ABSTRACT

Under field conditions, wheat cultivar PBW 343 produced 1.5 times higher grain yield than PDW 233, when grown on low manganese (Mn) soil. To explain the differences in Mn efficiency a pot experiment was conducted using Mn deficient Typic ustochrept loamy sand soil treated with 0, 50, and 100?mg?Mn?kg?1 soil. In no-Mn treatment, both the wheat cultivars showed Mn deficiency symptoms and cultivar PBW 343 produced 30% of the maximum dry matter yield (DMY) attained at high Mn supply, while PDW 233 produced only 18% of its maximum DMY after 40 days of growth. With application of 50?mg?Mn?kg?1 soil, the DMY significantly increased to 87% and 50% of the maximum for PBW 343 and PDW 233, respectively. These results indicate that aestivum cultivar PBW 343 was more Mn efficient than durum cultivar PDW 233. Manganese efficient cultivar PBW 343 had a lower internal Mn requirement than PDW 233 because at the same shoot Mn concentration PBW 343 produced more DMY. The root growth of both wheat cultivars was similar at sufficient Mn supply, the root length (RL)?:?DMY ratio being equal. At decreasing Mn supply root growth was depressed more strongly than shoot growth, the inhibition being more severe in Mn inefficient cultivar PDW 233, indicating the importance of root system size for Mn efficiency between these two wheat cultivars. A nutrient uptake model closely described Mn influx in both the cultivars, indicating that calculated concentration profiles were realistic and that chemical mobilization of Mn in the rhizosphere was not responsible for higher Mn efficiency of PBW 343. Calculated concentration profiles showed that in soil not fertilized with Mn, initial soil solution Mn concentration of 0.23?µM decreased to only 0.21?µM at the root surface after 27 days of uptake. This 7.4% decrease in Mn concentration at the root surface indicated that roots could not decrease Mn concentration to a lower value which would have caused higher transport of Mn to root surface and hence resulted in higher Mn influx.  相似文献

Abstract

Triticale (X Triticosecale Wittmack), a hybrid of wheat and rye, shows a high degree of aluminum (Al) tolerance, but variation in Al resistance between cultivars does exist. The mechanisms responsible for differential Al resistance in 10 triticale cultivars were investigated in this study. Triticale roots secreted both malate and citrate in response to Al stress. The amount of organic acid anions secreted was correlated positively to the relative root elongation (an index for Al resistance) and negatively to the Al content in root apices under Al stress, suggesting that the secretion of malate and citrate seems to be involved in the exclusion of Al from root tip. The Al‐induced secretion of malate and citrate was characterized using an Al‐resistant cultivar (ZC 237) and an Al‐sensitive cultivar (OH 1621). Root elongation was significantly inhibited in both ZC 237 and OH 1621 after 24 h of exposure to 30, 50, or 100 µM Al but was more strongly in OH 1621 than in ZC 237 at all Al concentrations tested. A marked lag phase (3 h) between the addition of Al and the secretion of organic acid anions was observed in both triticale cultivars, and the secretion increased with increasing external Al concentration. The two anion‐channel inhibitors, phenylglyoxal and niflumic acid, significantly inhibited the secretion of malate and citrate in ZC 237, with the degree of the inhibition of niflumic acid greater than that of phenylglyoxal. The Al‐induced secretion of malate and citrate decreased to a very low level at low temperature (4°C) in both cultivars. These results indicate that Al‐induced malate and citrate secretion from roots play important roles in excluding Al and thereby detoxifying Al in triticale. The Al‐induced organic acid anions were inhibited by anion‐channel inhibitors and were dependent on temperature.  相似文献

Boron (B) toxicity is a considerable mineral nutritional problem for crop production in arid and semi-arid regions worldwide. The effect of mannitol (M) in wheat seedlings that are tolerant and sensitive to excessive B was studied to reduce B toxicity symptoms. Plants were grown in a peat with different concentrations of boric acid (0, 30, 45, 60 mg kg?1) and treated additionally with M (0, 1, 5, 10 g kg?1). Seedlings grown for 8 weeks were harvested for root length, shoot length, and dry-weight measurements and analyzed for B content of leaves. Compared with control groups (no boric acid treatment), B toxicity caused reductions in root length, shoot length, and dry weight of both wheat cultivars. Significant increases on growth parameters were observed under B treatments, the greatest with 1 g kg?1 M application in a tolerant bread cultivar. On the other hand, 10 g kg?1 M application under 60 mg kg?1 B treatment gave also good results on root length in a sensitive durum cultivar. Significant decreases in leaf B content were observed under B treatments with all M applications in both wheat cultivars, the greatest with 5 g kg?1 M application. The results suggest that M applications may have a possible role in overcoming in B toxicity in wheat grown in the field.  相似文献

