2-[3-(2-Thioxopyrrolidin-3-ylidene)methyl]-tryptophan,a Novel Yellow Pigment in Salted Radish Roots

The structure of the yellow pigment found in salted radish roots was studied. It was found that 1-(2-thioxopyrrolidin-3-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-β-carboline-3- carboxylic acid (TPCC) was unstable under neutral pH, and was easily converted into the yellow pigment. The yellow pigment was isolated and identified as 2-[3-(2-thioxopyrrolidin-3-ylidene)methyl]-tryptophan (TPMT) by IR, MS, ¹H-, and ¹³C-NMR spectroscopy. In addition, we proved that this compound was the main yellow pigment in salted radish roots. This compound induced no mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100, either with or without prior activation.     

2-[3-(2-Thioxopyrrolidin-3-ylidene)methyll-tryptophan,a novel yellow pigment in salted radish roots

The structure of the yellow pigment found in salted radish roots was studied. It was found that 1-(2-thioxopyrrolidin-3-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-beta-carboline-3-carboxylic acid (TPCC) was unstable under neutral pH, and was easily converted into the yellow pigment. The yellow pigment was isolated and identified as 2-[3-(2-thioxopyrrolidin-3-ylidene)methyl]-tryptophan (TPMT) by IR, MS, 1H-, and 13C-NMR spectroscopy. In addition, we proved that this compound was the main yellow pigment in salted radish roots. This compound induced no mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100, either with or without prior activation.     

Isolation and Identification of a Novel β-Carboline Derivative in Salted Radish Roots,Raphanus sativus L.

The methanol extract of salted radish roots contains several precursors of yellow pigment. The main compound was isolated by the use of Toyopearl HW-40S column chromatography, and its structure was determined to be 1-(2′-pyrrolidinethion-3′-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-β-carboline-3-carboxylic acid on the basis of an elemental analysis, and IR, UV, FAB-MS and NMR spectroscopy. This compound is presumed to have been the condensation product from the degradation of 4-methylthio-3-butenyl isothiocyanate and l-tryptophan. This carboline compound is considered to play an important role in the formation of the yellow pigment in salted radish roots.     

Photoisomerization of 2-[3-(2-thioxopyrrolidin-3-ylidene)methyl]-tryptophan, a yellow pigment in salted radish roots

The photostability of (E)-2-[3-(2-thioxopyrrolidin-3-ylidene)methyl]-tryptophan ((E)-TPMT), the main yellow pigment in salted radish, was studied. First we analyzed the photoproduct generated from (E)-TPMT under longwave UV irradiation. On the basis of NMR spectroscopy, the photoproduct was identified as Z-configurated TPMT, and isomerization from the Z- to the E-form was reversibly induced by Vis-light irradiation. The optimum wavelength for isomerization from the E- to the Z-form was 360-380 nm, and that for isomerization from the Z- to the E-form was 440-460 nm. The E/Z-ratios in the photostationary state under UV- and Vis-light irradiation conditions were approximately 0.95:1 and 26:1 respectively. The (Z)-isomer was more sensitive to light irradiation than the (E)-isomer in the quantum yield measurement. Yellowing was dependent on the ratio of the (Z)-isomer, because the b(*) and chroma value rose with increases in the (Z)-isomer by the colorimeters. Hence, it is possible that the formation of the (Z)-isomer contribute to the yellow color of takuan-zuke during long salting and fermentation.     

