The physiological effects of elevated CO2 and/or O3 on Solanum tuberosum cv. Bintje were examined in Open-Top Chambers during 1998 and 1999 at experimental sites across Europe as part of the EU ‘Changing Climate and Potential Impacts on Potato Yield and Quality’ programme (CHIP). At tuber initiation (≈20 days after emergence, DAE) elevated CO2 (680 μl l−1) induced a 40% increase in the light saturated photosynthetic rate (Asat) of fully expanded leaves in the upper canopy. This was 16% less than expected from short-term exposures of plants grown under ambient CO2 (360 μl l−1) to elevated CO2, indicating that photosynthetic acclimation began at an early stage of crop growth. This effect resulted from a combination of a 12% reduction in stomatal conductance (gs) and a decline in photosynthetic capacity, as indicated by the significant reductions in the maximum carboxylation rate of Rubisco (Vcmax) and light-saturated rate of electron transport (Jmax) under elevated CO2. The seasonal decline in the promotion of photosynthesis by elevated CO2 reflected the concurrent decrease in gs. Vcmax and Jmax were both reduced in plants grown under elevated CO2 until shortly after maximum leaf area (MLA) was attained. Although non-photorespiratory mitochondrial respiration in the light (Rd) increased during the later stages of the season, net photosynthesis was consistently increased by elevated CO2 during the main part of the season. Photosynthetic rate declined more rapidly in response to elevated O3 under ambient CO2, and the detrimental impact of O3 was most obvious after MLA was attained (DAE 40–50). Several exposure indices were compared, with the objective of determining the critical ozone level required to induce physiological effects. The critical O3 exposure above which a 5% reduction in light saturated photosynthetic rate may be expected (expressed in terms of cumulative exposure above 0 nl l−1 O3 between emergence and specific dates during the season (AOT0-cum)) was 11 μl l−1 h; however this value should only be extrapolated beyond the CHIP dataset with caution. The interaction between O3 and stomatal behaviour was more complex, as it was influenced by both long-term and daily exposure levels. Elevated CO2 counteracted the adverse effect of O3 on photosynthesis, perhaps because the observed reduction in stomatal conductance decreased O3 fluxes into the leaves. The results are discussed in the context of nitrogen deficiency, carbohydrate accumulation and yield.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to identify the physiological characteristics which may affect the yield of six cool-season grain legume species grown in a water-limited Mediterranean-type climate in Western Australia. The rate of net photosynthesis, stomatal conductance and water relations were measured from flowering to complete leaf senescence in white lupin, chickpea, faba bean, field pea, grass pea and lentil. In irrigated plants, the midday leaf water potential was about −0.6 MPa in all species, while the maximum rate of leaf photosynthesis was 30 μmol m−2 s−1 for chickpea and white lupin, and below 20 μmol m−2 s−1 for the other species. With the development of water deficits, the leaf water potential in rain-fed plants decreased to about −3 MPa in chickpea and lentil and −2 MPa in the other species. Photosynthesis and stomatal conductance decreased markedly as the leaf water potential decreased below −0.9 MPa in all six species, including chickpea and lentil, which showed a high degree of osmotic adjustment. Despite the similarity in water use, restricted to the top 40 cm of soil, and water relations characteristics, yields varied markedly among species. Yields were strongly correlated with early biomass production and early pod development.  相似文献

Spring wheat cv. Minaret crop stands were grown under ambient and elevated CO2 concentrations at seven sites in Germany, Ireland, the UK, Belgium and the Netherlands. Six of the sites used open-top chambers and one used a controlled environment mimicking field conditions. The effect of elevated CO2 for a range of N application regimes, O3 concentrations, and growth temperatures on flag leaf photosynthesis was studied. Before anthesis, flag leaf photosynthesis was stimulated about 50% by 650 compared with 350 μmol mol−1 CO2 at all sites, regardless of other treatments. Furthermore, there was no evidence of a decrease in photosynthetic capacity of flag leaves due to growth at elevated CO2 before anthesis, even for low N treatments. However, photosynthetic capacity, particularly carboxylation capacity, of flag leaves was usually decreased by growth at elevated CO2 after anthesis, especially in low N treatments. Acclimation of photosynthesis to elevated CO2 therefore appears to occur only slowly, consistent with a response to changes in sink–source relationships, rather than a direct response. Effect of elevated CO2 on stomatal conductance was much more variable between sites and treatments, but on average was decreased by ˜10% at 650 compared with 350 μmol mol−1 CO2. Carboxylation capacity of flag leaves was decreased by growth at elevated O3 both before and after anthesis, regardless of CO2 concentration.  相似文献

