Physiological Basis of Irrigation Scheduling for Seed Production in Egyptian Clover Syn. Berseem (Trifolium alexandrinum L.) Crop

A field experiment was conducted to find out the critical physiological stages of irrigation schedules inducing better growth, physiological efficiency and seed yield potential of berseem ( Trifolium alexandrinum L., Var. S-99-1). For this purpose eight irrigation treatments were made comprised of four treatments of three irrigation (W₁, W₂, W₃ and W₄), three treatments of four irrigation (W₅, W₇ and W₈) and one treatment of five irrigation (W₆) at various physiological stages i. e. regeneration, flower initiation, full bloom, seed initiation and advance seed development stage.
Thus based on the experimental results the physiological role of watering in berseem seed production could be discussed as:
With-holding of irrigation either at regeneration or at full bloom stage developed potential water stress in plants as indicated by high proline content of irrigation treatments — W₄, W₁ and W₇; and further brought out disturbance on the formation of carotene, synthesis of water soluble sugar and translocation of sugar towards reproductive organs during grain development stage. These stresses adversely affected the plant growth and flowering behaviour. The irrigation at seed initiation stage increased the seed yield. Continuous irrigation did not appear to be useful. Thus it can be concluded that irrigation at three critical physiological stages i. e. regeneration, full bloom and seed initiation was found to be essential for obtaining potential seed yield of berseem.     

铅胁迫对金丝草生长及生理生化的影响

采用土培方法,探究不同梯度铅胁迫(0、1000、2000和3000 mg·kg^-1)对金丝草生长形态、体内抗氧化系统和渗透调节物质的影响。结果表明:低浓度(1000 mg·kg^-1)处理会诱导金丝草叶片过氧化物酶(POD)活性、可溶性蛋白(SP)含量和根系抗超氧阴离子自由基活力(ASAFR)、可溶性糖(SS)及脯氨酸(Pro)含量增加,使得金丝草植株总抗氧化能力(T-AOC)处于较高水平,促进了金丝草株高、叶长和生物量的增加。随胁迫浓度增加,高浓度(2000~3000 mg·kg^-1)处理下,金丝草叶片和根系丙二醛(MDA)含量迅速增加,株高、叶长、叶面积和生物量下降,生长受到抑制。但金丝草通过增强叶片和根系POD、过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性来抵御过氧化作用,提高可溶性蛋白和可溶性糖含量维持细胞正常运作,增加根系生物量占比来加强根系发育,一定程度适应了高浓度铅胁迫。综上表明,金丝草主要通过叶片和根系不同抗氧化酶差异化响应、提高渗透调节物质含量,提升金丝草植株总抗氧化能力等途径来提高Pb耐性,对Pb污染矿区植物修复有较大潜力。     

Mild Drought Stress‐Induced Changes in Yield,Physiological Processes and Chemical Composition in Festuca,Lolium and Festulolium

The impact of mild drought stress (3 weeks at 40 % field water capacity) on yield, physiological processes, accumulation of proline and phenolic compounds and forage quality parameters in forage grasses was evaluated in pot experiments. During four different growing periods, the effects of water deficit were assessed in nine varieties from five species (Lolium perenne, Lolium multiflorum, Festuca pratensis, Festuca arundinacea and Festulolium braunii). All measured parameters were affected by drought stress in the different cuts. Photosynthesis, transpiration rate, stomatal conductance and dry matter yield were significantly lower in drought stress than under well‐watered conditions in all varieties. Higher water‐use efficiency was only observed during the first and fourth drought period, while this was not the case in the second and third. Mild drought stress significantly increased the content of proline, phenolic acid, flavonoids, water‐soluble carbohydrates and protein. All tested grasses showed also an increase of organic matter digestibility and cell wall digestibility under drought stress conditions.     

不同灌水处理小麦品种抗旱性鉴定指标遗传规律研究

依据Griffing方法配制种植不同类型的复合双列杂交组合,分别设水、旱二种水分条件。在不同生育时期测定株高、株穗数、株粒重、穗粒数、黄叶片数、SOD、POD、MDA等农艺、生理生化性状,研究不同组合类型对杂交后代的遗传力影响及其与抗旱性的关系及遗传规律。结果表明,可采用抗旱指数(DRI)作为评价小麦品种抗旱性强弱的指标。旱地株粒重、旱地穗下节长、旱地黄叶片、籽粒饱满度、落黄、旱地成穗数、旱地株高等7个质量性状和数量性状与抗旱性关系密切且遗传力较强,可作为高产种质杂种后代的早期抗旱性鉴定指标。SOD活性和MDA含量由于广义遗传力和狭义遗传力均较高,可以在杂种后代早期世代进行选择,OA能力和POD活性广义遗传力较高但狭义遗传力低,适宜在杂种后代的晚期世代进行选择。     

