Abstract

Three different genotypes of flue-cured tobacco including one potassium-enriched cultivar 'Nongda 202' and two common cultivars,'NC89' and 'Jingyehuang',were used to investigate the differences of root morphology and physiology in solution culture under low K and normal K supply condition.The results indicated that:comparing with low K supply condition,the indices of root morphology and physiology including root fresh weight,root volume,root dry weight,root vigor and total vigor,total uptake area,active uptake area,H+ excretion,CEC,soluble protein content and ATPase activity increased significantly under normal K supply condition except specific surface area,and the varying range of 'Nongda 202' was bigger than the other cultivars.The root morphology was good and root physiology were vigorous under normal K supply condition were remarkable characteristics of 'Nongda 202'.Its morphological and physiological characteristics ensured the efficient absorption and utilization of potassium.Whereas,the morphological and physiological characteristics were suppressed under low K condition,its tolerance to low potassium was weaker.In conclusion,there are obvious differences between flue-cured tobacco genotypes in root morphological and physiological characteristics,and their reaction to potassium supply condition.As potassium level increasing,the root morphological and physiological characteristics are significantly improved,thereby enhancing its potassium absorption and trans-shipment capacity.