The present study was conducted to investigate the possible interactive effects of rising atmospheric CO2 concentration [CO2] and drought stress on water use of wheat. Spring wheat (Triticum aestivum cv. “Minaret”) was grown either in 1 m diameter lysimeters with 0.4 m soil depth (1998) or in the field (1999) in open-top chambers under two CO2-concentrations (ambient, ambient + 280 ppm) and two watering regimes (well-watered = WW with a plant available water content PAW > 40 mm and drought stressed = DS, 10 mm < PAW < 30 mm) beginning after first node stage. Canopy evapotranspiration (EC) was measured continuously from first the node stage until the beginning of flag leaf senescence using four open-system canopy chambers (0.78 m3). Seasonal changes of the absorption of photosynthetically active radiation (APAR) of the canopy and root growth (1999) were also measured.

In both growing seasons leaf area index increased in response to elevated [CO2] in both water treatments. The related effects of [CO2] on canopy radiation absorption (APAR) were, however, smaller. EC was linearily related to APAR in both growing seasons. While elevated [CO2] reduced the slope of this relation under WW conditions by ca. 20% in both growing seasons, it was not reduced (1998) and even increased (1999) under drought. Canopy conductance (GC) calculated as EC divided by vapour pressure deficit of air, showed a non-linear relationship to APAR that was best explained by saturation curves. Under WW conditions, elevated [CO2] reduced the initial slope of GC versus APAR as well as GC at saturating light conditions (ca. −30%), while under DS conditions no effect of elevated [CO2] could be detected. Under high light conditions (PAR > 400 μmol m−2 s−1) a critical “threshold value” of PAW (TPAW, ca. 40 mm) could be identified above which GC did not respond to PAW. While in 1998 GC did not respond to elevated [CO2] at PAW < TPAW, it was slightly increased at low PAW values in the field experiments of 1999. The reduction of TPAW by elevated [CO2] may be explained by enhanced root growth (1999) that would have given the plants better access to soil water resources. The present results suggest that below a critical soil water content elevated [CO2] will not reduce canopy water loss of wheat or may even enhance it.  相似文献

Central to the CHanging climate and potential Impacts on Potato yield and quality project (CHIP) was the consideration of the potential impacts of ozone and CO2 on growth and yield of future European Potato crops. Potato crops, cv. Bintje, were exposed to ambient or elevated ozone; targeted daily average, 60 nl l−1 for 8 h, and ambient or elevated CO2; targeted 680 μl l−1 averaged over the full growing season, in open top chambers (OTCs) at six European sites in 1998 and 1999, or to elevated CO2 (550 μl l−1) in Free Air Carbon dioxide Enrichment facilities (FACE) at two sites in both years. Some OTC experiments included 550 μl l−1. Above and below ground biomass were measured at two destructive harvests; at maximum leaf area (MLA) and at final-harvest. Final-harvest fresh weight yields of marketable-size tubers, >35 mm diameter, from ambient conditions ranged from 1 to 12 kg m−2. There was no consistent (P>0.1) CO2×O3 interaction for growth or yield variables at either harvest. No consistent effects of ozone were detected at the maximum-leaf-area harvest. However, at final harvest, ozone had reduced both above-ground biomass and tuber dry weight (P<0.05), particularly of the largest (>50 mm) size class. These yield losses showed linear relationships both with accumulated ozone exposure; AOT40 expressed as nl l−1 h over 40 nl l−1, and with yields from chambered ambient-ozone treatments (P<0.05) but, because of partial confounding between the treatment AOT40s and the ambient-ozone yields in the data, the two relationships were not completely independent. Yields from ambient-ozone treatments, however, explained a significant (P<0.01) amount of the residual variation in ozone effects unexplained by AOT40. When averaged over all experiments, mean dry weights and tuber numbers from both harvests were increased by elevated CO2. Only green leaf number at the MLA harvest was reduced. The CO2 responses varied between sites and years. For marketable-size tubers, this variation was unrelated to variation in ambient-CO2 treatment yields. Yield increases resulting from the 680 μl l−1 and 550 μl l−1 treatments were similar. Thus elevating [CO2] from 550 to 680 μl l−1 was less effective than elevating [CO2] from ambient to 550 μl l−1. On average, CO2 elevation to 680 μl l−1 increased the dry weight of marketable-size tubers by about 17%, which far exceeded the average ozone-induced yield loss of about 5%. The net effect of raising CO2 and O3 concentrations on the European potato crop would be an increase marketable yield.  相似文献