培养条件对西洋参不定根诱导的影响

为了提高西洋参不定根的诱导率和生长速度,该研究以西洋参鲜根为外植体,在基本培养基的基础上优化IBA、碳源、氮源和磷源等营养成分。结果表明:西洋参不定根诱导过程可以明显分为外植体脱分化(愈伤化)、再分化(根形成)和根伸长等三个阶段; MS基本培养基更有利于西洋参不定根的诱导,可能与MS培养基中矿质元素含量高有关;当培养基中IBA浓度达到2 mg·L~(-1)时,外植体表面上不定根分布密度大,诱导率达到(96±3.5)%;培养基中添加蔗糖到30 g·L~(-1)时,不定根的诱导效果最好,但继续提高浓度后不定根变短、直径变粗;培养基中NO_3~-∶NH_4~+和PO_4~(3-)浓度分别为20∶10(总氮量30 mmol·L~(-1))和25.0mmol·L~(-1)时,西洋参不定根诱导率达到最大。结果提示优化培养条件可以显著改善西洋参不定根的诱导和生长,为后续西洋参不定根规模化培养提供理论支持。     

Radish plant behaviour under short-term elevated ozone fumigation

Effects of short-term ozone (O₃) fumigation on radish (Raphanus sativus L.) plants were examined in growth chambers under controlled environment conditions. Plants were exposed to 0 μg/m³ (reference), 80 μg/m³, 160 μg/m³ and 240 μg/m³ O₃ concentrations for 7 h per day for five days. Day/night temperature was 21°C/14°C and photoperiod 16 h. Chlorophyll content was evaluated spectrophotometrically. Chromatographic analysis of saccharides was also undertaken. The results showed that elevated O₃ inhibited the growth of radish rhizocarps, net assimilation rate and biomass accumulation. O₃ induced leaf desiccation, necrosis and premature senescence, but a typical reaction of plants to O₃ stress was the rapid regeneration of new leaves. O₃ inhibited accumulation of carotenoids more than chlorophylls. The higher photosynthetic pigment content in newly generated radish leaves may be regarded as an adaptation of the photosynthetic system to O₃. Leaf saccharide metabolism and incorporation depended on O₃ concentration. Rapid regeneration of new leaves and increased content of photosynthetic pigments is the typical reaction of radish plants to O₃ stress.     

Covalent anthocyanin–flavonol complexes from the violet-blue flowers of Allium ‘Blue Perfume’

Three covalent anthocyanin–flavonol complexes (pigments 1–3) were extracted from the violet-blue flower of Allium ‘Blue Perfume’ with 5% acetic acid-MeOH solution, in which pigment 1 was the dominant pigment. These three pigments are based on delphinidin 3-glucoside as their deacylanthocyanin and were acylated with malonyl kaempferol 3-sophoroside-7-glucosiduronic acid or malonyl-kaempferol 3-p-coumaroyl-tetraglycoside-7-glucosiduronic acid in addition to acylation with acetic acid.By spectroscopic and chemical methods, the structures of these three pigments 1–3 were determined to be: pigment 1, (6^I-O-(delphinidin 3-O-(3^I-O-(acetyl)-β-glucopyranoside^I)))(2^VI-O-(kaempferol 3-O-(2^II-O-(3^III-O-(β-glucopyranosyl^V)-β-glucopyranosyl^III)-4^II-O-(trans-p-coumaroyl)-6^II-O-(β-glucopyranosyl^IV)-β-glucopyranoside^II)-7-O-(β-glucosiduronic acid^VI))) malonate; pigment 2, (6^I-O-(delphinidin 3-O-(3^I-O-(acetyl)-β-glucopyranoside^I)))(2^VI-O-(kaempferol 3-O-(2^II-O-β-glucopyranosyl^III)-β-glucopyranoside^II)-7-O-(β-glucosiduronic acid^VI))); and pigment 3, (6^I-O-(delphinidin 3-O-(3^I-O-(acetyl)-β-glucopyranoside^I)))(2^VI-O-(kaempferol 3-O-(2^II-O-(3^III-O-(β-glucopyranosyl^V)-β-glucopyranosyl^III)-4^II-O-(cis-p-coumaroyl)-6^II-O-(β-glucopyranosyl^IV)-β-glucopyranoside^II)-7-O-(β-glucosiduronic acid^VI))) malonate.The structure of pigment 2 was analogous to that of a covalent anthocyanin–flavonol complex isolated from Allium schoenoprasum where delphinidin was observed in place of cyanidin. The three covalent anthocyanin–flavonol complexes (pigment 1–3) had a stable violet-blue color with three characteristic absorption maxima at 540, 547 and 618 nm in pH 5–6 buffer solution. From circular dichroism measurement of pigment 1 in the pH 6.0 buffer solution, cotton effects were observed at 533 (+), 604 (−) and 638 (−) nm. Based on these results, these covalent anthocyanin–flavonol complexes were presumed to maintain a stable intramolecular association between delphinidin and kaempferol units closely related to that observed between anthocyanin and hydroxycinnamic acid residues in polyacylated anthocyanins. Additionally, an acylated kaempferol glycoside (pigment 4) was isolated from the same flower extract, and its structure was determined to be kaempferol 3-O-sophoroside-7-O-(3-O-(malonyl)-β-glucopyranosiduronic acid).     

