The effects of 4 or 8 drought cycles on four grass species,Cenchrus pennisetiformis, Leptochloa fusca, Panicum turgidum, andPennisetum divisum were assessed in a pot experiment. There were significant differences between the species in biomass production under water stress.C. pennisetiformis andP. turgidum produced significantly greater fresh and dry matter thanP. divisum and especially thanL. fusca. L. fusca had the lowest andP. divisum highest osmotic potentials compared with the other species after the completion of 4 or 8 drought cycles. Osmotic adjustment (difference between osmotic potential of droughted/rehydrated plants and control plants) was highest inL. fusca. The stomatal conductance was significantly decreased with increased drought stress inC. pennisetiformis. The elasticity ofC. pennisetiformis, P. turgidum andP. divisum increased with increase in number of drought cycles, whereas that ofL. fusca remained unchanged.L. fusca andP. turgidum had the lowest leaf hydration of all species after 8 drought cycles. The chlorophyllsa andb in all species remained unaffected by drought treatments. The proline content ofC. pennisetiformis andL. fusca increased significantly with increased drought stress, whereas that ofP. turgidum remained unaffected after 4 or 8 drought cycles.L. fusca synthesized great amount of leaf soluble proteins during 8 drought cycles, whereasP. divisum had low protein content after 4 drought cycles. The protein contents ofC. pennisetiformis andP. turgidum remained unaffected after 8 drought cycles. The leaf epicuticular wax ofL. fusca increased consistently with increased drought stress, but leaf wax ofP. divisum increased only at the highest drought stress and that ofC. pennisetiformis andP. turgidum increased after 4 drought cycles. On the basis of these results it was established thatC. pennisetiformis andP. turgidum were the most tolerant,P. divisum intermediate, andL. fusca the most sensitive to drought stress. The osmotic adjustment did not positively correlate with the degree of drought resistance.  相似文献

Aims

High pH, and high bicarbonate (HCO3) and calcium (Ca) availability characterise calcareous soils. High [Ca] only partially explains why some Lupinus species are calcifuge, so we explored high [HCO3] and high pH.

Methods

We grew six Lupinus genotypes in hydroponics with pH 5, 6.5 and 8a (adjusted by KOH), and 8b (adjusted by KHCO3). Leaf symptoms and areas, root appearance and biomass were recorded; whole leaf and root nutrient concentrations, and leaf cellular phosphorus (P), Ca and potassium (K) concentrations were determined using elemental X-ray microanalysis.

Results

Chlorosis was observed in young leaves at high pH for L. angustifolius and L. cosentinii, and P deficiency at high pH for all genotypes. High pH decreased iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) uptake in all genotypes. It also decreased lateral root growth, the uptake of P, K, Ca, and manganese (Mn) by all sensitive species; and translocation of P, Fe, Zn, Mn, and Ca to leaves in most sensitive species. However, leaf [Ca], leaf [K], [K] within each measured cell type, and translocation of K and Ca to leaves of L. pilosus and L. cosentinii at pH 8 were greater than at pH 5 and 6.5. Compared with pH 8a, all L. angustifolius genotypes translocated more P, Fe, Zn, Mn and K from roots to leaves at pH 8b. High pH did not affect the leaf cell types that accumulated P and Ca, but decreased the leaf cellular [P].

Conclusions

Lupinus angustifolius and L. cosentinii were sensitive to high [HCO3] and/or high pH; L. pilosus was relatively tolerant. High pH decreased lateral root growth and nutrient uptake, inhibiting growth of sensitive species. High [HCO3] diminished the negative effect of pH 8 on nutrient translocation to leaves in most L. angustifolius genotypes. This knowledge provides critical insights into the habits of Lupinus species to guide breeding of calcicole plants.

