Manganese (Mn) deficiency is a widespread problem on the alkaline soils, particularly for durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var. durum), which is more sensitive than either bread wheat or barley. The existence of considerable genetic variation in current germplasm of durum wheat (a relative yield of 58% in Stojocri 2 compared to 15% in check cv Yallaroi) and the development of a consistent selection criterion (Mn content of 35‐day‐old seedlings) has made breeding for Mn efficiency feasible. The development of Mn‐efficient durum wheat would be facilitated if the mode of inheritance was well understood. F1 hybrid, F2, and F2‐derived families from a cross between Stojocri 2 (moderately efficient) and Hazar (inefficient) were studied under controlled‐environment conditions. F1 hybrid was intermediate to the parents, indicating incomplete dominance and dependence on external Mn concentration. Analysis of 110 F2 and 220 F3 single plants (including 20 F2‐derived F3 families) showed that the observed variance was in agreement with the expected variance of a population segregating for two genes. Chi‐square analysis of the segregation ratios of F3 families also supported the digenic segregation hypothesis. Currently Stojocri 2 is used in a breeding program for the transfer of Mn efficiency to commercial varieties, by backcrossing (two backcrosses retain about 88% of recurrent parent genotype).  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Iron (Fe) in the embryo fraction of soybean (Glycine max L.) seed is important for seedling growth. Seed Fe accumulation in 27 soybean genotypes differing in seed size was studied at two field locations. Mean seed weight was 148 mg seed?1 with mean individual genotypic values ranging from 68 to 217 mg seed?1. Percentage of total seed dry matter in the seed-coat fraction, which was inversely correlated with individual seed weight, was 8.2%, with mean individual genotypic values ranging from 7.0% to 12.4%. Mean seed-Fe concentration [Fe] was 65 μg Fe g?1, with individual genotypic values ranging from 48 to 81 μg Fe g?1. Seed Fe relative to dry-matter distribution was much more concentrated in seed coats than in embryos of all genotypes. Mean percentage of total seed Fe located in the seed-coat fraction was 29%, with mean genotypic values ranging from 23% to 38%. Neither seed-Fe characteristic was correlated with individual seed weight. Seed [Fe] was not correlated with seed-manganese (Mn) concentration [Mn]. Mean seed [Fe] for the 27 genotypes was different at the two locations, presumably due to differences in available soil Fe. Both genotype and environment affected seed [Fe] of soybean. Soybean seed coats, a major by-product after oil extraction, are a possible rich source of Fe for human nutrition.  相似文献

Responses of narrow‐leafed sweet lupins (Lupinus angustifolius L.) to foliar sprays of different sources of manganese (Mn) were compared in field experiments in three years at six sites in Western Australia. The relative effectiveness of manganese chelate (EDTA; 14% Mn) and manganese sulfate (25% Mn) applied as foliar sprays for alleviating Mn deficiency of lupins was assessed. Each source was sprayed at six levels of Mn (0, 0.125, 0.250, 0.50, 1.0, and 2 kg Mn/ha) when pods on the main stem were 2–3 cm long to define the relationship between seed and the amount of foliar Mn applied for lupins grown on Mn‐deficient soil. Manganese chelate, manganese sulfate, and the Mangasol sprays were equally effective. For all sources, 1.0 kg Mn/ha sprayed on the foliage was required to produce maximum seed yield and reduce split seed to an acceptable level (<4%). In all years, manganese sulfate banded with the seed produced similar seed yields as Mn sprayed on the foliage.  相似文献