Triterpene saponins from Salsola imbricata

Continuing our investigations on medicinal plants of the Egyptian desert, two new triterpene glycoside derivatives, along with three known compounds have been isolated from the roots of Salsola imbricata, a shrub widely growing in Egypt. Their structures have been established as 3-O-β-d-xylopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-O-β-d-glucuronopyranosyl-akebonic acid 28-O-β-d-glucopyranoside and 3-O-β-d-xylopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-O-β-d-glucuronopyranosyl-29-hydroxyoleanolic acid 28-O-β-d-glucopyranoside on the basis of spectroscopic methods including 1D- (¹H, ¹³C) and 2D-NMR (DQF-COSY, HSQC, HMBC) experiments as well as mass spectrometry analysis.     

Regulators of Cell Division in Plant Tissues XIV. The Cytokinin Activities and Metabolism of 6-Acylaminopurines

Certain 6-acylaminopurines have been shown to exhibit activity in several cytokinin bioassays. The active compunds included 6-N,2′-O-dibutyryladenosine 3’:5′-cyclic monophosphate, but adenosine 3′:5′-cyclic monophosphate was inactive. The metabolites formed from [2,8-³H] 6-benzoylaminopurine by radish seedlings and excised radish cotyledons were investigated. When compared with zeatin, this amide showed considerable stability in vivo. Conversion to 6-benzylaminopurine and its riboside was not detected but slight degradation to adenine was indicated. The principal metabolite was an unidentified compund.     

Polar transport of kinetin in tissues of radish

Polar transport of kinetin-8-¹⁴C occurred in segments of petioles, hypocotyls, and roots of radish (Raphanus sativus L.). The polarity was basipetal in petioles and hypocotyls and acropetal in roots. In segments excised from seedlings with fully expanded cotyledons, indole-3-acetic acid was required for polarity to develop. In hypocotyl segments isolated at this stage, basipetal and acropetal movements were equal during the first 12 hours of auxin treatment after which time acropetal movement declined. Pretreatment with auxin eliminated this delay in the appearance of polarity. In hypocotyl segments excised from seedlings with expanding cotyledons, exogenous auxin was unnecessary for polarity. Potassium cyanide abolished polarity at both stages of growth by allowing increased acropetal movement. The rate of accumulation of kinetin in receiver blocks was greater than the in vivo increase in cytokinin content of developing radish roots.     

Transglycosylation to Hesperidin by Cyclodextrin Glucanotransferase from an Alkalophilic Bacillus Species in Alkaline pH and Properties of Hesperidin Glycosides

Cyclodextrin glucanotransferase [1,4-α-d-glucan 4-α-d-(1,4-glucano)-transferase, cyclizing; CGTase, EC 2.4.1.19] from an alkalophilic Bacillus species produced hesperidin monoglucoside and a series of its oligoglucosides by the transglycosylation reaction with hesperidin as an acceptor and soluble starch as a donor. The formation of the glycosides was more effective at alkaline pHs than at neutral or acidic pHs, because of higher solubility of the acceptor.

