Abstract

Corn yields and leaf samples were obtained from experimental plots receiving varying rates of N, P, and K. Yields were placed in two groups. One group consisted of yields < 134 bu/A, and a second group consisted of yields ≥ 134 bu/A. Within each group yields were regressed on leaf levels of N, P, K, Ca, Mg, B, Cu, Fe, Mn and Zn as independent variables in a second order polynomial. Using stepwise regression procedures the fit of the polynomial was determined for each set of observations, and statistical significance of various effects was determined.

The regression accounted for 71.5 percent of observed variability in yields in the < 134 bu/A category, and 53.2 percent of observed variability in yields in the ≥ 134 bu/A category. With statistical criteria used, twelve interactions were observed in both groupings, but the PFe interaction was the only one common to both analyses. Seven interactions with Mn were observed in the lower yield category, but only one in the upper category. One linear effect and three quadratic effects were observed in the lower yield category, and three linear effects and four quadratic effects were observed in the upper yield category.  相似文献

Abstract

Corn yields and leaf samples vere obtained from experimental plots receiving various rates and combinations of N, P and K. Yields were regressed on leaf N, P, K, Ca and Mg as independent variables expressed in milliequivalents per 100 grams and percentages in three regression models. The fit of two models was shown to be equivalent regardless of method of expressing the independent variables. For the other model the choice of milliequivalents per 100 grams or percentages determines a unique function.  相似文献

Abstract

The fourth, fully‐expanded leaves at sweet potato vine tips were sampled at harvest from two separate but similar experiments on njala upland soils after 7 years bush fallow to study the effects of timing and rates of K fertilizers on leaf nutrients and their relationships to sweet potato tuber yields. Potash showed significant effects on leaf P, leaf Zn, leaf Ca, leaf Mn, leaf K/P and leaf Ca/Mg. K x timing interaction affected leaf K/Mg and leaf K/P but timing of Z application did affect significantly neither leaf nutrients nor leaf nutrient ratios. Significant quadratic effect of K on tuber yields as well as significant cubic K x timing interaction effect on tuber yields were observed. There were significant negative correlations between tuber yields and leaf N and between tuber yields and leaf P, indicating that increases in either leaf N or leaf P depressed yields. On the basis of coefficient of determination, increases in leaf N contributed significantly more to yield variation than increases in leaf P. Analysis of covariance and multiple regression studies showed lack of significance of 10 nutrients on tuber yields. Sweet potato tissue which reflects differential nutrient levels with significant effect on tuber yields must be sought. Apart from the added fertilizer, the total effect of ether factors which affect nutrient status and crop performance must be considered.  相似文献

Abstract

Using predictably excessive rates of N, P and K for potatoes on a well decomposed and intensively fertilized organic soil, it was observed that while N depressed yields somewhat, there were neither deleterious nor beneficial effects from the application of P or K. The highest rates of P and K used were 1792 and 3584 kg/ha respectively. Increasing rates of N decreased B concentrations in the potato leaf tissue while increasing rate of K resulted in increasing concentrations of B. Zinc tended to be higher in leaf tissue as excessive phosphorus application rates increased.  相似文献

Abstract

Sugarcane production in Barbados has declined since the 1950s. Plant nutrition and fertilization deficiencies are generally believed to negatively influence yields in Barbados. The objective of this study was to identify nutritional and environmental factors related to sugarcane yields. Leaf analyses, respective crop yields, and other data were collected from the Barbados Sugar Industry Ltd. during the period 1985–1990. The database was constructed from 2,853 site observations, consisting of crop cane yield (Mt/ha), soil grouping, ecological grouping, growing elevation, and leaf tissue analysis [nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K)]. Simple mean separation and tree‐based regression were used to identify nutritional and environmental factors associated with sugarcane yields. Twenty‐three environments were delineated by tree‐based regression, in which plant nutrient deficiencies (i.e., yield limiting) were identified. One environment described N‐deficient conditions, four environments described P‐deficient conditions, and five environments described K‐deficient conditions. Different critical leaf nutrient concentrations were related to yields. A single nutrient norm under different environments may be misleading. If current fertilizer recommendations are adhered to by growers in Barbados, attention to additional fertilization should be given only under these environments.  相似文献

Abstract

This research was undertaken on a paleudult soil in southern Brazil, 30° south latitude, to quantify lime and P effect upon soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill). A lime x P factorial experience with lime treatments of 0, 0.5, 1, and 2 times SMP interpretation to pH 6.5, and 0, 44, 88, 132, and 176 kg P/ha with 3 replications were installed. The experiment was conducted for 2 years (1973–74, 1974–75), with leaf‐N, P, and K; yield; seed‐N, P, and K; Bray P2 (0.03N NH4F + 0.1N HC1) avail‐able‐P and soil pH measurements completed each year. Data was evaluated with linear, quadratic, logarithmic, polynomial, segmented line, and multiple regression using the coefficient of determination as goodness of fit.

