Time-dependent distribution of sulphur, sulphate and glutathione in wheat tissues and grain as affected by three sulphur fertilization levels and late S fertilization

Sulphur (S) fertilization has beneficial effects on yield and protein composition of mature wheat kernels. However, to understand the impact of S fertilization on storage protein composition, synthesis of S-containing compounds and their distribution during grain development has to be examined. A pot experiment with Triticum aestivum cultivar Türkis under three S fertilization levels (0 g, 0.1 g und 0.2 g S per pot) and a late S fertilization level at ear emergence was carried out. Stalk and leaves, flag leaves, ears and kernels were harvested separately during grain development at ear emergence, milk ripeness and maturity, and analyzed for elemental S, sulphate, glutathione, and protein concentration. Sulphate is the major S compound in stalk, leaf and ears at the start of grain development, whereas glutathione is more important for synthesis of S-containing proteins in the grain. The discrepancy of S concentration comparing low and high S fertilization became obvious after milk ripeness. The N/S ratios in ears at ear emergence and milk ripeness reflected the later N/S ratio in mature grain. Late S fertilization increased sulphate concentrations in the flag leaf within a short period of about two weeks at ear emergence. Late S fertilization prevented S deficiency in late stages of wheat growth and further enabled equal concentrations of S, glutathione and protein in all wheat organs compared to an S application only at sowing.     

Changes in accumulation of seed nitrogen compounds in maize under conditions of sulphur deficiency

Maize ( Zea mays L., hybrid INRA 260) was grown in the greenhouse with mineral nutrition of different sulphate concentrations. Mature seeds from these plants were compared for their free amino acid and protein N forms. For the most S-deficient sample, the Asx (asparagine + aspartic acid) content increased by 30% as compared with control, while methionine and cysteine decreased (by 25 and 30%, respectively), as well as glycine, lysine, histidine, arginine and tryptophan. In seeds lowest in S the non-protein N to total N ratio was 77% higher than in the control. Free asparagine dominated in starved seeds (50 mol % of total free amino acids) and was ten-fold more concentrated than in the control, where proline was the predominant free amino acid. Thus the Asx of non-protein N reached 28% of the total mol Asx of the whole starved seed. Altered S nutrition had virtually no effect on the amino acid composition of the main protein fractions, but it significantly changed their ratios. Zeins, which are poor in S-containing amino acids, showed 25% higher level than in seeds supplied with normal S. As a counterbalance, two glutelin subfractions rich in S-containing amino acids, decreased by 36–71% under limiting S nutrition.
It is concluded that the plant reacts against S deficiency by modifying its N metabolism. Significant accumulation occurred of free asparagine, which is the main form of N transportation. The biosynthesis of seed storage protein occurred through the accumulation of the highest possible protein quantity allowed by the available S-containing amino acids, i.e. proteins low in S-containing amino acids were preferentially synthesized.     

分期施氮与CO2浓度升高对小麦光合及其物质积累和产量的互作效应

采用开顶式气室和盆栽方法,以冬小麦品种‘小偃22’为材料,探讨了分期施氮与CO2浓度升高对小麦抽穗期和灌浆中期旗叶光合、地上部物质积累和产量的互作效应.结果显示:(1)不施氮条件下CO2浓度升高对小麦旗叶叶绿素含量(SPAD)和可溶性蛋白含量、光合能力、地上部花后干物质和氮素累积量、籽粒产量的影响不明显(P>0.05)或产生显著负效应;在施氮(300mg/kg土)条件下各指标均不同程度增加,且大多数达到显著水平.(2)与氮肥全部基施相比,分期施氮时CO2浓度升高使灌浆期旗叶光合能力、地上部花后干物质和氮素累积以及产量增加的幅度较大,其中以播前、返青期和孕穗期施氮比例为5∶3∶2时最明显.研究表明,适当分期施氮可能更有利于发挥CO2浓度升高对冬小麦的增产作用.     

