Abstract
It is well known that salinity levels are seldom uniform in saline fields.A new split-root system established through grafting was conducted to study the effects of nitrogen forms(NH+4 and NO-3) on nutrient elements uptake and plant growth under unequal salt distribution in a greenhouse.The results indicated that a significant interaction was detected between unequal salt distribution and nitrogen forms(NH+4 and NO-3) on nutrient uptake and seedlings growth.Compared with equal salt distribution,unequal salt distribution decreased Na+ concentration,and increased main nutrient elements(N,P,K,Ca,Mg,Fe,Mn,Cu,Zn) uptake,leaf photosynthesis(17.1%) and biomass accumulation(18.5%);the main nutrient elements(N,P,K,Mg,Fe,Mn) uptake and biomass in NO-3-N treatment were higher than that in NH+4-N treatment;Under unequal salt distribution,the main nutrient elements(N,P,K,Ca,Mg,Fe,Mn,Cu,Zn) uptake,leaf photosynthesis(13.5%) and biomass(7.2%) in NO-3-N were higher than that in NH+4-N treatment.It is concluded that NO-3-N is superior to NH+4-N in improvement of main nutrient elements uptake and plant growth under unequal salt distribution.
