Abstract:In order to explore the regulating effects of different fertilization levels and paclobutrazol treatments under different conditions on photosynthesis and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters and elucidate the feasible combination of fertilization and paclobutrazol for better growth of potatoes.Two-factor randomized block design was applied to study the effects on leaf photo synthetic pigment,photosynthesis and chlorophyll fluorescence parameter in potato (jinshu 16) with SV organic inorganic compound fertilizer (0, 300, 600, 900, 1 200, 1 500kg·hm-2) and paclobutrazol (squaring stage, squaring stage and bloom stage, squaring stage,bloom stage and flowering stage).The results showed that compared with the control, total chlorophyll (Chla+b), carotenoids(Car),the net photosynthetic rate(Pn),transpiration rate(Tr),stomatal conductance(Gs),the maximum fluorescence(Fm), maximum photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fm),the PSII potential activity(Fv/Fo),the actual photochemical efficiency (Y(II)),electron transport rate(ETR),photochemical quenching coefficient (qP),the light use efficiency (LUE),dry matter content and yield were all increased under effects of different fertilization levels, different times and periods of paclobutrazol and their interactions,but intercellular CO2 concentration (Ci) and minimal fluorescence (Fo) were decreased. Thus, increasing input of organic inorganic compound fertilizer and spraying paclobutrazol could significantly improve potato leaf photosynthetic characteristics. The best combination were fertilizer level (1 200 kg·hm-2) and spraying paclobutrazol (squaring stage and bloom stage),which was based on various indicators and variance analysis. This treatment could obtain a higher photosynthesis and chlorophyll fluorescence parameter, obtained a higher utility rate of luminous energy,promoted the luminous energy that potato captured to use for photosynthesis,and the yield could be increased ultimately.This study could provides an important theoretical basis for potato production in the field.