猪场废水施用对直播稻磷素吸收利用与氮磷生态化学计量的影响

以直播稻为对象,在上海农场进行了猪场处理废水基肥和穗肥不同用量组合的田间试验,研究猪场废水对水稻磷养分吸收利用与氮磷生态化学计量的影响。结果表明:施用猪场处理废水对直播水稻干物质积累、植株磷含量有显著影响。水稻拔节期、齐穗期和成熟期干物质积累量以及产量随废水施用量增加而增加;拔节期、齐穗期和成熟期植株、秸秆及籽粒含磷量与废水用量皆呈显著正相关;不同施肥处理在整个生育期水稻植株N∶P为3.13~5.10,在拔节期、齐穗期、成熟期分别为3.13~4.83、3.42~4.35、3.98~5.10,总体上以齐穗期N∶P值较低;成熟期秸秆N∶P值变动较大(4.30~6.57),而籽粒变化较小(3.85~4.37);齐穗期植株、成熟期秸秆、籽粒和植株的N∶P值与废水施用总量皆呈显著正相关,表明废水施用对直播稻氮素吸收的促进作用大于磷素。     

Protein and free amino acids in field-grown cowpea seeds as affected by water stress at various growth stages

Summary This study was undertaken to evaluate water stress effects during vegetative, flowering, and podfilling stages of cowpea plants (Vigna unguiculata L.) grown under natural field conditions in southern California on seed yield and protein and free amino acid content of the cowpea seeds. The lowest concentration of N was found in the seeds of the control treatment plants while the seed yield from these treatments was the highest as compared with the N concentration and yield of seeds from plants subjected to water stress during flowering and podfilling stages. The concentration of N in the seeds was inversely related to the seed dry weight yield. Protein arginine,-threonine,-serine,-cystine,-valine,-methionine, and-isoleucine were significantly affected by water stress at the three growth stages. There was no consistent pattern in the effect of water stress on the individual amino acids. The sum of protein amino acids in the cowpea seeds was not significantly influenced by the various treatments since some of the protein amino acids increased and others decreased producing an averaging effect on the figures comprising the sums of the amino acids. Water stress during the flowering and pod-filling stages increased the free amino acid pool, and at the same time, inhibited incorporation of the amino acids into the protein chain-thus lowering the protein amino acid fraction simultaneously. With the exception of methionine plus cystine, the essential amino acids in the seeds were present at concentrations equal to or greater than recommended by the World Health Organization and FAO. It is of particular importance to note that the concentration of lysine in the cowpeas was substantially higher than that found in wheat grain. It is also important to note that the amount of essential amino acids per gram of protein was not measurably affected by the water stress treatments during any of the growth stages.     

全膜覆土下施有机肥对春小麦旗叶碳氮比、光合特性和产量的影响

于2016和2017年,以春小麦品种‘陇春27'为试验材料,在甘肃省中部半干旱雨养农业区设置定位试验,分析全膜覆土平作穴播(PMS)、全膜覆土平作穴播+有机肥(PMO)、裸地平作穴播(CK)3个处理春小麦抽穗至灌浆阶段土壤水分与群体冠层温度、净光合速率(P_n)、气孔导度(g_s)、蒸腾速率(T_r)、旗叶C/N、旗叶全氮之间的相互关系,探讨不同处理对产量及其构成要素的影响。结果表明: 施用有机肥可提高小麦生育中后期土壤含水量,PMO抽穗至灌浆阶段0～300 cm土层土壤贮水量较PMS和CK分别提高4.6%和8.5%,群体冠层温度分别降低0.1～1.3 ℃和1.4～4.9 ℃,P_n分别提高9.3%和29.7%,g_s分别提高30.9%和103.8%,T_r分别提高5.1%和55.0%,全氮含量分别提高6.6%和18.9%,C/N分别降低6.4%和22.8%。收获后,PMO较PMS和CK显著促进穗粒数和千粒重增加,籽粒产量分别提高9.1%和53.7%。抽穗至灌浆阶段旗叶P_n和g_s与C/N呈负相关性;C/N与籽粒产量呈显著负相关。因此,半干旱区全膜覆土穴播条件下施有机肥可提高春小麦抽穗至灌浆阶段土壤含水量,促进旗叶光合作用,有利于降低生理干旱胁迫强度和旗叶氮吸收同化限制,促进穗粒数和粒重增加,使产量提升。     

