一品红组培苗移栽期叶片生理与解剖变化

一品红(Euphorbia pulcherrima),别名象牙红、老来娇、圣诞花、猩猩木,为大戟科大戟属的重要花卉,世界各地广为栽培,为圣诞节、元旦、春节的优良装饰花卉。目前我国市场的矮化一品红主要由进口种苗培育而成,国内利用组织培养技术培育矮化一品红种苗已有不少成功的报道(钟士传等,1999;蒋小满等,2002),但一品红试管苗移栽时叶片较易萎蔫、成活率较低,为其种苗生产带来了困难。本试验研究一品红试管苗在移栽驯化过程中叶片蒸腾、光合特性及解剖结构的变化,探索提高其移栽成活率的方法,以便为矮化一品红种苗产业化提供技术支持。1材料与方法1·…

Changes of Leaf Physiology and Anatomy of Poinsettia Plantlet in Transplantation

The physiological and anatomical changes in leaves of Poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima) tube_plantlets occurred in the process of transplantation and acclimation were investigated in this paper. Before transplantation and acclimation, leaves of the tube_plantlets were apparently thin and the vascular system was not well developed, and the net photosynthetic rate of the plantlet was low, but the stomatal conductance and transpiration rate of the leaves were relatively high. At the early stage of transplantation, the tube_plantlet was vulnerable to relative low humidity and intense light that could resulted in wilting of leaves due to excess water loss. During the acclimatization, the net photosynthetic rate of the plantlets increased progressively and the stomatal conductance and transpiration rate decreased gradually, accompanied by an increase in the thickness of the leaves and the size of leaf epidermal cells, together with the fully development of vascular system, palisade and spongy tissues in leaves. The results indicated that the acclimatization could greatly improve the photoautotrophic ability of the tube_plantlets, bring anatomical changes to the plantlets in order to avoid excessive leaf dehydration for the gradual adaptation of the plantlets to natural environment.