Cotton genotypes [Gossypium hirsutum (L.)] C‐310–73,‐307 (307) and C‐Sgl, 70–517 (517), shown previously to differ in tolerance to an acid (pH 5.1), high manganese (Mn) Grenada soil from Arkansas, were grown in nutrient solutions containing variable concentrations of excess Mn to confirm and characterize their postulated differences in Mn tolerance. Based on crinkle leaf symptoms and leaf dry weights, the 307 genotype was significantly more tolerant than 517 to 4, 8, or 16 mg Mn/L at a maintained pH of 4.6 (Experiment 1) and also to 4 or 8 mg Mn/L at an initial pH of 5.0, not subsequently adjusted (Experiment 2). In Experiment 1, the relative leaf dry weight (wt. with no Mn/wt. with 8 mg Mn/L × 100) was 94% for genotype 307 and only 27% for 517. In Experiment 2, the corresponding relative leaf weights were 75% and 26% for 307 and 517, respectively. Plant analytical results indicated that the 307 genotype tolerates a higher concentration of Mn in its leaves than does 517. This failure to correlate Mn tolerance with Mn concentrations in plant shoots agrees with previous findings when these two genotypes were grown in acid Grenada soil. Iron (Fe) concentrations, Fe/Mn ratios, and magnesium (Mg) concentrations were higher in the Mn‐tolerant 307 than in the Mn‐sensitive 517, but concentrations of phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), copper (Cu), and zinc (Zn) were not related to Mn tolerance. Because differential Mn tolerance in these two genotypes is associated with differential internal tolerance to excess Mn, rather than differential Mn uptake, studies are needed to determine the chemical forms of Mn in tolerant and sensitive plants whose leaves contain comparable concentrations of total Mn. Because both Mn and Fe (closely related elements in the Mn toxicity syndrome) have spin resonances, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) offers promise in attacking the problem of differential Mn tolerance in plants.  相似文献

Identification of cotton genotypes more tolerant of toxic concentrations of soil solution manganese (Mn2+) would integrate well with soil ameliorations of that problem. Several quantitative and semi‐quantitative methods to determine the amount of Mn toxicity were evaluated on three genotypes of Gossypium hirsutum (LaDSIS 12513, LaDASS 5175, and Coker gl 79–501) and one genotype of Gossypium barbadense (Pitnas S‐5). Specific leaf weight (SLW) and the semi‐quantitative, ‘percentage of leaves that were damaged’ (PLD) correlated the least with other methods of Mn toxicity determination. Neither SLW or PLD provided more separation between genotypes than area/leaf (AL), peroxidase (POD) activity, and indole‐3‐acetic acid oxidase (IAAO) activity. Similar genotype separations occurred for AL, POD, and IAAO at 10 mg/L Mn in solution, but POD and IAAO produced more genotype separations than AL at 5 mg/L of Mn. There were differences in enzyme activity between genotypes at control (0.25 mg/L) Mn solution concentration, making assessment difficult, especially between species. Barring this caveat, the relatively fast POD activity assay was considered to be the best method since it paralleled activity of IAAO, the functional enzyme of Mn toxicity, which had a relatively slow assay method.  相似文献

Waterlogging results in high shoot concentrations of iron (Fe), aluminum (Al), and manganese (Mn) in wheat grown in acidic soil. The verification of this observation in several acidic soils, development of screening techniques, and identification of genotypes differing in tolerance made it possible to test whether tolerance of ion toxicities improves performance of wheat in waterlogged acid soils. Six wheat varieties selected for tolerance/intolerance of Al, Mn, and Fe were grown in three acidic soils (pHCaCl2 4.1–4.3) with or without waterlogging for 40 d. In terms of relative shoot dry weight, Al‐, Mn‐, and Fe‐tolerant genotypes tolerated waterlogging better, outperforming intolerant genotypes by 35%, 53%, and 32%, respectively, across the soils. The Al‐tolerant genotype had up to 1.8‐fold better root growth than the intolerant genotype under waterlogging. Waterlogging increased DTPA‐extractable soil Mn (71%) and Fe (89%), and increased shoot Fe (up to 7.6‐fold) and Al (up to 5.9‐fold) for different genotypes and soils. The Al‐tolerant genotype maintained lower tissue concentrations of Al as compared to intolerant genotypes during waterlogging. Waterlogging delayed crop development but distinctly less so in the tolerant than in the intolerant genotypes, thus jeopardizing the capacity of intolerant genotypes to produce yield in Mediterranean climates with dry finish of the season. Pyramiding multiple ion tolerances into current wheat varieties with desirable agronomic and quality characteristics to enhance their performance under waterlogged acid soils should be considered.  相似文献