播期对春小麦生长发育及产量的影响

为了给陇中半干旱区春小麦高产栽培提供依据,2010年在甘肃定西进行了春小麦分期播种试验,并对不同播期条件下春小麦生长发育及产量形成进行了分析。结果表明:随着播期的推迟,春小麦播种-抽穗期日数减少、全生育期明显缩短;5月下旬之前,越早播种的春小麦LAI越大,5月下旬之后,播种愈晚春小麦LAI越大。早播春小麦LAI峰值靠前,晚播峰值滞后;6月下旬之前,播期早的春小麦叶绿素含量高于播期晚的,6月下旬之后播期愈早叶绿素含量下降愈快;不同播期春小麦群体生长率和净同化率在孕穗-抽穗期后差异显著,表现为3月18日播期最大,4月7日播期最小。各播期干物质累积在拔节期后表现为快速递增趋势。在拔节期前,早播处理的干物质积累速率较慢。随着播期的推迟,单株干物质最大积累速率出现时间提前,籽粒最大灌浆速率出现时间推迟,千粒重表现为先升后降;灌浆3个阶段各参数受播期影响比较显著;早播春小麦产量最高。     

Influence of phosphorus and sulfur nutrition on composition ofClitoria ternatea L.

Summary A greenhouse experiment on a silt loam surface soil (Typic Hapludult) was done to investigate effects of P and S on yield, quality aspects and sugar reserves in the tropical forage legumeClitoria ternatea L. Four levels of P and two N treatments (NH₄NO₃ vs symbiotic) were arranged in a factorial design with four replications. After the first cutting two levels of S were imposed on this design.Phosphorus enhanced dry matter yield in the first cutting. Its effect was smaller in the second cutting. Amount of P required to produce maximum plant yield dropped from 200 mg/kg soil (or more) at the first cutting to 50–100 mg/kg at the second. Added S improved growth at suboptimal levels of P. At optimal P and S, symbiotic and +N plants yielded alike.Phosphorus and S fertilization caused several changes in plant composition. Nitrogen concentration was raised by S treatment and lowered by P. Combined addition of P and S lowered plant nitrate content. In symbiotic plants, soluble sugar concentrations were higher than in N-treated plants, and were increased by P and S treatment. In N-treated plants, neither P nor S increased reducing sugar concentration, but they increased total sugar.     

Free and protein amino acids,and nutrient concentrations in wheat grain as affected by phosphorus nutrition at various salinity levels

Summary The effects of P nutrition under various salinity levels on the protein, amino acids, and nutrients in mature wheat grain were studied. Mexican dwarf wheat (Triticum aestivum L. var Inia) was grown to maturity in solution cultures with variable concentrations of P (0.5-, 5-, 25- and 50 mg P/l) in combination with NaCl at concentrations producing osmotic potentials (_s) of –0.4-, –1.4-, –2.4- and –4.4-bars. All other essential nutrients were present in adequate concentrations for vigorous plant growth.Increasing levels of P in the nutrient solutions tended to decrease the grain yield, N, Cl, protein-glutamic acid,-proline,-leucine,-glycine, and-serine, while P, K, Mg, Zn, Mn and Cu in the grain were increased. The sum of all protein amino acids in the grain decreased as the concentration of P increased in the nutrient solution. The effect of P on the individual and sum of amino acids tended to show peak amounts at the 5.0 mg P/l treatment level.Increased levels of salinity significantly reduced grain yield, N, proteinglutamic acid,-proline,-leucine,-glycine,-serine,-aspartic acid,-alanine, and-phenylalanine in the grain. The sum of the protein amino acids (mol/g dry wt.) was decreased in the grain from plants grown at –4.4 bars salinity level, but not in the grain from plants receiving less saline treatments. The concentrations of free amino acids: serine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, alanine, and arginine were lower in the grain produced at the –4.4 bars salinity than at –0.4 bars salinity level. The sum of free amino acids (mol/g dry wt.) in the grain were decreased at the highest salinity level as compared with concentrations found for grain produced at lower salinity levels.There were some interactions found between P and salinity on the protein amino acids and nutrients in the grains.The amounts of essential amino acids expressed in mg/g of protein were not significantly affected by the increasing levels of P and salinity in the nutrient solution and they were found in adequate or greater amounts than those recommended by the World Health Organization and FAO.     

