Erect panicle rice cultivars utilize solar energy effectively and have improved ecological growing conditions. Among such cultivars, Shennong265 has been grown successfully throughout Northern China. Nevertheless, no studies have yet examined the relationships between crop dry matter productivity, weather conditions, and nitrogen uptake of the erect panicle type rice cultivar in Japan. The objective of our study was to evaluate the productivity of erect panicle rice Shennong265 in Western Japan under varied conditions. Three rice cultivars, Shennong265, Nipponbare, and Takanari were grown in the field under different fertilizer and plant density conditions in Western Japan; using this information, we compared yield and growth characteristics of Shennong265 with those of Nipponbare and Takanari. Although Shennong265 had radiation use efficiency similar to that of the high yielding cultivar (Takanari) and much higher leaf nitrogen content than Takanari and Nipponbare, the average grain yield of Shennong265 grown under normal fertilizer and plant density conditions was approximately 6.9 t ha?1 as against 6.2 t ha?1 for Nipponbare and 9.6 t ha?1 for Takanari. These results suggest that, while Shennong265 has a high yield potential, the environmental conditions including climate, fertilizer, and planting period provided in this study were not suitable for achieving its maximum yield. The reduced performance of Shennong265 may be caused by insufficient fertilizer after heading and by shorter growth periods, as well as by the climate of Western Japan. Additional fertilizer application during the heading stage and earlier transplanting may be needed to obtain higher Shennong265 yields in Western Japan.  相似文献

C4 plants show higher photosynthetic capacity and productivity than C3 plants owing to a CO2-concentrating mechanism in leaves, which reduces photorespiration. However, which traits regulate the photosynthetic capacity of C4 plants remains unclear. We investigated structural, biochemical, and physiological traits associated with photosynthesis and resource use efficiency in 20 accessions of 12 species of Amaranthus, NAD-malic enzyme-type C4 dicots. Net photosynthetic rate (PN) ranged from 19.7 to 40.5 μmol m?2 s?1. PN was positively correlated with stomatal conductance and nitrogen and chlorophyll contents of leaves and was weakly positively correlated with specific leaf weight. PN was also positively correlated with the activity of the C3 enzyme ribulose-1,5-bisphoshate carboxylase/oxygenase, but not with the activities of the C4 enzymes phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase and NAD-malic enzyme. Structural traits of leaves (stomatal density, guard cell length, leaf thickness, interveinal distance, sizes of mesophyll and bundle sheath cells and the area ratio between these cells) were not significantly correlated with PN. These data suggest that some of the biochemical and physiological traits are involved in interspecific PN variation, whereas structural traits are not directly involved. Photosynthetic nitrogen use efficiency ranged between 260 and 458 μmol mol?1 N s?1. Photosynthetic water use efficiency ranged between 5.6 and 10.4 mmol mol?1. When these data were compared with previously published data of C4 grasses, it is suggested that common mechanisms may determine the variations in resource use efficiency in grasses and this dicot group.  相似文献

Crop physiological traits of Liangyoupeijiu, a “super” hybrid rice variety recently bred in China, were compared with those of Takanari and Nipponbare in 2003 and 2004 in Kyoto, Japan. Liangyoupeijiu showed a significantly higher grain yield than Nipponbare in both years, and achieved a grain yield of 11.8 t ha−1 in 2004, which is the highest yield observed under environmental conditions in Kyoto. Liangyoupeijiu had longer growth duration and larger leaf area duration (LAD) before heading, causing larger biomass accumulation before heading than the other two varieties. Liangyoupeijiu had a large number of grains and translocated a large amount of carbohydrates from the vegetative organ to the panicle during the grain filling period. The three yield components measured were panicle weight at heading (P0), the amount of carbohydrates translocated from the leaf and stem to the panicle during the grain filling period (ΔT), and the newly assimilated carbohydrates during grain filling (ΔW). It was found that the sum of P0 and ΔT were strongly correlated with grain yield when all the data (n = 8) were combined (r = 0.876**). However, there was no significant difference in the radiation use efficiency (RUE) of the whole growth period between Liangyoupeijiu and Nipponbare for both years. Even though the growth duration was shorter, Takanari, an indica/japonica cross-bred variety, showed a similar yield to Liangyoupeijiu in both years. The mean RUE of the whole growth period was significantly higher in Takanari, 1.60 and 1.64 g MJ−1 in 2003 and 2004, respectively, than in Liangyoupeijiu, which had a RUE of 1.46 and 1.52 g MJ−1 in 2003 and 2004, respectively. The high grain yield of Takanari was mainly due to its high RUE compared with Liangyoupeijiu and its large P0 and ΔT. Our result showed that the high grain yield of Liangyoupeijiu was due to its large biomass accumulation before heading, which resulted from its large LAD rather than its RUE.  相似文献

