Abstract

 In the current study, the response of cv. Fortuna grown under high tunnel
conditions to water deficiency and bio-stimulant application were inspected by
evaluating the morphological (crown number, whole crown diameter and leaf area)
and physiological (stomatal conductance and leaf water potential) parameters
along with the yield. The amounts of applied irrigation water were 1.00 (control) and 0.50 times water
evaporation from surface measured by a standard Class A pan. In current study,
when compare to drought conditions, application of bio-stimulant resulted in
the increase of crown number (25%), yield (13%), mean fruit weight (11%), leaf
area (9%), stomatal conductance (8%), leaf water potential (6%), whole crown
diameter (% 5) and fruit number (3%). Moreover; it could be stated that cv. Fortuna responded to water
deficiency, besides stomatal closure, by reduction of leaf area, fruit number,
crown number, whole crown diameter, leaf water potential (Lwp), mean fruit
weight and yield. When the interactions between bio-stimulant applications and limited-watered
conditions (IR₅₀) are examined in terms of their
morpho-physiological responses, it has been found there are clearly abundant
variation for stomatal conductance (12%), leaf area (4%), Lwp (5%) and mean
fruit weight (8%). All these results show that bio-stimulant applications should
be combined with optimal irrigation water, besides, obtaining information about
plant morpho-physiological responses under drought conditions can contribute to
improving of plant adaptations under multiple stress conditions for strawberry.

Farklı Sulama Seviyeleri ve Biyo-uyarıcı Uygulamalarına Fortuna Çilek Çeşidinin Verim Morfo- Fizyolojik Tepkilerinin Belirlenmesi

Abstract

Mevcut çalışmada; yüksel
tünel koşullarına altında Fortuna
çilek çeşidinin su eksikliğine ve biostimulant uygulamasına verdiği tepkiler
verim, morfolojik (yaprak alanı, gövde sayısı ve tüm gövde kalınlığı) ve
fizyolojik (stoma iletkenliği ve yaprak su potansiyeli) parametreler
incelenerek değerlendirilmiştir. Uygulanan sulama suyu miktarları, standart bir
Class A panın yüzeyinden buharlaşan suyun 1.00 ve 0.50 katı olarak
belirlenmiştir. Mevcut çalışmada, su eksikliği koşulları kıyaslandığında,
biostimulant uygulamaları gövde sayısını (% 25), verimi (% 13), ortalama meyve
ağırlığını (% 11), yaprak alanını (% 9), stoma iletkenliğinin (% 8), yaprak su
potansiyelini (% 6), tüm gövde kalınlığını (% 5) ve meyve sayısını (% 3)
arttırmıştır. Ek olarak; Fortuna
çeşidinin su eksikliği koşullarına verdiği tepkiler: stomalarını kapatmasının
yanı sıra, yaprak alanında, meyve sayısında, gövde sayısında, tüm gövde
kalınlığında, yaprak su potansiyelinde, ortalama meyve ağırlığında ve verimde
düşüşler meydana getirmesi olarak belirtilebilir. Biostimulant uygulamaları ve
su kısıntısı uygulanan koşullar (Ir₅₀) arasındaki etkileşimler,
morfo-fizyolojik tepkileri açısından incelendiğinde, stoma iletkenliği (% 12),
yaprak alanı (% 4), yaprak su potansiyeli (% 5) ve ortalama meyve ağırlığı (%
8) için önemli miktarlarda farklılıklar olduğu belirlenmiştir. Tüm bu sonuçlar;
biostimulant uygulamalarının en uygun miktarda sulama suyuyla birleştirilmesi
gerektiğini ve ayrıca kuraklık koşulları altında bitki morfo-fizyolojik
tepkileri hakkında bilgi elde edilmesinin, çilek bitkisine yönelik çoklu stres
koşulları altında bitki adaptasyonlarının geliştirilmesine katkıda
bulunabileceğini göstermektedir.