The structure of the purified monoglucoside was identified as 4^G-α-d-glucopyranosyl hesperidin by FAB-MS, α-, β-glucosidase and glucoamylase treatments, and methylation analysis.

The solubility of both hesperidin mono and diglucoside in water was about 300 times higher than that of hesperidin, and they were found to have a stabilizing effect on the yellow pigment crocin, from fruits of Gardenia jasminoides, against ultraviolet radiation.     

Effect of nitrogen stress and abscisic acid on nitrate absorption and transport in barley and tomato

The potential of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) roots for net NO ₃ ^- absorption increased two-to five fold within 2 d of being deprived of NO ₃ ^- supply. Nitrogen-starved barley roots continued to maintain a high potential for NO ₃ ^- absorption, whereas NO ₃ ^- absorption by tomato roots declined below control levels after 10 d of N starvation. When placed in a 0.2 mM NO ₃ ^- solution, roots of both species transported more NO ₃ ^- and total solutes to the xylem after 2 d of N starvation than did N-sufficient controls. However, replenishment of root NO ₃ ^- stores took precedence over NO ₃ ^- transport to the xylem. Consequently, as N stress became more severe, transport of NO ₃ ^- and total solutes to the xylem declined, relative to controls. Nitrogen stress caused an increase in hydraulic conductance (L _p) and exudate volume (J _v) in barley but decrased these parameters in tomato. Nitrogen stress had no significant effect upon abscisic acid (ABA) levels in roots of barley or flacca (a low-ABA mutant) tomato, but prevented an agerelated decline in ABA in wild-type tomato roots. Applied ABA had the same effect upon barley and upon the wild type and flacca tomatoes: L _p and J _v were increased, but NO ₃ ^- absorption and NO ₃ ^- flux to the xylem were either unaffected or sometimes inhibited. We conclude that ABA is not directly involved in the normal changes in NO ₃ ^- absorption and transport that occur with N stress in barley and tomato, because (1) the root ABA level was either unaffected by N stress (barley and flacca tomato) or changed, after the greatest changes in NO ₃ ^- absorption and transport and L _p had been observed (wild-type tomato); (2) changes in NO ₃ ^- absorption/transport characteristics either did not respond to applied ABA, or, if they did, they changed in the direction opposite to that predicted from changes in root ABA with N stress; and (3) the flacca tomato (which produces very little ABA in response to N stress) responded to N stress with very similar changes in NO ₃ ^- transport to those observed in the wild type.Abbreviation and symbols ABA abscisic acid - J_v exudate volume - L_p root hydraulic conductance     

A fluorescent compound in oat root plasma membrane

Homogenates of 7-day-old oat (Avena sativa L. cv. Brighton) roots were highly fluorescent (excitation and emission maxima around 360 and 440 nm, respectively). Less than ¹/₁₀ as much fluorescence per g fresh weight was found in oat shoots or in wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Drabant) roots or shoots. Most of the fluorescence of oat roots was found in the soluble fraction (150 000g supernatant). However, some could be detected in the plasma membrane fraction (excitation and emission maxima 365 and 417 nm, respectively), which contained a 3-fold higher fluorescence per mg protein than the homogenate. Growth of oat or wheat in a medium containing, 10-^?5M scopoletin (6-methoxy-7-hy-droxy coumarin), a fluorescent compound previously reported to be present in both wheat and oat roots, caused the disappearance of scopoletin from the medium (proportional to the amount of roots) and the appearance of increased fluorescence in the root homogenates but not in the shoot homogenates. In both oat and wheat roots ail of the extra fluorescence was recovered in the soluble fraction and at least in wheat it consisted of unconverted scopoletin. The concentration of scopoletin in wheat roots grown in 10-^?5M scopoletin was around 50 nmol (g fresh weight)^?1, or about five times the concentration in the growth medium. Scopoletin in the growth medium (10-^?5M) or in the assays (up to 10-^?4M) did not affect Mg²⁺-, Mg²⁺+K⁺- or Ca²⁺-ATPase activities in wheat or oat roots. The fluorescence properties of the oat plasma membrane were different from those of authentic scopoletin. Either the surroundings modify the fluorescence of membrane-associated scopoletin or the endogenous fluorescent compound is not scopoletin but a glycoside-derivative of scopoletin or some completely unrelated compound.     

