Effect of nitrogen and boron fertilization on nutrient concentrations of red beet during storage

Öz

Aims: In this study, the effects of nitrogen and boron fertilization on mineral element concentrations of red beet under storage conditions were investigated.

Methods and Results: The trial was conducted in Ankara in 2020 and established in a randomized block design with three replications. After harvest, samples were stored at 4°C temperature and 95 ± 2% relative humidity for three months. Changes in mineral element concentrations of stored samples were determined in monthly intervals. According to the results, storage period and fertilization interaction had a significant effect on nitrogen, potassium, iron and copper concentrations. The calcium, zinc, and boron concentrations were affected by storage period. Individiual fertilization effect was only found significant on manganese and boron concentrations. Storage period, fertilization or their interaction did not have an effect on phosphorus and magnesium concentrations of red beet.

Conclusions: The impacts of the nitrogen and boron fertilizers together in red beet cultivation showed differences in macro and micro element contents with the extension of the storage period. Compared to the red beets grown without fertilization (traditional methods), the effects of fertilization on nutrient change of red beets during the storage period have been clearly demonstrated. Therefore, it can be stated that the effect of fertilization also plays an important role during storage period.

Significance and Impact of the Study: Red beet has become a popular vegetable in recent years due to its bioactive substances. Pre-harvest factors (cultivar, fertilization, climate, soil conditions, cultivation techniques etc.) and post-harvest storage conditions are effective on mineral element concentrations in vegetables. This research shows the effectiveness of nitrogen and boron fertilization on macro and micronutrient content in red beet during the storage period and gives direction to future studies.

Azot ve bor gübrelemesinin kırmızı pancarın depolama sürecinde besin elementi konsantrasyonlarına etkisi

Öz

Amaç: Bu araştırmada azot ve bor gübrelemesinin kırmızı pancarın depolama koşullarındaki besin elementi konsantrasyonlarına etkisi incelenmiştir.

Yöntem ve Bulgular: Deneme, 2020 yılında Ankara ilinde tesadüf blokları deneme desenine göre 3 tekerrürlü olarak yürütülmüştür. Hasat sonrasında örnekler 4 °C sıcaklık ve %95 ± 2 oransal nemde 3 ay süre ile depolanmış, aylık periyotlarda depodan alınan örneklerde besin elementi konsantrasyonlarındaki değişimler belirlenmiştir. Çalışmadan elde edilen sonuçlara göre; azot, potasyum, demir ve bakır konsantrasyonları üzerine depolama süresi ve gübreleme interaksiyonu önemli bulunmuştur. Kalsiyum, çinko ve bor konsantrasyonları üzerine depolama süresi, mangan ve bor konsantrasyonları üzerine ise gübrelemenin etkisi önemli olmuştur. Depolama süresi, gübreleme ya da bunların interaksiyonunun kırmız pancarların fosfor ve magnezyum konsantrasyonları üzerine önemli bir etkisinin olmadığı belirlenmiştir.

Genel Yorum: Kırmızı pancar yetiştiriciliğinde azotlu ve borlu gübrelerin birlikte kullanımı ile birlikte depolama süresinin uzamasının köklerdeki makro ve mikro element içerikleri üzerine etki düzeyleri farklı olmuştur. Gübreleme yapılmadan (geleneksel yöntemler) yetiştiriciliği yapılan kırmızı pancarlara kıyasla gübrelemenin depolama sürecinde besin element değişimine etkileri net olarak ortaya konulmuştur. Dolayısıyla gübrelemenin etkisinin depolama sürecinde de önemli bir rol oynadığı ifade edilebilir.

Çalışmanın Önemi ve Etkisi: Kırmızı pancar içerdiği biyoaktif maddeler nedeniyle son yıllarda popülaritesi artan bir sebzedir. Sebzelerin besin elementi konsantrasyonları üzerine hasat öncesi faktörler (çeşit, gübreleme, iklim ve toprak koşulları, yetiştirme tekniği vb.) ile hasat sonrası depolama koşulları etkilidir. Bu araştırma kırmızı pancar yetiştiriciliğinde kullanılan azotlu ve borlu gübrelemenin depolama sürecinde makro ve mikro besin elementi içeriğine etkisini ortaya koyarak gelecekteki çalışmalara yön verme niteliği göstermektedir.