Changes in leaf solute concentrations in response to salinity were measured at two growth stages in two species of wheat, Triticum turgidum L. cv. Aldura (Durum group) and Triticum aestivum L., cv. Probred that differed in their salt tolerances. Both species at 55 days of age were Na+-excluders, but the concentration of Na+ was 10 times higher in T. turgidum than T. aestivum at low to moderate levels of stress. The ratio then decreased until it was 2:1 at – 1.2 MPa. In T. turgidum, K+ concentrations decreased with increasing Na+ concentrations so that the sum of the two cations remained constant at all stress levels, but in T. aestivum K+ decreased more rapidly than Na+ increased. In both species growing in media at 0 to –0.6 MPa, the amounts of Mg2+ and Ca2+ in 55-day-old plants that could be extracted with hot water were below 0.1 mmol (g dry weight)?1. Then, as osmotic potentials of media decreased further, hot water-extractable Ca2+ increased greatly until, at – 1.2 MPa, Ca2+ concentrations were almost equal to the sum of Na+ and K+. In the range of 0 to –1.0 MPa, the ratio of Cl? to total cationic charge remained constant at 1:6 in T. aestivum and 1:2 in T. turgidum. However, at – 1.2 MPa, the ratio in both species had changed to 2:3. Sucrose and betaine concentrations were 4 and 48 μmol (g dry weight)?1, respectively, in non-stressed plants of both species. At – 1.2 MPa, sucrose had increased 30-fold but betaine had increased only 2.5-fold. Proline increased exponentially relative to foliar Na+ in T. turgidum. In T. aestivum only plants grown at –1.2 MPa contained sufficient Na+ to stimulate the accumulation of proline. Although the quantities of the solutes in leaves of non-stressed 96-day-old plants differed from those in non-stressed younger plants, the patterns of change of organic solutes as the older plants were subjected to increasing saline stresses were the same as in younger plants with the exception of sucrose. Sucrose concentrations were much higher in leaves of non-stressed older plants and this sugar first increased and then decreased with decreasing osmotic potentials of media.  相似文献

Wheat grain yield production in the rain-fed areas is limited by water deficits during crop growth. A greenhouse experiment was conducted during spring 1992 at ICARDA, Tel Hadya, Syria, with eight genotypes representing two Triticum species (Triticum turgidum var. durum and Triticum aestivum L.) under four soil-moisture regimes (95%, 75%, 55%, and 35% field capacity) to study the effect of water deficit on leaf development. The phyllochron was similar in the two species across the watering regimes. The range in variation in phyllochron among the genotypes was similar in the two species. Phyllochron response to water stress among genotypes was distinct in the driest regime in both species. Cham 6 (T. aestivum) and Gallareta (T. turgidum var. durum) had similar phyllochron across all moisture regimes whereas in other genotypes phyllochron was higher in the dries regime. Leaf area decreased with increasing moisture stress. Triticum turgidum var. durum genotypes were later in flowering as they had, on average, one leaf more than Triticum aestivum genotypes with similar leaf appearance rates.  相似文献

The cationic responses of haemolymph, mantle collar, headfoot, gut + digestive diverticulum and ovotestis + albumin gland of three planorbids to cationic changes in the media are explored. Body organs exhibited cationic homeostasis, although attained with difficulty under very low Ca : Mg and Ca : Na ratios. Haemolymph imbalances were obtained at very low calcium concentrations and at very low Ca : Mg and Ca : Na ratios in the medium; this may be linked to competition for Ca2+ uptake sites in the epithelium by Mg2+ and possibly Na+ ions.Fecundity and shell growth in relation to calcium concentrations and to Ca : Mg and Ca : Na ratios are examined.Normal internal cationic levels, under optimal conditions, were obtained for each species. Significant interspecific differences for haemolymph sodium were found; magnesium levels were slightly higher in Biomphalaria spp. than in Helisoma trivolvis; potassium levels were all similar. Amounts of tissue calcium decreased as follows: Mantle collar head-foot ovotestis + albumin gland-gut + diverticulum. Tissue magnesium levels in the gut were low. H. trivolvis had highest tissue calcium and sodium; B. glabrata had highest tissue potassium.  相似文献