Eight primary octoploid triticale genotypes (xTriticosecale Wittmack) derived from four wheat cultivars (Triticum aestivum L.) and two rye inbred lines (Secale cereale L.) differing in aluminum (Al) resistance were investigated with respect to their response to Al supply. Aluminum‐induced inhibition of root elongation (48 h, 25 µM Al supply), callose formation, and the accumulation of Al in root tips (4 h, 25 µM Al supply) were used as parameters to assess Al resistance. Using these parameters, the existing information on Al resistance of the wheat and rye cultivars was generally confirmed. The triticale cultivars showed a wide range of Al resistance amongst the Al‐sensitive wheat and the Al‐resistant rye cultivars. The rye parents and the Al‐resistant wheat parent Carazinho were characterized by Al‐induced exudation particularly of citrate but also of malate from whole root systems of 14 d old seedlings (8 h, 50 µM Al supply). Regression analysis revealed that the degree of Al resistance of the triticale genotypes was closely related to the Al‐induced citrate exudation, which was mainly controlled by the Al resistance of the wheat parent.  相似文献

Despite numerous studies on phytosiderophores (PS) there is still an open question whether nickel (Ni) deficiency induces release of PS from graminaceous plant roots. Seedlings of two wheat cultivars (Triticum aestivum L. cvs. Rushan and Kavir) and a triticale cultivar (X. triticosecale) were grown in Ni‐free nutrient solution (Ni‐deficient, Ni–) and with 10 µM NiSO4 (Ni‐sufficient, Ni+, control). Root exudates were collected weekly for 4 weeks and the amount of PS in the root exudates was measured. The response to Ni deficiency on the release of PS differed between species. Roots of Rushan and triticale exuded higher PS in response to Ni‐deficient conditions. Nickel deficiency significantly enhanced shoot Fe and Zn concentrations in wheat, while it decreased shoot Fe and Zn concentrations in triticale. In Kavir, PS exudation was decreased by Ni deficiency at weeks 3 and 4 and the reduced release of PS from roots of Kavir was accompanied by lower concentrations of Fe and Zn in plant roots but higher Fe and Zn concentrations in shoot tissue. The PS release by Kavir was triggered by a Ni‐induced Zn deficiency particularly in the shoots. According to the results, it is suggested that in the studies concerning the phytosiderophore release under Ni deficiency, special attention should be given to different responses among and within cereals and to the plant Zn or Fe nutritional status.  相似文献

Boron (B) is an essential micronutrient for higher plants. It has been suggested that addition of B at an optimal concentration might alleviate Al toxicity. Little information is available about B effects on soybean seedling growth under Al stress and differential alleviation of B on Al toxicity. In the present study, the seedlings of two soybean cultivars (Williams and Nanrong 73-935) were grown in a solution with factorial combinations of Al (0, 2, and 5 mM) and B (0, 5, and 50 μM) in a randomized complete block design experiment for 18 days. The results showed that high B was found to ameliorate Al toxicity by significantly increasing the growth characters including root length under 2 mM Al stress, and epicotyl length and fresh weight under 5 mM Al stress of the two cultivars. However, high B concentration did not significantly increase chlorophyll content under Al stress. Williams was more sensitive than Nanrong 73-935 on the growth characters and chlorophyll content under double stresses (B deficiency combined with Al toxicity), although they had similar sensitivity to B deficiency stress alone for growth characters. In addition, high B concentration was found to cause toxicity symptoms on root length and older leaves of both cultivars under no Al stress.  相似文献

