不同氮素水平下施硫对高产小麦碳氮运转和产量的影响

在大田栽培条件下,以2个不同穗型的高产冬小麦品种为试验材料,在施240 kg·hm-2(N240)和330 kg·hm-2(N330)纯氮水平下,分别施纯硫60 kg·hm-2(S60)和0 kg·hm-2(S0),研究了施硫对小麦不同器官碳氮运转及其对籽粒产量和蛋白质产量的影响.结果显示:(1)2个供氮水平下,施硫(S60)均比对照(S0)增加了2个小麦品种的叶片、茎、鞘、颖壳和穗轴等营养器官花前贮藏干物质、氮素的运转量和运转率以及总运转量和总运转率,提高了转运干物质、氮素对籽粒重和籽粒氮素的贡献率,极显著提高了籽粒和蛋白质产量.(2)施硫对豫农949品种籽粒和蛋白质产量提高幅度显著高于兰考矮早八;与对照(S0)相比,豫农949的N240S60和N330S60处理使籽粒产量分别增加12.74%和16.41%,蛋白质产量分别增加16.84%和16.14%.结果表明,中氮和高氮水平下施硫均可明显促进高产小麦植株的C-N运转,提高植株对氮的吸收利用和碳物质的积累,从而增加籽粒产量,但不同品种间的施硫效应存在差异.     

不同水分条件下氮素供应对小麦植株氮代谢及籽粒蛋白质积累的影响

土壤水分逆境是限制小麦籽粒品质形成的重要生态因子,明确土壤水分逆境下小麦籽粒品质形成的生理机制及调优技术途径,对于深化小麦品质生理生态研究和指导小麦调优栽培具有重要的理论意义和应用前景。在防雨池栽条件下,设置渍水、干旱和对照3个水分处理,每个水分处理下再设置120和240 kg.hm-2两个施氮水平,研究了花后渍水和干旱逆境下氮素对两个籽粒蛋白质含量不同的小麦品种植株氮代谢和籽粒蛋白质积累的影响。结果表明,与正常水分处理相比,花后干旱和渍水均降低旗叶硝酸还原酶活性、叶片总氮含量和游离氨基酸含量。干旱处理提高了茎鞘总氮与游离氨基酸含量以及籽粒蛋白质含量,而渍水处理则使其降低。水分逆境下增施氮肥提高旗叶硝酸还原酶活性、叶片与茎鞘总氮和游离氨基酸含量以及籽粒游离氨基酸和蛋白质含量。花后干旱和渍水均显著降低了小麦籽粒产量和蛋白质产量。增施氮肥提高适宜水分和水分亏缺条件下小麦籽粒产量,但不利于渍水下小麦产量的提高。这说明,花后渍水和干旱逆境下施用氮肥对小麦植株氮代谢和籽粒蛋白质积累有明显的调节效应。

芽孢杆菌ZJM-P5与氮配施对红小豆幼苗生长和氮吸收的影响

以红小豆品种‘晋红小豆5号’和促生芽孢杆菌ZJM-P5为材料,设置不同氮素用量和菌液浓度处理,采用盆栽试验,测定各菌氮处理下红小豆幼苗农艺性状、生理特性及含氮量等指标,研究促生芽孢杆菌ZJM-P5与氮配施对红小豆幼苗生长发育的影响,并筛选出最佳促生菌液浓度水平,为提高红小豆幼苗的养分吸收利用效率及其高产优质栽培提供理论依据。结果表明:(1)在同一菌液浓度下,红小豆苗期株高、茎粗、叶面积、地上部干重、根系干重、根表面积、根系体积、根系平均直径均随施氮量的增加呈先升高后降低的趋势,而最大根长随着施氮量增加有所下降;根系可溶性糖及MDA含量随施氮量增加均呈先降后升的趋势;根系SOD、POD活性及根系活力均随施氮量增加先升高后降低;根系可溶性蛋白含量、NR活性和植株含氮量均随施氮量增加而增加。(2)在相同施氮量条件下,除根系可溶性糖和MDA含量随着菌浓度的增加先下降后升高外,其余各指标均呈先升后降的变化趋势;各指标除低氮(50mg·kg~(-1))水平下在10~8 cfu·mL~(-1)菌液浓度达到最大值外,其它氮水平均在10~7 cfu·mL~(-1)菌液浓度达到最大值。研究发现,芽孢杆菌ZJM-P5与氮合理配施有利于红小豆植株的氮素吸收和生长发育,并以100mg·kg~(-1)为最佳施氮(纯氮)水平,10~7 cfu·mL~(-1)为最佳菌浓度,且两者组合处理的幼苗农艺性状、根系活力及保护酶活性、氮素含量均达到较高水平;过量施氮、施菌或菌氮比例不合理则会导致幼苗干物质积累及氮素提升受限,进而抑制植株正常生长。     