Summary Absorption and accumulation of alkali (Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs) and alkaline earth (Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba) metals were investigated as taxonomic characteristics (in 62 plant species). Leaf and soil samples were collected from 9 sites in temperature forest in Japan and the above mentioned elements were analyzed. Considerable differences were found among species in their ability to accumulate alkali and alkaline earth metals. Very high concentrations of Li (45 ppm, D.W.), K (37×103 ppm), Rb (159 ppm) and Cs (8.2 ppm) were detected inLastrea japonica which were about 412, 12, 27 and 6 times higher than those of the species with the lowest concentrations. Na content was high inAcer micranthum (358 ppm) which was 16 times higher than species with the lowest concentration. Other species containing high levels of alkali metals wereHydrangea macrophylla, Struthiopteris niponica, Clethra barbinervis. Mean discrimination ratio (D.R.) for all investigated plant species for Li, Na, Rb, and Cs to K were 1.7, 0.44, 0.9 and 1.8 respectively. High concentrations of alkaline earth metals Ca (36×103 ppm), Sr (345 ppm), and Ba (241 ppm) were found in the leaves ofHydrangea paniculata which were about 31, 84, and 72 times higher than those for the species with the lowest concentration. Mg was very high inStruthiopteris niponica (83×102 ppm). Other species with high concentrations of alkaline earth metals belonged to the genus Viburnum. Mean D.Rs. for Mg, Sr, and Bavs Ca were 1.0, 0.7 and 0.08. Principal component analysis of interrelationships between the mineral content in leaf tissues indicated that these elements could be classified into 2 groups with respect to their accumulation behavior in plants. The alkali metals K, Li, Rb, and Cs behaved similarly in their accumulation in leaves but Na behaved independently. Alkaline earth metals Ca, Mg, Sr, and Ba were also found to behave similarly in their accumulation. Factors scores of 1st and 2nd components revealed three groups of plant species: alkaliphilic, alkaline earthphilic, and neutral (non-accumulators).  相似文献

Erythrina fusca is an important legume used for shade cover in cacao plantations in Brazil. Cacao plantations receive large quantities of copper (Cu)-containing agrochemicals, mainly for control of diseases. Therefore, Cu toxicity was investigated in seedlings grown in hydroponics with increasing concentrations of Cu (0.005–32 mg L?1) in a greenhouse. Ultrastructural analyses showed cell plasmolysis in the root cortical area and changes in thylakoid membranes at 8 mg Cu L?1 and higher. There were changes in epicuticular wax deposition on the leaf surface at the 16 and 32 mg Cu L?1 treatments. Leaf gas exchanges were highly affected 24 hours after application of treatments beginning at 8 mg Cu L?1 and higher Cu concentrations. Chemical analyses showed that Cu content in E. fusca roots increased as Cu concentration in the nutrient solution increased, whereas the shoot did not show significant changes. It is also observed that excess Cu interfered with Zn, Fe, Mn, Mg, K, P, and Ca content in the different E. fusca organs. Investigation of Cu toxicity symptoms focusing on morphophysiological, ultrastructural, gas exchange, and nutritional changes would be useful to alleviate Cu toxicity in E. fusca under field conditions, an important agroforestry species in cacao plantation.  相似文献