华北落叶松和白杆幼苗脯氨酸及淀粉含量对水分和光照变化的响应

以2年生华北落叶松和白杆幼苗为研究对象,通过人工控制条件下的幼苗栽培试验,测定不同光照、水分条件下脯氨酸含量、淀粉含量的变化,综合比较分析了华北落叶松和白析苗期生长对光照和水分变化的生理响应。研究结果表明：随着土壤水分的减少,华北落叶松和白不工幼苗脯氨酸含量增高,淀粉含量下降,且华北落叶松的变化都高于白杆,华北落叶松幼苗比白析幼苗对土壤水分胁迫的响应能力更强;随着光照的增强,也有相同的表现。光照和水分条件的变化对华北落叶松和白析幼苗脯氨酸和淀粉含量的影响具有叠加作用,2个树种对水分胁迫和强光照的响应机制一致,但树种间响应强度不同,华北落叶松的响应能力更强,华北落叶松具有比白术千更大的抗干旱胁迫的生理基础。     

超重力处理对大白菜生理生化特性影响的研究

以新丰抗90白菜种子为试验材料,在1 000×g、2 000×g、4 000×g 3种不同超重力的条件下分别处理20、40、60 min后,幼苗期采取叶片测定其游离脯氨酸含量、过氧化物酶活性、超氧化物歧化酶活性。结果显示,2 000×g,40 min处理游离普氨酸含量最低;4 000×g,60 min处理游离脯氨酸含量最高,与对照相比,所有处理均抑制游离普氨酸的形成。1 000×g,20 min处理后的POD活性最高;2 000×g,60 min处理后的POD活性最低,但高于对照,超重力处理能显著提高POD活性。1 000×g,40 min处理SOD活性最高,4 000×g,60 min处理SOD活性最低,适宜的超重力处理有利于提高SOD活性。     

Application of biochar in mitigation of negative effects of salinity stress in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Salinity is a major abiotic stress that affects crop production throughout the world. Biochar is an activated carbon soil conditioner that can alleviate the negative impacts of salinity. The research was conducted to evaluate the ameliorative effect of 1% and 2% of biochar application on wheat seed germination and growth attributes under salinity. Both levels of biochar improved the germination and growth conditions under salinity; however, 2% biochar level was more effective compared to 1% level. Root and shoot length increased up to 23% and11% with 2% biochar, respectively. The maximum increase of 16% and 10% in leaf water potential and osmotic potential was noted with 2% biochar at 150 mM salt. The decrease in proline content and soluble sugar at 2% biochar was 51% and 27%, respectively. Decrease in superoxide dismutase activity was 15.3% at 2% level of biochar under stress biochar mitigates the negative effects of salinity and improved wheat productivity.     

分蘖期水分对香稻香气及生理特性的影响

以常规香稻品种桂香占和美香占为材料,采用盆栽试验,研究了分蘖期水分对香稻香气及生理特性的影响。结果表明,分蘖期土壤水势维持在0～(-25±5)kPa时,显著增加了二香稻品种糙米的香气成分和籽粒的游离脯氨酸以及成熟期叶片、茎鞘和籽粒的脯氨酸氧化酶活性。分蘖期土壤水势维持在0～(-50±5)kPa时,降低了二品种籽粒脯氨酸氧化酶活性、糙米的香气成分和有效分蘖。因此,适当的分蘖期节水灌溉模式能有效提高香稻香气成分,且不影响水稻后期生理特性。     

盐胁迫对阿月浑子可溶性糖、淀粉、脯氨酸含量的影响

本研究用NaCl和Na2SO4处理两个阿月浑子品种,处理浓度均为50,150,250,500mmol·L-1,盐胁迫5,10,20d后取叶样,并测定可溶性糖、淀粉、脯氨酸含量变化。NaCl,Na2SO4胁迫下,长果和Kerman叶片内可溶性糖含量明显增高,借此来维持细胞内的渗透平衡,其中Kerman植株中可溶性糖含量增加幅度大,而长果增加幅度较小;叶片内淀粉含量略有增高,使其能够维持一定的渗透平衡,其中Kerman植株中淀粉含量增加幅度大,长果的增加幅度相对较小;叶片内脯氨酸(Pro)含量迅速上升,来维持渗透平衡,当阿月浑子植株受到盐胁迫时,叶片中的Pro含量成倍增长。
