Despite apparently inadequate N levels throughout the Inland Northwest of the United States, trees on some sites showed no increased growth 6 yr after N fertilization. Nor did higher N application rates consistently produce higher response. These facts indicated that other factors are limiting tree growth at these sites. Results suggest that K status is one important factor, influencing N fertilization response in the following general ways: (1) for stands with low pretreatment foliar K levels, the amount and duration of growth response are reduced, and higher N fertilizer rates produce less response; and (2) for all stands, growth response declines when foliar K decreases after N fertilization.  相似文献

The effect of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K) and lime additions to container-grown Schlumbergera x buckleyi were examined in two experiments. In each case rooted cuttings were grown in peat/perlite (1:1, v/v), with three plants per pot, for 17 months in a heated greenhouse. Foliage growth and flowering were strongly enhanced by added N and fertilization of between 1800 and 2200 g N m? 3 (105–130 g N m? 3 per month) and a foliar N content of 3.4–4.2% were recommended. Flowering was delayed by high N but promoted by added P. Added P also strongly influenced foliage growth and flowering but at lower rates than that for N fertilization. Recommended P rates were between 650 and 850 g P m? 3 (40–50 g P m? 3 per month) and a foliar P content of 1.3–1.5%. This species appeared tolerant of a wide range of pH levels, with a range of lime rates having no significant effect. A foliar calcium (Ca) content of 0.7% to 0.9% was suggested with a recommended media pH of 5.5–6.5. High K strongly influenced the production of stem segments and flowering in a small experiment and fertilization of 1500–2000 g K m? 3 (90–120 g K m? 3 per month) and a foliar content of 1.8–2.6% K were tentatively recommended.  相似文献

Irrigation and nitrogen fertilization are two important aspects of bell pepper production. Yet, limited information is available on the effect of irrigation on foliar nutrient content. Bell pepper were grown on bare ground under two nitrogen fertilization rates (11 and 19 kg N week‐1) and irrigated according to an irrigation scheduling model based on weather data and crop age. Eight irrigation rates ranged between 36 and 148% of the model rate. Leaf samples were taken at first bloom (62 days after transplanting, DAT) and after final harvest (84 DAT). Yield response and the foliar content of all essential elements determined [nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), boron (B), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), molybdenum (Mo), manganese (Mn), zinc (Zn)] responded linearly or quadratically to irrigation rates and most foliar nutrient contents remained within or above the sufficiency range. Foliar mineral content tended to be lower at 84 DAT as compared to 62 DAT. Only Ca became deficient under high irrigation rates on 84 DAT. Current fertilization recommendations for bell pepper and 100% of the model irrigation rate resulted in highest yield. These results suggest that the high N rate supplied as calcium nitrate should be used when multiple bell pepper harvests are expected.  相似文献

Maple forests in southern Quebec are suffering in the 1980s from a serious decline thought to be associated, in part, with acid deposition effects on their nutrient status. Research was undertaken to determine if conifers were subject to similar phenomena. The nutrient status of three Norway spruce plantations in southwestern Quebec were studied through foliar and soil analyses. In all locations low N and K and marginal Mg foliar concentrations were identified. Diagnostic fertilization resulted in improved K and P and in some cases Mg and N levels. The foliage of the treated trees has an improved dark green color as compared with the controls. From this research it is evident that nutrient deficiencies of N, K and Mg, in particular, are showing up in spruce stands in the areas where air pollution and acid rain are relatively severe. Proper diagnostic fertilization helped to correct the nutrient disturbances.  相似文献

Potassium (K) fertilization of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) has been a major research focus the last few years throughout the cotton belt. The objective of this field research, conducted from 1991 through 1994 on two high Mehlich I extractable K (EK) soils, was to evaluate broadcast and foliar applied K for conventional‐ (CT) and no‐tillage (NT) production. Main plot broadcast K rates were 0, 28, 56, and 112 kg K ha‐1. Foliar sub‐plot treatments were a non‐foliar check, KNO3, and Ca(NO3)2. The KNO3 was applied four times per year at 4.1 kg K ha‐1 application‐1. Calcium nitrate was applied at 1.6 kg N ha‐1 to equal the N applied in the KNO3. Extractable K increased annually with broadcast K for both tillage systems and soils and was higher for NT than CT. Lint yields from CT of both soils were increased two of the eight site‐years while yields from NT were increased five of eight site‐years by broadcast K. Three of the NT site‐year yields plus four‐year mean yields of both soils were increased by applying 56 kg K ha‐1, a rate higher than currently recommended for high EK soils. Yield responses to foliar fertilization were from added N rather than the K. Petiole K levels were sufficient so that extra K applied foliarly was not recommended for either soil or tillage system.  相似文献