Abstract

Path analysis is a statistical technique that partitions correlations into direct and indirect effects and distinguishes between correlation and causation, whereas correlation in general measures the extent and direction (positive or negative) of a relationship occurring between two or more variables. The estimates of correlation and path coefficients can help us to understand the role and relative contribution of various plant traits in establishing growth behavior of crop cultivars under given environmental conditions. Dependence of shoot dry‐matter (SDM) production of six hydroponically grown Brassica cultivars on various growth parameters and characteristics of P metabolism was investigated using the modified Johnson's nutrient solution to maintain deficient (10 µM) and adequate (200 µM) P levels. Root dry‐matter (RDM), total dry‐matter, P content in shoot, and P‐utilization efficiency (PUE) had significant and positive effects on production of SDM in a P‐deficient environment. Root–shoot ratio (RSR), however, negatively affected SDM of cultivars exposed to P‐deficient conditions and did not show any impact on SDM production in either of the two treatments. In a pot study, six Brassica cultivars were grown in a sandy loam soil that was deficient in NaHCO3‐extractable P (3.9 mg P kg?1 soil) for 49 days. Significant positive correlations were observed between SDM and some other plant traits such as RDM, leaf area per plant, P uptake, and PUE, at both genotypic and phenotypic levels. The correlations of SDM with RSR, however, were not observed, implying that relative partitioning of biomass into roots or shoots had little role to play in SDM production by Brassica cultivars under P‐deficiency stress. Path analysis revealed that favorable impact of RDM and leaf area on SDM production was indirect through positive effect of these parameters on P uptake and PUE. Thus, under P‐deficiency stress, better P acquisition and efficient P utilization by the cultivars for biomass synthesis collectively formed the basis of higher SDM production by the cultivars, evidencing that P uptake and utilization efficiency are two important plant traits for selecting P‐deficiency‐stress‐tolerant Brassica cultivars.  相似文献

Exploitation of genetic differences to select wheat cultivars’ pollution-safe from cadmium (Cd) contamination requires better understanding of Cd uptake and translocation patterns. For this purpose, 15 wheat cultivars were grown in nutrient solution and exposed to four levels of Cd, i.e., 0, 15, 30, and 45 µM. The plants were harvested after 2 weeks of Cd exposure. Root and shoot relative dry matter (DM) was decreased in most of the cultivars, but some cultivars did not exhibit any toxic symptoms. The lowest Cd concentration in shoots was recorded for Lasani-2008 and Iqbal-2000 while the highest for Sehar-2006 and Inqlab-91. Both root absorption and translocation accounted for regulating Cd concentration in shoots. There was no relationship between relative DM and Cd concentrations in roots and shoots. The results suggest that wheat cultivars with low shoot Cd concentration but higher tolerance, i.e. Lasani-2008 and Iqbal-2000, could be used in breading programs for low Cd wheat.  相似文献

Boron (B) is one of the essential nutrients for the growth of plants, but its high concentrations are toxic for plants. Thus, B toxicity is a big challenge in crop cultivation. Nitric oxide (NO) is a small signaling molecule that has cytoprotective roles in plants. We investigated whether exogenous sodium nitroprusside (SNP), which is a NO donor, may succeed to alleviate B-induced toxicity in wheat cultivars. Seedlings were grown for 10 days in a growth chamber at 25°C with 16 hr light–8 hr dark photo cycle. After high B application, the effects of SNP on growth parameters; electrolyte leakage (EL); changes in reactive oxygen species [contents of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), malondialdehyde (MDA), and proline]; the activities of antioxidant enzymes [glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx), glutathione reductase (GR), and glutathione S-transferase (GST)] and nitrate reductase (NR); and low molecular weight organic acid (LMWOAs) contents and also chlorophyll and total carotenoid contents were investigated in both shoots and roots of two different wheat cultivars. All experiments were carried out in triplicate. 0.2 mM SNP application ameliorated the chlorophyll and total carotenoid contents, and growth parameters such as shoot length, root length, and fresh weight in both wheat cultivars exposed to B stress. SNP reduced the B-induced lipid peroxidation, EL, and proline and H2O2 content in wheat cultivars. SNP application also increased the activities of NR and antioxidant enzymes, including GSHPx, GR, and GST in wheat cultivars exposed to B toxicity. All of the tested LMWOAs including succinic, propionic, butyric, oxalic, formic, malic, malonic, and benzoic acids were increased by SNP treatment in the shoots and roots of both wheat cultivars exposed to B toxicity. In conclusion, results obtained from this study have demonstrated that interactive effects of SNP with B considerably reduced the toxic effects of B in wheat cultivars.  相似文献

