Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the graft-taking and growth of grafted cucumber seedlings as affected by light quality and blink cycle of LED modules. Four light quality treatments, namely blue, red, blue+red, white LED and four blink cycle levels of 5s/5s, 7s/3s, 9s/1s and control were provided to investigate the effect of lighting quality and blink cycle on the graft-taking and growth of grafted cucumber seedlings. Photoperiod for the control was 12/12 h. Photosynthetic photon flux, air temperature, and relative humidity for healing were maintained at $100{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$, $25^{\circ}C$, and 90%, respectively. There was no significant difference in graft-taking of grafted cucumber seedlings according to light quality except the blue LED with the blink cycle of 5s/5s. Regardless of the blink cycle, there was no significant difference in graft-taking of cucumber seedlings healed under red, blue+red, and white LED modules. These results implied that the effects of light quality and blink cycle on the graft-taking were not significant. Differences in the leaf length, leaf area, and fresh weight of cucumber seedlings healed blue or red LED with the blink cycle of 9s/1s were found to be significant. There was no significant effect of the blink cycle on the growth of cucumber seedlings healed under white LED modules. The prices of white LED are gradually falling due to increased demand. Considering the manufacturing unit price of white LED modules, the cost savings of 10-15% are expected as compared to the conventional blue/red LED modules. Therefore, it was concluded that the use of white LED modules will be economical as an artificial lighting sources for healing of grafted seedlings.

본 연구는 활착실 내의 인공광원으로 사용되는 LED 모듈의 광질 및 점멸주기가 오이접목묘의 활착 및 생장특성에 미치는 영향을 분석하고자 수행되었다. 이를 위해서 LED 모듈의 광질을 4수준(청색광, 적색광, 청색광/적색광 혼합, 백색광)으로 설정하였다. 또한 점멸주기를 4수준(5s/5s, 7s/3s, 9s/1s, control)으로 설정하였다. 대조구의 명기와 암기는 12h 간격으로 반복되었다. 활착실 내의 광합성유효광양자속, 기온 및 습도를 각각 $100{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$, $25^{\circ}C$, 90%로 조절하였다. 오이접목묘의 활착에 미치는 광질의 효과는 5s/5s의 점멸주기를 지닌 청색광 처리구를 제외하면 유의차가 나타나지 않았다. 더구나, 점멸주기와 무관하게 적색LED, 청색/적색 혼합 LED, 백색 LED 처리구에서의 활착율에 유의차가 없었다. 이러한 결과는 접목묘의 활착에 미치는 광질 또는 점멸주기의 영향이 없음을 의미하는 것이다. 오이접목묘의 엽장, 엽면적, 생체중에 미치는 광질과 점멸주기의 영향은 청색 또는 적색LED의 9s/1s 주기에서 유의차가 인정될 만큼 높게 나타났다. 백색LED하에서 활착된 오이접목묘의 생장에 미치는 점멸주기의 영향은 유의차가 없었다. 따라서 백색LED 모듈의 지속적인 수요 증가와 제조단가 등을 고려할 때 활착용 조명으로 백색LED의 활용이 경제적으로 유리할 것이다.
