Influence of foliar-applied phosphorus and potassium on photosynthesis and transpiration of ‘Golden Delicious’ apple leaves (Malus domestica Borkh.) | Vpliv foliarno nanešenega fosforja in kalija na fotosintezo in transpiracijo listov jablane (Malus domestica Borkh.) ‘Zlati delišes’)

英语. The influence of foliar-applied phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) on leaf photosynthesis, transpiration and water use efficiency during the season was studied in Malus domestica ‘Golden Delicious’. The research was carried out on 14-year-old trees on M9 rootstocks. Trees were either sprayed with PK (Hascon M 10 AD), P (Radicon) or K fertiliser (Krad) or left unsprayed (control). PK spraying improved leaf potassium content and postponed the seasonal decrease in leaf potassium concentration. In other treatments, on the other hand, fertilizers were less effective in terms of leaf nutrient concentration enhancement. In general P, and to a lesser extent PK, spraying resulted in reduced leaf photosynthesis and transpiration to the K and control treatments. High leaf photosynthetic and transpiration rates were measured in the control. Trees sprayed with PK showed the highest water use efficiency during the summer period, which could be a benefit in response to water stress, frequently experienced under given climate.

斯洛文尼亚语.  Proučevali smo vpliv foliarno dodanega fosforja (P) in kalija (K) na fotosintezo, transpiracijo in učinkovitost izrabe vode listov jablane (Malus domestica Borkh.) ‘Zlati delišes’. Poskus je bil zasnovan na 14 let starih drevesih cepljenih na podlago M9. Drevesa smo poškropili s PK (Hascon M 10 AD), P (Radicon), K gnojilom (Krad) in jih primerjali z neškropljenimi drevesi (kontrola). Škropljenje s PK je vplivalo predvsem na večjo vsebnost kalija v listih ter zmanjšalo sezonski padec v vsebnosti tega elementa. Druga obravnavanja so se izkazala kot manj učinkovita z vidika povečanja vsebnosti elementov v listih. V primerjavi s K škropljenimi drevesi in kontrolnimi drevesi, je škropljenje s P in nekoliko manj s PK zmanjšalo fotosintezo in transpiracijo listov. Drevesa škropljena s PK so kazala v poletnem času največjo vrednost parametra učinkovitosti izrabe vode, kar bi lahko bilo pomembno z vidika zmanjševanja sušnega stresa, s katerim se pogosto srečamo v naših krajih v tem obdobju.