Manganese efficiency is a term used to describe the ability of plants to obtain higher relative yields at low Mn supply compared to other species. To evaluate Mn efficiency of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and raya (Brassica juncea L.), a greenhouse pot experiment was conducted using Mn deficient Typic Ustochrept loamy sand soil, treated with 0, 50, and 100 mg Mn (kg soil)–1. In the no‐Mn treatment, wheat had produced only 30 % of its maximum dry matter yield (DMY) with a shoot concentration of 10.8 mg Mn (kg DM)–1 after 51 days of growth, while raya had produced 65 % of its maximum DMY with 13.0 mg Mn (kg DM)–1. Taking relative shoot yield as a measure of Mn efficiency, raya was more efficient than wheat. Both crops produced the maximum DMY with 50 mg Mn (kg soil)–1. Even though raya had a lower root length : DMY ratio and a higher shoot growth rate, it acquired higher Mn concentrations in the shoot than wheat under similar soil conditions, because of a 2.5 times higher Mn influx. Model calculations were used to calculate the difference of Mn solution concentration (ΔCL) between the bulk soil (CLi) and the root surface (CL0) that is needed to drive the flux by diffusion equal to the measured influx. The results showed that ΔCL was smaller than CLi, which indicates that chemical mobilization of Mn was not needed to explain the observed Mn uptake even for raya. According to these calculations, the higher Mn influx of raya was caused by more efficient uptake kinetics, allowing for a 4.5 times higher Mn influx at the same Mn concentration at the root surface.  相似文献

Improper sulfur (S) and potassium (K) fertilizer management, particularly with continued soil nutrient mining, is one of the major factors contributing to low seed yield of canola in northwestern Pakistan. A field experiment was conducted in 2007?2008 on a S and K deficient clay loam soil at the Research Farm of NWFP (Northwest Frontier Province) Agricultural University, Peshawar, Pakistan, with an objective to determine seed yield and yield components response of Brassica oilseed rape versus mustard to S and K application. Twenty treatments in a randomized complete block design were consisted of two oilseed rape (B. napus canola) and mustard (B. juncea canola) genotypes at three rates each of S (15, 30, and 45 kg S ha?1) and K (30, 60, and 90 kg K ha?1) fertilizers plus one control (no S and K applied). Seed yield and yield components increased significantly with K and S fertilization as compared to the zero-S/zero-K control. Both genotypes responded positively for seed yield and yield components to K and S fertilization, but the magnitude of response varied with levels of S and K, as well as combined K + S applications. It is concluded that a combination of 60 kg K + 30 kg S ha?1 would improve seed yield and yield components of rape and mustard in the study area and contribute significantly to increased production. Growing B. napus was better than B. juncea in the study area, because B. napus produced significantly higher seed yield and yield components than B. juncea, indicating that yield components are the most important criteria for selection of Brassica genotypes for higher seed yield.  相似文献

Manganese (Mn) is a critical regulator of many physiological defense reactions of plants to disease; and the severity of take‐all root, crown, and foot rot of cereals has been correlated with such cultural practices as form of nitrogen (N), pH adjustment, and crop rotation which all influence the availability of Mn. This study was initiated to determine if the content of Mn in seed influences the severity of take‐all. Five cultivars of soft red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were grown under two widely different ecological conditions (alkaline, low Mn soil and Mn sufficient soil) to modify their Mn seed content Four cultivars (Cardinal, Lincoln, Steele, and Twain) differed by 10 to 18 μg g‐1 in Mn seed content (0.33 to 60 ug seed‐1) while the Mn seed content of one cultivar (Caldwell) was similar from both locations. All cultivars were grown at three field locations in Indiana with natural infestations of Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici (Ggt). Under these moderately‐severe to severe disease conditions, plants from seed with the higher Mn seed content were generally more vigorous, had an average of 11% less take‐all (white heads), and yielded an average of 165 kg/ha more grain than plants from seed of the same cultivar with a lower Mn content No significant differences in vigor, yield, or take‐all severity were observed with either source of the cultivar grown from seed produced under widely different environments unless there was a significant difference in Mn seed content.  相似文献