A series of experiments was conducted to investigate the mechanism of Siinduced alleviation of Mn toxicity in pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata Duch cv. Shintosa) which has been used as a bloom-type stock for grafting cultivation of cucumbers. In the first experiment, the effect of Si on Mn toxicity in the Shintosa cultivar was compared with that in the Super unryu cultivar which is used as a bloomless-type stock. Without Si supply, growth depression occurred in both cultivars at the levels of 100 and 500 µM Mn in the nutrient solution. The alleviative effect of Si on the growth depression was observed more distinctly for the Shintosa cultivar than for the Super unryu cultivar, and the effect became more pronounced with increasing Si levels in the nutrient solution. Regardless of the Mn levels, addition of Si did not decrease the Mn content of the plants. The relative shoot growth was reduced to less than 80% when the molar ratio of Si/Mn in the shoots was lower than 4.5. In the second experiment, Mn and Si in the lower leaves of the Shintosa cultivar treated with different levels of Mn with and without Si supply were extracted with 10 mM Tris-HCI buffer (pH 7.4). At the levels of 100 and 250 µM Mn, the amounts of Mn in the buffer-insoluble fraction increased in the presence of Si supply and the buffer-soluble Mn accounted for less than 9% of the total Mn in the leaf. In addition, more than 84% of the total Si was found in the buffer-insoluble fraction at each Mn level. Distribution of Mn and Si on the surface of the lowerú leaves of the Shintosa cultivar treated with 250 µM Mn with and without Si supply was examined by electron probe X-ray microanalysis in the third experiment; Both Mn and Si accumulated at high concentrations around the base of the trichomes in the presence of Si supply. Without Si supply, Mn was detected around the necrotic brown lesions in addition to the base of the trichomes. These results suggested that in the Shintosa cultivar, Si alleviated the Mn toxicity through a localized accumulation of Mn with Si in a metabolically inactive form around the base of the trichomes on the leaf surface.  相似文献

Abstract

Zinc (Zn) deficiency is a yield limiting constraint for wheat production in central Iran. A field experiment was conducted for two consecutive years (1999/2000 and 2000/2001) to study Zn use efficiency of five wheat cultivars. Two Zn rates were used, i.e., 0 and 40 kg Zn ha?1 applied as zinc sulfate. Significant variation was found among wheat cultivars in relation to grain yield, straw yield, Zn use efficiency and yield components. Based on grain yield and Zn use efficiency across two years, cultivar Cross was most efficient and Dur-3 was most inefficient for Zn use efficiency. Cultivars Kavir, Falat, and Rushan were intermediate in Zn use efficiency. Zinc concentration and uptake were higher in the zinc efficient cultivar Cross, while these values were lowest in the Zn inefficient cultivar Dur-3.  相似文献

Abstract

Greenhouse experiments were carried out to study the influence of gyttja, a sedimentary peat, on the shoot dry weight and shoot concentrations of zinc (Zn) and boron (B) in one bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L., cv. Bezostaja) and one durum wheat (Triticum durum L., cv. Kiziltan) cultivar. Plants were grown in a Zn‐deficient (DTPA‐Zn: 0.09 mg kg?1 soil) and B‐toxic soil (CaCl2/mannitol‐extractable B: 10.5 mg kg?1 soil) with (+Zn = 5 mg Zn kg?1 soil) and without (?Zn = 0) Zn supply for 55 days. Gyttja containing 545 g kg?1 organic matter was applied to the soil at the rates of 0, 1, 2.5, 5, and 10% (w/w). When Zn and gyttja were not added, plants showed leaf symptoms of Zn deficiency and B toxicity, and had a reduced growth. With increased rates of gyttja application, shoot growth of both cultivars was significantly enhanced under Zn deficiency, but not at sufficient supply of Zn. The adverse effects of Zn deficiency and B toxicity on shoot dry matter production became very minimal at the highest rate of gyttja application. Increases in gyttja application significantly enhanced shoot concentrations of Zn in plants grown without addition of inorganic Zn. In Zn‐sufficient plants, the gyttja application up to 5% (w/w) did not affect Zn concentration in shoots, but at the highest rate of gyttja application there was a clear decrease in shoot Zn concentration. Irrespective of Zn supply, the gyttja application strongly decreased shoot concentration of B in plants, particularly in durum wheat. For example, in Zn‐deficient Kiziltan shoot concentration of B was reduced from 385 mg kg?1 to 214 mg kg?1 with an increased gyttja application. The results obtained indicate that gyttja is a useful organic material improving Zn nutrition of plants in Zn‐deficient soils and alleviating adverse effects of B toxicity on plant growth. The beneficial effects of gyttja on plant growth in the Zn‐deficient and B‐toxic soil were discussed in terms of increases in plant available concentration of Zn in soil and reduction of B uptake due to formation of tightly bound complexes of B with gyttja.  相似文献