Leaf photosynthetic potential, a major determinant of yield potential in rice, is mostly explained by stomatal conductance (gs) as well as leaf N content (Rubisco protein content). Therefore, the rapid and precise evaluation of gs as well as leaf N content would be a valuable addition to rice breeding programs aimed at improved yield potential. We established a simple method based on infrared thermography to estimate varietal differences in gs. Seven rice varieties were cultivated in two-row plots in 2007, and canopy temperatures in three varieties, including a control variety, Koshihikari, were simultaneously measured to determine canopy temperature difference (CTd) between Koshihikari and the other varieties on clear days. The varieties Takanari, Habataki, and TUAT1-5-6a displayed significantly (P < 0.05) lower leaf temperature and higher gs and leaf photosynthetic rate (Pn) than Koshihikari. CTd was closely correlated with gs and Pn. These results indicate that CTd may be useful as a relative index to estimate varietal differences in gs. A significant CTd was still observed even under cloudy conditions in 2008. Takanari and TUAT1-5-6a had lower leaf temperature than Koshihikari on cloudy days as well as on clear days. Subsequent investigation of photosynthetic light response curves revealed that Takanari and TUAT1-5-6a had higher gs and Pn than Koshihikari under lower irradiance. These results suggest that infrared thermography may be a simple method of evaluating varietal differences in gs through CTd, and that it may be practicable even under cloudy conditions.  相似文献

Abstract

In the afternoon when air humidity decreases, leaf photosynthetic rate (Pn) often declines in rice grown under irrigated conditions. To clarify the genotypic difference of Pn in response to humidity, we measured Pn and stomatal conductance (gs) for nine rice varieties with diverse genetic backgrounds, at various vapor pressure differences (VPD) and developmental stages. Pn and gs of all the varieties decreased with VPD increase from 1.0 to 2.3 kPa of VPD. The variety with high gs at low VPD exhibited a greater decline of gs with VPD increase than the variety with low gs, but cv. Takanari showed the highest gs under altered VPD conditions. Significant logarithmic relations were found between the decreased Pn and gs at the respective developmental stages, suggesting that gs is the dominant factor determining Pn and its response to VPD change. To explicate the effect of decreased gs on Pn, we analyzed the relations by using the model that accurately estimated the genotypic difference in Pn at a low VPD with gs and leaf nitrogen content per unit leaf area in the previous study. The model assuming that leaf internal conductance (gw) remains unchanged well explained the decreased Pn at high VPDs by gs change alone. The analysis also suggested the constancy of gw and carboxylation capacity at high VPD. It is concluded that the genotypic difference in the decrease of Pn at a high VPD is brought mainly by that in decreased gs, and the varieties with a high gs always exhibit a high Pn owing to their relatively high gs at either high or low VPD environments.  相似文献

C4 plants show higher photosynthetic capacity and resource use efficiency than C3 plants. However, the genetic variations of these traits and their regulatory factors in C4 plants still remain to be resolved. We investigated physiological, biochemical, and structural traits involved in photosynthesis and photosynthetic water and nitrogen use efficiencies (PWUE and PNUE) in 22 maize lines and four teosinte lines from various regions of the world. Net photosynthetic rate (PN) ranged from 32.1 to 46.5 μmol m?2 s?1. PN was positively correlated with stomatal conductance, transpiration rate, and chlorophyll, nitrogen and soluble protein contents of leaves, but not with specific leaf weight. PN was positively correlated with the activities of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase and the C4-acid decarboxylases, NADP-malic enzyme and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, but not with the activity of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase. Leaf structural traits (stomatal parameters, leaf thickness, and interveinal distance) were not correlated with PN. These data suggest that physiological and biochemical traits are involved in the genetic variation of PN, but structural traits are not directly involved. PWUE is in the lower class of values reported for C4 plants, whereas PNUE is in the highest class of values reported for C4 plants. PNUE was negatively correlated with leaf nitrogen content but not significantly correlated with PN. PWUE was not correlated with δ13C values of leaves, indicating difficulty in using δ13C values as an indicator of PWUE of maize. In general, teosinte lines showed lower PN but higher PWUE than maize lines.  相似文献