Manganese (Mn) toxicity is an important constraint to the production of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) in tropical and subtropical soils. Amelioration of Mn toxicity by soil modification is difficult in Andosols, and liming of acid soils is often not feasible for small farmers. Substantial genetic variation for Mn tolerance exists in bean germplasm, but is difficult to assess in field trials due to interactions with several environmental factors. The objectives of this study were to identify sources of genetic tolerance to Mn toxicity and to compare their performance using three growing conditions. Contrasting genotypes were evaluated for Mn tolerance by 1) biomass accumulation under Mn stress in solution culture, 2) biomass accumulation under Mn stress in silica sand culture, and 3) seed yield of plants grown in Mn‐amended soil. Genotypes varied substantially in Mn tolerance: A‐283, BAT‐795, Dore de Kirundu, IPA‐7419, Carioca, G‐12896a, and NEP BAYO 22 were susceptible, while Argentino, BAT‐271, Calima, EMP‐84, H6 Mulatinho, and Pintado were more tolerant when tested in solution culture. Genotypic tolerance observed in solution culture correlated well with tolerance observed in silica sand. Some genotypes that performed very well in solution culture and in silica sand did suffer severe yield reduction in Mn‐amended mineral soil. Manganese toxicity reduced shoot branching resulting in fewer seeds per plant in soil grown plants. We conclude that screening of genotypes in solution culture is useful to identify sources of tolerance to Mn toxicity, but performance of those genotypes in soil might be confounded by other edaphic stresses.  相似文献

Due to potential international marketing concerns, North Dakota durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. Desf.) producers require strategies that limit cadmium (Cd) in harvested grain. These trials were conducted in order to determine the impact of type and placement of zinc (Zn) fertilizer on harvested grain seed Cd levels and to determine the best timing of foliar Zn-ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA). Foliar Zn-EDTA applied at Feekes 10 growth stage had the lowest grain Cd of 0.97 mg kg?1 when evaluating different fertilizer sources and application timings. Application of 22.4 kg ha?1 potassium chloride with the seed at planting resulted in the highest grain Cd of 0.151 mg kg?1 and might be a concern when environmental conditions are conducive for Cd uptake from soil. Stepwise linear regression determined that soil pH and chloride explained 96% of the variability of grain Cd. Applying 1.1 kg Zn ha?1 as foliar Zn-EDTA in combination with 33 kg nitrogen ha?1 at Feekes 10.54 growth stage resulted in significantly lower grain Cd, and significantly higher grain Zn, iron, and protein content. Treatments that significantly lowered grain Cd did not decrease grain yield, test weight, or protein content. The treatments that most reduced grain Cd resulted in the most benefits from a production, marketing, and nutritional standpoint and represents an agronomic approach to biofortification of durum wheat.  相似文献

High concentrations of manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), and aluminium (Al) induced in waterlogged acid soils are a potential constraint for growing sensitive wheat cultivars in waterlogged‐prone areas of Western Australian wheat‐belt. Tackling induced ion toxicities by a genetic approach requires a good understanding of the existing variability in ion toxicity tolerance of the current wheat germplasm. A bioassay for tolerance to high concentration of Mn in wheat was developed using Norquay (Mn‐tolerant), Columbus (Mn‐intolerant), and Cascades (moderately tolerant) as control genotypes and a range of MnCl2 concentrations (2, 250, 500, 750, 1000, 2000, and 3000 μM Mn) at pH 4.8 in a nutrient solution. Increasing solution Mn concentration decreased shoot and root dry weight and intensified the development of toxicity symptoms more in the Mn‐intolerant cv. Columbus than in Norquay and Cascades. The genotypic discrimination based on relative shoot (54% to 79%) and root dry weight (17% to 76%), the development of toxicity symptoms (scores 2 to 4) and the shoot Mn concentration (1428 to 2960 mg kg–1) was most pronounced at 750 μM Mn. Using this concentration to screen 60 Australian and 6 wheat genotypes from other sources, a wide variation in relative root dry weight (11% to 95%), relative shoot dry weight (31% to 91%), toxicity symptoms (1.5 to 4.5), and shoot Mn concentration (901 to 2695 mg kg–1) were observed. Evidence suggests that Mn tolerance has been introduced into Australian wheat through CIMMYT germplasm having “LERMO‐ROJO” within their parentage, preserved either through a co‐tolerance to Mn deficiency or a process of passive selection for Mn tolerance. Cultivars Westonia and Krichauff expressed a high level of tolerance to both Mn toxicity and deficiency, whereas Trident and Janz (reputed to be tolerant to Mn deficiency) were intolerant to Mn toxicity, suggesting that tolerance to excess and shortage of Mn are different, but not mutually exclusive traits. The co‐tolerance for Mn and Al in ET8 (an Al‐tolerant near‐isogenic line) and the absence of Mn tolerance in BH1146 (an Al‐tolerant genotype from Brazil) limits the effectiveness of these indicator genotypes to environments where only one constraint is induced. Wide variation of Mn tolerance in Australian wheat cultivars will enable breeding genotypes for the genetic solution to the Mn toxicity problem.  相似文献

