RESUMO

Nitrogen (N) and potassium (K) are essential nutrients for Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum L.) growth. A 2-year field experiment with a split-plot design was conducted to study the effect of N fertilizer type combined with different K fertilizer rates on the soil mineral N and K availability, and growth characteristics of Italian ryegrass. The main plots were assigned to two N fertilizer types, controlled-release urea (CRU) and common urea. While low, moderate and high potassium chloride (KCl) rates (150, 300 and 450 kg ha-1, respectively) were assigned to the subplots. Compared with the common urea treatments, the CRU significantly increased the SPAD value, plant height, leaf area, and photosynthetic index of Italian ryegrass, which significantly prolonged the green stage of Italian ryegrass and prevented premature senescence. Moreover, the dry yields of the CRU increased by 4.5-12.5% in 2019 and 10.9-25.3% in 2020 compared with the urea, respectively. At the same time, compared with the KCl150 and KCl450 treatments, the KCl300 treatment resulted in better plant growth. Overall, the CRU × KCl300 maximized the soil inorganic N and different soil K forms, and reduced the soil N/K leaching. The root length, volume, surface area, average diameter, tips and branches were also improved, and there was a significant N × K interaction effect on the tips. The CRU combined with 300 kg ha-1 KCl fertilization enhanced crop growth by improving leaf photosynthesis, soil fertility, and yield and should be recommended as the best fertilizer ratio for Italian ryegrass production.

RESUMO

Leersia japonica is a perennial Gramineae grass that is dominant in shallow wetlands of the Yihe and Shuhe River Basin, North China. Previous studies have shown that L. japonica recovers early (March), tillers strongly, and has an excellent ability to purify sewage in spring. This early revival might play a vital role in water purification function; however, whether the plant benefits from the physiological activities during senescence remains unclear. Therefore, in this study, an experiment was conducted during the winter of 2016 and in the following spring. Morphology (height, biomass, root morphology), physiology (root vitality, malondialdehyde [MDA], superoxide dismutase [SOD]), substance contents (soluble sugar, soluble protein) and substance transportation (activity of enzymes for transportation and energy supply) were determined during weeks 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 of the senescence stage (October 11, 2016); as well as substance contents and bud increments during days 0,7, 14, 21, 31 and 41 of the revival period (February 22, 2017). The results revealed that (1) the root biomass of L. japonica increased significantly during senescence, even after the leaves withered. (2) The root diameter of L. japonica decreased significantly, while root weight per volume and root superficial area per volume increased significantly during senescence. The root vitality was relatively stable in winter, especially for root absorption area per volume. (3) No significant difference was observed in membrane stability of stems, rhizomes and roots of L. japonica in winter, with the MDA content remaining stable and SOD activity increasing significantly during senescence. (4) The soluble sugar content of all tissues of L. japonica increased sharply during senescence; while it decreased significantly in spring, especially for buds. (5) The enzymes for substance metabolism responded differently, with activities of H+-ATPase and pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC) decreasing, and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) increasing. Therefore, L. japonica has active morphological adaptation of roots, physiological regulation, and massive substance accumulation during senescence stage. The special life-history trait ensures L. japonica survival in winter and revival in early spring, which makes it being an excellent plant for purifying sewage in spring.

RESUMO

Potassium and fulvic acid (FA) fertilizer applications are two important measures for improving cotton growth. However, there are few studies on the application interactive effects of controlled-release potassium chloride (CRK) in combination with FA on cotton production. To explore the effects of CRK combined with FA on cotton, field experiments were conducted in 2018 and 2019 using a split-plot design. The main plots were assigned to two types of potassium fertilizer - controlled-release potassium chloride (CRK) and potassium sulfate (KS) - while low, moderate, and high FA application rates (90, 180, and 270 kg ha-1) were assigned to the subplots. The cotton yield, fiber quality, net profit, soil available potassium concentration, potassium use efficiency, and leaf photosynthesis were markedly affected by potassium fertilizer and FA. The cotton boll number and boll weight in the 2 years and the yield in 2019 were all affected by the interaction between potassium fertilizer and FA. Compared to the other potassium treatments, the CRK × FA180 treatment increased the seed yield and net profit by 4.29-14.92% and 13.72-62.30%, respectively, over the 2 years. The potassium agronomy efficiency and potassium recovery efficiency (KRE) of the CRK × FA180 treatment were also improved by 6.25-30.77% and 3.82-12.78% compared to those of the other potassium treatments. Overall, the FA180 treatment resulted in better cotton growth than that in the FA90 and FA270 treatments. The release period of CRK in the field during the growth period of cotton was longer than that detected by 25°C static water extraction, which increased the soil available potassium content and met the potassium demands over the whole cotton growth period. Therefore, the application of CRK in combination with 180 kg ha-1 FA is the best choice for cotton fertilization.