Daily net canopy photosynthesis (Pn) of cocksfoot (Dactylis glomerata L.) was predicted for combinations of temperature, herbage nitrogen (N) concentration and water status from the integration of models of leaf photosynthesis of the light‐saturated photosynthetic rate (Pmax), photosynthetic efficiency (α) and the degree of curvature (θ) of leaf light‐response curves. The effect on Pn, maximum Pn (Pn max) and the optimum leaf area index (LAI at Pn max) was examined when any one of these factors was limiting. The ranges that gave the optimum values of Pn (Pn max = 30·8–33·5 g CO2m?2 d?1) for temperature (19–22°C) and N concentration (40–50 g N kg?1 DM) were smaller than those for net leaf photosynthesis. Also, Pn fell to 0 at a lower level of water stress (pre‐dawn leaf water potential, ψlp = ?12·5 bar) than for Pmax. The canopy photosynthesis model was then used to compare predicted and measured dry matter (DM) production for cocksfoot pastures grown under a diverse range of environmental conditions with field data from New Zealand and Argentina. To predict DM production leaf area index and leaf canopy angle were included from field measurements. The model explained about 0·85 of the variation in cocksfoot DM production for the range of 6·5–134 kg DM ha?1 d?1. The canopy model overestimated the DM production by 0·10 which indicates that a further Pmax function for leaves of different ages and a partitioning sub‐model may be needed to improve predictions of DM production.  相似文献

为准确估算冬小麦旗叶光饱和点的范围,采用Li-6400-40荧光探头提供不同光合有效辐射强度,同步测量了不同品种(系)、不同时期(抽穗期、开花期和灌浆期)、不同CO2浓度及不同施氮量下小麦旗叶的气体交换和荧光参数。结果表明,运用直角双曲线修正模型拟合的饱和光强与实际观测值较为接近。外界CO2浓度和施氮量对小麦旗叶光饱和点具有较大影响,低CO2浓度(300 μmol·mol-1)和低施氮量(70 kg·hm-2)下光饱和点均比较低;而品种(系)间和测定时期间小麦旗叶光饱和点整体差异不明显。正常条件下,小麦旗叶的光饱和点整体集中在 1 700~2 000 mol·m-2·s-1范围,远高于目前普遍认为的1 200 mol·m-2·s-1,这与小麦叶片的阳生特点及实际观测结果相一致。早期广泛采用的老版本光合助手(Photosynthesis Assistant)的拟合结果明显低于观测值(P<0.05)。综合试验结果推测,早期光饱和点的研究结果偏低可能与测量CO2浓度、氮素营养以及所用的拟合模型等因素有关。  相似文献

Abstract

The effects of flag leaves and panicles on canopy photosynthesis in a leading cultivar (Nipponbare) and two high-yielding rice cultivars (Takanari and Ghugoku 117) bred in Japan were compared. The total dry matter production was in the order of Takanari > Ghugoku 117 > Nipponbare. Canopy photosynthesis was highest in Takanari throughout the growth season, and was higher in Chugoku 117 than in Nipponbare during the ripening period. The photosynthetic rate in the flag leaf was in the order of Nipponbare > Takanari > Chugoku 117. The light extinction coefficient of canopy was higher in Takanari than in the others. At the middle ripening stage, canopy photosynthesis increased 35 and 17% in Nipponbare and Takanari, respectively, by the removal of panicles and decreased 37 and 48%, respectively, by the removal of flag leaves. In Chugoku 117, canopy photosynthesis was hardly influenced by these treatments. Clearly, the panicles intercept more radiation at the upper layer of the canopy in Nipponbare than in Takanari and flag leaves contribute more to canopy photosynthesis in Takanari than in Nipponbare. However, these effects were small in Chugoku 117. In conclusion, Takanari produces more dry matter than the others due to larger, wider, longer and more erect 1st (flag) and 2nd leaves above the panicles, which intercept more radiation. Chugoku 117 had erect panicles which allowed more radiation to penetrate into the deeper layer of the canopy, resulting in a high dry matter production. The lower panicle height relative to leaf layer and erect panicles are important characteristics for higher yield in rice.  相似文献