The effect of aluminum (Al) toxicity on leaf gas exchange, leaf chlorophyll content, and sucrose metabolizing enzyme activity of two tomato cultivars (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. ‘Mountain Pride’ and ‘Floramerica') was studied to determine the mechanism of growth reduction observed in a related study (Simon et al., 1994, Part 1). Plants were grown in diluted nutrient solution (pH 4.0) with 0, 10, 25, or 50 μM. Al for 16 days. Leaf gas exchange was reduced 2–3 fold in both cultivars as Al concentration increased. Gas exchange of ‘Mountain Pride’ was more sensitive to Al toxicity than ‘Floramerica’, agreeing with growth responses observed. Reductions in carbon dioxide (CO2) assimilation rate appeared to be due to nonstomatal factors in ‘Floramerica’, but stomatal and non‐stomatal limitations in ‘Mountain Pride’. Chlorophyll content of leaves was not affected by Al. Acid invertase (AI) and neutral invertase (NI) activity of roots responded consistently to Al concentration in both cultivars. Root AI and NI activity decreased to a greater extent for ‘Mountain Pride’ than for ‘Floramerica’.  相似文献

This study investigated the effect of different boron concentrations on growth and physiological characteristics of olive plants. The absorption of some macronutrients and distribution of boron were also examined. This research was carried out in a completely randomized design with factorial arrangements including six boron levels (0.2, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 mg L?1) and two cultivars (Amygdalolia and Konservolia), with four replications for each treatment. Two-year old seedlings were treated with Hoagland nutrient solution containing different boron (B) concentration for 4 months. Chlorophyll fluorescence, fresh and dry weight of leaves, stems and roots as well as absorption of macronutrients decreased in both cultivars as the boron level were increased. Diagnostic symptoms of boron toxicity appeared 45 and 75 days after planting for Amygdaloila and Konservolia at 30, 40 and 50 mg L?1; and 40 and 50 mg L?1 of boron, respectively. Our results showed that at a higher level of B, the Konservolia cultivar maintained more B concentration in its root than Amygdalolia cultivar; however, B content in young leaves of Amygdalolia was higher than Konservolia. It seems that Konservolia cultivar could accumulate B in its roots and prevents its translocation to the leaves through an internal tolerance mechanism; therefore, Konservolia shows greater tolerance to high concentrations of boron compared to Amygdalolia.  相似文献

氮肥缓解苗期干旱对小麦根系形态建成及生理特性的影响   总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1  
为揭示氮肥缓解苗期干旱对小麦根系生长的影响,以高产高蛋白品种Spitfire(S)和抗旱品种Drysdale(D)为材料,采用沙培方式研究了不同氮素处理(180和22.5 kg·hm-2)和水分处理(干旱和正常浇水)对苗期小麦根系形态建成和生理生长的影响。结果表明,苗期干旱下增施氮肥减小了2个品种小麦根系总根长、根系表面积、总根体积、根尖数和分枝数,显著增加了根系直径和根系活力,S品种根系干重减小7.0%,而D品种根系干重增加12.0%。施高氮还降低了干旱下2个品种小麦根系可溶性糖含量,并提高了游离氨基酸含量,且耐旱性品种D变化幅度较大,2个品种根系可溶性蛋白含量的变化均不明显。此外,增施氮肥能促进根系对氮素的吸收,提高根系硝酸还原酶(NR)活性和含氮量。综上,在苗期干旱下增施氮肥能够促进小麦根系生长,提高根系活力和NR活性,以增强根系对氮素的吸收同化能力,促进氮代谢水平,从而提高小麦的抗旱性,但不同耐旱品种对干旱下增施氮肥的响应程度存在差异。本研究结果为通过增施氮肥有效缓解干旱进而提高小麦产量提供了理论依据。  相似文献