Leaf mineral concentrations of co‐occurring Erica arborea, Juniperus communis and Myrtus communis were measured at bimonthly intervals throughout a year in a natural CO2 spring and in a nearby control site with similar soil chemistry in a Mediterranean environment. There were different responses to the elevated [CO2] (c. 700 μL L?1) of the spring site plants depending on the element and the species. In the CO2 spring site K, Ca, Mg, Mn, Al, Fe, and Ti leaf concentrations and the ratio C/N showed significant greater values in at least one or two of the three species. Leaf S concentration were greater in all three species. Leaf concentrations of N, Sr, Co, and B were lower in at least one or two species, and those of C and Ba were lower in all the three studied species near the CO2 spring. P, Na, Zn, Si, Cu, Ni, Cr, Pb, Mo, V and Cd leaf concentrations and the specific leaf area (SLA, measured in Myrtus communis) did not show any consistent or significant pattern in response to the elevated [CO2] of the spring site. There was a slight trend towards maximum concentrations of most of these elements during autumn–winter and minimum values during the spring season, especially in Myrtus communis. Multivariate principal component analyses based on the leaf elemental concentrations clearly differentiated the two sites and the three species. Lower concentrations at the spring site were not the result of a dilution effect by increased structural or nonstructural carbon. In contrast to most experimental studies of CO2 enrichment, mainly conducted for short periods, several of these elements had greater concentrations in the CO2 spring site. Nutrient acclimation and possible causes including decreased nutrient export, increased nutrient uptake capacity, photosynthetic down‐regulation, Mediterranean water stress, and higher H2S concentration in the spring site are discussed.  相似文献

This study assessed the effect of leaf age on construction cost (CC) in the mangrove species Avicennia germinans, Laguncularia racemosa, and Rhizophora mangle growing in their natural habitat. Leaf osmolality values were species-specific, the highest in A. germinans (1 693 mmol kg–1) and the lowest in L. racemosa (1 270 mmol kg–1). In the three species, contents of chlorophyll (a+b) (Chla+b) and nitrogen (N) per unit of leaf area were maximal in adult leaves and tended to decline with age. Leaf mass to leaf area ratio (LMA) and ash content increased during leaf ageing. Similarly, as leaves aged, a significant increase in leaf construction cost per leaf area (CCa) was observed, while per leaf mass (CCm) it remained almost constant, suggesting a sustained production of leaf compounds as leaves became older. CC was positively correlated with LMA and heat of combustion (Hc) per leaf area, suggesting differences among species in the quantity and composition of expensive compounds. Leaf half lifetime (t0.5) showed contrasting values in the three mangrove species (60, 111, and 160 d in L. racemosa, R. mangle, and A. germinans, respectively). Overall, L. racemosa was the species with less expensive leaves to construct while leaves of A. germinans and R. mangle had the highest CCm and CCa, respectively. Leaf longevity was positively correlated with the ratio between CC and maximum photosynthetic rate (P max), clearly showing the existence of a balance between leaf costs and benefits.  相似文献

Seasonal changes in plant NO3 -N use were investigated by measuring leaf nitrate reductase activity (NRA), leaf N concentration, and leaf expansion in one evergreen woody species (Quercus glauca Thunb.) and two deciduous woody species [Acer palmatum Thunb. and Zelkova serrata (Thunb.) Makino]. Leaf N concentration was highest at the beginning of leaf expansion and decreased during the expansion process to a steady state at the point of full leaf expansion in all species. The leaf NRA of all species was very low at the beginning of leaf expansion, followed by a rapid increase and subsequent decrease. The highest leaf NRA was observed in the middle of the leaf-expansion period, and the lowest leaf NRA occurred in summer for all species. Significant positive correlations were detected between leaf NRA and leaf expansion rates, while leaf N concentrations were negatively correlated with leaf area. In the evergreen Q. glauca, the N concentration in current buds increased before leaves opened; concurrently, the N concentration in 1-year-old leaves decreased by 25%. Our results show that the leaf-expansion period is the most important period for NO3 -N assimilation by broadleaf tree species, and that decreases in leaf N concentration through the leaf-expansion period are at least partly compensated for by newly assimilated NO3 -N in current leaves.  相似文献

Summary Lupinus albus andK. angustifolius were grown in the field, harvested prior to leaf fall and the Ca, Mg, Na, K, Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, P and Si content of the leaflets, petioles, stems, young shoots and inflorescences determined. Element levels inL. albus parts had changed little from those at an earlier harvest, except in the inflorescences in which most element levels had decreased. Both species accumulated manganese;L. angustifolius only in, the leaflets andL. albus in most parts. The leaflets of both were enriched with iron and this with manganese accumulation in a soil of neutral pH is considered to result from reducing conditions in the rhizosphere increasing their availability to the lupins. Silica, present at trace levels, is unlikely to be important for tolerance of lupins to manganese.  相似文献

