Effects of Urea and K₂SO₄ treatment on the mineral nutrient concentration and fruit skin color of 'Mibaekdo' peach fruits at harvest

Urea와 K₂SO₄ 처리에 의한 복숭아 '미백도'에서 수확 시 과실의 무기성분 농도 및 과피색 변화

This study has been conducted to investigate the effect of Urea and K₂SO₄ treatment at stone hardening stage and 20 days before harvest on soil chemical properties, mineral nutrient concentration and quality of 'Mibaekdo' fruit peach. K concentration after Urea and K₂SO₄ treatment in soil was increased significantly by Urea 162g+K₂SO₄ 188g/tree(standard amount) treatment at stone hardening stage, K₂SO₄ 1.0% tree-spray, Urea 81g+K₂SO₄ 94g/tree(half amount), Urea 162g+K₂SO₄ 188g/tree and Urea 324g+K₂SO₄ 376g/tree(double amount) soil treatment before harvest 20 days compared to control. T-N, K and Ca concentration in leaf was increased significantly by all treatment. but Na concentration in leaf was increased by Urea 0.5% and K₂SO₄ 1.0% tree-spray treatment before harvest 20 days. T-N concentration in fruit skin was increased significantly by standard amount soil treatment, which decreased by K₂SO₄ 1.0% tree-spray and half amount soil treatment. T-N, K and Ca concentration in fruit flesh(1~10mm depth flesh from peel) were increased markedly by all treatment excepted Urea 0.5% tree-spray. The leaf weight at harvest was increased markedly by Urea 0.5% tree-spray, standard amount and double amount treatment before harvest 20 days. Fruit weight was increased significantly by standard amount compared to all treatment. Red fruit skin(Hunter a value) progress was effective by K₂SO₄ tree-spray, half amount and double amount treatment before harvest 20 days. Fruit SSC was increased significantly by Urea 0.5% and K₂SO₄ tree-spray before harvest 20 days, standard amount treatment at stone hardening stage compared to control.

복숭아 '미백도'에서 Urea 및 K₂SO₄를 토양 또는 수체처리하여 토양의 화학성, 과실의 무기성분 농도, 과피색 및 과실품질에 미치는 영향을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 토양의 화학성 중 K의 함량은 경핵기 Urea 162g+K₂SO₄ 188g/주(표준) 토양처리, 수확 20일 전 K₂SO₄ 1.0% 수체살포, Urea 81g+K₂SO₄ 94g/주(반량), Urea 162g+K₂SO₄ 188g 및 Urea 324g+K₂SO₄ 376g/주(배량) 토양처리에서 무처리에 비하여 증가하였다. 엽의 무기성분 농도는 전처리 모두 엽내 T-N, K 및 Ca 농도가 높았으며 Na 농도는 Urea 0.5% 및 K₂SO₄ 1.0% 수체살포가 높았다. 과피내 T-N 농도는 수확 20일 전 Urea 162g+K₂SO₄ 188g 토양처리에서 높았으나 K₂SO₄ 1.0% 수체살포 및 Urea 81g+K₂SO₄ 94g 토양처리에서는 낮았다. 과피 직하과육(1~10mm부위)의 T-N, K, Ca 농도는 Urea 0.5% 수체살포를 제외한 모든 처리에서 높았다. 엽중은 수확 20일 전 Urea 0.5% 수체살포, Urea 162g+K₂SO₄ 188g 및 Urea 324g+K₂SO₄ 376g 토양처리에서 증가하였다. 과중은 수확 20일전 Urea 162g+K₂SO₄ 188g 토양처리에서 현저하게 증가하였다. 과피색(Hunter a값)은 수확 20일 전 K₂SO₄ 1.0% 수체살포, Urea 81g+K₂SO₄ 94g 및 Urea 324g+K₂SO₄ 376g 토양처리에서 과피 적색 향상에 효과적이었다. 당도는 Urea 0.5% 수체살포, K₂SO₄ 1.0% 수확 20일 전 수체살포 및 Urea 162g+K₂SO₄ 188g 경핵기 토양처리에서 증가하였다.
