Abstract

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of potassium concentrations in fertigation solution on growth and development of nutrient deficiency symptoms of leaf perilla (Perilla frutesens). The nutrient concentrations in above ground plant tissue, petiole sap and soil solution of root media were also determined. Potassium deficiency symptoms developed in older leaves with marginal necrosis. The brown areas on the lower leaves enlarged rapidly and the margins became scorched. Elevation of K concentrations in the fertigation solution up to 8 mM increased the crop growth in leaf length, stem thickness, and fresh and dry matter production of above ground plant tissue. However, that decreased the chlorophyll contents. The 8.0 mM K treatment which showed the greatest growth had 5.01 g in dry weight and 2.76% in K content of above ground plant tissue, suggesting that maintaining K content higher than 1.7% is necessary for good growth of Perilla frutesens. The K concentrations in petiole sap and soil solution of 8.0 mM treatment were $12,289mg{\cdot}kg^{-1}\;and\;11.65mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$, respectively. These indicated that K fertilization to maintain higher than $8,700mg{\cdot}kg^{-1}$ in petiole sap and $4.5mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ in soil solution are necessary to ensure good crop growth.

본 연구는 칼륨의 시비농도를 인위적으로 조절하여 잎들깨의 생장과 결핍증상 발현에 미치는 영향을 구명하고, 생육을 우수하게 유지할 수 있는 식물체 및 토양의 한계농도를 밝히기 위하여 수행하였다. 칼륨 결핍 증상은 노엽에서 시작되었으며, 노엽의 가장자리가 황변하고, 황변된 부위가 점차 갈색으로 변화되었으며, 갈변 후 괴사하였다. 칼륨 시비농도를 8mM까지 높일 경우 엽장과 줄기직경이 길거나 굵어졌으며, 생체중 및 건물중이 무거워지고, 엽록소 함량이 감소하였다. 생육이 우수하였던 K 8mM 시비구의 식물체당 건물중과 K 함량이 5.01g과 2.76%였으며, 생장억제를 방지하기 위해서는 1.7% 이상의 K 함량을 가져야 한다고 판단되었다. 칼륨을 8mM로 시비한 처리의 엽병추출액내 K 농도가 $12,289mg{\cdot}kg^{-1}$였고, 1:2로 추출한 토양농도가 $11.65mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$였으며, 엽병추출액은 $8,700mg{\cdot}kg^{-1}$이상, 토양용액은 $4.5mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$을 유지하도록 시비하여야 수량 감소를 방지할 수 있다고 판단되었다.