Nitrogen uptake in relation to water availability in wheat

Nitrogen uptake and distribution in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) are dependent on environmental conditions and in particular on the water regime. Under Mediterranean conditions, where high water stress at the end of the crop cycle is frequent, nitrogen uptake can be reduced, affecting yield and quality of the grain. To disclose these relations a field experiment was carried out in Central Portugal. Wheat was grown on a clay soil (Vertisol) at three water treatments: rainfed (WO), with 80 mm of irrigation (W1) and with 50 mm and 70 mm irrigations (W2). All treatments received 50 kg ha^–1 of N prior to sowing and were top-dressed with 140 kg ha^–1 of N, splitted in two applications, Kjeldahl N was determined in green leaves (GL), yellow leaves (YL), stems (ST), chaff (CH) and grain (GR). N uptake after anthesis was 40% of the total in W2, but was not noticeable in the other two treatments. N concentrations in the total above-ground plant dry matter, and in both YL and ST were not very different according to treatment, but water availability increased grain-N concentration. It seems, therefore, that grain protein concentration and N uptake can be substantially increased by late irrigations.     

Nitrogen regulation of amino acid catabolism in Neurospora crassa

Neurospora crassa can utilize numerous compounds including certain amino acids as a sole nitrogen source. Mutants of the nit-2 locus, a regulatory gene which is postulated to mediate nitrogen catabolite repression, are deficient in the ability to utilize several amino acids as well as other nitrogen sources used by wild type. Various enzymes involved in amino acid catabolism were found to be regulated in distinct ways. Arginase, ornithine transaminase, and pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase are all inducible enzymes but are not subject to nitrogen catabolite repression. By contrast, proline oxidase and the amino acid transport system(s) are controlled by nitrogen repression and their synthesis is increased markedly when nitrogen source is limiting. Unlike wild type, the nit-2 mutant cannot derepress amino acid transport, although proline oxidase is regulated in a normal fashion.This work was supported by Grant R01 GM-23367 from the National Institutes of Health.

Nitrogen regulation in fungi

Nitrogen regulation has been extensively studied in fungi revealing a complex array of interacting regulatory genes. The general characterisation of the systems inAspergillus nidulans andNeurospora crassa shall be briefly described, but much of this paper will concentrate specifically on the recent molecular characterisation ofareA, the principle regulatory gene fromA. nidulans which mediates nitrogen metabolite repression. Three areas shall be explored in detail, firstly the DNA binding domain, which has been characterised extensively by both molecular and genetic analysis. Secondly we shall report recent analysis which has revealed the presence of related DNA binding activities inA. nidulans. Finally we shall discuss the mechanism by which the nitrogen state of the cell is monitored by theareA product, in particular localisation of the domain within theareA product which mediates the regulatory response within the protein.     

Foliar Nitrogen Dynamics and Nitrogen Resorption of a Sandy Shrub Salix gordejevii in Northern China

Resorption of nitrogen (N) from senescing leaves is an important conservation mechanism that allows plants to use the same N repeatedly. Seasonal variations in leaf nitrogen of mature green and senescing leaves and N resorption in Salix gordejevii Chang, a sandy shrub in northern China, were studied. Our objective was to compare N resorption of this Salix species that successfully occupy different habitats (shifting sandland, fixed sandland and lowland) with differences in soil N availability and moisture. Nitrogen concentrations in green and senescing leaves were higher in June and July. N resorption efficiency (percentage reduction of N between green and senescing leaves) was highest at shifting sandland, intermediate at fixed sandland, and lowest at lowland. There was a clear seasonal variation in N-resorption efficiency, with a lower value at the early growing season and a higher value during summer. N resorption efficiency was lower at the sites with higher soil N availability, suggesting that the efficiency of the resorption process is determined by the availability of the nutrient in the soil. Resorption from senescing leaves may play an important role in the nitrogen dynamics of sandy plants and reduce the nitrogen requirements for plant growth. We conclude that N resorption from senescing leaves in S. gordejevii was correlated to soil characteristics and higher N resorption on poor soils is a phenotypic adjustment by this species to maximize N-use at low availability.     

Effects of Nitrate Nutrition on Nitrogen Metabolism in Cassava

Two experiments were conducted independently with plants of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) growing in sand with nutrient solutions with four nitrate concentrations (0.5, 3, 6 or 12 mM). In leaves, nitrate-N was undetectable at the low nitrate applications; total-N, ammonium-N, amino acid-N, reduced-N and insoluble-N all increased linearly, while soluble proteins did it curvilinearly, with increasing nitrate supply. In contrast, soluble-N did not respond to N treatments. Total-N and soluble proteins, but not nitrate-N or ammonium-N, were much higher in leaves than in roots. Plants grown under severe N deficiency accumulated ammonium-N and amino acid-N in their roots. Further, plants were exposed to either 3 or 12 mM nitrate-N, and leaf activities of key N-assimilating enzymes were evaluated. Activities of nitrate reductase, glutamine synthetase, glutamate synthase and glutamate dehydrogenase were considerably lower in low nitrate supply than in high one. Despite the low nitrate reductase activity, cassava leaves showed an ability to maintain a large proportion of N in soluble proteins.     