The newly developed rice variety ‘Akidawara’ (AKI) combines the traits of high yield and highly palatability, and its cultivation is expected to spread. We examined characteristics of growth and quality, and factors contributing to high yield in AKI by comparing with ‘Nipponbare’ (NIP). Grain yield for AKI were 703 g m?2 (9% more than NIP) and 781 g m?2 (14% more than NIP) under the standard and heavy fertilizer regimes. It was also suggested that increase in the sink capacity was the key contributors to the high yield in AKI resulting from a conspicuous increase in the number of spikelets, which is likely due to introgression of the high-yielding variety allele. Furthermore, AKI achieved the similar degree of sink filling in spite of its larger sink capacity. In this point, panicle dry weight increase during ripening (ΔP) was significantly higher for AKI than for NIP despite the fact that no differences in shoot dry weight increase were observed between varieties. The greater ΔP in AKI might be derived from its larger sink capacity and the difference between varieties involves the translocation of nonstructural carbohydrate. In the grain quality, the reduction in perfect grain ratio was negligible and regarded as a small trade-off for AKI’s 14% increase in yield, and grain protein content increased to a lesser degree in AKI at the same yield level. These results suggest that over 700 g m?2 high yield can be achieved with relative high grain quality and lower protein content in AKI.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Oil pollution is a worldwide threat to the environment that affects the development of plants. The effect of soil contaminated by diesel on the physiological responses of seedlings of Quercus oleoides was investigated in two independent experiments. We proposed that physiological performance will decrease when seedlings are exposed to higher concentration of contamination. At the first experiment, levels of pollution with diesel were of 0%, 5%, 10% and 15%, and 0%, 2% and 3.5% in the second one. In the first experiment, photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, transpiration and total chlorophyll of Q. oleoides were higher in the control seedling, and lower in treatments of pollution with 5%, 10% and 15% of diesel during 3 days of treatment. Only, seedlings in soil polluted with 5% of diesel survived up to 16 days; they showed a photosynthetic rate of 5 μmol m?2 s?1, which was lower than control seedlings (9 μmol m?2 s?1). This pattern was observed in stomatal conductance, transpiration and relative water content. Surprisingly, in the second experiment, seedlings showed a higher photosynthetic rate and growth at 2% of diesel-contaminated soil than control seedlings, a phenomenon known as hormesis. In both experiments, soil respiration was proportional to soils contaminated. We concluded that Q. oleoides is highly vulnerable in soils contaminated with above 5% of diesel, but it maintains its physiological activities in soils contaminated below 2%, suggesting that seedlings can grow under low concentration of diesel contaminant, and may be used in phytoremediation of soils with low concentrations of diesel contamination.  相似文献

High-yielding rice varieties require a large accumulation of N in panicles. The objectives of this study were to clarify the change in N allocation during the ripening period (Exp. 1) and to quantify the contribution of N absorbed during the ripening period to panicle N at maturity (Exp. 2) in the high-yielding variety Takanari in comparison with that in Nipponbare as a control. In Exp. 1, 15N-labeled N (15N) was applied at heading to investigate the distribution of newly absorbed N as well as the allocation of plant N. In Exp. 2, split 15N application was performed during the filling period to estimate the above contribution. In Exp. 1, the allocation of plant N and absorbed 15N to the panicles was larger and that to the leaves was smaller in Takanari than in Nipponbare during the ripening period, although Takanari accumulated more N at maturity. The difference in N allocation suggested that the difference in N demand in panicles would be larger than that in N uptake. In Exp. 2, the varietal difference in the grain filling duration was observed: Nipponbare accumulated little N in the panicles after 28 d after heading (DAH), while Takanari accumulated about a quarter of its panicle N during that time. An estimate showed that in Takanari, 13.5% of the panicle N was derived from N absorbed after 28 DAH. These results suggest that the utilization of newly absorbed N until a later period after heading is important for the achievement of high yields.  相似文献

