Abstract

The research studied the effects of different amounts of nitrogen and potassium on the yield and quality of Muskmelon in the condition of rich phosphorus.The results indicated that when applying abundant nitrogen in the condition of rich phosphorus,the blossom of first female flower and fruit maturation was delayed.The content of yield,single fruit weight,Vc and protein were increased when the amount of nitrogen supply was below 393.8 kg/ha.The content of total sugar was declined while the amount of nitrate was increased significantly when the amount of nitrogen supply was over 330.1 kg/ha.The blossom of first female flower and fruit maturation were shorted when improving the amount of potassium supply.Single fruit weight and yield were increased while the content of nitrate was decreased when the amount of potassium was below 634.9kg/ha.The content of protein was increased when the amount of potassium supply was increased at the condition that the amount of nitrogen supply below 393.8 kg/ha.Comprehensive analysis on quality and quantity,when the amount of nitrogen and potassium supply at 393.8 kg/ha and 611.9 kg/ha separately,we obtain the climax expectation.The yield can reach 45663.5 kg/ha,Total sugar content was up to 17.8%,Vc obtain the maximum content,35.94 mg/100g,Protein content was up to 606.36 mg/100g respectively,and the content of nitrate was lower than 600 mg/100g.