Microbial proliferation and sensory quality aspects of sliced onions were tested at different temperatures (−2, 4 and 10 °C) and atmospheric conditions (with or without 40% CO2 + 59% N2 + 1% O2). The relationships among microorganism growth parameters (the initial cell number (N0), the maximum cell number (Nmax), the maximum specific growth rate (μmax) and lag-phase (λ)) and the microbial or sensory shelf life were determined. The microorganism growth parameters were obtained by fitting the modified Gompertz equation to the microbial counts. The results showed that color intensity (yellowness), sensory scores and microbial counts increased, and firmness decreased during storage. The total plate counts (TPC) provided the best indication of the spoilage organism growth capacity under tested temperatures and atmospheric conditions. The microbial shelf lives of the tested onions in 40% CO2 + 59% N2 + 1% O2, or at −2, 4 and 10 °C, were 12.5, 9.5, 7, 12, 9 and 6 days, respectively, and their sensory shelf lives were 12, 8, 5, 10.5, 7 and 5 days, respectively. The lag time (λ) of the TPC, coliforms, pseudomonads and yeasts correlated well with the microbial and sensory shelf life results. The correlations between microbial and sensory shelf life, and the μmax of TPC, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and coliforms were between (−0.61 and −0.85). The initial microbial counts (N0) of the five microorganisms showed a slight correlation, and the maximum microbial counts (Nmax) of this group showed no obvious correlation with onion shelf life, apart from the LAB and yeasts.  相似文献

为阐明大气CO2浓度升高和不同氮素水平对湿地植物光合生理特性和生长的影响,本研究以三江平原湿地优势植物小叶章(Calamagrostis angustifolia)为研究对象,通过野外原位控制试验,利用开顶式气室(OTC)模拟环境大气CO2浓度变化,设置E0(380 ±20 µmol/mol)、E1(550 ±20 μmol/mol)和E2(700 ± 20 μmol/mol)3个CO2浓度;在每个OTC内设置 N0(0 g N/m2)、N1(4 g N/m2)和N2(8 g N/m2)3个氮素水平。结果表明,N0条件下,与E0处理相比,E1和E2处理（72 天）后小叶章叶片净光合速率分别降低11%和12%(P<0.05),其叶片可溶性蛋白含量、氮素含量（CO2熏蒸72 天）、小叶章株高（CO2熏蒸86 天）均显著低于E0处理(P<0.05);N1条件下,与E0处理相比,E1和E2处理（72 天）后小叶章叶片净光合速率降低5%(P>0.05)和10%(P<0.05),其叶片氮素含量(P<0.05)、小叶章株高均低于E0处理;N2条件下,E1和E2处理（72 天）小叶章净光合速率均呈稍增加的趋势(P>0.05),其叶片可溶性蛋白含量显著增加(P<0.05),氮素含量和小叶章株高无显著变化(P>0.05)。N0、N1和N2条件下,CO2浓度升高均显著增加了小叶章叶片可溶性糖含量。本研究表明长期CO2浓度升高可能通过降低小叶章叶片光合酶活性,进而降低了其净光合速率,而施加高浓度的氮肥可以缓解长期高CO2浓度对湿地植物光合及生长的负面影响。  相似文献

