Abstract
The effects of different nitrogen forms on the growth and photosynthesis of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) were hydroponically studied. The results showed that plant height,leaf area and dry matter of sunflower with the fertilization of nitrate nitrogen were significantly higher than those with the dertilization of ammonium nitrogen and the plants fertilization with nitrate nitrogen presented a higher net photosynthetic rate,a lower stomatal conductancwe (Cs) and a lower concentration of carbon dioxide in intercellular space (Ci).The fertilizations of different nitrogen forms did not significantly differed in Fv/Fm but the plants fertilized with nitrate nitrogen presented a significantly higher quantum yield of ΦPSⅡ linear electron transport (ΦPSⅡ),a significantly higher photochemical quenching (qp) and a significantly higher qpparent electron transport rate (ETR) but a lower non-photochemical fluorescence quenching (qp) than the plants fertilized with ammonium nitrogen.Inhibited carbon assimilation was the important reason for lowered net photosynthetic rate.