极端晚播对小麦籽粒产量、氮素吸收利用和籽粒蛋白质含量的影响

为探索小麦高产高效优质生产技术途径,指导小麦晚播生产实践,2012年10月—2014年6月,以弱春性小麦偃展4110和半冬性小麦矮抗58为材料进行连续2年的田间定位试验,设置了常规适播(10月中旬、240万株·hm^-2)和极端晚播(11月中旬、600万株·hm^-2)两种栽培模式,研究了极端晚播对0～40 cm土层土壤硝态氮含量、小麦氮素吸收利用、产量、籽粒蛋白质含量和氮素吸收效率的影响.结果表明: 与常规适播处理相比,两个生长季极端晚播处理均使拔节和开花期0～40 cm土壤硝态氮含量显著提高,从而促进拔节后小麦植株氮素吸收积累,成熟期穗部氮素的分配比例也得到提高,最终显著提高小麦籽粒蛋白质含量和偃展4110的蛋白质产量、氮素吸收效率,但对籽粒产量的影响因品种而异.其中,极端晚播处理使偃展4110的籽粒产量显著提高,而矮抗58的籽粒产量却显著降低.因此,极端晚播栽培模式可维持小麦拔节后的土壤氮供应,有利于提高小麦氮素吸收效率,从而提高小麦籽粒产量和蛋白质含量,是灌区小麦高产优质的有效途径之一.     

The export of amino acid in the phloem is altered in wheat plants lacking the short arm of chromosome 7B

Grain protein content is one of the major determinants of the baking and nutritional quality of wheat. It has previously been reported that the ditelosomic line of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) CSDT7BL, where the short arm of chromosome 7B is missing, shows a lower grain protein concentration than the normal line, but a similar grain yield. In the present paper the growth and nitrogen (N) metabolism of wheat plants cv. Chinese Spring (CS) and its ditelosomic line CSDT7BL were compared. When plants were grown to maturity in pots with different N supplements, the wild-type line showed a higher grain protein concentration and a lower straw N concentration than the ditelosomic line at every N level analysed, suggesting a deficiency in the N remobilization capacity. When 15-d-old plants were grown in a growth cabinet in pots with sand, and supplied with nutrient solutions of different nitrate concentrations, the ditelosomic line showed no differences in N uptake per unit of root dry weight, nitrate reductase activity, nitrate, total N concentration or free amino acid concentration. However, the ditelosomic line showed a decreased capacity to export amino acids in the phloem under high N, independently of the N source. This deficiency was also observed under dark-induced senescence. The diminished export of amino acids to the phloem was principally caused by a decrease in the export of Glu, Asp, and Gln. It is suggested that the decrease in grain protein concentration in the ditelosomic line is a consequence of defective export in the phloem of these amino acids.     

水分胁迫对水稻籽粒蛋白质积累及营养品质的影响

以生产上广泛使用的水稻(Oryza sativa)品种‘汕优63’、‘扬稻6号’和‘武育粳3号’为材料,研究了水分胁迫对结实期水稻籽粒蛋白质积累及营养品质的影响。结果表明:正常施氮水平下,花后10~20 d的水分胁迫提高了谷氨酰胺合成酶(Glutamine synthetase,GS)和谷氨酸合酶(Glutamate synthase,GOGAT)活性,提高了籽粒自身利用无机氮合成氨基酸的能力,从而利于籽粒内蛋白质的积累,而高氮水平下,水分胁迫降低了籽粒自身合成氨基酸的能力。以重量为基数的蛋白质含有率在整个灌浆过程中呈“V”型消长,正常施氮水平下,水分胁迫明显提高了花后15 d至成熟期蛋白质含有率,而高氮水平下,水分胁迫处理的蛋白质含有率明显低于水层灌溉。与水层灌溉相比,水分胁迫提高了正常施氮水平下精米中醇溶蛋白和谷蛋白含量,但却明显降低了高氮水平下精米中醇溶蛋白和谷蛋白含量。水分胁迫对稻米中赖氨酸含量的影响因品种、植株的氮营养水平的不同而不同,水分胁迫显著降低了两种氮肥水平下‘汕优63’中赖氨酸含量,但却明显提高‘扬稻6号’中赖氨酸含量;而‘武育粳3号’于两种氮肥水平下表现恰好相反,正常施氮水平下赖氨酸含量略有升高;而高氮水平下赖氨酸含量明显降低。     

Uptake and use patterns of nitrogen from urea,oxamide, and isobutylidene diurea by rice plants