The best model fit between P treatment and Bray P2 available‐P was a quadratic equation; the model between relative yield and Bray P2‐P with 54% of the relative yield attributed to Bray P2 available‐P, a sigmented line. This model indicated point of maximum yield (91% relative yield) was obtained at 7.4 ppm‐P, with no increase in relative yield with increasing levels of soil available‐P. To calculate the P fertilizer necessary to increase available soil‐P to the level of maximum yield of equation Yp = [1639(7.4 ‐ xs)]1/2, where Yp = kg P/ha fertilizer needed; and xs = initial Bray P2 soil available‐P in ppm's. The lime effect upon soil pH was best described as a linear relationship. Yield increase with lime at this site was not significant at the 5% level.

The leaf‐N, P, and K increased significantly with soil available‐P levels. A second degree polynomial with logarithmic function best defined these relationships. The calculated DRIS indices and sum proved useful to evaluate the plant‐N, P, and K balance of each treatment.

Only seed‐P level was directly related to soil available‐P. Both seed‐N and seed‐K were highly correlated with indirect effects of soil available‐P levels.

Results from this study suggest the segmented line model would best interpret soybean yield response to Bray P2 available‐P for this soil. To obtain maximum yield using this model rather than the second degree polynomial would require less fertilizer P. Foliar analyses interpretation confirmed adequate plant‐P level would be supplied for maximum yield at this level of fertilization.  相似文献

Abstract

Previously published DRIS norms for sweet cherry and hazelnut were used to calculate DRIS indices for N, K, P, Ca, Mg, Mn, Fe, Cu, B, and Zn on over a thousand leaf sample analyses for each crop. A nutritional imbalance index (NII) was obtained by adding the values of DRIS indices irrespective of sign. The sample with the lowest NII for each crop was assumed to have “ideal”; levels of elements and these “ideal”; levels were used to create an artificial data base to determine which critical values would be most consistent with DRIS evaluations. By maintaining all but one element concentration at “ideal”; levels and artificially varying another, the concentration of a given element that was associated with the onset of severe imbalances could be identified. In addition to providing ratio‐based diagnoses, DRIS norms provide a means of independently evaluating current sufficiency ranges for elements that DRIS diagnoses as relatively deficient or excessive.  相似文献

Abstract

The leaf concentrations of N, P, and K were primarily influenced by the respective fertilizer nutrient, except P, vhich also was influenced by the fertilizer N. Increasing rates of the nutrients well above those recommended for normal corn production increased the leaf nutrient concentrations, but not yields after the first increment of fertilizer. The effect of dry veather reduced yields 0.7 quintals per hectare per day and also vas negatively correlated with the leaf N and leaf P concentrations (0.01 probability level).  相似文献

Abstract

Soybeans, Glycine max (L.) Merr., field peas, Plsum sativum I., and fababeans, Vicia faba L., were each grown at either three or four locations. Fertilizer treatments consisted of three rates of N, three of P and three of K applied in all possible combinations.

In general fertilizers had minimal effects on yields and on the percentages of N, P, K, Ca and Mg in leaf tissue. The most consistent effect was a decrease in leaf Mg with application of increasing; rates of K.

Average yields at different locations ranged from 1735–2997 kg/ha for soybeans, 2940–3246 kg/ha for field peas and 1569—4435 kg/ha for fababeans. The results suggest, however, that factors other than soil chemical properties probably had an appreciable effect on yields.  相似文献

Abstract

Early spring application of N to Iowa sandy, leachable soils results in reduced sweet corn yields and kernel protein content. Normally, split N applications are used to coincide with crop N demand. Our objectives were to determine if nitrapyrin, a nitrification inhibitor, applied with urea would provide high yields and kernel protein levels when applied at planting.

