Abstract

Water and fertilizer application strategies seriously affect the healthy growth of peanuts. The stoichiometric ratio can directly reflect the elemental requirements for crop growth, which are very important for improving fertilizer utilization efficiency. In order to investigate the response of C (carbon), N (nitrogen), and P (phosphorus) allocation pattern and stoichiometric characteristics in peanut seedlings to water and nitrogen addition, we designed a greenhouse pot experiment which had different water treatments (W1, 75–80% field capacity; W2, 45–50% field capacity) and nitrogen addition treatments (N0, 0 kg hm−2; N1, 90 kg hm−2; N2, 180 kg hm−2). The distribution and content changes in C, N, and P in different organs were measured and analyzed by ecological stoichiometry. The results showed that drought stress significantly increased the N or P content of different organs. The average N/P value of peanut roots treated with W2 decreased by 13.02% compared to W1. Restoring irrigation relieved this stress while reducing the C/N and C/P of roots, stems, and leaves, as well as the N/P of roots and stems. The water treatment after rehydration showed significant differences in the C/N, C/P, and N/P ratios of peanut roots. The average values of the C/N, C/P, and N/P ratios of peanut roots in W2 treatment were reduced by 13.54%, 28.66%, and 16.34%, respectively, compared to W1 treatment. On the other hand, nitrogen application significantly increased the N content of stems and leaves, while reducing C/N. On the contrary, it significantly reduced the P content of roots and stems, and increased the N/P ratio of roots, stems, and leaves. Overall, there is a significant interaction between water and nitrogen treatment on the stoichiometric characteristics of C, N, and P in different organs, with water treatment playing a dominant role. In terms of nutrient distribution in organs, the average N content in leaves is the highest. The coefficient of variation (CV) of P content is greater than that of C and N content. The CV of N content, P content, and C/N and N/P ratios of the stem are all greater than those of the roots or leaves, while the stems are more sensitive to water and nitrogen conditions. And the N and P content of roots, stems, and leaves were positively correlated. Meanwhile, peanut seedlings have the phenomenon of ionic synergism that occurs between nitrogen and phosphorus ions. In summary, studying the stoichiometric ratios can reflect the water and fertilizer demand status of peanuts, thereby better improving water and fertilizer utilization efficiency.