Measurements of stomatal conductance on field-grown potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) cv. Bintje from the CHIP programme were combined to study the response to environmental factors. 3274 data points were used. Data were obtained from five sites: Jokioinen in Finland, Östad in Sweden, Giessen in Germany, Tervuren in Belgium and Sutton Bonnington in UK. Measurements were made in open-top chamber treatments with ozone and carbon dioxide exposure and in the ambient air. A typical light response curve was obtained with light saturation at approximately 400 μmol m−2 s−1 photosynthetically active radiation (PAR). The leaf temperature optimum for stomatal conductance was 29 °C. The stomatal conductance declined strongly at leaf-to-air vapour pressure differences >20 hPa. An elevated carbon dioxide concentration (680 μl l−1) reduced the stomatal conductance by up to approximately 20%. Elevated ozone reduced the stomatal conductance towards the end of the growth period, in addition to the negative effect by ordinary senescence on stomatal conductance. A multiplicative model, based on the boundary line technique, was used to estimate the relationship between stomatal conductance and the environmental variables. Test with the data sets from two sites providing sufficient data, Östad and Giessen, showed that the multiplicative model had R2-values of 0.60 and 0.42, respectively, for the relationship between calculated and observed conductance. Test of the model with an independent data set from an open-top chamber experiment with the potato cultivar Kardal showed an R2 of 0.59 between calculated and observed conductance. The conductance model was used to estimate the accumulated ozone uptake (CUO3) by potato leaves from emergence to harvest. The relationship between CUO3 and relative yield loss, using a threshold for the ozone uptake rate of 7 nmol m−2 s−1, provided a higher R2-value (0.45) than CUO3 without any threshold and relationships based on the accumulated exposure over 40 nmol mol−1 (AOT40) or the sum of all hourly average ozone concentrations exceeding 60 nmol mol−1 (SUM06). All four relationships were however statistically significant.  相似文献

The influence of ultraviolet (UV-C) light (1.4–13.7 kJ m−2 at 254 nm) on the quality and microbial populations of fresh-cut watermelon [Citrulus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. and Nakai] was investigated and compared to that of common sanitizing solutions used for fresh-cut produce. Dipping cubes in chlorine (40 μL L−1) and ozone (0.4 μL L−1) was not effective in reducing microbial populations and quality was lower in cubes receiving these aqueous treatments compared to UV-irradiated cubes or control. In commercial trials, exposing packaged watermelons cubes to UV-C light at 4.1 kJ m−2 produced >1 log reduction in microbial populations by the end of the product's shelf life without affecting juice leakage, color and, overall visual quality. In further experimentation, lower UV-C dose (1.4 kJ m−2) reduced microbial populations to a lower degree and only when complete surface exposure was ensured. Higher UV-C doses did not show any difference in microbial populations (6.3 kJ m−2) or result in quality deterioration (13.7 kJ m−2). Spray applications of hydrogen peroxide (2%) and chlorine (40 μL L−1), without subsequent removal of excess water, failed to further decrease microbial load of cubes exposed to UV-C light at 4.1 kJ m−2. When properly utilized, UV-C light is the only method tested in this study that could potentially be used for sanitizing fresh-cut watermelon.  相似文献

A major objective of the ESPACE—wheat programme was to perform by means of open-top chambers (OTCs) ‘standardised’ experimental investigations of spring wheat responses to increased atmospheric CO2 and O3 concentrations and to other environmental stresses at different locations in Europe, representing a broad range of different climatic conditions. From 1994 to 1996 a total number of 25 OTC experiments were carried out. In addition, four growth chamber experiments focusing on key physiological processes of wheat growth in CO2-enriched air were performed. According to the specific needs for subsequent modelling purposes, environmental data were collected during experiments, i.e. air temperature, global radiation, humidity and trace gas concentrations. In the present paper results of these measurements are summarised. It was shown, that the OTC-experiments covered a considerable range of growing season mean-air-temperatures (13.0–23.4°C) and global irradiances (10.8–18.1 MJ m−2 d−1), the most important driving variables for crop growth simulation models. Mean concentrations of CO2 and O3 in ambient air and in different treatments illustrated the observed variability of trace gas exposures between different experiments. Implications for subsequent analyses of biological response data are discussed.  相似文献

Spring wheat cv. Minaret was grown in open-top chambers at four sites across Europe. The effect of different treatments (CO2 enrichment, O3 fumigation, drought stress and temperature) on the chlorophyll content of the flag leaf was investigated using the MINOLTA SPAD-502 meter. Under optimum growth conditions the maximum chlorophyll content, which was reached at anthesis, was consistent among the sites ranging from 460 to 500 mg chlorophyll m−2. No significant effect of elevated CO2 or O3 was observed at anthesis. Leaf senescence, indicated by the chlorophyll breakdown after anthesis, was relatively constant in the control chambers. Under control conditions, thermal time until 50% chlorophyll loss was reached was 600°C day. Elevated CO2 caused a faster decline in chlorophyll content (thermal time until 50% chlorophyll loss was reduced to 500–580°C day) indicating a faster rate of plant development at two experimental sites. The effect of ozone on chlorophyll content depended on the time and dose of O3 exposure. During grain filling, high O3 concentrations induced premature senescence of the flag leaves (up to −130°C day). This deleterious effect was mitigated by elevated CO2. Drought stress led to faster chlorophyll breakdown irrespective of CO2 treatment.  相似文献