Abstract

Although manganese (Mn) deficiency in soybeans (Glycine max) has been recognized on the Atlantic Coastal Plain, it has not been well recognized in corn (Zea mays) until recent years. Hence, there is a lack of information relating to the diagnosis and correction of Mn deficiency in corn. Field experiments were conducted to determine if the Mn soil test interpretation for soybeans would work for corn. The leaf Mn critical level also was evaluated, as were soil and foliar application methods of correcting a deficiency. Corn yield response to Mn fertilization was best explained by both soil pH and Mehlich‐3 extractable Mn concentration. The influence of these two soil properties for predicting yield response was similar for corn and soybeans, but it appears that the soil Mn critical level is lower for corn than for soybeans. The critical Mn concentration in the ear leaf at early silking was found to be 11 mg kg‐1. Manganese banded with diammonium phosphate (DAP) was three times as effective as Mn broadcast with DAP in increasing the leaf Mn concentration of corn. Banding DAP also tends to increase the availability of native soil Mn. A foliar Mn rate of 0.6 kg ha‐1 applied once partially corrected a Mn deficiency, but multiple applications were required for optimum yield.  相似文献

High zinc (Zn) concentration of seeds has beneficial effects both on seed vigor and human nutrition. This study investigated the effect of Zn biofortification on growth of young durum wheat (Triticum durum cv. Yelken) seedlings under varied Zn and water supply. The seeds differing in Zn concentrations were obtained by spraying ZnSO4 to durum wheat plants at different rates under field conditions. Three groups of seeds were obtained with the following Zn concentrations: 9, 20, and 50 mg Zn kg?1. The seeds differing in Zn were tested for germination rate, seedling height, shoot dry matter production, and shoot Zn concentration under limited and well irrigated conditions in a Zn‐deficient soil with and without Zn application. In an additional experiment carried out in solution culture, root and shoot growth and superoxide dismutase activity (SOD) of seedlings were studied under low and adequate Zn supply. Low seed Zn concentration resulted in significant decreases in seedling height both in Zn‐deficient and sufficient soil, but more clearly under water‐limited soil condition. Decrease in seed germination due to low seed Zn was also more evident under limited water supply. Increasing seed Zn concentration significantly restored impairments in seedling development. Drought‐induced decrease in seedling growth at a given seed Zn concentration was much higher when soil was Zn‐deficient. Increasing seed Zn concentration also significantly improved SOD activity in seedlings grown under low Zn supply, but not under adequate Zn supply. The results suggest that using Zn‐biofortified seeds assures better seed vigor and seedling growth, particularly when Zn and water are limited in the growth medium. The role of a higher antioxidative potential (i.e., higher SOD activity) is discussed as a possible major factor in better germination and development of seedlings resulting from Zn‐biofortified seeds.  相似文献

Manganese (Mn) deficiency in upland rice grown after common bean or soybean, which received adequate rate of liming on highly weathered Oxisols, is observed. A greenhouse experiment was conducted to evaluate Mn‐use efficiency of 10 promising upland rice genotypes. The genotypes were grown on an Oxisol at 0 mg Mn kg?1 (natural soil Mn level) and 20 mg Mn kg?1 of soil applied as manganese sulfate. Grain yield, panicle number, and grain harvest index (GHI) were significantly (P < 0.01) influenced by genotype. However, shoot dry weight was significantly affected by Mn as well as genotype treatments. Manganese uptake in the shoot as well as in the grain was also affected by genotype treatment. On the basis of Mn‐use efficiency (mg grain weight/mg Mn accumulated in shoot and grain), genotypes were classified as efficient and responsive (ER), efficient and nonresponsive (ENR), nonefficient and responsive (NER), and nonefficient and nonresponsive (NENR). Genotypes Carisma, CNA8540, and IR42 were classified as ER, and genotypes CNA8557 and Maravilha were classified as ENR. Genotype Caipo was in the group NER, and in the NENR group were genotypes Bonança, Canastra, Caraja, and Guarani. From a practical point of view, genotypes that produce high grain yield at a low level of Mn and respond well to Mn additions are the most desirable because they are able to express their high yield potential in a wide range of Mn availability.  相似文献