The vigor of Norway spruce stands in the Bohemian Forest of Austria was correlated with site factors, informations on historic land use, and chemical properties of the soils and spruce needles. The study confirmed that trees on west exposed slopes and plateaus in higher elevation have lower crown densities. The soils in the area are generally low in base saturation. Historical land use, such as litter raking, grazing and burning of biomass for potash led to nutrient depletion. Increasing deposition of atmospheric N during the last decades alleviated N stress, but increased Ca and Mg stress. N∶Mg ratios in needles of declining stands are wide, indicating N induced nutritional imbalances. PH values in the mineral topsoil are very low on W-slopes and plateaus. Measurements of pollutant deposition at three different sites indicate a strong influence of aspect and elevation on input rates. In a southwest exposed stand and a stand on a hilltop, facing the prevailing winds, substantially more S and N was recovered in the throughfall than in northeast exposed stand. Deposition rates in the open did not differ significantly. High NO3 ? concentrations in the soil solution of the southwest exposed site indicate N saturation of the system. In order to test the hypothesis that mineral deficiency and nutritional disorders contribute to the poor vigor of these stands, fertilizer experiments were established. Fertilization with a combination of an organic fertilizer (BACTOSOL**)) and a magnesite fertilizer (BIOMAG*)) significantly improved crown density, growth, seed viability, and mineral nutrition as inferred from foliar analysis. NO3 ? leaching in the combined BACTOSOL+BIOMAG treatment increased during the first and second growing season after fertilization but leveled off to values typical for the control plots after three years. Mg content of the soil solution increased both in the BIOMAG and the combined BACTOSOL+BIOMAG treatment. These experiments show that the nutritional status and the resilience of declining forests in the Bohemian Forests of Austria can be easily improved by proper fertilizer treatment.  相似文献

“New type” forest damages have been observed in West Germany since the mid-1970's and discussed in North America since the early 1980's. Various types of damage are associated with typical foliar discoloration symptoms related to site characteristic nutritional disturbances. The macronutrients are generally Mg, Ca, and K. Based on foliar and soil analysis results diagnostic fertilization trials were established at a wide variety of sites and stands in West Germany as well as in North America. The appropriate application of fast soluble fertilizers proved that damage symptoms associated with nutritional disturbances can frequently be mitigated within a relatively short period. The observed visual revitalization corresponds well with foliar analysis data obtained continuously for the last 5 yr. Soil analyses also reflect the improved nutrient supply. Investigations of older fertilizer trials indicated that stands fertilized before the appearance of “new type” damage symptoms are considerably more vital when compared to the untreated control plots. Remarkable results were derived from histological research. Microscopic analysis of needles proved the regeneration potential on a histological level for moderately yellowed needles after fertilization. Furthermore, needles of nutrient deficient trees reveal typical differences of tissue damages when compared to SO2 fumigated or O3 impacted needles. Thus, histological investigations can be used as a diagnostic tool to differentiate between direct and indirect forest damages.  相似文献

As limited information is available on the nutrition of freesias an experiment was carried out to examine the influence of nutrients on foliage and corm growth, and flowering of container‐grown plants. The experiment ran for 10 months using seedlings grown in a peat:sand (3:1,v:v) medium with combinations of varying levels of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), and lime. Nitrogen fertilization had a significant effect on many aspects of flowering and growth while the response to P was similar except for a lack of influence on spike production. Fertilization of 600–800 g N m‐3 and at least 200 g P m‐3 are recommended for strong leaf and corm growth with good flowering. There were few significant responses to added K, except in early foliage growth, while liming increased foliage development. High flowering, leaf, and corm growth should be achieved with a media pH of 5.9 and foliar nutrients of 2.2–2.3% N, 0.25–0.30% P, 4.0–4.5% K, 0.65–0.80% calcium (Ca) and 0.20–0.25% magnesium (Mg).  相似文献

