Effect of Heat Stress on Grain Growth, Starch Synthesis and Protein Synthesis in Grains of Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Varieties Differing in Grain Weight Stability

The effect of heat stress on the components of grain weight was analysed in wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) varieties differing in grain weight stability. The wheat varieties PBW154, Sonalika and Hindi62 were raised in the field (New Delhi, India; 77°12' E, 28°40' N, 228.6 m a.s.l.) at three dates of sowing: 19 November 1992 (DOS I), 14 December 1992 (DOS II) and 18 January 1993 (DOS III). The late-sown crop (DOS III) experienced 6–8 °C warmer temperatures during grain development than the crop sown at the normal time (DOS I). The heat susceptibility index (S) revealed that grain weight was less susceptible to heat in Sonalika and PBW154 than in Hindi62. Heat stress reduced both the grain growth duration (GGD) and the grain growth rate (GGR). The grain weight reduction in PBW154 and Sonalika was mainly due to a reduction in GGR, while that of Hindi62 was due to a reduction in GGD. In vivo studies on starch and protein synthesis in excised endosperm at 15, 25 and 35 °C revealed that both processes were more thermotolerant in Hindi62 than in PBW154. The grain starch content was stable in Hindi62 while that in PBW154 was significantly reduced under heat stress. The grain nitrogen content at maturity increased in both varieties under heat stress. It was concluded that the heat susceptibility of grain weight in Hindi62 was mainly due to a reduction in GGD, although GGR, starch and protein synthesis were more thermotolerant in developing grains of Hindi62 than in those of PBW154.     

绿竹种源含水率变异研究

分别年龄(1a、2a、3a)和地上部分不同器官(叶、枝、秆)及地下部分,对福建省不同绿竹种源在试验点的标准竹的含水率变化情况进行测定,结果表明:各绿竹种源的不同器官含水率有差异,漳州试点各器官(枝、秆)平均含水率均稍小于永安试点,而竹叶则漳州试点稍高于永安试点。不同年龄含水率变化趋势为随着年龄的增长,各器官含水率不同程度地下降。绝大多数种源地下部分含水率大于地上部分,其比值最高可达1.25倍(永安1a①号种源),少数略低于地上部分(永安3a④号、漳州3a③号种源等)。不同种源地下部分含水率的绝对值较接近,种源间差异较小。

磷指数模型在美国的应用和发展

磷是植物生长必需的营养元素之一,在农业生产中起着关键作用。然而,长期过量的磷肥投入导致土壤磷素水平增加,进而加大了土壤磷素流失风险,造成农业非点源磷污染,同时这也成为导致水体富营养化的主要因素之一。因此,识别和管理农业非点源磷的流失风险关键区,成为面源污染亟待解决的关键问题。磷指数模型起源于20世纪90年代,是评估农田磷流失潜力和指导磷管理决策的重要工具之一。根据研究区特点,美国众多学者在各州设立了不同的磷指数指标体系,优化了磷指数的组成因子、计算方法和分级标准。本文对美国各州磷指数模型评价体系进行了综述和评价,指出了磷指数模型的局限性,提出了改进方向,以期为我国磷素管理方法提供借鉴。     

不同硒源对大麦农艺性状的影响及富硒效应研究

为了探明不同硒源对大麦的效应,对六个大麦品种(系)分别施用三种硒源(富硒复混肥、硒矿粉、亚硒酸钠)后的农艺性状及籽粒含硒量进行了分析,结果表明:①不同硒源均能提高大麦籽粒的含硒量,其增加量为0.016～0.087 mg/kg,增幅为14.4%～78.0%,富硒复混肥的效果较优;②不同大麦品种(系)施硒的籽粒含硒量为0.133～0.187mg/kg,比对照提高10.36%～80.65%;③施硒对大麦生育期无明显影响,但株高和穗长有增加趋势,千粒重有降低趋势.

玉米粗淀粉加酶挤压参数对抗性淀粉含量的影响

玉米粗淀粉是制作淀粉糖浆的主要原料之一,为探求玉米粗淀粉通过加酶挤压使玉米淀粉糖浆的DE和出品率增加、过滤速度加快、糖化时间缩短的原因,通过试验,用二次正交旋转组合试验设计安排试验,研究挤压蒸煮参数(套筒温度、物料含水率、螺杆转速、膨化中加酶量)对玉米粗淀粉中抗性淀粉含量的影响规律,得出通过挤压蒸煮技术可以使玉米粗淀粉中的抗性淀粉降低约4.5%,从而提高淀粉利用率。
