چکیده

بور یکی از هفت عنصر ضروری کم ‎مصرف برای رشد طبیعی گیاهان است. سمیت این عنصر در مناطق خشک و نیمه‎خشک، به دلیل مقادیر بالای آن در خاک و آب آبیاری متداول است. این پژوهش با هدف بررسی تأثیر کاربرد نیتروژن بر کاهش سمیت بور در نهال‎های پسته رقم بادامی زرندی انجام شد. اثرات سه سطح نیتروژن (0، 250 و 350 میلی‎گرم در کیلوگرم خاک از منبع اوره ) بر کاهش سمیت حاصل از سه سطح بور (0، 15، 30 میلی گرم در کیلوگرم خاک از منبع اسید بوریک(، در پسته رقم بادامی زرندی تحت شرایط گلخانه‎ای بررسی شد. پس از هفت ماه از کاشت بذرها، نهال‎های پسته برداشت و صفات مورد نظر اندازه گیری شد. نتایج نشان داد که با افزایش سطوح کاربردی بور، غلظت بور در اندام هوایی و ریشه نهال‎ها افزایش و وزن خشک آنها کاهش یافت. اما، استفاده از نیتروژن، تأثیر سوء بور بر وزن خشک را کاهش داد و منجر به افزایش وزن خشک و کاهش غلظت بور در اندام هوایی و ریشه نهال ها شد. کاربرد سطوح 250 و 350 میلی گرم نیتروژن در کیلوگرم خاک با تقویت سیستم رویشی گیاه و افزایش سبزینگی، جذب بور در اندام هوایی را به ترتیب 5/13 و 2/30 درصد کاهش داد و منجر به رقیق تر شدن غلظت بور در گیاه شد (اثر رقت) و اثرات حاصل از سمیت بور را کاهش داد. از این رو کاربرد بهینه نیتروژن به عنوان یکی از روش‎های مدیریت، در کنترل سمیت بور در این شرایط توصیه می‎شود.

چکیده [English]

Introduction: Boron is one of the seven essential microelements for the natural growth of plants. The toxicity of this element occurs in arid and semi-arid regions, which is because of its high level in soils and the irrigation water of mentioned regions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of nitrogen application on boron toxicity tolerance in pistachio, Badami-Zarand variety. The effects of three nitrogen levels (0, 250, and 350 mg/kg of soil) on the reduction of toxicity due to the three levels of boron (0, 15, and 30 mg/kg of soil) were examined in Badami-Zarandi variety of pistachio under greenhouse conditions. After 7 months from sowing the seeds, pistachio seedlings were harvested and desired traits were measured. The results showed that by increasing boron application level, boron concentration in the shoot and root of seedlings increased whereas their dry weight decreased. Using of nitrogen reduced the negative effects of boron on the dry weight and led to increase dry weight and decrease boron concentration in the shoot and root of pistachio, Badami variety. Nitrogen application at the levels of 250 and 350 mg N per kg of soil reduced boron uptake in shoots by reinforcing plant vegetative system and increasing chlorophyll content by 13.5% and 30.2%, respectively and finally led to diluted boron concentration in the plant (dilution effect) and reduced the effects of boron toxicity. Hence, optimized nitrogen application is suggested as one of the management methods in controlling Boron toxicity under these conditions.
Materials and Methods: A factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with four replications was carried out. Soil sampling was done in 0-30 cm depth in a zeekzack way from a pistachio garden that located in mahmoodiye area in Rafsanjan. The soil sample was air-dried and passed through a 2mm sieve. The soil chemical and physical properties were measured. In this study, badami-zarand cultivar seed was used because it is one of the most important pistachio cultivars. The seeds were soaked in water for 24 hours and disinfected by benomyl fungicide. When the seeds germinated, they were planted in the pots containing 4.5 kg soil and without drainage, so nutrients balance was kept during growing period. After 7 months, the seedlings were harvested and B was measured.
Results and Discussion: The results showed that increasing the boron levels from 0 to 30 mg kg-1 led to decrease shoot dry weight from 3.72 to 2.45 gram and root DM from 2.28 to 1.50 gram. Increasing 30 mg kg-1 boron led to 2.8 times increase of shoot boron concentration. The averages of shoot boron concentration in the levels of 15 and 30 mg kg-1 boron were 87.6 and 122 mg kg-1DM, respectively. The boron toxicity level in Badami-Zarand cultivar is 8.9 mg kg-1 DM (Sepaskhahet al, 1994), so these levels were the cause of boron toxicity and boron toxicity symptoms were seen as leaf burn, often at the margins and the tips of older leaves.
The results showed that increasing nitrogen levels led to decrease shoot boron concentration and increase their weight. The results also showed a significant negative correlation between the nitrogen levels and boron uptake. Boron uptake in the shoots of seedlings about 13.5 and 30.2 percent decreased when nitrogen levels increased. Shoot dry weight decreased when boron application increased, but it increased when nitrogen was used (Koohkan and Maftoun, 2009).
Conclusion: The reduction of dry weight and increasing boron concentration occurred when increased boron application. The Maximum of boron uptake was seen by leaves, and boron toxicity symptoms were appeared as leaf burn especially at the tips and margins of older leaves. Since, boron is immobile in pistachio; it is absorbed by mass flow, so the accumulation of boron at older leaves is persuaded. Nitrogen reduced the bad effects of boron on dry weight and the bad effects of increasing boron concentration by the synthesis of chlorophyll, so it was more useful in shoot than root. Boron uptake was also reduced by nitrogen application. This effect of nitrogen is probably concerned to the increase of dry weight more than boron concentration (Dilution effect). On the other hand, nitrogen caused to increase leaf index and increase the number of seedling leaves. The injured leaves due to boron toxicity were restored, because of high leaf chlorophyll. It is suggested that this study will be done under field conditions for fertilizer application recommendations and to be used for creation of tolerant cultivars of pistachio.