Texas bluegrass has potential as a cool-season perennial pasture grass for the south-central USA. Slow stand establishment in competitive environments is a limitation. Forage production of this grass increases with nitrogen (N), and rhizome growth increases with phosphorus (P). Stand responses by Texas bluegrass from three seed sources to seeding rate and a complete mixed fertilizer were assessed from 1997 through 2005 on a Louisiana Coastal Plain site. A linear response (R2 = 0.39, P ≤ 0.0001) to seeding rate in March 1998 persisted through 2005, even though stands at all seeding rates improved over time. Stands did not differ (P > 0.05) among seed sources. At only the higher seeding rates, rhizome mass increased with fertilization. Soil pH decreased with fertilization, and pH was positively correlated with the final stand rating in 2005. Direct stand responses to fertilization were not detected. Lack of competitive advantage, despite growth responses, and soil acidification with fertilization indicate that increased seeding rates and delayed fertilization may enhance initial establishment of Texas bluegrass in humid environments.  相似文献

Fagus sylvatica L. is the most representative tree species in forests of Navarre (Northern Spain), in the boundary between the Euro-Siberian and Mediterranean regions. In this paper we assess the nutritional status of 30 beech forest stands selected in this area which belong to three vegetation series: Saxifrago hirsutaeFageto sylvaticae S., Scillo lilio-hyacinthiFageto sylvaticae S. and Carici sylvaticaeFageto sylvaticae S. We also determine the foliar content of sodium (Na), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), nitrogen (N) phosphorus (P) and sulphur (S) for these stands. Additionally, the crown condition was also assessed. Average stand values for Ca, Na, Mg and K foliar content were found to be above the reference values in many of the stands. Consequently, macronutrient ratios for these elements (N/Ca, K/Ca, Ca/Mg and K/Mg) were either above or below the range considered to be suitable for the harmonious growth of beech trees, but no evidence was found that this had a deleterious effect on the health status of the beech trees. Results showed that crown condition in these stands was good, with an average 12.2% of trees considered as damaged compared to an EU 22.8% for the same period. No symptoms of N-saturation were found; on the contrary, N is believed to still be a limiting factor for tree growth in the area.  相似文献

Oats (Avena sativa L.) are often harvested for silage in the Great Lakes states. The objective of this research was to obtain additional information on the response of oats to N and K fertilization. ‘Froker’ spring oats were grown from seed under 27 C day/21 C night temperatures in a growth chamber. The soil was a 4:1 mixture of Dodge silt loam soil (Typic Argiudoll) and sand that contained low levels of N and K. The potted plants were fertilized with 0, 50, 100, and 200 kg/ha of N as NH4NO3 in all combinations with 0, 200, and 400 kg/ha of K as KC1. Plants were harvested at early inflorescence emergence (43 days after seeding). Fertilization with N significantly increased the dry matter yields (g/pot) of the herbage and total plant, the number of axillary tillers/pot, and herbage N percentage. Root yields were increased only with the first increment of N. Nitrogen fertilization had no significant effect on height of the primary shoots and herbage K percentage. The first increment of K (200 kg K/ha) significantly increased herbage and total plant dry matter yields, while the second increment (400 kg K/ha) gave no further yield increases. However, number of axillary tillers/pot and herbage K percentage were increased significantly with each higher K rate. Potassium fertilization had no significant effect on root yield, primary shoot height, and herbage N percentage. It was concluded that the vegetative growth of oats is very responsive to N fertilization to the highest rate applied (200 kg N/ha), but responds only to the first increment of K (200 kg K/ha).  相似文献

Intercropping is of increasing interest in temperate-arable farming systems. The influence of nitrogen (N) fertilization and sowing ratio on concentrations and uptake of calcium (Ca), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg) and phosphorus (P) by oat and pea was assessed in three substitutive intercrops on a fertile soil in eastern Austria. N decreased Ca in oat grain and increased P in pea grain as well as Ca and Mg in oat residue and Mg and P in pea residue. Intercropping did not affect nutrient concentrations of oat grain, whereas a lower pea share in intercrops increased P in pea grain. In residue, Ca, K and Mg concentrations were higher in oat and Ca and K partly lower in pea with a lower share of each crop. The oat-dominated intercrops could partly achieve a slightly higher total grain nutrient yield than pure stands at no or low N; however, these benefits diminished with a higher pea share and N input. In comparison to pure stands, higher residue nutrient yields were obtained by intercropping in all sowing ratios and fertilization levels. Consequently, oat–pea intercropping can be a strategy for increasing the macronutrient yield of grain and especially of residue for ruminant feeding.  相似文献

