5.1 Mineral Nutrition and Plant Growth

5.1.1 Yield Response Curves (生长效应曲线)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

51 养分供应与植物生长的关系

 

Law of diminishing yield increment (产量增长递减律) (Mitscherlich 1954)

52 氮、磷和微量元素的产量效应曲线

 

5.1.2 Factors affecting response curves  

5.1.2.1 Nutrient balance status

The effect of interaction among nutrients on yield.

Yield response curves differ between grain and straw!!

 

5.1.2.2 Demand of Yield and Quality

YRC can differ not only between vegetative and reproductive organs, but in quality.

 

5.2 Sink-Source relationship  and Yield  ()

 

5.3 Effect of Mineral Nutrition on Sink-Source relationship  ()

 

5.4 Mineral Nutrition and Plant Quality

The quality of plant products is not so easily defined and measured as yield. Quality standards depend very much on the purpose for which a plant is used.

The major factors controlling crop quality are fixed genetically.

Exogenous factors can considerably effects are dependent on the influence of particular nutrients on biochemical or physiological processes.  

5.4.1 Root crops

Potato: starch, esterification (脂化作用)

Sugar beet: sugar, soluble amino acid, K+, Na+. 

 

 

Table 51   Effect of potassium sulphate and potassium chloride on the yield

and starch content of potato tubers

 

Treatment      Tuber yield (Tonnes/ha)        Starch (%)

 

───────────────────────────────

KCl                  2.81                  13.3  

             K2SO4                 2.82                  14.6

         ½ KCl + ½ K2SO4               2.86                  13.4

 

 

KCl gives lower starch content than K2SO4 .

 

5.4.2 Grain Crops

Starch,

protein,

gluten (面筋),

amino acid

5.4.4 Vegetables and Fruits

Nitrate, Vitamin, K, P and other mineral elements, fruit size, colour, shape, flavour and taste.