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L cv. Bintje) was exposed to ambient and elevated carbon dioxide (CO2), to ambient and elevated ozone (O3) and to elevated levels of both gases during two growing seasons, 1998 and 1999. Experiments in open-top chambers (OTC) were carried out in Finland, Sweden, Ireland, United Kingdom, Germany and Belgium and a FACE (Free Air Carbon dioxide Enrichment) experiment was carried out in Italy. In OTCs the plants were grown under ambient CO2 concentrations or with 550 and 680 μl l−1 CO2 alone or in combination with ambient or elevated O3 concentrations (target seasonal mean of 60 nl l−1 8 h per day). In the FACE systems the plants were exposed to ambient or 550 μl l−1 CO2. In the OTC experiments the reducing sugar content of potato tubers decreased significantly with increased concentration of O3. The starch content of potato tubers decreased, with negative impact on tuber quality, but the ascorbic acid concentration increased as a function of the AOT40 (The sum of the differences between hourly ozone concentration and 40 nl l−1 for each hour when the concentration exceeds 40 nl l−1 during a relevant growing season). However, simultaneous exposure to elevated CO2 counteracted the ozone effect. With increase in the CO2 exposure, glycoalkaloid and nitrate concentrations decreased yielding improved quality, while the citric acid concentration decreased causing a higher risk for discoloration after cooking. The amount of dry matter and starch increased significantly in the FACE experiment.  相似文献

Nutrient element concentrations and grain quality were assessed in spring wheat grown under elevated CO2 concentrations and contrasting levels of tropospheric ozone at different nitrogen supply rates at several European sites. Carbon dioxide enrichment proved to affect nutrient concentrations in a complex manner. In green leaves, all elements (with exception of phosphorus and iron) decreased. In contrast, effects on the element composition of grains were restricted to reductions in nitrogen, calcium, sulphur and iron. Ozone exposure resulted in no significant effects on nutrient element concentrations in different tissues in the overall analysis. The nitrogen demand of green tissues was reduced due to CO2 enrichment as shown by reductions in the critical leaf nitrogen concentration and also enhanced nitrogen use efficiency. Reductions in the content of ribulose-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase and repression of the photorespiratory pathway and reduced nitrogen allocation to enzymes driving the photosynthetic carbon oxidation cycle were chiefly responsible for this effect. Thus, nitrogen acquisition by the crop did not match carbon acquisition under CO2 enrichment. Since crop nitrogen uptake from the soil was already completed at anthesis, nitrogen allocated to the grain after anthesis originated from vegetative pools—causing grain nitrogen concentrations to decrease under CO2 enrichment (on average by 15% when CO2 concentrations increased from 360 to 680 μmol mol−1). Correspondingly, grain quality was reduced by CO2 enrichment. The Zeleny value, Hagberg value and dry/wet gluten content decreased significantly with increasing [CO2]. Despite the beneficial impact of CO2 enrichment on growth and yield of C3 cereal crops, declines in flour quality due to reduced nitrogen content are likely in a future, [CO2]-rich world.  相似文献

The response of cabbage to controlled atmospheres (CA) of 1–3% O2 and 1–10% CO2; 3% O2 and 5% CO2 was studied in relation to the incidence of physiological and pathological disorders. Fungal infections, pepper spot, low oxygen injury, weight loss, colour, odour, flavour and ethanol were evaluated. The findings show that CA did not reduce Botrytis cinerea rot in comparison to low temperature storage in air. PVC film and CA, on the other hand, reduced pepper spot by over 50% with respect to the air control. In particular, pepper spot was eliminated by high CO2 (10%) levels. Low O2 (1% O2 and 1% CO2) atmospheres caused 33 and 50% injury respectively after 89 and 109 days of storage. CA and PVC film reduced weight loss to 1%, as compared with 11% in the heads in air, which had shrivelled. The combination of 3% O2/5% CO2 and PVC film delayed yellowing with respect to air control. Concentrations of 1–3% O2 and 10% CO2 resulted in off odours and flavours after 74 days of storage. This result was confirmed by a considerable increase in ethanol concentrations. The most effective concentration tested was 3%O2/5%CO2 although, in general, infection by B. cinerea limited the storage life.  相似文献