A simple multiplicative model using temperature, foliage nitrogen (N) concentration and water status was developed to predict the maximum photosynthetic rate (Pmax) of field‐grown cocksfoot (Dactylis glomerata L.) leaves when none, one, two or all the factors were limiting. The highest Pmax was 27·4 μmol CO2 m–2 s?1 in non‐limited conditions, which was defined as the standardized Pmax value dimensionless (Pmaxs=1). Pmaxs increased 0·058 units per °C from 10°C to the optimum range (19–23°C) (Pmaxs=1) and then declined 0·077 units of Pmaxs per °C from 23 to 31°C. Pmaxs=1 was also measured from 59 to 52 g N kg?1 dry matter (DM) foliage N. Pmaxs then decreased at the rate of 0·115 units per 10 g N kg?1 DM from 52 to 26 g N kg?1 DM, and 0·409 units of Pmaxs per 10 g N kg?1 DM from 26 to 15 g N kg?1 DM. For predawn leaf water potential (ψlp), Pmaxs=1 was measured from ?0·1 to ?1·2 bar but declined linearly at a rate of 0·078 units per bar of ψlp from ?1·2 to ?14·0 bar because of a linear decrease in stomatal conductance. An interaction between low N content (≤20 g N kg?1 DM) and high temperature (>23°C) was also detected. Together, this multiplicative model accounted for 0·82 of the variation in Pmaxs.  相似文献

Maximum light‐saturated photosynthetic rate (Pmax) and stomatal conductance (gs) of field‐grown cocksfoot (Dactylis glomerata L.) leaves in a silvopastoral system were measured at different times under moderate (850–950 µmol m?2 s?1 photosynthetic photon flux density, PPFD) and severe shade (85–95 µmol m?2 s?1 PPFD). Also Pmax and gs were measured after 30, 60 and 180 min of severe shade to determine the lag in the rise of photosynthesis rate from low to high irradiance levels (induction state). The highest Pmax and gs values obtained were 26·5 µmol CO2 m?2 s?1 and 0·41 mol H2O m?2 s?1 in non‐limiting conditions with full sunlight (1900 µmol m?2 s?1 PPFD). These values were defined as standardized dimensionless Pmaxs=1 and gss=1 for comparison of treatment effects. The Pmaxs under severe shade decreased by 0·004 units per minute from 1 to 180 min and reached a steady‐state of 0·37 units after 140 min. Under moderate shade, Pmaxs decreased by 0·002 units per minute from 1 to 120 min and reached a steady‐state of 0·76 units. The time required to reach full induction on return to full sun (Pmaxs=1) was 15 min after 30 min of severe shade and 37 min after 180 min of shade. Mathematical equations were derived to describe the changes in Pmaxs and gss under severe and moderate shade and during induction. The rate of change of gss was slower than for Pmaxs on entering shade and also slower during the subsequent induction process. This indicated other factors in addition to gs were operating in the reduction and increment of Pmax and a two‐step model to explain this is proposed. The defined photosynthetic responses of cocksfoot leaves to fluctuating light regimes could be used to develop quantitative predictions of Pmax for inclusion in a canopy photosynthesis model of silvopastoral systems.  相似文献

Summary

The transpiration or photosynthesis decline curve of excised plant leaves has been used to predict water stress tolerance ability. This study analyzed the characteristics of the declining photosynthetic rate in excised leaves of sweet corn (Zea mays L.) plants after treatment with effective microorganisms (EM), a mixed culture of naturally occurring beneficial microorganisms, organic fertilizer (Bokashi) and chemical fertilizer. The net photosynthetic rates (P N) of intact leaves were measured using LI-6400 gas exchange system under 2000 μmol m?2 s?1 PPF. When P N reached the maximum (P max), the leaf was excised and P N was continuously monitored. A declining P N curve with time is obtained and modeled according to P N = [Pmax - P res (1 - βt)] e?α(t-τ) + P res (1 - βt), where t is the time elapsed after the leaf was excised; τ is the time point when the stomata begin to close; P res is the residual P N when stomatal closure completed; and α and β are constants related to stomatal and residual conductances respectively. Photosynthesis maintenance ability (PMA) is expressed as 1/(α+ β). Leaves of plants fertilized with organic materials and/or treated with EM showed a higher PMA and P N than the controls after the leaves were excised.  相似文献