Summary Two¹⁵N-labelled slow-release nitrogen (N) sources, oxamide and isobutylidene diurea (IBDU), each at two particle sizes, and¹⁵N-labelled urea were compared at two rates as sources of N for rice (Oryza sativa) under two watering regimes which simulated a transplant (continuous flood, CF) and a direct-seeded (A/F) system of paddy rice culture. Highest grain yields were obtained from −8+10-mesh oxamide particles applied at the rate of 2,000 mg of N/5 kg of soil, CF series; this yield was slightly higher than that obtained from −3+4-mesh oxamide, A/F series. Incubating the N fertilizers in moist (22% water) soil for 21 days immediately before flooding and transplanting rice greatly reduced N supply because of nitrification during the preflood period, followed by denitrification after flooding. This resulted in less plant uptake of N and less grain yield from urea, fine oxamide and IBDU, A/F series. For coarse oxamide, N release during the preflood period resulted in higher N uptake and grain yield in the A/F rather than in the corresponding CF series. The pattern of fertilizer N uptake by rice plants was affected by kind of fertilizer, particle size of oxamide and IBDU, and watering regime. Uptake of fertilizer N generally paralleled uptake of soil N throughout the growth period. Plant tops continued to accumulate some N during the period of grain filling, but much of the N in plant tops was translocated to the grain after heading. There was a large decrease in dry weight, N content, and¹⁵N content of tops after heading. Root weight and N content increased rapidly at first, and then at a diminishing rate until maturity. Unexplained N deficits occurred in the CF series (14–23% of the N applied, depending on N rate and source), and in the A/F series for IBDU (37–43% of the N applied).     

不同氮效率水稻生育后期根表和根际土壤硝化特征

通过田间试验研究了不同氮效率粳稻品种4007(氮高效)和Elio(氮低效)生育后期在N0(0 kgN hm-2)、N180(180 kgN hm-2)和N300(300 kgN hm-2)水平下根表、根际和土体土壤pH值、铵态氮(NH+4-N)和硝态氮(NO-3-N)含量、硝化强度和氨氧化细菌(AOB)数量.结果表明无论是齐穗期、灌浆期还是成熟期,根表土壤pH值均显著低于根际和土体土壤.土壤pH值范围在5.95至6.84之间变化.土壤NH+4-N含量随水稻生长显著下降,且随施氮量增加而显著增加.根表土壤NH+4-N有明显亏缺区,且随距水稻根表距离增加,NH+4-N含量逐渐升高.土壤NO-3-N含量随水稻生长显著增加,施氮处理均显著高于不施氮处理,但N180和N300处理差异不显著.NO-3-N含量表现为根际>土体>根表.水稻根表和根际土壤硝化强度随水稻生长显著下降,而土体土壤硝化强度随时间延长小幅增加.施氮显著提高4007水稻根表土壤在齐穗和收获期硝化强度以及Elio在齐穗期根际硝化强度,但在施氮处理N180和N300中无显著差异.在整个采样期间,土壤硝化强度均表现为根际>根表>土体.水稻根表和根际AOB数量随水稻生长而显著降低,而土体土壤AOB数量无显著变化.例如,根表土壤AOB数量在齐穗期、灌浆期和收获期分别为16.7×105、8.77×105个g-1 dry soil和8.01×105个g-1 dry soil.根表和根际土壤AOB数量无显著差异,但二者显著高于土体土壤AOB数量.就两个氮效率水稻品种而言,土壤pH值基本无差异.4007土壤NH+4-N含量均显著高于Elio.在齐穗期水稻根表、根际和土体土壤NO-3-N含量在N180水平下均表现为Elio显著高于4007.而在灌浆期和收获期,水稻根表、根际和土体土壤则表现为4007显著高于Elio.在所有采样期,两个水稻品种土体土壤硝化强度和AOB数量在3个施氮量下均无显著差异.Elio根表和根际土壤硝化强度和AOB数量在水稻灌浆期之前一直显著高于4007,而在灌浆期之后则显著低于4007,且最终产量和氮素利用率(NUE)显著低于4007,这可能是由于4007灌浆期后硝化作用强,根际产生的NO-3-N含量高,从而4007根吸收NO-3-N的量也高造成的.因此水稻灌浆期和收获期根表和根际硝化作用以及AOB与水稻高产及氮素高效利用密切相关.     

