The interactions between soil P availability and mycorrhizal fungi could potentially impact the activity of soil microorganisms and enzymes involved in nutrient turnover and cycling, and subsequent plant growth. However, much remains to be known of the possible interactions among phosphorus availability and mycorrhizal fungi in the rhizosphere of berseem clover (Trifolium alexandrinum L.) grown in calcareous soils deficient in available P. The primary purpose of this study was to look at the interaction between P availability and an arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus (Glomus intraradices) on the growth of berseem clover and on soil microbial activity associated with plant growth. Berseem clover was grown in P unfertilized soil (−P) and P fertilized soil (+P), inoculated (+M) and non-inoculated (−M) with the mycorrhizal fungus for 70 days under greenhouse conditions. We found an increased biomass production of shoot and root for AM fungus-inoculated berseem relative to uninoculated berseem grown at low P levels. AM fungus inoculation led to an improvement of P and N uptake. Soil respiration (SR) responded positively to P addition, but negatively to AM fungus inoculation, suggesting that P limitation may be responsible for stimulating effects on microbial activity by P fertilization. Results showed decreases in microbial respiration and biomass C in mycorrhizal treatments, implying that reduced availability of C may account for the suppressive effects of AM fungus inoculation on microbial activity. However, both AM fungus inoculation and P fertilization affected neither substrate-induced respiration (SIR) nor microbial metabolic quotients (qCO2). So, both P and C availability may concurrently limit the microbial activity in these calcareous P-fixing soils. On the contrary, the activities of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and acid phosphatase (ACP) enzymes responded negatively to P addition, but positively to AM fungus inoculation, indicating that AM fungus may only contribute to plant P nutrition without a significant contribution from the total microbial activity in the rhizosphere. Therefore, the contrasting effects of P and AM fungus on the soil microbial activity and biomass C and enzymes may have a positive or negative feedback to C dynamics and decomposition, and subsequently to nutrient cycling in these calcareous soils. In conclusion, soil microbial activity depended on the addition of P and/or the presence of AM fungus, which could affect either P or C availability. 相似文献

The Egyptian clover ( Trifolium alexandrinum L.) commonly known as berseem in India, is a predominantly self-pollinated autogamous fodder legume. It has a simple valvular type mechanism for pollination wherein tripping agencies like bees are needed for better seed setting. The seed setting efficiency and seed yield of berseem (g. m−2 ) under natural tripping or open tripping condition was extremely high (22.38) as compared to completely caged (0.52) which clearly indicates the significance of pollinators/tripping agencies in seed yield of berseem crop. Further, the influence of pollinators was well marked with diploid strains of berseem as compared to tetraploid because of difference in fertility levels (tetraploids are generally less fertile). 相似文献

To examine the possibility of managing manganese (Mn) deficiency through mixed cropping, berseem was grown as a monoculture and in mixed cropping with oats, ryegrass, or raya in a Mn-deficient soil under screen-house conditions. In no-Mn berseem monoculture treatment, shoot dry weight (SDW) and root length (RL) were, respectively, 33% and 45% of the maximum recorded values obtained with berseem grown in mixed cropping with ryegrass at 60 days of growth. Corresponding values of SDW and RL of berseem when grown with raya were 78% and 76% of the maximum, respectively. Even though berseem grown in mixed cropping with ryegrass and raya had smaller RL/SDW ratio and greater shoot growth rate than berseem grown as monoculture, it acquired a high shoot Mn concentration because of 3.8 times more Mn influx. A high Mn influx was the result of a high concentration gradient that developed because of depletion of Mn at the root surface. 相似文献

Berseem clover (Trifolium alexandrinum L.) is an annual forage crop widely grown in Mediterranean environments. However, there is little information available on the patterns of accumulation and partitioning of assimilate in berseem and how this varies with harvest management, plant ontogeny or is influenced by genotype. Field experiments were conducted in Foggia (Italy) during three growing seasons (1991–92, 1992–93 and 1993–94), with the aim of evaluating the effects of different harvest managements on growth dynamics, forage yield and seed yield of one population of Egyptian (cv. ‘Giza 10’) as well as Italian (cv. ‘Sacromonte’) origin. Cutting treatments were applied at three different plant ages: sixth internode elongation (A), early flowering (B), and uncut control (C). The growth and development of the shoot and root systems were followed by destructive harvests made at about 5-day intervals during 9 weeks in spring in all treatments. Seasonal growth pattern, determined as dry matter accumulation, forage yield and seed production were greatly influenced by harvest management. The maximum value (20.5 g per plant on average) of dry weight was reached at about 250 days after sowing for treatment C. Defoliation induced a decrease of crown and root dry matter, however, as shown by the allometric relationships, the growth of roots and shoots was closely correlated and in most cases, shoot growth was higher than root growth and stem relative growth rate (RGR) was higher than leaf RGR. Berseem clover is a defoliation-tolerant species because after cutting, regrowth was accompanied by higher values of leaf-stem ratio (LSR), RGR and stem elongation rate (SER) than in control plants. The highest value for total forage yield (1.6 Kg m−2) and seed yield (60.5 g m−2) were obtained in treatment B and A, respectively. Plants cut at the sixth internode elongation showed a good seed yield and a small decrease (15%) in total forage yield as regards treatment B. Therefore, treatment A appeared the most favourable for obtaining double utilization (forage and seed yield) in a berseem crop. Berseem plants were greatly influenced by harvest treatments applied, but the response did not vary according to the genetic characteristics of the two cultivars examined. 相似文献

