Abstract
Excessive accumulation of phlorizin in soil is one of the main causes of apple replanting disease (ARD). This study evaluated the effects of phlorizin stress on apple seedlings grafted with three dwarfing interstocks [Jizhen 1 (J1), Jizhen 2 (J2), and SH40]. Phlorizin stress increased relative electrolyte leakage, caused reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde accumulation, and significantly reduced chlorophyll content, photosynthesis rates, and nutrient absorption, accumulation, and transport, inhibiting apple tree growth regardless of the interstock. Antioxidant enzyme activity was significantly affected in each rootstock/interstock/scion combination under phlorizin stress; however, apple seedlings maintained higher antioxidant enzyme activity levels when J1 was used as the interstock. Principal component and membership function analyses showed that compared to the other interstocks, J1 conferred stronger resistance and mineral nutrient utilization efficiency for apple trees to cope with phlorizin stress. These results highlight the phlorizin resistance and nutrient utilization efficiency of different interstocks under phlorizin stress and provide new insights into the breeding of ARD-resistant rootstock.
期刊介绍:
Scientia Horticulturae is an international journal publishing research related to horticultural crops. Articles in the journal deal with open or protected production of vegetables, fruits, edible fungi and ornamentals under temperate, subtropical and tropical conditions. Papers in related areas (biochemistry, micropropagation, soil science, plant breeding, plant physiology, phytopathology, etc.) are considered, if they contain information of direct significance to horticulture. Papers on the technical aspects of horticulture (engineering, crop processing, storage, transport etc.) are accepted for publication only if they relate directly to the living product. In the case of plantation crops, those yielding a product that may be used fresh (e.g. tropical vegetables, citrus, bananas, and other fruits) will be considered, while those papers describing the processing of the product (e.g. rubber, tobacco, and quinine) will not. The scope of the journal includes all horticultural crops but does not include speciality crops such as, medicinal crops or forestry crops, such as bamboo. Basic molecular studies without any direct application in horticulture will not be considered for this journal.