Effects of tillage and nitrogen addition rate on nitrogen metabolism,grain yield and protein content in wheat in lime concretion black soil region

Aims The purpose of this study was to determine a suitable combination of tillage method and nitrogen rate to improve wheat (Triticum aestivum) yield and protein content in lime concretion black soil.
Methods Under the field experimental conditions, three tillage methods (subsoiling and rotary tillage, rotary tillage, and conventional tillage) were used as the main treatments, and four nitrogen application rates (0, 120, 225 and 330 kg·hm^–2) were used as sub-treatments. Nitrogen assimilation after jointing stage, grain yield, and protein content were determined in wheat plants to study the effects of different tillage methods and nitrogen application rate on these variables.
Important findings Results showed that the glutamine synthetase (GS) activity, free amino acid content, and soluble protein content in wheat plants initially increased and then decreased during growth. The peaks of GS activity, free amino acid content, and soluble protein content occurred 10 days after flowering in the subsoiling treatment with 225 or 330 kg·hm^–2 nitrogen application rate, and at the flowering stage for other treatment combinations. Compared with the conventional tillage and rotary tillage, the bulk density of 10 to 40 cm soil in the subsoiling treatment was significantly reduced, and the soil total porosity and root dry weight were significantly increased. Tillage method and nitrogen application rate had a significant impact on grain yield and protein content in wheat plants. Grain yield and protein content were highest in the subsoiling treatment. Regardless of the tillage method, the grain yield and protein content both increased with increasing nitrogen application rate. The grain yield in the subsoiling treatment was highest with nitrogen application rate at 330 kg·hm^–2, whereas the outputs of conventional tillage and rotary tillage were peaked at nitrogen application rate of 225 kg·hm^–2. The grain proteincontent was highest at nitrogen application rate of 225 kg·hm^–2 under the three tillage methods. Thus, subsoiling with optimum nitrogen rate should be promoted in lime concretion black soil. Subsoiling increased grain yield and protein quality by improving soil conditions and the absorption of root systems for soil nitrogen.     

耕作方式及施氮量对砂姜黑土区小麦氮代谢及籽粒产量和蛋白质含量的影响

为明确砂姜黑土区小麦(Triticum aestivum)产量和品质形成的耕作方式及施氮量最优组合, 在大田试验条件下, 以深松、旋耕和常规耕作3种耕作方式为主区, 0、120、225、330 kg·hm^-2 4个施氮量为副区, 研究了不同耕作方式及施氮量组合对小麦拔节后氮代谢、籽粒产量和蛋白质含量的影响。结果表明, 随着生育期的推进, 叶片谷氨酰胺合成酶活性、游离氨基酸含量和可溶性蛋白含量均呈先升后降的趋势, 深松方式配合中高氮处理的峰值在花后10天, 而常规耕作和旋耕的4个施氮处理以及深松的低氮处理峰值多在开花期。与常规耕作和旋耕相比, 深松耕作显著降低了10-40 cm的土壤容重, 提高了土壤总空隙度和根干质量, 有利于中后期根系氮素吸收。耕作方式和施氮量对籽粒产量和蛋白质含量影响显著, 均以深松方式最高。3种耕作方式下小麦产量和蛋白质含量均随施氮量增加而增加, 籽粒产量以深松方式配合330 kg·hm^-2施氮量最高, 而常规耕作和旋耕方式的产量在施氮量为225 kg·hm^-2时达到最大。3种耕作方式下籽粒蛋白质含量均以施氮225 kg·hm^-2最高。因此, 在砂姜黑土区宜采用深松耕作方式配合适宜的施氮量, 以改善土壤条件, 促进根系氮素吸收, 延长叶片功能期, 达到产量与蛋白品质提升之目的。     

秸秆还田下施氮量对稻茬晚播小麦土壤氮素盈亏的影响

在大田条件下,研究了不同施氮量对秸秆还田下晚播小麦土壤矿质氮含量变化、秸秆氮释放及小麦产量的影响.结果表明： 0～50 cm土层土壤矿质氮含量随着施氮量的增加而显著增加,随生育进程的推进,N₂₇₀和N₃₆₀处理下层土壤的矿质氮显著积累.秸秆氮素释放量随施氮量增加而增加,越冬至拔节期氮释放量最低,拔节至成熟期释放量占总释氮量的50%以上.全生育期施氮量超过180 kg·hm^-2,土壤氮素开始出现显著的盈余,播种至拔节期氮素表观盈余量显著高于拔节至成熟期.籽粒产量在270 kg·hm^-2施氮量下最高, 更高施氮量下氮素利用效率显著降低.施氮量为270 kg·hm^-2时,有利于秸秆全量还田下晚播小麦兼顾产量和生态效益.     