Abstract

An experiment was conducted to help understand the contributions of different soil layers to soil fertility, plant growth, and response to fertilization. Douglas‐fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) seedlings were used in a pot bioassay to delimit the effects of volcanic ash soils, urea fertilization at 100 and 200 ppm, and the technique of using undisturbed soil as a growth medium. Volcanic ash horizons contained more available phosphorus and mineralized more nitrogen than underlying horizons. Best seedling growth occurred in ash horizons fertilized with 200 ppm of urea‐N. Fertilization decreased soil pH, mycorrhizae formation and foliar‐P levels but increased foliar‐N. The technique of using undisturbed soil had little effect on seedling growth in the weak structured ash horizons but did decrease root weights in the moderate structured sub‐ash layers.  相似文献

The effects of varying fertilizer application rates [100–15–100 or 300–46–300 mg L‐1 of nitrogen (N)‐phosphorus (P)‐potassium (K)] and pinching dates on nutrient uptake patterns of poinsettias were studied. During the first seven weeks after potting, varying the N‐P‐K fertilization rate from 100–15–100 to 300–46–300 mg L‐1 N‐P‐K had no effect on plant height, dry weight, nutrient concentration, or nutrient content of poinsettias. The uptake ratios for NO3‐N, K, calcium (Ca), and magnesium (Mg) all were <40% of the amount that was available at the 100 mg L"1 N and K fertilization rate, indicating that poinsettias require lower levels of NO3‐N, K, Ca, and Mg than what was available from the 100–15–100 mg L"1 N‐P‐K fertilization rate. The higher uptake ratios of >60% and >70%, respectively, for NH4‐N and P at the 100 mg L"1 N and K fertilization rate indicated the plants utilized a higher percentage of the available NH4‐N and P, indicating that an application rate >18 mg L‐1 NH4‐N and >15 mg L‐1 P would be required by poinsettias from the week before the plants were pinched through three weeks after pinching. The 300–46–300 mg L‐1 N‐P‐K fertilization rate provided excessive nutrients that were not utilized by the plants during the early stages of plant growth.  相似文献

Forest soil carbon (C) pools may act as sinks for, or sources of, atmospheric carbon dioxide, while nitrogen (N) fertilization may affect the net exchange of C in forest ecosystems. Since all major C and N processes in soil are driven by soil microorganisms, we evaluated the effects of N fertilization on biomass and bacterial and fungal activity in soils from three Norway spruce forests with different climatic and N availability conditions. N deposition and net N mineralization were higher at the sites in southern Sweden than at the site in northern Sweden. We also studied the extent to which N fertilization altered the nutrient(s) limiting bacterial growth in soil. We found that on average microbial biomass was reduced by ~40% and microbial activity by ~30% in fertilized plots. Bacterial growth rates were more negatively affected by fertilization than fungal growth rates, while fungal biomass (estimated using the phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) 18:2ω6,9) decreased more than bacterial biomass as a consequence of fertilization. The microbial community structure (indicated by the PLFA pattern) was changed by fertilization, but not in the same way at the three sites. Soil bacteria were limited by a lack of carbon in all forests, with the carbon limitation becoming more evident in fertilized plots, especially in the forests that had previously been the most N-limited ones. This study thus showed that the effects of N fertilization differed depending on the conditions at the site prior to fertilization.  相似文献

Field experiments were conducted from 2000 to 2007 on three-year or older alfalfa stands grown for seed production at various sites in northeastern Saskatchewan to determine the influence of balanced application of phosphorus (P), sulfur (S), or potassium (K) fertilizers on seed yield and longevity of alfalfa stands. Survey trials were also conducted to determine the possible reasons for low seed yields on some alfalfa seed fields by comparing “bad” (i.e., low alfalfa seed-yielding) and “good” (i.e., high alfalfa seed-yielding) areas within alfalfa seed stands. The results of alfalfa seed field survey trials suggest that poor seed yields in “bad” areas compared to “good” areas in most alfalfa stands were due to nutrient deficiencies and/or a soil fertility imbalance, as evidenced by soil tests for available nutrients. The findings of field research experiments indicated that application of P, K, or S fertilizer nutrients was essential to obtain optimum seed yield in most cases under normal soil moisture conditions. This also suggests the importance of balanced fertilization in increasing longevity of alfalfa seed stands over a number of years. In summary, the findings suggest that when a soil is testing low (or deficient) in a nutrient and alfalfa growth is reduced, then alfalfa seed producers should consider application of fertilizers to supply adequate amounts of nutrients lacking in the soil. However, it is still difficult to predict accurately if a profitable alfalfa seed yield response to fertilization would occur, particularly when the soils are testing marginal in some nutrient levels and alfalfa seed yields are often reduced by dry weather conditions and/or frost damage.  相似文献

