摘要
肉桂(Cinnamomum verum J. Presl)是斯里兰卡本土的一种香料作物,在该国的出口收入中起着至关重要的作用。树皮是可收获的部分,肉桂的生产可能受到其灌木结构的影响。因此,本研究旨在确定采收间隔、空间格局和种植材料类型对肉桂灌木结构的一些基本方面的影响,即每株茎数、茎高、茎粗、茎直度、茎上、中、低层分枝百分比、单位长度分枝数、分枝长度和角度。采用(A) 1.2×0.6 m每山3株、(B) 1.2×0.4 m每山2株、(C) 1.2×0.2 m每山1株的3种不同的空间模式,在保持相同密度的情况下,种植肉桂品种Sri Gemunu的幼苗和无性繁殖植株(VP)。以上述处理组合维持2个主要地块,按6个月和8个月两个采收期进行采收。这项研究是在第一次收获后两年进行的。结果表明,在C空间模式下的幼苗单位长长茎数显著高于C空间模式(p < 0.05)。同样,8个月采收的幼苗茎长显著(p < 0.05)。VP茎粗显著高于幼苗(p < 0.05)。8个月采收的茎粗显著高于6个月采收的茎粗(p < 0.05)。幼苗比VP更直。因此,通过选择采收间隔、空间格局和种植材料的最佳组合,可以获得肉桂植物较好的灌木结构。
Cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum J. Presl) bush architecture as affected by modified planting systems
Cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum J. Presl) is a spice crop native to Sri Lanka which plays a vital role in the country's export earnings. Bark being the harvestable portion, the production of cinnamon can be affected by its bush architecture. Hence, this study was conducted to identify the impact of harvesting interval, spatial pattern, and type of planting material on some essential aspects of cinnamon bush architecture, namely, the number of stems per plant, stem height, stem diameter, straightness of the stem, percentage of branches in upper, middle and lower levels of the stem, number of branches per unit length, branch length and angle. Seedlings and vegetatively propagated plants (VP) of cinnamon variety Sri Gemunu were planted under three different spatial patterns such as (A) 1.2×0.6 m with three plants per hill, (B) 1.2×0.4 m with two plants per hill, and (C) 1.2×0.2 m with one plant per hill while maintaining an equal plant density. Two main plots were maintained with the above treatment combinations, harvested according to two harvesting intervals (6 and 8 months). The study was conducted two years after the first harvest. According to the results, seedlings established in the spatial pattern C produced a significantly higher (p < 0.05) number of longer stems with fewer branches per unit length. Similarly, seedlings harvested in eight months intervals produced significantly longer stems (p < 0.05). The stem diameter of VP was significantly higher than seedlings (p < 0.05). Similarly, stem diameter was significantly higher when harvested in eight months intervals than six months intervals (p < 0.05). Seedlings were straighter than VP. Therefore, a preferable bush architecture can be obtained in cinnamon plants by selecting an optimum combination of harvesting interval, spatial pattern, and planting material.