RESUMO

A split-plot field experiment was conducted in 2018-2019 to study the effects of nitrogen fertilizer types and fulvic acid (FA) rates on soil nitrogen and cotton growth. The nitrogen fertilizers included controlled-release urea (CRU) and urea, which were applied combined with three FA rates (90, 180 and 270 kg ha-1). The main plot was the nitrogen fertilizer type, and the subplot was the FA rate. The results showed that the lint yield of the FA180 treatment was 5.2-8.6% higher than the FA90 and FA270 treatments. Moreover, moderate FA application markedly improved the cotton leaf SPAD value (chlorophyll relative value), photosynthesis and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters compared with low and high FA rates. Replacing urea with CRU significantly increased the soil inorganic nitrogen and nitrogen use efficiency and also improved cotton fiber quality parameters. Meanwhile, the boll weight and seed yield of the CRU treatments were 1.5-8.4% and 3.3-19.1% higher, respectively, than the urea treatments. The interaction between nitrogen type and FA rate had a positive effect on cotton growth. Thus, the application of CRU combined with 180 kg ha-1 FA on cotton can not only improve the fiber quality and delay leaf senescence but also increase the yield and economic benefit.

RESUMO

Secondary pollution resulting from shoot death is a difficult problem that complicated the application of wetland plants for water purification in northern wetlands. Phalaris arundinacea, a perennial herb with an obviously declining stage, or senescence, is a species that is often selected for water purification in Northern China; however, whether it reduces the secondary pollution risk via nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) accumulation during senescence or not remains unclear. To investigate this question, an experiment was conducted with containerized plants during the winter of 2016, after roughly half the leaves on the plants had withered. The experimental observations and analyses were conducted within 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks of the initiation of senescence. Results revealed that leaves continued to wither and shoot death occurred during weeks 4 to 6 and 8 to 10, respectively. However, no significant differences occurred in fresh biomass or in N and P accumulations of a single plant during senescence. The root biomass, root weight per volume, and total N content increased significantly, while total P content remained stable when leaves withered, respectively. H+-ATPase, a key enzyme for ion transportation, decreased after the leaves withered. However, root activity, evaluated by absorption surface per root volume, remained stable, and percentage of fine root length (diameter < 1 mm) increased significantly during senescence. In conclusion, the root activity and morphology enables P. arundinacea to accumulate N and P during senescence, which makes it a good choice for water purification in northern wetlands.

RESUMO

One-year old seedlings of Salix variegata (submergence-tolerant) and Cinnamomum camphora (submergence-intolerant) were selected and subjected to complete submergence (2 m) for 1, 5, 10, and 20 days, to elucidate the submergence- tolerance mechanism of S. variegata in the Three Gorges reservoir region. The basal CO2 emission ratios (BCERs) and O2 consumption rates (OCRs) of leaf, stem, and root were determined. The basal O2 consumption rates (BOCRs) were calculated from the OCRs of different parts and their biomass allocations and used for evaluating the basal metabolic rate (BMR) of species with BCERs. The results showed that: (1) The BCERs of both species responded to flooding similarly, and no significant differences occurred between the submerged S. variegata (SS) and the submerged C. camphora (SC) seedlings, and between the control S. variegata (CS) and the control C. camphora (CC) seedlings. (2) The BOCRs of SS were significantly lower than those of SC on days 1 and 20, while no significant differences occurred between CS and CC for every duration. Therefore, the BMRs, evaluated from BOCRs rather than from BCERs, were related to submergence-tolerance of species, and the response of BMR to submergence would contribute to the survival of S. variegata seedlings under flooding.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The Three Gorges project has caused many ecosystem problems. Ecological restoration using readily-available plants is an effective way of mitigating environmental impacts. Two perennial submergence-tolerant ecotypes of Calamagrostis arundinacea were planted in an experimental field in the drawdown zone. Responses of the two plant ecotypes to flooding stress in the drawdown zone were unknown. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Carbohydrate content and membrane stability, two key factors for survival of plants under flooding stress, of two ecotypes (designated "dwarf" and "green") of C. arundinacea growing at different elevations of the drawdown zone were investigated. Live stems (LS) and dead stems (DS) of the two plant ecotypes at eight elevations (175, 170, 162, 160, 158, 155, 152 m and 149 m) were sampled. Contents of soluble sugar, starch and malondialdehyde (MDA), as well as plasma membrane permeability of live stems were measured. The lowest elevations for survival of dwarf and green C. arundinacea were 160 m and 158 m, respectively. Soluble sugar content of live stems of both ecotypes decreased with elevation, with amounts from an elevation of 170 m being lower than from an elevation of 175 m. MDA content and plasma membrane permeability in live stems of green C. arundinacea did not increase with the decrease in elevation, while these measures in dwarf C. arundinacea from an elevation of 162 m were significantly higher than from an elevation of 175 m. CONCLUSIONS: Carbohydrate content, especially soluble sugar content, in both ecotypes was more sensitive to flooding stress than membrane stability. Green C. arundinacea had a higher tolerance to submergence than dwarf C. arundinacea, and thus green C. arundinacea can be planted at lower elevations than dwarf C. arundinacea.