Manganese (Mn) toxicity can be a growth limiting constraint for many plants grown on acid soil. Plant species/genotypes tolerant to Mn could help overcome detrimental Mn toxicity effects on plants grown on high Mn soils. Thirty‐seven sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] genotypes from a broad germplasm base were grown in solution culture (pH 4.5) with 0, 3.0, and 6.0 mM of added Mn above the basic solution concentration (18 μM) to determine genotypic differences in tolerance to excess Mn. Dry matter (DM) was used to evaluate 24‐day‐old plants (10 days in Mn treatments) for Mn toxicity responses. Wide variability among genotypes for differential DM was noted at 3.0 and 6.0 mM Mn. Sorghum generally tolerated high levels of Mn. Genotypes showing relatively high tolerance to excess Mn in solution were NB 9040, Wheatland, IS 7180, IS 7755, and IS 7809. Those genotypes showing relatively low tolerance to high Mn were ICA‐Nataima, Martin, IS 7173c (SC 283), IS 7321, IS 9187, IS 9785, and IS 9828. IS 7173c, an aluminum (Al)‐tolerant standard genotype, was sensitive to high Mn. Wide variability was noted among tissue culture generated lines derived from a common parent. Laboratory screening for tolerance to Mn toxicity was effective with sorghum, but results need to be verified in the field.  相似文献

The expression of two barley genes, Ids1 and Ids2, that were induced specifically by iron (Fe) deficiency stress in solution culture, was examined in two barley genotypes differing in manganese (Mn) efficiency. Plants were grown in a calcareous soil supplied with two levels of Mn (15 and 100 mg/kg soil). Ids1 was expressed at equal levels in the roots of both genotypes, and this expression was not affected by Mn supply. These results suggest that the expression of Ids1 probably does not contribute to Mn efficiency. A contrasting result was obtained for Ids2, which was expressed at a higher level in the roots of the Mn‐inefficient genotype than in the Mn‐efficient genotype. However, the expression levels also were not affected by Mn supply. The differential expression of Ids2 may indicate that this gene plays a role both in the Fe deficiency response and in the Mn efficiency mechanism. An interesting observation made on the time course of expression of the two genes. Initially, both genes had low expression in two week old plants and then much higher expression in three week old plants. The timing of this increase probably relates to the exhaustion of the seed Fe reserves. Therefore, our results indicate a need to consider the effect of seed nutrient content in research on the molecular basis for micronutrient acquisition.  相似文献

Summary Five bacterial strains capable of Mn reduction were isolated from the rhizosphere of plants growing in different South Australian soils. They differed in their Mn-reducing capacity. The antagonism of these strains compared to the imported strain 2–79 (from the United States) against Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici was tested in agar and in a soil sandwich experiment at different Mn2+ concentrations in the soil. In addition, wheat seeds were coated with the different strains and with MnSO4 or with MnSO4 only in order to investigate their effect on plant growth and Mn uptake. With one exception, all strains inhibited the growth of G. graminis in agar, but to different degrees. In contrast, only two strains significantly inhibited the growth of the fungus in the soil. The hyphal density was decreased more than the hyphal length. The Mn2+ concentration in the soil also had a marked effect on fungal growth; low Mn concentrations slightly increased while high Mn concentrations strongly decreased the fungal growth. Seed treatment with MnSO4 only (+Mn) increased Mn uptake above that of the control (no seed treatment). Only the weakest Mn reducer on agar significantly increased plant growth and Mn uptake from soil in comparison with the Mn treatment. One strain was tested as seed coating without adding MnSO4; it increased the plant growth to an extent similar to the Mn treatment. Increasing the Mn uptake by plants may be one of the growth-promoting effects exerted by rhizosphere bacteria.  相似文献

