چکیده
زیستبوم جنگلهای بلوط زاگرس، از گستردهترین اکوسیستمهای جنگلی در حال تخریب در ایران است که از نظر حفاظت آب و خاک و مسائل اقتصادی و اجتماعی اهمیت بالایی دارد. تنشهای رطوبتی در سالهای اخیر موجب رو به زوال رفتن این جنگلها در گستره وسیعی شدهاست. مقدار و شکل عنصر پتاسیم در خاک با توجه به نقشی که این عنصر در مقاومت گیاه به تنش رطوبتی دارد، اهمیت زیادی دارد. این پژوهش به منظور بررسی وضعیت کلی پتاسیم در خاک و درختان بلوط در 10 منطقه جنگلی در استان کهگیلویه و بویراحمد و معرفی عصارهگیرهای مناسب برای استخراج پتاسیم صورت گرفت. عصارهگیرهای مورد استفاده شامل کلرید سدیم 1 و 2 مولار، کلرید کلسیم 01/0 مولار، مورگان، بیکربنات آمونیم-DTPA، استات آمونیم 1 و 25/0 مولار، استات سدیم 1 مولار، استات منیزیم 1 مولار، اسید نیتریک 1/0 مولار، اسید کلریدریک 2 مولار و اسید سولفوریک 025/0 مولار بودهاند. میانگین پتاسیم محلول، تبادلی، غیرتبادلی، ساختمانی و کل به ترتیب 4/15، 247، 515، 4026 و 4493 میلیگرم در کیلوگرم خاک بوده است. پتاسیم استخراج شده توسط عصارهگیرهای DTPA، استات آمونیوم 25/0 مولار و کلرید سدیم 1 مولار، بیشترین همبستگی را با پتاسیم برگ بلوط نشان دادند. مقدار پتاسیم موجود در برگ بلوط (در دامنه 65/0 تا 18/1 درصد) همبستگی معنیداری با پتاسیم تبادلی خاک نشان داد. نتایج نشان داد که میزان پتاسیم در نیمی از نمونههای گیاه کمتر از حد بحرانی بودهاست. در نهایت، عصارهگیرهای کلریدسدیم 1 مولار و استات-آمونیوم 25/0 مولار، به دلیل همبستگی بیشتر، سادگی روش و اقتصادیبودن جهت استخراج پتاسیم پیشنهاد میگردند.

چکیده [English]
Introduction
Zagros oak forest ecosystem is one of the largest forest ecosystems under destruction in Iran, which is of great importance in terms of water and soil protection. Moisture stress in recent years has caused the deterioration of these forests in a wide area. Iranian oak (Quercus brantii Lindlb.) is the main tree species forming these forests. Potassium (K) is considered to be the most important nutrient cation in terms of its quantity in plant tissue and its physiological and biochemical functions. Soil tests measure the quantity of a nutrient element that is extracted from soil by a particular extracting solution. Over the years, many different soil testing methods and extracting solutions were evaluated to identify a technique that provides the most reliable prediction of crop yield response to nutrient application. It was determined that some soil testing procedures are best suited for particular soil types and climatic regions. There has been no research on the general status of K in the soil of Zagros forests, related to oak trees. It is important to introduce appropriate K extractants for extracting available K in these soils. Therefore, this research was carried out to achieve the mentioned goals in some forest areas of this Province.
Materials and Methods
Ten forest areas with dominant coverage of oak trees were selected in different parts of Kohgiluyeh and Boyerahmad Province. The physiochemical properties of the soil samples were determined based on standard methods. Soil pH, texture, electrical conductivity, calcium carbonate equivalent (CCE), organic carbon, and cation exchange capacity (CEC) were identified. The content of K present in different forms was determined by standard methods. Solution K was measured in the saturated extract. Exchangeable K was determined by extraction of 5 g soil sample with 20 mL 1 M NH4OAc (pH 7) for 5 min. Nitric acid-extractable K was measured by extraction of 2.5 g soil sample with 30 mL of boiling 1.0 M HNO3 for 1 h. Non-exchangeable K was calculated as the difference between HNO3-extractable K and NH4OAc-extracteable K. Total K was determined following digestion of 0.5 g soil sample with 10 mL of 48% HF and 1 mL of aqua regia. The 12 extracting solutions were 1M NaCl, 2M NaCl, 0.01M CaCl2, Morgan, AB-DTPA, 1M NH4OAC, 0.25M NH4OAC, 1M MgOAC, 1M NaOAC, 2M HCl, 0.1M HNO3, and 0.025M H2SO4. The K content of leaf samples was determined in 1g of each sample. The samples were dried and then ashed in 450°C for 4 h. 2M HCl was used to digest the samples. Potassium was measured on all filtrated extracts using a Corning 405 flame photometer.
Results and Discussion
The soils are all calcareous (average of 42.9 and 44.7% CCE in surface and subsurface, respectively), with pH in range of 7.0-7.8. The textural classes were sandy clay loam, clay loam, and clay. The range of soluble potassium is between 4.8 to 32.7 with an average of 15.4 mgkg-1, exchangeable potassium from 65.1 to 364 (with an average of 247 mgkg-1, non-exchangeable potassium from 106 to 876 with an average of 515 mgkg-1, structural potassium was from 761 to 7322 with an average of 4026 mgkg-1and total potassium was from 1051 to 8110 with an average of 4493 mgkg-1. Soluble, exchangeable, non-exchangeable, and structural potassium were 0.49, 9.6, 12.1, and 77.8%, of the total K, respectively. Among the 12 tested methods, 1.0 mol/L NH4OAC extracted the highest amount of K (mean 229.3 mgkg-1, ranging 64.9-384.2 mgkg-1) and 1.0 mol/L MgOAC removed the lowest amount of K (mean 53.0 mgkg-1, ranged 19.1-88.0 mgkg-1). Correlation coefficients between K extracted by 12 extractants were positive and significant. Maximum correlation between K leaf and extracted soil K was noticed in AB-DTPA, 0.25M NH4OAC, 1M NaCl, and Morgan-Wolfe (r=0.60, 0.59, 0.56, and 0.55, respectively) and the minimum correlation was noticed in 2M HCl and 0.025 M H2SO4 (r= 0.41 and 0.44, respectively). The amount of potassium in oak leaves (in the range of 0.65% to 1.18%) showed a significant correlation with exchangeable potassium in the soil. The amount of potassium in 50% of the oak leaf samples was less than the critical limit (1%). As a general result, 1M NaCl and 0.25M NH4OAC extractants are recommended for extracting potassium, due to greater correlation, simplicity of the method, and economic considerations.
Conclusion
The results of this research showed that the range of the values of different forms of potassium in different parts of the province had a relatively large difference (6 and 8 times difference in exchangeable and non-exchangeable potassium values). The amounts of available forms of potassium in the western regions of the province with less rainfall were in most cases higher than the more humid eastern regions. The average amount of exchangeable potassium in 60% of the studied areas was less than the critical limit of 250 mgkg-1 soil. Also, the average amount of leaf K in 50 percent of the samples was less than the critical level. Considering the great importance of potassium in the nutrition of oak trees and dealing with environmental stress, especially the shortage of soil moisture, it is recommended to pay more attention to the conditions of this element in the soil of the forest areas of the province. Also, fertilizing and foliar spraying of trees in some forest areas should be considered.