Nitrogen rate increased yield, ear leaf N concentration, and kernel protein content in 1976 and 1978, with the optimum rate dependent on the year and soil N residual. Urea, with or without nitrapyrin, significantly enhanced yield 13%, early leaf N concentration 17%, and kernel protein content 9% as compared with Ca(NO3)2 for both years. High leaching loss of NO3‐N occurred with the Ca(NO3)2 source as compared with urea alone. Kernel protein concentration correlated well with ear leaf N concentration (r = .74) and yield (r = .61). Ear leaf K content was not affected by N rate or source, but Ca(NO3)2 enhanced uptake of Ca and Mg as compared with the urea sources. Urea, with nitrapyrin, decreased leaf Mg content in 1978, but not in 1976, as compared with urea alone.  相似文献

Abstract

Corn (Zea mays L.) was grown in the greenhouse in a Laughlin (Ultic Haploxeroll) loam soil, with various amounts of N and S added in order to determine possible interactions of these nutrients with the relationship between plant composition and grain yields. Previous field experience and preliminary experiments had shown that this soil gave yield responses to N and S additions.

Regression equations were used to describe the relationship between composition of various plant parts and grain yields. The best correlation (R2 = 0.943) was obtained using the total N concentration in leaf samples taken at the silking stage, but excluding data from plants which, based on their amide N concentrations (greater than 500 ppm), were considered S deficient. Calculations using the first derivative of the cubic polynomial indicated that a concentration of 2.5% N in the lower leaves was necessary in order to obtain maximum grain yields. The concentrations of total N in the upper leaves and the stalks at the silking stage also correlated well with the grain yields. The relationship of NO3‐N in the stalks at silking to grain yields could be better described mathematically with an exponential function, but the correlation coefficient was low (R2 = 0.58). The responses of two genotypes, one containing the opaque ‐ 2 gene, the other its normal counterpart, were similar.

The total N concentration in the leaves collected at the tassel stage did not correlate quite as well with grain yield as those collected later, but using the exponential model NO3‐N concentrations in the stalks at the earlier stage showed a closer relationship to grain yield than for samples collected at silking. Excluding data for the plants showing S deficiency, a correlation coefficient of 0.90 was obtained. At both tasseling and silking stages, the S deficient plants were characterized by high N:S ratios, with values of 18 to 50 for the stalks, compared to values of less than 10 for the S adequate plants. The marked effect of inadequate S on grain formation was not evident in the amounts of leaves and stalks produced.

Field studies will be necessary to evaluate further the merit of the diagnostic procedure indicated by these experiments.  相似文献

Abstract

In a relationship between the grain yields and concentrations of a nutrient element at a well defined stage of development under varying growing conditions, i.e. 2.0 g Dry Matter weight (DMw) per hill, the boundary line concept dictates that the grain yield corresponding to the points along the boundary of data points is predominantly determined by the varying concentrations of the respective nutrient element. These concentrations, defined as “Pure‐effect Concentrations,”; form the bases to develop the pure‐effect yield curves. Pure‐effect yield curves were developed for N, P, K, Ca, Mg and Na. The absolutely optimal concentrations or absolute reference values, i.e. the concentrations of various nutrient elements at 2.0 g DMw level corresponding to maximum grain yield, were found to be 3.3% N, 0.36% P, 3.9% K, 1.3% Ca, 0.25% Mg and 0.03% Na.

The relationships were developed between the concentrations of other nutrient elements corresponding to pure‐effect concentrations of a nutrient element in question in all combinations by treating each nutrient element as pure‐effect nutrient at a time. These relationships enable one to determine the varying optimal concentrations of other nutrient elements corresponding to the concentrations of the pure‐effect nutrient. These concentrations are defined as “Relatively Optimal Concentrations”; or “Relative Reference Values.”;

The absolute and relative reference values are the bases for developing the diagnosis and yield prognosis models which can be used to evaluate the nutritional status of lowland rice plants and to predict the grain yield based on the elemental composition of plants at 2.0 g DMw per hill. The procedure for the application of diagnosis and yield prognosis models is demonstrated. A very good agreement was found between the grain yield predicted by using these models and the actual yields, thus indicating a high degree of accuracy in predicting the grain yield.  相似文献

