Effects of Different Stubble Height Treatments on Characters of Growth and Photosynthetic Physiology of Caragana Microphylla Bushwood
[Objective] The effects of different stubble height on the growth and photosynthetic physiological characteristics of Caragana microphylla were studied
in order to provide theoretical basis for determing the most suitable stubble height of Caragana microphylla.[Methods] Taking the Caragana microphylla planted in 2003 as the research material
and setting six treatments of unflat stubble (CK)
stubble height 5 cm (T1)
10 cm (T2)
15 cm (T3)
20 cm (T4) and 25 cm (T5) in autumn
2018
the study measured the aboveground growth and photosynthetic physiological characteristics respectively in the next growing season.[Results] The different stubble height treatments listed in order of effect on the aboveground growth indicators and photosynthetic characteristics as follows:T3>T1>T2>T4>T5>CK. T3 treatment
compared with the CK treatment
exhibited the largest increases in plant height
crown length and width
and new branch among all treatments
with respective increases of up to 203.44%
278.10%
292.59%
385.43%. T5 treatment only increased by 25.15%
26.38%
25.93% and 88.48%
respectively. A certain stubble height treatment significantly increased the net photosynthesis (Pn)
transpiration rate (Tr) and water use efficiency (WUE) of Caragana microphylla. The diurnal changes of Caragana microphylla for all treatments showed photosynthesis and transpiration midday depression. The daily average value of Pn
Tr and WUE of T3 treatment increased by 2.52
0.37 and 1.52 times
respectively. The Pn and WUE of T5 treatment only increased by 0.45 and 0.32 times
while that of the Tr decreased by 0.02 times.[Conclusion] In the growth season of next year after coppicing
Caragana microphylla with 15 cm stubble height has strong growth compensation and photosynthetic capacity
followed by plants with 5
10 and 20 cm stubble
and plants with 25 cm stubble have the weakest growth compensation and photosynthetic capacity.
