Abstract

The objective of this experiment was to investigate the effect of drip irrigation volume on tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum L.) grown in a greenhouse using perlite medium. Plants were treated by three different irrigation treatment I0, I25, and I50 (where irrigation volume of I25 and I50 was 25% and 50% higher than I0, having limited or no leaching). Growth characteristics of plants, yield and water use efficiency were measured. The result showed that plant height, leaf length and leaf width were lowest in the I0 treated plants. However, these parameters were not statistically significant differences between the plants that were grown in the I25 and I50 treatment. Soluble solids content, acidity and dry matter of 111th, 132nd, and 143rd days harvested tomato were higher in the plants irrigated with lowest volume (I0) than the higher volume (I25 or I50). In addition, water content was lower in the 111th and 132nd days of harvested tomatoes from the I0 treatment. The number of big-size tomatoes (>180 g) was significantly higher in the I25 irrigated plants. There was no significant difference in the total number of harvested fruits among the treatments. The average fruit weight and total yield of harvested tomatoes were lowest in the I0 treated plants. The water consumption of tomato was not significantly different amongst the treatments but water use efficiency was lowest in the I0 treatment. Principal component analysis revealed that total soluble solid and acidity of tomato showed a positive correlation between each other. These results suggest that I25 was the optimum irrigation treatment for tomato based on its measured growth characteristics, yield and water use efficiency.

본 실험은 펄라이트 수경재배에서 급액량이 토마토(Solanum lycopersicum L.)의 생육과 수량에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 수행되었다. 급액 처리는 대조구인 I0와 대조구보다 급액량이 각 25%, 50% 많은 I25와 I50로 세수준 처리하였다. 처리기간 중 대조구 I0 처리구는 배액이 없었다. 조사항목으로 토마토 생육특성, 수량 및 수분이용효율을 측정하였다 토마토의 초장, 엽장 및 엽폭이. I0 처리 가장 짧았고 I25와 I50 처리에서는 통계적으로 차이가 없었다. 처리 후 111일, 132일 및 143일째에 측정한 토마토 과실의 당도, 산도 및 건물율은 관수량이 가장 적은 I0가 관수량이 많은 I25와 I50 보다 높았다. 그러나 처리 후 111일과 132일째 과실 내 수분함량은 I0 처리에서 가장 낮았다. 대과(>180g)의 수는 I25에서 유의하게 더 많았으나 총 수확과 수는 처리 간 유의한 차이가 없었다. 과실의 평균 과중(g·plant-1)과 총 수확량(g·plant-1)은 I0 처리된 토마토에서 가장 낮았다. 수분 소비량은 처리 간 유의한 차이가 없었으나 수분이용효율은 I0 처리에서 가장 낮았다. 주성분 분석 결과 과실의 당도와 산도는 양의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 실험에서 토마토 생육, 과실 특성 및 수분이용효율을 토대로 얻은 결과는 I25가 토마토 펄라이트 수경재배에서 다른 처리 보다 적절한 급액량임을 보여준다.