Abstract

The objective of this research was to mesasure the effect of intercropping corn (Zea mays L.) with velvet bean (Mucuna pruriens) oil corn yields, soil fertility, and weed control in northern Belize. Two soils were used which are widespread in the area. These soils are high in clay (simectitc) and are well supplied with bases. One soil, the Louisville, has a black surface horizon overlying light gray to white calcareous weathered coral. The other soil was Xaibe which consists of a reddish‐brown clay over hard limestone “cap rock”; at 30–40 cm. Both soils had a relatively high organic carbon (C) and total nitrogen (N) content. We classified the Louisville as Calciustert and the Xaibe as a Ustropept. The treatments used (carried out annually in 1990, 1991, and 1992) were residue burn (B), bum plus fertilizer (BF), a velvet bean intercrop (G), and a velvet bean intercrop plus fertilizer (GF). Velvet bean intercropping did not have a positive effect on corn yields on these soils. For adequate yields to be maintained, it appears that fertilization with N, phosphorus (P), potassium (K) and certain micronutrients are required. We did obtain some indication that velvet bean intercropping will reduce weed population, including a serious infestation of cogongrass (Jmperata cylindrica). Velvet bean did not maintain the soil N content Corn yields decreased on the Louisville soil at San Victor from a range of 2,804 kg/ha to 3,181 kg/ha in 1990 to 1,783 kg/ha to 2,065 kg/ha in 1992. There were no significant treatment effects in any year. With the Xaibe soil, no yields were obtained in 1990 because of weed competition. In 1991, yields ranged from 555 kg/ha to 1,146 kg/ha (no significant treatment effects). In 1992, the fertilized plots, BF and GF, had corn yields of 1,391 kg/ha and 1,592 kg/ha, respectively. The unfertilized plots, B and G, had corn yields of 751 kg/ha and 699 kg/ha, respectively. We did obtain sufficient information valuable for persons making fertilizer recommendations on similar types of soil. The Mehlich 3 and the ammonium bicarbonate‐DTPA extractant (the latter extractant similar to that used in Belize) did not give good correlations between P and K leaf levels and corn yields. Where soil test P and K were often adequate, corn ear leaf levels were deficient (and presumably yields were reduced because of this metabolic deficiency). We concluded from both soil tests and leaf analyses that the micronutrients copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), and molybdenum (Mo) are seldom, if ever, limiting plant growth and grain yield, although there appears to be seasonal differences. With both soils, soil tests were not good indicators of zinc (Zn) concentrations in the leaf. In 1992, soil tests indicated adequacy of this element, although leaf Zn was deficient in all plots on the Louisville soil in 1990, most plots in 1992, and several plots on the Xaibe soil in both years.  相似文献

Abstract

Proponents of the “starter nitrogen”; concept believe that a small amount of nitrogen fertilizer stimulates early vegetative growth of soybeans, thereby facilitating cultivation and weed control. To evaluate this concept, soybean leaf area, plant height, fresh weight, and yield were measured over three growing seasons. Growth parameters were measured at weekly intervals during the 7 weeks following planting of ‘Bragg’ soybeans (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) which had received 0, 16.8, and 50.4 kg N ha‐1 banded pre‐plant into the soil.

The analysis, a multiple linear regression maximum R2 (multiple correlation coefficient) improvement procedure, showed that starter nitrogen did not significantly (.05) influence leaf area, plant height, fresh weight, or yield of Bragg soybeans.  相似文献

Abstract

Garden vegetables were grown with “organic”; or “commercial”; fertilizer amendments to the soil. Plot preparation and other general cultural practices were identical. Tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, lettuce, onions and peas were planted, and leaf tissue and edible produce were harvested. N, P, K, Ca and Mg and content of ascorbic acid were determined in some of the produce. Certain vegetables were evaluated by a trained taste panel for palata‐bility differences. Generally, the conventional plots produced more yield of vegetables, although seasonal variation was greater than variation due to soil amendments. Mineral content was essentially the same from both regimes. The taste panel preferences were not consistent. From these data, it was concluded that the two methods of vegetable production were equal for quality and nearly equal for yield over the two years.  相似文献

