Abstract

Uniform scions and rootstocks should be produced to ensure grafting success. Light quality is an important environmental factor that regulates seedling growth. The effects of warm- and cool-white light emitting diode (LED) ratios on seedling growth were investigated. Scions and rootstocks of cucumber, tomato, and watermelon were grown in a closed transplant production system using LED as the sole lighting source. The LED treatments were W1C0 (only warm-white), W1C1 (warm-white: cool-white = 1:1), W3C1 (warm-white: cool-white = 3:1), and W5C2 (warm-white: cool-white = 5:2). The seedlings grown in W1C1 had the shortest hypocotyls, and the seedlings grown in W1C0 had the longest hypocotyls among the three tested vegetables. The hypocotyls of watermelon scions, watermelon rootstocks, and tomato rootstocks were shortest in W1C1, followed by those in W3C1, W5C2, and W1C0, but there was no significant difference between W3C1 and W5C2, which remained the same as the ratio of cool-white LEDs increased. In addition, tomato scions had the first and second longest hypocotyls in W1C0 and W3C1, respectively, and the shortest hypocotyls in W5C2 and W1C1, along with W5C2 and W1C1, although the difference was not significant. The stem diameter was highest in W1C0 except for tomato seedlings and rootstocks of watermelon. The shoot fresh weight of scions and rootstocks of cucumber and watermelon and the root fresh weight of cucumber scions were lowest in W1C1. These results indicated that different ratios of LED lighting sources had a strong effect on the hypocotyl elongation of seedlings.

광질은 묘의 형태를 조절하는 중요한 환경 요인 중 하나이다. warm-white와 cool-white LED의 칩에 비율이 다른 bar type를 제작하여, 백색 LED의 광질에 따른 묘의 생육을 조사하고자 연구를 수행하였다. 오이, 토마토 및 수박의 접수와 대목의 종자를 파종하여, LED를 광원으로 하는 식물공장에서 재배하였다. 처리구는 W1C0(warm-white 단독), W1C1 (warm-white:cool-white=1:1), W3C1 (warm-white:cool-white=3:1), W5C2 (warm-white:cool-white=5:2)이다. 모든 처리구에서 W1C1 처리구에서 재배한 묘목의 배축장이 가장 짧았으며, W1C0에서 재배된 묘목의 배축장이 가장 길었다. 수박 접수, 수박 대목, 그리고 토마토 대목의 배축장은 W1C1, W3C1, W5C2, W1C0 순이었으며, 이는 cool-white의 비율이 높은 순서와 같았다. 토마토 접수는 각각 W1C0과 W3C1에서 첫 번째와 두 번째로 배축이 길었고 W5C2와 W1C1에서 가장 짧았으며, 통계적 차이는 없었다. 경경은 토마토 접수, 토마토 대목 및 수박 대목을 제외하고는 큰 차이가 없었다. 토마토 접수, 토마토 대목 및 수박 대목의 줄기 직경은 W1C0에서 가장 굵었다. 오이, 수박의 접수와 대목의 지상부 생체중과 오이 접수의 지하부 생체중은 W1C1에서 가장 작았다. 본 연구를 통해 LED 광원의 다양한 비율은 묘목의 배축 신장에 크게 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다.
