Abstract

Erjiufeng(EJF),a potassium-susceptible variety,and Yuanfengzao(YFZ),a potassium-tolerant variety,were used to study the effects of potassium deficiency on the photosynthetic rate and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters in rice seedlings.The net photosynthetic rate(P_(n)) and stomatal conductance(G_(s)) of the two varieties decreased significantly in the potassium deficient rice leaves.The content of the key enzyme of photosynthesis(Rubisco) was declined,whereas,the activity of the key enzyme of antioxidant-system(SOD) was increased in the potassium deficient rice leaves.The further study by chlorophyll fluorescence measurement showed that under potassium deficiency F_(v)/F_(m),Ф_(PSⅡ),q_P and ETR were declined as time extended,indicating that the PSⅡ reaction center was damaged.Potassium deficiency also decreased the light-saturation points in both varieties.In that conditions,the light energy absorbed by PSⅡ was in excess of the need for assimilation,and a significant increase of NPQ in the stressed leaves of both varieties was detected,which indicated that the mechanism of thermal dissipation had been started to dissipate excessive light energy,and protected the plants from photoinhibition and photo-oxidation.Otherwise,it was also showed that YFZ was more tolerant to potassium deficiency compared with EJF,because YFZ could keep stronger photosynthetic ability with high resistance to(photoinhibition) under the potassium deficiency.Moreover,the photo-protection mechanism under potassium deficiency was also discussed.
