The Effect of Manganese and Sulfur Applications on the Rocket (Eruca vesicaria subsp. Sativa) Plant Grown in Lime Soils

Abstract

Due to the high lime and pH in the soil, sulfur and micro element deficiencies are observed in green vegetable plants. Rocket, one of the green vegetables and a member of the Brassicaceae family, is widely produced in our country. It is noteworthy that rocket is grown by producers almost everywhere and that this plant grown in our region also has a deficiency of microelements. For this reason, in this study were investigated that the sulfur and manganese requirement of rocket, which is one of the vegetable plants grown in Konya calcareous soil, and the effect of the interaction between these two elements on plant growth and yield. In our study, sulfur (S) fertilizer was applied in three doses (0- 40- 80 kg S da-1) and manganese (Mn) fertilizer in three doses (0- 1- 2 kg Mn da-1) was applied to the rocket plant. The experiment was carried out in the greenhouse conditions according to the randomized plots factorial design. At the end of the experiment, the average leaf height, chlorophyll SPAD value, plant fresh weight, plant height and plant Mn concentration did not differ with different doses of fertilizer applications in the rocket plant. On the other hand, the sulfur concentration in the plant and soil increased significantly with sulfur fertilization (p<0.05). It has been determined that if there is sufficient sulfur in the soil for rocket, there is no need for additional sulfur fertilization.

Kireçli Topraklarda Yetiştirilen Roka (Eruca vesicaria subsp. Sativa) Bitkisine Mangan ve Kükürt Uygulamalarının Etkisi

Öz

Topraklardaki yüksek kireç ve pH’ dan dolayı yeşil sebze bitkilerinde kükürt ve mikro element noksanlığı gözlenmektedir. Yeşil sebzelerden biri olan ve Brassica familyasının bir üyesi olan roka ülkemizde yaygın şekilde üretilmektedir. Rokanın hemen her yerde yetiştirilmesi ve bölgemizde yetiştirilen bu bitkide de mikro element noksanlığı görülmesi dikkati çekmiştir. Bu nedenle yürütülen çalışmada, Konya kireçli topraklarında yetiştirilen rokanın kükürt (S) ve mangan (Mn) ihtiyacının belirlenmesi ve bu iki element arasındaki etkileşimin bitki gelişimi ve verimine etkisi araştırılmıştır. Çalışmamızda; kükürtlü gübre üç dozda (0- 40- 80 kg S da-1) ve manganlı gübrede üç dozda(0- 1- 2 kg da-1 Mn) roka bitkisine uygulanmıştır. Deneme sera şartlarında tesadüf parselleri faktöriyel deneme desenine göre yürütülmüştür. Deneme sonunda roka bitkisinde ortalama yaprak boyu, klorofil SPAD değeri, bitki yaş ağırlığı, bitki boyu ve bitki Mn konsantrasyonu farklı dozlarda gübre uygulamaları ile farklılık göstermemiştir. Buna karşın bitkide ve toprakta kükürt konsantrasyonu kükürt gübrelemesi ile önemli artış göstermiştir (p<0.05). Roka için toprakta yeterli seviyede kükürtün bulunması halinde ek kükürtlü gübrelemeye ihtiyaç olmadığı belirlenmiştir.