Localization of the yellow pigment formed in roots of gramineous plants colonized by arbuscular fungi

Summary Many plants form yellow coloured roots when colonized by arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. In maize, a yellow pigment is first visible as small droplets in parenchyma cells of roots in the vicinity of arbuscules, 3–4 weeks after mycorrhizal colonization. During the course of the development of the plants, the yellow pigment spreads all over the cells of the cortex (with the exception of the exodermis) and of the endodermis, whereas the other stelar elements remain uncoloured. Other gramineous plants (wheat, barley, millet) show the same pattern of pigment formation. In contrast, the deposition of this pigment is not detected in roots ofTagetes, garden bean, onion, or leek. Weak yellow fluorescence is also seen in the fungal structures, particularly in the arbuscules of the investigated probes. This is, however, clearly different from the intense yellow colour of the pigment formed in root cells of grasses. The yellow pigment is even detected in such cells which are never colonized by fungal structures (e.g., endodermal cells). A major constituent of the yellow pigment of AM-colonized root cells has been identified as a carotenoid with 14 carbon atoms and two carboxylic groups and termed mycorradicin. This carotenoid is likely deposited in the vacuoles of root cells as a result of the colonization specifically by arbuscular fungi.     

Response of Raphanus sativus to the auxin precursor,L-tryptophan applied to soil

Soil microorganisms are capable of producing auxins in the presence of the physiological precursor, L-tryptophan (L-TRP). This study was designed to assess the influence of L-TRP on radish (Raphanus sativus) yield when applied to soil. The amount of L-TRP added to soil to give optimum radish growth in glasshouse studies was 3.0 mg kg^-1 soil which enhanced the root yield by 1.31-fold over the control. The root/shoot ratio was increased by 1.10-fold upon this amendment. One L-TRP application was sufficient to promote growth. The best time to apply L-TRP was at the onset of seedling emergence. The application of L-TRP promoted radish yield comparable to those plants treated with indole-3-acetic acid, indole-3-acetamide and indole-3-lactic acid. Foliar application of L-TRP had no effect on the root and shoot dry weight. A field study was conducted in which L-TRP applications at a rate of 20.4 and 204 mg m^-2 significantly enhanced the radish yield in fertilized plots receiving fertilization. The shoot dry weight was increased by 1.29-fold and the root dry weight by 1.15-fold over the control in response to 20.4 mg L-TRP m^-2. These findings indicate that L-TRP, applied at the appropriate times and concentrations, can increase radish yield. The effect of L-TRP on radish growth could be attributed to i) substrate-dependent auxin production in soil by the indigenous microflora, ii) uptake directly by plant roots followed by metabolism within their tissues, and/or iii) a change in the balance of rhizosphere microflora affecting plant growth.     

Induction of haploid callus and embryogenesis in in vitro cultured anthers of mulberry (Morus indica)