The dependence of sodium-calcium exchange current (I Na(Ca)) through the membrane of isolated secretory cells ofChironomus larva on pH of the extracellular solution was studied with the voltage-clamp technique with intracellular perfusion.I Na(Ca) evoked by hyperpolarization of the membrane from –20 to –60 mV was recorded within physiological values of Na+ and Ca2+ gradients. It was established that acidification of extracellular solution from pH 7.2 to 4.0 gradually decreased the amplitude ofI Na(Ca) with pK' — 3.72. In all cases at pH 3.0 an outward current of considerable amplitude emerged in response to membrane hyperpolarization. The reversal of the current occurred at pH around 3.25. A decrease inI Na(Ca) was due to protonation of acid ionogenic groups (quite possibly, of the residues of aspartic or glutamic amino acids), which had been involved in binding of cations. Alkalization of extracellular solution from pH 7.2 to 10.0 produced a gradual increase in theI Na(Ca) amplitude; pK' was in the pH range between 9 and 10. The increase inI Na(Ca) in alkaline medium was probably due to the appearance of negatively charged cations at binding sites, which could be carried by deprotonated thiosulfate groups of cysteine residues. This was indicated by the possibility of initial decrease inI Na(Ca) under the action of Hg2+ ions.Neirofiziologiya/Neurophysiology, Vol. 28, No. 4/5, pp. 193–196, July–October, 1996.  相似文献

Rapeseed (Brassica napus) is a crop relatively tolerant to salt and sodium. Our objective was to study the interactions between Na, K and Ca and their relationship with its yield under the isolated effects of soil salinity or sodicity.Two experiments were carried out using pots filled with the Ah horizon of a Typic Natraquoll. There were three salinity levels (2.3 dS m-1; 6.0 dS m-1 and 10.0 dS m-1) and three sodicity levels, expressed as sodium adsorption ratios (SAR: 12; 27 and 44). The soil was kept near field capacity.As soil salinity increased, the K/Na and Ca/Na ratios in the tissues decreased markedly but yields and aerial biomass production were not affected. As soil SAR value increased, the K/Na and Ca/Na ratios in plants and K-Na and Ca-Na selectivities decreased. Plants could not maintain their Ca concentration in soil with a high SAR. The grain yield and biomass production diminished significantly in the highest SAR treatment. Our results are consistent with those showing detrimental osmotic effects of salts in Brassica napus. Conversely, under sodicity, the K/Na and Ca/Na ratios in plant tissues decreased considerably, in accordance with grain and biomass production. These results show that the effects of sodicity are different from those of salinity.  相似文献

A salt marsh species, Jaumea carnosa, was used in hydroponic experiments to test the effects of increasing NaCl concentrations on leaf succulence and plant accumulations of K, Ca, Mg, Na and Cl. A nested experimental design was used with four salinity levels. Plants were grown in full Hoagland's solution plus different amounts of NaCl (0.0–1.2 osmoles). Leaf succulence was measured as percent water content as well as vertical elongation of mesophyll cells. There were no corresponding increases in leaf succulence with increasing concentrations of NaCl in the root zone. Plants receiving aerosol spray (40 mg/dm2/day) did not show significant increases in leaf succulence. Leaf succulence was significantly increased when the plants were removed from the NaCl solutions and placed in non-salinized Hoagland's solution. Osmotic concentrations of cell sap in leaf tissues showed significant increases as NaCl concentrations increased in the root zone. The concentrations of K, Ca and Mg were higher in plants grown without NaCl than in those grown with NaCl. The accumulations of K in the root tissues were always higher than those of the shoot tissues. Although there was a two-fold difference in NaCl concentrations at the highest levels, the concentrations of Na in the shoot tissues were relatively similar. The results of the Cl analyses of shoot tissues showed a similar pattern of regulation of uptake. This regulation of salt uptake may be important in preventing injury by limiting accumulations of salt in plant tissues when growing in soils of high osmotic potentials.  相似文献

