Effect of Microcystis viridis and Aphanizomenon gracile Mixture on Maize (Zea mays L.) and Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik) Growth

Abstract

In this study, the effects of different doses of the mixed culture of Microcystis viridis and Aphanizomenon gracile, which are found intensively in some Şanlıurfa reservoirs, on maize (Zea mays L.) and lentil (Lens culinaris Medik) growth were investigated. The doses prepared from the cyanobacteria mixture were applied to the soils by spraying. In terms of root length, 2% dose in lentil and 1% dose in maize were 92% and 60% more effective respectively. The 2% application dose of the cyanobacteria mixture was 70% and 42% more effective respectively than the control in terms of plant height of both plants. In terms of green parts weights, 2% dose was found to be 164% and 30% more effective than the control in both maize and lentil. In root dry weight of maize and lentil, 2% dose was 680% and 139% more effective than the control in both plants.

Mısır (Zea mays L. ) ve Mercimek (Lens culinaris Medik) Gelişimi Üzerine Microcystis viridis ve Aphanizomenon gracile Karışımının Etkisi

Abstract

Bu çalışmada Mısır (Zea mays L.) ve mercimek (Lens culinaris Medik) gelişimi üzerine etkilerini belirlemek amacıyla, Bazı Şanlıurfa baraj göllerinde yoğun olarak bulunan Microcystis viridis ve Aphanizomenon gracile ’in karışık kültürünün farklı dozlarının etkisi araştırılmıştır. Siyanobakteri karışımından hazırlanan dozlar, topraklara püskürtülerek uygulanmıştır. Kök uzunluğu bakımından mercimekte % 2’lik doz ve mısırda % 1 uygulama dozu sırasıyla %92 ve %60 daha etkili bulunmuştur. Siyanobakteri karışımının % 2’lik uygulama dozu bitki boyu artışında kontrole göre % 70 ve %42 daha etkili görülmüştür. Yeşil aksam ağırlıkları bakımından, % 2’lik doz uygulanan mısır ve mercimek, kontrole göre %164 ve %30 daha etkili bulunmuştur. Kök kuru ağırlığında ise % 2’lik uygulama dozu her iki bitkinin kontrole göre % 680 ve % 139 daha etkili okluğu tespit edilmiştir.