Anthers of Morus indica L., with microspores at the uninucleate stage were cultured; and the influence of temperature and kinetin pretreatment on induction of androgenic calluses was examined. The effects of various pretreatments revealed that 24 h cold pretreatment increased the percentage of cultures inducing callus. First microspore division was observed after 16 to 20 days of culture. Th anthers split and developed embryogenic calluses on MB medium supplemented with NAA (0.5 mg l^–1 and BA (1.0 mg l^–1)) using 8% sucrose. Rhizogenesis was induced on medium supplemented with NAA and BA (each 0.5 mg l^–1) with reduced myo-inositol (75 mg l^–1). Cytological study of induced roots confirmed the haploid nature of calluses. Different type of embryos were initiated upon transfer of calluses to medium supplemented with NAA, BA (each 0.5 mg l^–1), 2,4-d (1.0 mg l^–1) and PVP (600 mg l^–1). These embryoids further developed roots on removal of 2,4-d from the medium and developed precociously without developing cotyledons and formed elongated shoots.Abbreviations BA 6 benzylaminopurine - 2,4-d 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - FAA formalin: Acetic acid: Alcohol - GA₃ gibberellic acid - IBA indole-3-butyric acid - MB modifed Bourgin (Qian et al., 1982) - NAA 1-naphthalene acetic acid - PVP polyvinylpyrrolidone - RFS-135 rainfed selection 135 - SE standard error     

Gentisic acid conjugates of Medicago truncatula roots

Three phenolic glycosides 5-O-{[5′′-O-E-(4′′′-O-threo-guaiacylglycerol)-feruloyl]-β-apiofuranosyl-(1→2)-β-xylopyranosyl} gentisic acid, 5-O-[(5′′-O-vanilloyl)-β-apiofuranosyl-(1→2)-β-xylopyranosyl] gentisic acid and 1-O-[E-(4′′′-O-threo-guaiacylglycerol)-feruloyl]-3-O-β-galacturonopyranosyl glycerol were isolated and identified from the roots of Medicago truncatula together with four known 5-O-β-xylopyranosyl gentisic acid, vicenin-2, hovetrichoside C and pterosupin identified for the first time in this species. Structural elucidation was carried out on the basis of UV, mass, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectral data.     

Facile Preparation of Deuterium-Labeled Standards of Indole-3-Acetic Acid (IAA) and Its Metabolites to Quantitatively Analyze the Disposition of Exogenous IAA in Arabidopsis thaliana

[2′,2′-²H₂]-indole-3-acetic acid ([2′,2′-²H₂]IAA) was prepared in an easy and efficient manner involving base-catalyzed hydrogen/deuterium exchange. 1-O-([2′,2′-²H₂]-indole-3-acetyl)-β-D-glucopyranose, [2′,2′-²H₂]-2-oxoindole-3-acetic acid, and 1-O-([2′,2′-²H₂]-2-oxoindole-3-acetyl)-β-D-glucopyranose were also successfully synthesized from deuterated IAA, and effectively utilized as internal standards in the quantitative analysis of IAA and its metabolites in Arabidopsis thaliana by using liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS). The use of this technique shows that these metabolites were accumulated in the roots of Arabidopsis seedlings. Dynamic changes in the metabolites of IAA were observed in response to exogenous IAA, revealing that each metabolic action was regulated differently to contribute to the IAA homeostasis in Arabidopsis.     

The influence of NO3 - and NH4 + nutrition on the carbon and nitrogen partitioning characteristics of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and maize (Zea mays L.) plants