The effects of salinisation of soil on Acacia catechu (Mimosaceae) were studied by means of emergence and growth of seedlings and pattern of mineral accumulation. A mixture of chlorides and sulphates of Na, K, Ca and Mg was added to the soil and salinity was maintained at 4.1, 6.3, 8.2,10.1 and 12.2 dSm−1. A negative relationship between proportion of seed germination and salt concentration was obtained. Seedlings did not emerge when soil salinity exceeded 10.1 dSm−1. Results suggested that this tree species is salt tolerant at the seed germination stage. Seedlings survived and grew up to soil salinity of 10.1 dSm−1, which suggests that this species is salt tolerant at the seedling stage too. Elongation of stem and root was retarded by increasing salt stress. Among the tissues, young roots and stem were most tolerant to salt stress and were followed by old roots and leaves, successively. Leaf tissue exhibited maximum reduction in dry mass production in response to increasing salt stress. However, production of young roots and death of old roots were found to be continuous and plants apparently use this process as an avoidance mechanism to remove excess ions and delay onset of ion accumulation in this tissue. This phenomenon, designated “fine root turnover”, is of importance to the mechanisms of salt tolerance. Plants accumulated Na in roots and were able to regulate transfer of Na ions to leaves. Stem tissues were a barrier for translocation of Na from root to leaf. Moreover, K was affected in response to salinity; it rapidly decreased in root tissues with increased salinisation. Nitrogen content decreased in all tissues (leaf, stem and root) in response to low water treatment and salinisation of soil. Phosphorus content significantly decreased, while Ca increased in leaves as soil salinity increased. Changes in tissue and whole plant accumulation patterns of the other elements tested, as well as possible mechanisms for avoidance of Na toxicity in this tree species during salinisation, are discussed.  相似文献

Differential uptake and translocation of Ca and Sr in organisms have been reported, calling into question the use of Sr to track Ca cycling in the environment. We investigated the relationship between Ca/Sr ratios in soil extracts of various strengths (H2O, NH4Cl, and NH4EDTA) and seedlings of sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) grown from natural regeneration on 37 sites. Our objectives were to determine if Ca/Sr ratios in soil extracts are correlated with those in sugar maple tissues, and what soil extractant best duplicate plant tissue Ca/Sr ratios. Leaves had higher Ca/Sr ratios than stems and the extractants did not produce equal Ca/Sr ratios: H2O had the lowest Ca/Sr, and NH4EDTA the highest. The relationships between soil extract Ca/Sr ratios and leaf and stem Ca/Sr ratios were significant and linear, but the slopes differed among extractants. The lowest slope (0.45) was observed for the water extract/leaves and the highest (2.15) for the NH4EDTA extract/stem with discrimination factors ranging from 0.22 with NH4EDTA to 1.59 for water. Leaf extracts were more strongly correlated with soil Ca/Sr than stem extracts (R 2 of 0.57–0.7 vs. R 2 of 0.45–0.6, respectively). These findings support the use of Ca/Sr ratios in plants to track their source of soil Ca, but they highlight the need to calibrate the relationships for the plant tissue and soil extractant used.  相似文献

Abstract Field water relations of Lactuca serriola serriola and L. serriola integrifolia were examined. Leaf conductance to water vapour was high early in the morning and declined rapidly during the midday hours. Leaf water potentials decreased to their minima early in the morning and remained low all day. Afternoon recovery of leaf conductance occurred occasionally. Leaf conductance was shown to have a linear response to vapour concentration difference. No differences were seen between L. serriola serriola and L. serriola integrifolia. The pattern of diurnal gas-exchange activity appeared to be complemented by the pattern of intercepted solar irradiance which results from the compass plant leaf orientation observed in L. serriola.  相似文献

