节至抽穗阶段叶片的干物质、氮素积累速率和产量呈极显著正相关(r=0.635,r=0.539),抽穗至成熟阶段叶片的干物质转运量与产量呈显著负相关(r=-0.360),而叶片的氮素转运量与产量呈显著正相关(r=0.333)。产量大于10.50 t/hm2的水稻品种叶片的干物质和氮素积累与转运比其他产量水平品种在抽穗后表现出明显的优势,穗部物质积累与氮素积累量较高。抽穗后在保持茎鞘适宜的物质和氮素积累量的基础上,提高叶片的物质和氮素积累,进一步加大穗部的物质和氮素积累,是获得高产的保障。