This paper describes the effects of elevated CO2 (550 and 680 μl l−1) and O3 (60 nl l−1 O3 as an 8 h mean), alone or in combination, on canopy development and senescence in potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv Bintje) across a range of European agro-climatic conditions. The assessments were made within the European CHIP project (CHanging climate and potential Impacts on Potato yield and quality) that was conducted for two growing seasons (1998 and 1999) in free air CO2 enrichment systems (FACE) and open-top chamber facilities (OTCs) at seven European sites. A comparison of chambered and unchambered experimental plots was included to examine the effects of chamber enclosure. Phenological growth stages, plant height, leaf area index (LAI) and the number of green and yellow leaves were recorded non-destructively throughout the growing season and by a destructive intermediate harvest at maximum leaf area (MLA). In the dynamic growth analysis CO2 and O3 effects were studied over three developmental stages: canopy expansion, full canopy and canopy senescence. Chamber enclosures promoted potato crop development (taller plants, more leaves) during the initial growth stages and led to a faster decline of LAI and a higher number of yellow leaves. The growth in ambient plots varied between sites and seasons, as did the scale of the treatment responses. Despite the large background variation, some overall treatment effects could be detected across all sites. Both levels of increased CO2 reduced final plant height in comparison to ambient concentrations, which indicates a premature ending of the active plant growth. At the stage of full canopy and crop senescence the average number of green leaves was significantly (P<0.05) decreased by 680 μl l−1 CO2 (OTC experiments) and LAI showed the same tendency (P=0.07). As there was however no indication of a decreased leaf formation during initial growth and at full canopy, this must have been due to an earlier leaf fall. In the FACE experiments LAI had already began to decline at the stage of full canopy at 550 μl l−1 CO2 but not in ambient CO2 (DAE×CO2, P<0.05). These observations strongly indicated that elevated CO2 induced a premature senescence during full canopy. O3 did not have an overall detrimental effect on crop development during initial growth nor at full canopy, but did induce a faster reduction of LAI during crop senescence (DAE×O3, P<0.05). Final plant height was not affected by O3. There were few CO2×O3 interactions detected. There was a suggestion (P=0.06) that O3 counteracted the CO2-induced decrease of green leaves at full canopy, but on the other hand during crop senescence the decline of LAI due to elevated O3 was faster at ambient compared to elevated CO2 (P<0.05). These responses of canopy development to elevated CO2 and O3 help to explain the treatment responses of potato yield within the CHIP project at sites across Europe.  相似文献

Potato cv. Bintje was grown in open-top-chambers and free-air-CO2-enrichment systems at 7 sites across Europe for 2 years (1998–99). The effect of different treatments (CO2 enrichment and O3 fumigation) on the chlorophyll content of fully expanded upper and lower canopy leaves was investigated collecting Minolta SPAD-502 meter readings. In both CO2 treated and O3 fumigated plants, leaves had lower chlorophyll content than those in ambient air controls; season-long chlorophyll averages were 9.3% lower in the ‘CO2’ treatments, 9.1% lower in ‘O3’ treatments and 12.3% lower in ‘CO2+O3’ treatments. The analysis of chlorophyll content in three different growth phases (Emergence–Tuber Initiation; Tuber Initiation–Maximum Leaf Area; Maximum Leaf Area–Harvest) showed that in the early growth period, i.e. before tuber initiation there was a slight indication for an higher chlorophyll content at elevated CO2 (+3.8%) or O3 (+1.7%). However, from tuber initiation onwards the leaves of plants grown under elevated CO2 or O3 showed a progressively lower chlorophyll content (−4.8% for CO2 treatments and −2.6% for O3 treatments) indicating a faster senescence of leaves that increased during the late growth period (−12.8% for CO2 treatments and −12.7% for O3 treatments) and that was enhanced by CO2–O3 interaction (−17.8%).  相似文献

In order to evaluate the possibility of reducing energy input in giant reed (Arundo donax L.) as a perennial biomass crop, a field experiment was carried out from 1996 to 2001 in central Italy. Crop yield response to fertilisation (200–80–200 kg ha−1 N–P–K), harvest time (autumn and winter) and plant density (20,000 and 40,000 plants per ha) was evaluated. The energy balance was assessed considering the energy costs of production inputs and the energy output obtained by the transformation of the final product. The crop yield increased by +50% from the establishment period to the 2nd year of growth when it achieved the highest dry matter yield. The mature crop displayed on average annual production rates of 3 kg dry matter m−2, with maximum values obtained in fertilised plot and during winter harvest time.