At Mono Lake, California, we investigated field water relations, leaf and xylem chemistry, and gas exchange for two shrub species that commonly co-occur on marginally saline soils, and have similar life histories and rooting patterns. Both species had highest root length densities close to the surface and have large tap roots that probably reach ground water at 3.4-5.0 m on the study site. The species differed greatly in leaf water relations and leaf chemistry. Sarcobatus vermiculatus had a seasonal minimum predawn xylem pressure potential (ψpd) of -2.7 MPa and a midday potential (ψmd) of -4.1 MPa. These were significantly lower than for Chrysothamnus nauseosus, which had a minimum ψpd of -1.0 MPa and ψmd of -2.2 MPa. Sarcobatus had leaf Na of up to 9.1 % and K up to 2.7 % of dry mass, and these were significantly higher than for Chrysothamnus which had seasonal maxima of 0.4% leaf Na and 2.4 % leaf K. The molar ratios of leaf K/Na, Ca/Na, and Mg/Na were substantially lower for Sarcobatus than for Chrysothamnus. Xylem ionic contents indicated that both species excluded some Na at the root, but that Chrysothamnus was excluding much more than Sarcobatus. The higher Na content of Sarcobatus leaves was associated with greater leaf succulence, lower calculated osmotic potential, and lower xylem pressure potentials. Despite large differences in water relations and leaf chemistry, these species maintained similar diurnal patterns and rates of photosynthesis and stomatal conductance to water vapor diffusion. Sarcobatus ψpd may not reflect soil moisture availability due to root osmotic and hydraulic properties.  相似文献

Summary The effect of increasing rates of nitrogen (N) and sulphur (S) as fertilizers on the yield, leaf area and N, P, S, Ca, Mg, NO3 and SO4 = content in leaves of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris, L.) were studied in a hydroponic culture experiment under greenhouse conditions. Bean plants responded significantly to all treatments with differents N/S ratios. When plants grew with high N/S ratios, the leaf content of N, Ca and NO3 increased while the content of K, P and SO4 = decreased. However, optimal yield and leaf area were not obtained. Optimal leaf and fruit dry matter was obtained at N/S ratio value of 1.41. When lower N/S rates were used, optimal leaf and fruit dry matter was only observed when the leaf N/S ratio was between 15 and 16. At high sulphate levels in the nutrient solution there is no interaction with nitrate which is easily observed, resulting in an increase in yield. An interaction between nitrate and sulphate in the nutrient solution was found at a N/S ratio of 0.81 which produced in leaves a synergic effect between P-K, an antagonistic effect between N-P and N-K and a lower yield. This research was supported by Fundacion ‘Ramon Areces’.  相似文献

Eight cultivars/lines of Gossypium hirsutum (CIM-443, CIM-448, CIM-1100, FH-634, S-111, S-113, Cedix, and LRA 5166) resistant to cotton leaf curl virus (CLCuV), one moderately-resistant (cv. NIAB-Krishma), and one susceptible (cv. S-12) were used. All the resistant lines remained free of all disease symptoms, whereas in moderately-resistant and susceptible cvs. leaf curling and vein thickening occurred. Cultivars with varying degree of CLCuV-resistance had different pattern of accumulation of macronutrients. Leaf N content was lowest in S-12, but increased considerably due to disease. Leaf K and Ca contents of S-12 were lower in the diseased leaves than in healthy ones. Chlorophyll a and b contents were highest in lines S-111, S-113 and S-12. A marked reduction in chlorophyll b content was observed in the diseased leaves of S-12. Leaf water potential in S-12 and NIAB-Krishma was also decreased due to disease. The most distinctive characteristic to differentiate between lines was epicuticular wax content, since all the resistant lines had considerably higher wax content on their leaf surfaces than the moderately-resistant or susceptible cultivars. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献