外源蔗糖对小麦幼苗耐盐性的影响   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
本研究选取小麦品种"沧6001"(抗盐性品种)和"石4185"(盐敏感品种)为试验材料,采用水培方法,对加入蔗糖后两个小麦品种的耐盐性进行比较。结果表明,盐胁迫下,"沧6001"和"石4185"小麦根系生长均受到抑制,"石4185"根系受到抑制的程度大于"沧6001";蔗糖预处理可以显著缓解盐胁迫对根系生长的抑制作用。蔗糖预处理12 h后,"沧6001"和"石4185"的可溶性糖含量上升,与"石4185"相比,"沧6001"具有更高的可溶性糖水平,但是蔗糖预处理后"石4185"可溶性糖含量的增加量高于"沧6001"。H2DCFDA荧光探针检测和PI荧光染色检测结果表明,蔗糖预处理可有效降低盐胁迫下小麦幼苗体内活性氧累积水平,保护细胞膜的完整性并减小根尖细胞死亡率。蔗糖预处理可以提高小麦幼苗SOD和APX(P<0.05)、CAT活性(P>0.05)。本研究对于理解外源物质对小麦耐盐性影响的生理机制及筛选耐盐性的小麦品种具有指导意义。  相似文献

Manganese (Mn) deficiency limits wheat productivity on sandy loam, calcareous and alkaline soils cropped with rice. Variation of wheat genotypes to sustain production and Mn use from Mn deficient condition was investigated to screen efficient genotypes. Forty-seven diverse wheat genotypes were evaluated on Mn sufficient (0.195 µM) and Mn deficient (0 µM) nutrient solution to elucidate physiological basis of Mn deficiency tolerance and to develop manganese deficiency tolerance index (MDTI). Shoot dry weight and mean Mn accumulation was 136.7% and 76.5% enhanced when Mn nutrition was improved, respectively. Efficient genotypes under limited Mn had lower root length/shoot weight ratio but higher relative shoot growth rate with higher shoot demand on root which reflected higher Mn influx. Genotypes were classified as tolerant (>0.66), semi-tolerant (0.33–0.66) and sensitive (<0.33) on the basis of MDTI (0–1 scale). Manganese efficient genotypes are most desirable for sustainable production of wheat under low Mn.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

In order to assess whether exogenous application of ascorbic acid (AsA) through different ways could alleviate the adverse effects of salt-induced adverse effects on two wheat cultivars differing in salinity tolerance, plants of a salt tolerant (‘S-24’) and a moderately salt sensitive (‘MH-97’) cultivar were grown at 0 or 120 mM sodium chloride (NaCl). Ascorbic acid (100 mg L?1) was applied through the rooting medium, or as seed soaking or as foliar spray to non-stressed and salt stressed plants of wheat. Salt stress-induced reduction in growth was ameliorated by exogenous application of ascorbic acid through different ways. However, root applied AsA caused more growth enhancement under saline conditions. Leaf ascorbic acid, catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities were also maximal in salt stressed plants of both cultivars treated with AsA through the rooting medium. Furthermore, leaf ascorbic acid, CAT, POD, and SOD activities were higher in salt stressed plants of ‘S-24’ than those of ‘MH-97’. Root applied AsA caused more enhancements in photosynthetic rate. Root applied AsA caused more reduction in leaf sodium (Na+) compared with AsA applied as a seed soaking or foliar spray. Overall, AsA-induced growth improvement in these two wheat cultivars under saline conditions was cultivar specific and seemed to be associated with higher endogenous AsA, which triggered the antioxidant system and enhanced photosynthetic capacity.  相似文献

Soil organic matter (SOM) is a key of most nutrient cycling and its content influences labile phosphorus (P) pool. In order to promote P availability from SOM, some plant strategies could be important to increase organic P mineralization, which may change among cultivars of the same crop. This study evaluated phosphorus dynamics in the rhizosphere of two wheat cultivars in soil with high organic matter content. Experiment was established in a greenhouse using a Humic Cambisol in a randomized block design using Quartzo and Abalone as wheat cultivars and harvested 20 days after seedling. Pots with a horizontal mesh (25 µm) were used to isolate the soil from roots. At harvest, the soil under the mesh was sliced in five distances from the rhizoplane (0–3; 3–6; 6–10; 10–20; 20–30 mm). Organic P was the buffer to maintain P dynamics in the rhizosphere and there was phosphorus depletion in the first slice near the rhizoplane due to the root effect, regardless the cultivar. Quartzo showed high labile inorganic P, presumably due to the high amount of root hairs, which increased the acid phosphatase activity and consequently root P uptake. Quartzo was more efficient in changing rhizosphere regarding the P acquisition.  相似文献