不同林龄杉木氮素的获取策略

为了探讨不同林龄杉木人工林氮素获取策略,选择了江西千烟洲森林生态研究站红壤区的3种林龄杉木人工林(5年生幼龄林、13年生中龄林和30年生成熟林)作为研究对象,利用稳定性同位素~(15)N示踪技术研究了它们的氮素吸收策略。结果表明,杉木对硝态氮的吸收受林龄影响,成熟林的吸收速率最高,为(5.72±0.24)μg N g~(-1)干重h~(-1),而中龄林和幼龄林的吸收速率相当,分别为(1.57±0.13)μg N g~(-1)干重h~(-1)和(2.36±0.22)μg N g~(-1)干重h~(-1)。幼龄林((34.33±1.20)μg N g~(-1)干重h~(-1))和成熟林((34.18±2.32)μg N g~(-1)干重h~(-1))对铵态氮的吸收速率相似,均显著高于中龄林((23.33±1.39)μg N g~(-1)干重h~(-1))。杉木对甘氨酸的吸收不受林龄的影响。3种年龄的杉木均对铵态氮表现出强的获取能力,其中成熟林杉木对硝态氮的获取能力明显弱于对铵态氮的获取,但却强于对甘氨酸的获取。这样的结果反映了林龄能影响杉木人工林对无机氮的吸收,但未影响对有机氮的吸收;杉木偏好吸收铵态氮,对硝态氮和甘氨酸的吸收很少。如果能把氮素形态考虑进对杉木人工林的施肥管理当中,那么可能会极大地改善杉木的生产力。     

Nitrogen cycling in Louisiana Gulf Coast brackish marshes

Nitrogen fixation and nitrogen accumulation were measured in a Louisiana Spartina patens brackish marsh. Using the acetylene reduction technique calibrated with direct ¹⁵N₂ assimilation, an equivalent of 90.0 µ g N g^–1 yr^–1 was fixed. Fixation was greater in the summer months and in the upper portion of the soil profile. Extractable ammonium increased with depth and was negatively correlated with ethylene production. Average ammonium concentration in the sediment was 39 µg NH₄ ⁺-N g^–1 sediment. Cesium-137 dating of the soil profile showed the marsh was vertically accreting at a rate of 0.60 cm yr^–1. Calculations using vertical accretion rate, bulk density, and total nitrogen content of sediment indicate that the marshes are accumumating 7.2 g Nm^–2 yr^–1 thus serving as a major nitrogen sink. Measured nitrogen fluxes were incorporated with existing flux measurement in developing a nitrogen budget for the marsh.     

Nitrogen resorption from needles of Pinus thunbergii Parl. growing along a topographic gradient of soil nutrient availability

To examine the relative importance of nutrient resorption in increasing the nutrient-use efficiency of Pinus thunbergii Parl., we investigated the nitrogen contents of green and senescent needles of P. thunbergii trees growing at five positions along a slope (LS, lower slope; TR, transitional site; MS, middle slope; US, upper slope; RG, ridge) and found that soil nitrogen availability tended to decrease upslope. Nitrogen concentration in green and senescent needles decreased upslope. Nitrogen resorption efficiencies (percentage change in nitrogen content between green and senescent needles) increased upslope from 43 to 77% with decreasing soil nitrogen availability. Nitrogen resorption efficiency was related to green needle dry mass per unit length, but there was no clear correlation between nitrogen resorption efficiency and nitrogen content in green needles. We concluded that the increase in nitrogen resorption efficiency of P. thunbergii enhanced the nitrogen-use efficiency as a response to the low nitrogen availability.     

氮素水平对不同品种茶树光合及叶绿素荧光特性的影响

为探明氮素水平对不同品种茶树的光合系统的影响机制,以‘福鼎大白茶’、‘保靖黄金茶1号’、‘白毫早’两年生茶苗为材料,设置不施氮N_0(0g)、低氮N_1(11g)、中氮N_2(22g)和高氮N_3(33g)4个氮素[(NH_4)_2SO_4]水平的盆栽实验,研究了铵态氮对3个品种茶树的生长势、叶片叶绿素含量、光合参数与叶绿素荧光参数的影响。结果表明:(1)施氮处理能够显著促进茶树的生长,提高茶树叶片叶绿素含量、净光合速率(Pn)、气孔导度(Gs)、蒸腾速率(Tr),降低胞间CO_2浓度(Ci),并以N_2处理最好,但水分利用率(WUE)在3个品种茶树间表现不同。(2)在N_2处理下,3个茶树品种的叶片光系统Ⅱ(PSⅡ)暗适应下的最大光化学效率(F_v/F_m)、光化学猝灭系数(qP)、PSⅡ的相对电子传递速率(rETR)亦增加最大,非光化学淬灭系数(NPQ)降低。(3)茶树叶片叶绿素含量与光合参数间存在着一定的联系,并且具有品种特异性。研究发现,适量施氮能够显著增加茶树叶绿素含量、气孔导度、光合活性,从而使得各品种茶树净光合速率增加;氮素水平对各茶树品种的光合及荧光特性影响存在差异,水分利用率亦具有品种特异性;生产中应综合叶绿素含量、光合作用参数、叶绿素荧光参数,可快速、直观地评价不同品种茶树对氮素营养的内在需求,为茶园施肥管理提供指导。