The carbon and nitrogen partitioning characteristics of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and maize (Zea mays L.) grown hydroponically at a constant pH on either 4 mM or 12 mM NO₃ ^- or NH₄ ⁺ nutrition were investigated using either ¹⁴C or ¹⁵N techniques. Greater allocation of ¹⁴C to amino-N fractions occurred at the expense of allocation of ¹⁴C to carbohydrate fractions in NH₄ ⁺-compared to NO₃ ^--fed plants. The [¹⁴C]carbohydrate:[¹⁴C]amino-N ratios were 1.5-fold and 2.0-fold greater in shoots and roots respectively of 12 mM NO₃ ^--compared to 12 mM NH₄ ⁺-fed wheat. In both 4 mM and 12 mM N-fed maize the [¹⁴C]carbohydrate:[¹⁴C]amino-N ratios were approximately 1.7-fold and 2.0-fold greater in shoots and roots respectively of NO₃ ^--compared to NH₄ ⁺-fed plants. Similar results were observed in roots of wheat and maize grown in split-root culture with one root-half in NO₃ ^--and the other in NH₄ ⁺-containing nutrient media. Thus the allocation of carbon to the amino-N fractions occurred at the expense of carbohydrate fractions, particularly within the root. Allocation of ¹⁴N and ¹⁵N within separate sets of plants confirmed that NH₄ ^--fed plants accumulated more amino-N compounds than NO₃ ^--fed plants. Wheat roots supplied with ¹⁵NH₄ ⁺ for 8 h were found to accumulate ¹⁵NH₄ ⁺ (8.5 g ¹⁵N g^-1 h^-1) whereas in maize roots very little ¹⁵NH₄ ⁺ accumulated (1.5 g ¹⁵N g^-1 h^-1)It is proposed that the observed accumulation of ¹⁵NH₄ ⁺ in wheat roots in these experiments is the result of limited availability of carbon within the roots of the wheat plants for the detoxification of NH₄ ⁺, in contrast to the situation in maize. Higher photosynthetic capacity and lower shoot: root ratios of the C₄ maize plants ensure greater carbon availability to the root than in the C₃ wheat plants. These differences in carbon and nitrogen partitioning between NO₃ ^--and NH₄ ⁺-fed wheat and maize could be responsible for different responses of wheat and maize root growth to NO₃ ^- and NH₄ ⁺ nutrition.     

氮肥配施生化抑制剂组合对黄泥田土壤氮素淋溶特征的影响

揭示尿素类肥料添加生化抑制剂组合后,在黄泥田土壤中硝态氮(NO~-_3-N)和铵态氮(NH~+_4-N)的淋溶损失规律。采用室内土柱淋溶培养试验,研究脲酶抑制剂N-丁基硫代磷酰三胺(NBPT)和硝化抑制剂2-氯-6-(三氯甲基)吡啶(CP)单独添加及配合施用对尿素和尿素硝铵(300 kg N/hm~2)中氮(N)素在土体中淋溶损失的影响。结果表明:尿素和尿素硝铵处理淋溶液中NH~+_4-N和NO~-_3-N浓度均呈先升后降的变化趋势,而出峰时间不一。NH~+_4-N和NO~-_3-N淋失量随着时间的延长,处理间差异逐渐变大。NBPT处理可以减缓尿素水解,有效抑制NH~+_4-N生成,延缓其出峰时间,减少NH~+_4-N流失;CP处理可以有效抑制NH~+_4-N向NO~-_3-N转化,减少NO~-_3-N流失。与单独添加NBPT和CP处理相比,两者配施对N素淋溶损失有明显的协同抑制效果在黄泥田土壤中,既能减缓尿素水解,保持土壤中较高NH~+_4-N含量,又能降低淋溶液中NO~-_3-N浓度。培养结束时(第72天),UAN处理中NO~-_3-N、NH~+_4-N、矿质态N淋失总量及硝化率较U处理高34.39%、5.32%、31.72%和15.71%。U+NBPT、U+CP和U+NBPT+CP处理较U处理分别显著降低NO~-_3-N淋失总量达15.58%、114.77%和73.45%;UAN+NBPT、UAN+CP和UAN+NBPT+CP处理较UAN处理分别显著降低达15.88%、54.87%和37.46%。不同处理NO~-_3-N淋失总量大小表现为:UAN UAN+NBPT U UAN+NBPT+CP U+NBPT UAN+CP U+NBPT+CP U+CP CK。在一定施肥量条件下,NBPT和CP单独施用或配施均可降低黄泥田土壤中NO~-_3-N累积淋失量。对各处理淋溶液中NO~-_3-N淋失量(y)随时间(x)的变化进行拟合,其中以线性方程(y=ax+b)的拟合度较高,且各抑制剂处理a、b值均存在明显差异。总体认为,在黄泥田土壤中施用CP及其与NBPT配施可以显著降低土壤NO~-_3-N淋溶损失,减少N素淋失风险,提高肥料利用率。