Manganese (Mn) deficiency is reported worldwide and often decreases crop yield. However, plant species differ in their susceptibility to Mn deficiency. Poaceae are often inefficient, whereas Brassicaceae seem to be efficient in Mn uptake. The objective of this paper was to determine the relevance of Mn‐uptake kinetics, root‐system size, and Mn mobilization for differences in Mn efficiency of wheat, oat, and raya. To determine Mn‐uptake kinetics, wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. PBW 343), raya (Brassica juncea L. cv. RLM 619), and oat (Avena sativa L. cv. Aragon) were grown in a growth chamber together in complete nutrient solution having an average Mn concentration of 90, 180, 360, 910, and 2270 nmol L–1. For determining Mn efficiency of the three species in soil, the plants were grown for 22 d in pots filled with 3 kg of a loamy soil low in Mn availability (pH (CaCl2) 7.4; DTPA‐extractable Mn: 3.5 mg (kg soil)–1). The soil was fertilized with 0, 1, 2, 4, and 8 mmol Mn (kg soil)–1 resulting in Mn soil‐solution concentrations ranging from 40 to 90 nmol L–1, hence lower than in the solution experiment. In order to determine Mn soil‐solution concentration close to the root surface, the root length density was increased by growing two plants of raya and four plants of wheat in only 250 mL soil columns for 25 d. In solution culture at high concentrations, raya showed a higher Mn uptake compared to wheat and oat. However, at low Mn supply, all three species were comparably Mn‐efficient, i.e., plant growth was similar, and also the uptake was similar. In soil, the highest yield was achieved for raya in the unfertilized treatment whereas the Poaceae needed at least a fertilization of 1 mmol Mn (kg soil)–1. The Poaceae showed a yield reduction of about 40% in the unfertilized treatment. Manganese concentration in the shoot dry weight was always higher in raya than in wheat or oat. This was due to a higher Mn uptake whereas relative shoot‐growth rate and root‐to‐shoot ratio were similar among the species. The higher Mn uptake of raya in soil was in contradiction to the comparable Mn‐uptake kinetics of the three crops at low Mn concentration in solution. This points to plant differences in their ability to affect Mn availability in the rhizosphere. In the bulk soil, all the crops decreased Mn solution concentration, but this effect was somewhat less for raya. But in the rhizosphere, raya increased Mn soil‐solution concentration significantly to 58 nmol L–1, as compared to 37 nmol L–1 of the unplanted control soil. In contrast, wheat showed a Mn solution concentration of 25 nmol L–1 which was not significantly different from the control. The results indicate that differences in Mn efficiency among the crops studied are related to their ability to affect the solubility of Mn in the rhizosphere.  相似文献

Abstract

Manganese (Mn) deficiency often occurs in crops grown on well‐limed sandy soils of the Atlantic Coastal Plain region of the United States. This study was conducted to compare the responses of established alfalfa (Medicago sativa S.) to various application methods of manganese sulfate (MnSO4) fertilizer. Experiments conducted in farmers’ fields at three New Jersey locations determined the effects of applied Mn on forage yield, tissue Mn concentration, and leaf chlorophyll meter readings. An untreated control was compared to the following treatments: foliar Mn applied once before each harvest, foliar Mn applied twice before each harvest, and a one‐time broadcast Mn application in April Or May at 22.4 kg Mn/ha to the soil surface. The rate of foliar Mn used in 1990 was 1.12 kg Mn/ha and in 1991 was 0.56 kg Mn/ha at each treatment time. Forage yield increases were greater with foliar than soil‐applied Mn but there were no differences between foliar‐applied Mn treatments. Total seasonal forage yields were increased (P<0.05) at all three locations with foliar‐applied Mn but at only one location with soil‐applied Mn. When averaged across all locations, forage yields were 6.4% higher than the control for the foliar‐applied Mn treatments compared to 2.9% higher for the soil‐applied Mn treatment. A Mn concentration of 21 mg/kg was determined as the critical level in the upper 15 cm of alfalfa tissue at the early bloom growth stage. Foliar Mn applied twice between harvests most effectively increased tissue Mn concentrations. Soil‐applied Mn initially increased tissue Mn concentration, but there was little long‐term benefit from this treatment. Applied Mn was observed to improve leaf color and chlorophyll meter readings of Mn‐deficient alfalfa. Results indicate that foliar Mn applied before each harvest was a more effective treatment for correction of Mn deficiency of alfalfa than a one‐time soil application of Mn.  相似文献