Abstract

Magnesium and Ca concentrations in smooth bromegrass (Bromus inermis L) were not affected by late‐winter applications of N. Magnesium concentrations were constant until rapid growth in mid‐May then they declined until early June harvest. Highest seasonal concentrations were found in the fall regrowth. Calcium concentrations declined as plants matured in spring. Highest seasonal Ca concentrations were found in the fall regrowth. Nitrogen, P, and K concentrations and K/(Ca+Mg) ratios were increased by N applications during early spring but did not differ significantly by early June harvest. Nitrogen and P concentrations decreased as plants matured in spring and fall. K concentrations and K/(Ca+Mg) ratios changed inconsistently from sampling date to sampling date. Forage yields were approximately doubled by 67 kg N/ha and tripled by 202 kg N/ha. Significant yield differences were related to different N carriers.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Nutrient use efficiency and overall plant fertilization strategies are key issues in food production in increasingly adverse environmental conditions. The plant Actinidia arguta (Siebold et Zucc.) Planch. ex Miq. is a species that has increased cultivation in recent years. The aim of this study was to assess seasonal leaf macronutrient changes and the relationship between soil nitrogen (N) fertility and N, as well as the concentration of other leaf essential macronutrients. The experiment was conducted during the growing seasons of 2015–2016 and tested two cultivars: “Weiki” and “Geneva”. Soil N level had a significant impact on the concentration of all leaf macronutrients, except sulfur, in both cultivars. Leaf macronutrient concentration was significantly lower in 2015, which was characterized by a higher average temperature and lower precipitation than the long term averages. A clear downward trend for leaf N and potassium concentrations was observed during the vegetation period. In contrast, leaf calcium and magnesium concentrations increased gradually throughout the season, while phosphorus and sulfur concentration changes were more cultivar dependent. In the soil and climatic conditions in which study was conducted (Central Europe), a time from mid-July to mid-August seems to be the suitable for leaf sampling for diagnostic purposes. Fruit macronutrient composition was predominantly cultivar and year dependent.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Compost significantly enhanced strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) plant growth and fruit quality when used as a soil supplement. Adding half strength of Peter nutrient solution (50% fertilizer) to a mixture of 50% soil plus 50% compost was very effective in significantly increasing plant dry weight to approximately double that of controls (without compost), fruit yield by more than 70%, and fruit size by 15% compared to controls in the two strawberry cultivars (“Allstar” and “Honeoye”). Compost and fertilizer also significantly enhanced leaf chlorophyll content. Nitrate reductase activity significantly increased in leaves and roots with the greatest increases when using 50% soil plus 50% compost. Strawberry plants grown with compost had significantly higher levels of nitrogen (N) and potassium (K), but lower levels of manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), molybdenum (Mo), and nickel (Ni) in fruit of both “Allstar” and “Honeoye”. Adding compost to the soil mix did not change zinc (Zn) and cadmium (Cd) levels. Use of compost also significantly increased levels of organic acids (malic and citric acid), sugars (fructose, glucose, and total sugars), soluble solids content, and titratable acidity content in both cultivars. The results indicate that the use of compost can reduce the amount of fertilizer required for optimum strawberry plant growth.  相似文献

Abstract

Corn (Zea mays L.) is next to rice as an important food crop grown in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. However, yields obtained by farmers are rather low, around 0.6 to 1.0 ton/ha. Efforts to increase yield have been tried through the application of NPK fertilizers. A study was conducted to determine the effects of N, P and K application on corn yield and what soil constrains, in terms of nutrient elements in the corn plants, exist in the latsols found at Desa Tokka, Sinjai, and South Sulawesi. It was found that application of K significantly increased the growth and corn grain yields on the latosols at Sinjai. Without K, grain yield and the K content in the ear leaf were low. The correlation between grain yield and rate of K shows that an application of 72 kg K2O/ha together with 90 kg N and 80 kg P2O5 per ha produce the best yield of 3.6 tons/ha. The K content in the ear leaf of 1.8% was related to this maximum yield.  相似文献

Diagnosing nutrient insufficiencies or toxicities in sorghum through foliar analysis is still unusual and mainly used for grain sorghum. The influences of the combinations of four nitrogen (N) rates with three sodium chloride (NaCl) rates on the leaf N, phosphorus (P), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), potassium (K), and sodium (Na) concentrations of sweet sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench ssp. saccharatum], cropped for ethanol production, and on biomass and sugar yields were evaluated in three consecutive years of an experiment established on a Eutric Fluvisol equipped with a trickle irrigation system (“triple emitter source”). The relationships among leaf nutrient concentrations, dry matter, and sugar yields were also examined. Nitrogen, much more than salinity, affected leaf nutrient concentration, stem dry weight, and sugar yield. Leaf N concentration was the best indicator for predicting sugar production of sweet sorghum.  相似文献