The critical limit of boron (B) in soils and plant (berseem, Trifolium alexandrinum) was determined through a pot culture experiment with 10 soils of Kashmir, representing 10 major districts of the valley falling under three altitudinal locations viz. low, medium and high. Hot water soluble (HWS) B in these soils was positively and significantly correlated with the dry matter yield of berseem, B concentration in plant tissues and B uptake. A positive significant correlation was also observed between pH and HWS B. The critical concentration of soil available B and plant tissues B was 0.48 ppm and 23.0 ppm for first cutting and 0.49 ppm and 19.0 ppm, respectively. Almost 50% of the soils studied were found to be deficient in B. 相似文献

The aim of this work was to obtain mukifoiiare types of berseem clover with a great proportion of the leaf weight and increased plant weight. Thereby research an berseem clover over a 10 year period resulted in the transfer of the multicare gene(s) from a mutant plant of the monocut Fahl culrivar which possess such trait to the muiticut trifoliate culrivar Meskawi by crossing between them. A multicut multifoliate strain was developed after rune generations of selection.
The multsfoliate strain gave significantly higher dry forage yield than commercial cultivate Giza 10, Sakha 4, Giza 15, Helaly and Giza 6 by 22.1, 22.5, 24,8, 29.9 and 36.7%, respectively, in the first cut. On the other hand, the moltifoliate strain gave higher seasonal protein yield than cultivars, i.e. Helaly, Giza 10, and Giza 6 by 7.0,10.1, and 121 %, respectively.
The leaves/stems rario trait averaged over cuts was 18.3 % higher than for the five commercial trifoliate cultivars. Therefore, this multifoliate muiricut strain could be useful for forage especially before sowing cotton or other early summer crops. In addition to that, it could he used as a genetic marker for berseem breeders. 相似文献

The influence of cutting applied at four stages of plant growth on dry matter, crude protein, total available carbohydrates and reducing sugar partitioning was examined in six genotypes of berseem ( Trifolium alexandrinum L.). The research was conducted in Foggia (Italy) during 1990 and 1991 in a glasshouse with controlled water application. The plants were grown in a plastic-lined, PVC cylinder. At each cut, dry matter and chemical components were evaluated in leaf, stem and root fractions; at the end of the biological cycle, seed yield was recorded.
Plants showed similar dry matter partitioning between leaves and stems at the eighth internode stage. The crude protein concentration was highest in leaf fractions, reaching the maximum value (31%) at an early stage of growth (fourth internode stage). The maximum value of total available carbohydrates was obtained in the stems at the early flowering stage (11 %), whereas reducing sugars almost always showed higher concentrations in the leaves (4 %). As for forage and seed yields, the developmental stage at cutting had a great influence on dry matter and chemical component partitioning among the different organs. Genotypic differences were observed for dry matter partitioning in leaves and stems in all developmental stages, but diversity in chemical component content was more evident in the roots. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of increasing concentrations of salt solutions (including 0.12, 2, 6, and 10 dS m−1) on the growth of berseem clover (Trifolium alexandrinum L.) and related soil microbial activity, biomass and enzyme activities. Results showed that the dry weights of root and shoot decreased with an increase in the concentrations of salt solutions. Soil salinization depressed the microbiological activities including soil respiration and enzyme activities. Substrate-induced respiration was consistently lower in salinized soils, whereas microbial biomass C did not vary among salinity levels. Higher metabolic quotients (qCO2) and unaffected microbial biomass C at high EC values may indicate that salinity is a stressful factor, inducing either a shift in the microbial community with less catabolic activity or reduced efficiency of substrate utilization. Acid phosphatase and alkaline phosphatase activities decreased with increasing soil salinity. We found significant, positive correlations between the activities of phosphatase enzymes and plant's root mass, suggesting that any decrease in the activities of the two enzymes could be attributed to the reduced root biomass under saline conditions. 相似文献

The origin and ancestry for Egyptian clover, Trifolium alexandrinum, was examined using AFLP data. The data support a close relationship of T. alexandrinum accessions from Syria and Egypt to T. apertum, T. berytheum, and T. salmoneum. However, crossability and geographic distributions suggest that T. apertum is an unlikely progenitor. In contrast, T. salmoneum appears to be the most probable progenitor for Syrian material of Egyptian clover, although a close relationship to T. berytheum was also revealed. The ability of these species to cross freely indicates that T. salmoneum and T. berytheum may be regarded as the primary ancestors from, which man domesticated Egyptian clover through artificial selection in Syria.
Following domestication, the earlier forms of the crop species could have been taken into rain-fed cultivation in Palestine
and irrigated cultivation in Egypt. In this regard, the domestication of Egyptian clover may be analogous to other crops,
such as barley and wheat, which were also domesticated in the Fertile Crescent and taken into cultivation in the Nile Valley.
It appears that genetic improvement of the crop occurred in Egypt after cultivation, and that the varieties that were developed
in Egypt were later distributed worldwide. 相似文献