Fertilisation mainly enhanced dry matter yield in the initial period (+0.7 kg dry matter m−2 as years 1–6 mean value). The biomass water content was affected by harvest time, decreasing by about 10% from autumn to winter. With regard to plant density, higher dry matter yields were achieved with 20,000 plants per ha (+0.3 kg dry matter m−2 as years 1–6 mean value).

The total energy input decreased from fertilised (18 GJ ha−1) to not fertilised crops (4 GJ ha−1). The higher energetic input was represented by fertilisation which involved 14 GJ ha−1 (fertilisers plus their distribution) of total energy costs. This value represents 78% of total energy inputs for fertilised crops.

Giant reed biomass calorific mean value (i.e., the calorific value obtained from combustion of biomass sample in an adiabatic system) was about 17 MJ kg−1 dry matter and it was not affected by fertilisation, or by plant density or harvest time. Fertilisation enhanced crop biomass yield from 23 to 27 dry tonnes per ha (years 1–6 mean value). This 15% increase was possible with an energy consumption of 70% of the overall energy cost. Maximum energy yield output was 496 GJ ha−1, obtained with 20,000 plants per ha and fertilisation. From the establishment period to 2nd–6th year of growth the energy production efficiency (as ratio between energy output and energy input per ha) and the net energy yield (as difference between energy output and energy input per ha) increased due to the low crop dry biomass yield and the high energy costs for crop planting. The energy production efficiency and net energy yield were also affected by fertilisation and plant density. In the mature crop the energy efficiency was highest without fertilisation both with 20,000 (131 GJ ha−1) and 40,000 plants per ha (119 GJ ha−1).  相似文献

The in vitro mortality of eggs and third instar larvae of Anastrepha ludens and A. obliqua was determined after exposure to 21 treatments of air or controlled atmospheres (CA) at high temperatures and 50% RH. Air at 44°C for 160 min caused very low mortality, which increased significantly by CA. Higher temperatures caused a more rapid kill. One hundred percent mortality was achieved for third instar larvae of both species in air or CA at 48°C for 220 min. A 100% mortality of eggs of A. ludens was achieved in air at 51°C for 240 min or in CA at 52°C for 240 min, and 100% mortality of eggs of A. obliqua was achieved in air or in CA at 55°C for 240 min. A. obliqua was slightly more tolerant than A. ludens, and eggs were more tolerant than third instar larvae in both species. CA had a synergistic effect at <50°C, but was slightly less effective than air at higher temperatures. Low O2 concentrations were more effective than high CO2 levels. The mean estimated temperatures for 50, 99 and 99.9968% mortality (LT50s, LT99s, LT99.9968s) of eggs of A. obliqua (the most tolerant) exposed to 0 kPa O2+50 kPa CO2 for 240 min were 49.4, 54.8 and 60.9°C, respectively. We conclude that dry hot air at ≥44°C and 50% RH in CA (0 kPa O2+50 kPa CO2), for 160 min or longer, is effective in increasing mortality of eggs and third instar larvae of A. ludens and A. obliqua.  相似文献

以黑龙江省主栽红小豆品种珍珠红为供试材料,采用盆栽方式,分别在苗期、花荚期和鼓粒期喷施0（CK）、50、100和200μmol/L褪黑素,探讨外源褪黑素对红小豆生长、光合荧光特性和产量构成因素的影响。结果表明,与CK相比,50、100和200μmol/L褪黑素处理均能增加红小豆株高、叶面积和干物质积累,提高红小豆净光合速率、蒸腾速率、气孔导度、胞间CO2浓度、最大光化学效率和潜在光化学活性,且褪黑素浓度为100μmol/L时各指标提高幅度最大。在苗期、花荚期、鼓粒期喷施100μmol/L褪黑素处理的红小豆单株粒重分别为5.53、6.13和5.90g,与CK相比分别增加了6.3%、12.1%和9.5%。综上可知,红小豆花荚期喷施100μmol/L褪黑素增产效果最显著。  相似文献