Water logging and salinity often occur together because rising water table brings salt to the surface. We studied the effects of a range of low soil matric suctions (or nearly paddy condition) (2–33 kPa) and salinity (EC = 0.7–8 dS m?1 for bean and 2–20 dS m?1 for wheat) on the root respiration (Rr) in two sandy loam and clay loam soils at greenhouse condition. Results showed that the aeration porosity mainly controls Rr especially at 2 kPa matric suction. As matric suction increases, soil aeration rises and consequently the Rr reaches maximum values (7.9 μmol m?3 s?1 for bean and wheat) at 6 and 10 kPa suctions in clay loam and sandy loam soils, respectively. Using a mechanistic soil respiration model reveals that these matric suctions, h, are corresponded to the aeration porosities of 0.18 m3 m?3 in sandy loam and 0.16 m3 m?3 in clay loam soils. Bean and wheat Rr remains nearly constant at higher suctions (h > 10 kPa) in sandy loam and decreases slightly in clay loam soil. Gas diffusivity and the root surface area may explain the variation of the Rr between the sandy loam and the clay loam soils. Results showed that the salinity (EC = 6–8 dS m?1 for bean and EC = 16–20 dS m?1 for wheat) amplifies the effect of aeration stress at 2 kPa matric suction in both soils. We also observed a strong correlation between root surface area, Rs, and the Rr for all experiments. We concluded that the aeration deficit is not only major factor determining differential plant respiration under adverse stress conditions, and the salinity has a pronounced impact on differences in crop physiological responses.  相似文献

Abstract

Effects of nitrogen (N) deficiency on photosynthetic gas exchange and photosystem II (PSII) photochemistry of flag leaves during grain-filling stage were investigated in six rice cultivars, Kasalath (a conventional indica), IR36 (an improved indica), Shirobeniya (a conventional japonica), Nipponbare (an improved japonica), Akenohoshi (an improved japonica-indica intermediate type) and BSI429 (an improved tropical japonica, a new plant type line) grown hydroponically in N-sufficient (NS) and N-deficient (ND) solution. From 3 to 24 days after heading (DAH), net photosynthetic rate (Pn), maximum quantum yield of photosystem II (PSII) (Fv/Fm), quantum yield of PSII electron transport ( Φpsii), and contents of chlorophyll (Chl) and ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) in the flag leaves decreased, particularly under the ND condition in all six cultivars. A substantial difference was observed among the ND plants for the sustainability index (SI, the ratio of the value at 24 DAH to that at 3 DAH) of Pn, Fv/Fm, Φpsii, Chl content and Rubisco content; SIs of those parameters of Akenohoshi, BSI429, Nipponbare and Shirobeniya were higher than those of IR36 and Kasalath. The SI of Pn showed significant positive correlations with those of Fv/Fm, Φpsii, and the contents of Chl and Rubisco under the ND condition. It was concluded that the sustainability of photosynthesis in the flag leaves was mainly due to those of PSII photochemistry and electron transport, which was associated with the maintenance of Chl and Rubisco under the ND condition.  相似文献

While many plants accumulate the majority of their photoassmilates as starch during the daytime, some plants accumulate sucrose. Although the existence of these high-sucrose leaves, called ‘sugar leaves’, has long been known, the physiological characteristics of sugar leaves compared to ‘starch leaves’ remain unclear. In this study, the physiological roles of starch accumulation in rice, which has typical sugar leaves, were investigated using a mutant with suppressed leaf-starch biosynthesis. When grown under controlled conditions with light intensity of 400 μmol m?2 s?1, the initial growth of the mutant was similar to that of the wild-type plant, even with a 6-h-light/18-h-dark photoperiod in which carbon resources for growth are required during the night. This finding indicates that rice does not rely on leaf starch as a carbon resource during the night. By contrast, under field conditions, the grain yields of the mutant were significantly lower than those of the wild type only when the plants were exposed to full sunlight during the ripening period. These results may indicate that starch accumulation in sugar leaves plays an important role in maintaining a high source capacity under sufficient light conditions rather than as a carbon resource for the plant’s growth at night.  相似文献

We investigated the effect of poultry manure (PM) on the occurrence and early growth of Monochoria vaginalis in relation to soil solution electrical conductivity (SSEC). PM was applied at rates corresponding to 0 g of nitrogen (N) m?2 (PM-0), 1 g N m?2 (PM-1), 3 g N m?2 (PM-3), and 5 g N m?2 (PM-5). At 7 d post-seeding, the soil solution was sampled to measure EC, and also the emergence and growth of M. vaginalis were evaluated. The emergence rate of M. vaginalis decreased with increasing application rate of PM and SSEC. SSEC was significantly negatively correlated with the emergence rate of M. vaginalis seedlings. The average leaf number and length of M. vaginalis did not differ between PM-0, PM-1, and PM-3, but were significantly lower in PM-5. In summary, PM would allow to better control the emergence and early growth of M. vaginalis.  相似文献