Soil or foliar application of nitrogen (N) can increase plant growth and salinity tolerance in cotton, but a combination of both methods is seldom studied under salinity stress. A pot experiment was conducted to study the effects of soil application (S), foliar application (F), and a combination of both (S+F) with labeled nitrogen (15N) on cotton growth, N uptake and translocation under salinity stress (ECe = 12.5 dS m?1). Plant biomass, leaf area, leaf chlorophyll (Chl) content, leaf net photosynthetic (Pn) rate, levels of 15N and [Na+] and K+/ Na+ ratio in plant tissues were determined at 3, 7, 14 and 28 days after N application (DAN). Results showed that soil or foliar nitrogen fertilization improved plant biomass, leaf area per plant and leaf photosynthesis, and a combination of soil- plus foliar-applied N was superior to either S or F alone under salinity stress. Although foliar application favored a rapid accumulation of leaf N and soil application a rapid accumulation of root N, S+F enhanced N accumulation in both leaf and root under salinity stress. The combined N application also maintained significantly greater [K+] and K+/Na+ than either soil or foliar application alone. Therefore, the improved plant growth and salinity tolerance under S+F relative to soil or foliar N application alone was attributed to the increased total uptake of N, balanced N concentrations in different tissues through enhanced uptake and accumulation in both leaves and roots, and higher ratio of K+/Na+.  相似文献

施肥对板栗林土壤活性碳库和温室气体排放的影响   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
在浙江省临安市典型板栗林试验地,利用静态箱-气相色谱法测定了不同施肥条件下板栗林土壤CO2和N2O排放速率,同时测定了土壤水溶性有机碳(WSOC)和微生物量碳(MBC)含量。初步探讨了施肥对板栗林土壤活性碳库与温室气体排放速率的影响,以及土壤温室气体排放速率与活性碳库之间的关系。本试验设置不施肥(CK)、 无机肥(IF)、 有机肥 (OF)和有机无机混合肥(OIF,1/2无机肥和1/2有机肥)4个施肥处理。结果表明, 施肥1个月后,与不施肥(CK)处理相比,无机肥(IF)、 有机肥(OF)和有机无机混合肥(OIF)处理下土壤CO2排放速率分别增加了87%、 38%和61%, N2O排放速率分别增加了101%、 67%和95%; 而施肥6个月后,与CK处理相比,IF、 OF和OIF处理下土壤CO2 排放速率分别增加了51%、 43%和64%,N2O排放速率分别增加了21%、 29%和47%。同时,施肥显著增加板栗林土壤WSOC和MBC含量(P<0.05)。此外,土壤CO2和N2O排放速率与WSOC含量均呈显著正相关(P0.05),而与MBC含量没有显著的相关性。因此,施肥引起板栗林地土壤WSOC含量增加可能是导致板栗林地土壤温室气体排放增加的重要原因之一。  相似文献

This study tested the ability of exponential fertilization to minimize the tradeoff of increased seedling size and nutrient concentration with good root colonization by mycorrhizae. Two native Hawaiian tree species were tested. Four rates of nitrogen (N) (0–3 g per seedling) were delivered by the method of exponential fertilization to seedlings with and without inoculation with a native strain of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus. For both species, the highest growth and nutrient concentrations occurred with mycorrhizal colonization at 1–2 g N per seedling. Growth of inoculated seedlings was significantly lower at 3.0 g N per seedling, likely due to a large reduction in mycorrhizal colonization. Our results demonstrate that mycorrhizal colonization is not only compatible with exponential fertilization, combined they produce larger seedlings with higher nutrient content. This should improve outplanting success in degraded or challenging sites.  相似文献
