Abstract

To determine the optimum N rate m Jeju island for utricle and root production of Achyranthes japonica Nakai, a medicinal plant, the plants were grown at two plant densities $(50\;and\;100\;hills/m^2$, two plants per hill; mall plots) at six N application rates (0, 6, 12, 18, 24, and 30 kg/10a; split plots) in 2001. There was no significant interaction between plant density and N application rate for all measured agronomic characters. Main root length and roots per hill were 5 and 52% greater, respectively, but N content of stover was lower under lower plant density compared to higher plant density. The other characters were not affected by plant density. N application rate did not significantly affect mall stem diameter, spikes per hill, spike length, utricles per spike, mall root length and diameter, and utricle N content. As N rate increased from 0 to 30 kg/10a, SPAD values and stover N content increased linearly from 35.0 to 40.5 and 1.09 to 1.38%, respectively, and plant height, branches per hill, stover, utricle and root dry matter yields, roots per hill, and top N yield increased quadratically. Spikes per hill were increased in a cubic manner with increased N application rates. N application rate for the maximum dry matter yield of utricle and root in A. japonica was estimated to be 21 kg N/10a.

제주도에서 쇠무릎의 뿌리와 포과의 생산을 위한 적정질소시비량을 구명하고자 재식밀도(50, 100주/$m^2$, 1주 2본)와 질소시비량(0, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30 kg/10a)에 따른 생육, 건물수량, 지상부 질소 함량 및 수량 등을 조사하였던 바 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 조사한 모든 형질에 대하여 재식밀도와 질소시비량 간에는 상호작용이 없었다. 100주/$m^2$ 재식구에 비하여 50주/$m^2$ 재식구에서 주근장 및 뿌리수는 각각 5%와 52%증가되었고 경엽의 질소함량은 다소 낮았으나 다른 형질에서는 차이가 없었다. 질소시비량은 주경직경, 주당 화서수, 화서당 포과수, 주근장, 주근직경, 포과 질소함량에 영향을 미치지 않았다. 질소시비량이 10a당 0 kg에서 30kg으로 증가함에 따라 SPAD 값은 35.0에서 40.5로, 경엽의 질소함량은 1.09%에서 1.38%로 직선적으로 증가되었다. 질소시비량은 초장, 주당 분지수, 포과 뿌리 건물수량, 주당 근수, 경엽질소수량에 대해서는 2차함수식으로, 주당 화서수에 대해서는 3차함수적인 관계로 분석되었다. 이러한 분석결과 포과 및 뿌리 건물수량이 최대가 되는 질소시비량은 21kg/10a로 추정되었다.