Yield of submerged paddy and uptake of Zn,P and N as affected by liming and Zn fertilizers

The effects of CaCO₃, Zn sources and levels on the yield of submerged paddy and uptake of Zn, P and N to paddy were studied in green-house at Haryana Agricultural University, Hissar. Powdered CaCO₃ was mixed at 0,4 and 8 per cent and Zn was added at 0,5 and 10 ppm through ZnSO₄.7H₂O, ZnO and Zn EDTA separately. Dry weight at tillering and heading and grain and straw at maturity decreased significantly with 4 and 8 per cent CaCO₃ in comparison to the control. Increasing Zn application increased the dry weight and grain yield. Zn EDTA gave highest yield of paddy followed by ZnSO₄.7H₂O and ZnO.Increasing the application of CaCO₃ from 0–8 per cent decreased the concentration and uptake of Zn and increasing Zn application from 0–10 ppm increased concentration and uptake of Zn in paddy at tillering, heading and maturity. Zn EDTA gave the highest concentration and uptake of Zn followed by ZnSO₄.7H₂O and ZnO. There was interaction between Zn sources and CaCO₃.The concentration and uptake of N and P in paddy dry matter at tillering and heading and straw and grain at maturity decreased as compared to control with increasing CaCO₃ addition. The concentration and uptake of N increased and that of P decreased in paddy dry matter straw and grain with increasing Zn application. The highest concentration of N was observed with ZnO, followed by ZnSO₄.7H₂O and Zn EDTA. But highest uptake of N was observed with Zn EDTA followed by ZnSO₄.7H₂O and ZnO. As regards concentration and uptake of P, it was highest with ZnO followed by ZnSO₄.7H₂O and Zn EDTA.     

Effect of irrigation treatments upon the chemical constituents ofHibiscus sabdariffa L.

Summary The effects of Se and P on the dry matter yield and chemical composition of Raya (Brassica juncea Cos. var. R.L. 18) were studied in the green-house. The dry matter yield in P treated and untreated pots increased with Se application upto 2.5 ppm. With further increase in Se dose upto 10 ppm, dry matter yield decreased. The increase in P dose from 0 to 50 ppm increased dry matter yield in all Se treated and untreated pots but 100 ppm P rather showed decrease in dry matter yield as compared to 50 ppm P.The Se concentration increased by about 100 fold with the application of 10 ppm Se over 0 ppm Se where P was not added whereas increase was 258 and 336 times when 50 ppm and 100 ppm P was added, respectively. Inorganic, organic and total P increased with increasing Se and P. The increase in inorganic P was more than organic and total P. S and N concentration decreased with increasing Se application and increased with P application.Crude protein showed the same behaviour as N. The total sulphur-containing amino acids (which ranged from 39 to 49% of crude protein) and individual sulphur-containing amino acids like methionine (16.9 tot 20%) cysteine (9.8 to 13%) and cystine (12.3 to 15.9%) decreased with the increasing selenium but increased with increasing phosphorus. N/S ratio in the plant showed significant negative correlation with total sulphur-containing amino acids (r=–0.940^**), methionine (r=–0.951^**), cysteine (r=–0.929^**) and cystine (r=–0.920^*) whereas total sulphur in the plant showed positive significant correlation with methionine (r=0.805^**), cysteine (r=0.924^**) and cystine (r=0.821^**).     

花前渍水预处理对花后渍水逆境下扬麦9号籽粒产量和品质的影响

以扬麦9号为材料,研究花前渍水预处理对花后渍水逆境下小麦籽粒产量和品质的影响。结果表明,与未进行渍水预处理相比,花前渍水预处理提高了小麦植株对花后渍害的抗性,生物产量、收获指数和千粒重显著提高,进而显著提高了籽粒产量;花前渍水预处理显著提高花后氮素积累量及其对籽粒氮素的贡献率,降低了花前贮藏氮素运转量及其对籽粒氮素的贡献率,进而引起籽粒球蛋白含量提高,但显著降低了清蛋白、醇溶蛋白、谷蛋白和全蛋白质含量、以及干湿面筋含量和沉降值;花前渍水预处理还提高了籽粒直链淀粉和总淀粉含量和降落值,降低了支/直链淀粉比,显著提高了面粉峰值粘度、低谷粘度、崩解值、最终粘度、回冷值和峰值时间,但对糊化温度无显著影响。
