Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of two male cultivars of asparagus with low different chilling periods on bud breaking, relative spear growth rate, shoot number and yield. Four-month-old plants of two male cultivars of asparagus were dried to impose dormancy and placed in a coldroom at $5^{\circ}C$ to satisfy the chilling requirement for 0, 2, 4, and 6 weeks. After the specified chilling time, the pots were placed in greenhouse. The results showed that mean days to bud break of 'Jersey Giant' significantly decreased with an increasing chilling period from 0 to 6 weeks, but 'Jersey Supreme' was not affected. The relative spear growth rate of 'Jersey Supreme' was significantly stimulated by chilling compared to non-chilled plants. Shoot production and total spear weight of 'Jersey Supreme' tended to be greater than 'Jersey Giant' irrespective of chilling treatments. Following low temperature treatment, 'Jersey Supreme' showed shorter dormant period than 'Jersey Giant', faster growth of spear. The present study showed that asparagus male cultivar at duration of chilling treatment had an affirmative effect on bud breaking, spear growth rates, shoot number and yield of asparagus.

본 연구의 목적은 아스파라거스 두 전웅 품종의 저온처리에 따른 순 생장률, 지상부 숫자 및 수확량에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구를 조사하였다. 4개월된 아스파라거스 두 전웅 품종 묘를 인위적으로 휴면시킨 후, $5^{\circ}C$ 온도 조건 하에 0, 2, 4, 6 주씩 각각 저온 처리하였다. 저온처리 후 묘를 유리 온실로 옮겨 재배하였다. 'Jersey Giant' 품종은 저온처리 기간이 무처리에서 6주까지 길수록 휴면타파가 현저하게 촉진되었으나 'Jersey Supreme'는 영향을 받지 않았다. 저온 처리된 'Jersey Supreme' 품종은 상대 순 생장률이 대조구보다 높았다. 'Jersey Supreme'의 지상부 갯수와 수확량은 저온 처리구에 관계 없이 'Jersey Giant'보다 더 높았다. 저온처리에 따라 'Jersey Supreme'가 'Jersey Giant'보다 휴면타파 기간이 단축되었고 상대 순 생장률이 더 높았다. 본 연구의 결과, 저온 처리된 기간에서 아스파라거스 전웅 품종의 휴면타파, 순 생장률, 지상부 갯수와 수확량에 긍정적 효과를 나타냈다고 판단된다.
