Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of planting technology, and in particular to a method for improving drought resistance and water saving of wheat. Background Art

[0002] Drought has become a pervasive global challenge, the severity of which is exacerbated by water scarcity, uneven geographical distribution, and pollution and waste.

[0003] Wheat is a key crop in food production and is widely planted, especially in arid and semi-arid areas. The stability and high yield of wheat have a decisive impact on national food security and the improvement of crop quality. Among many adverse factors, drought is the main obstacle to wheat growth and yield increase. Due to the frequent occurrence of drought, the plant's own physiological response is no longer sufficient to cope with drought stress. At present, the study of the effects of exogenous substances on wheat drought resistance and its physiological mechanisms has become a key research direction in the field of crop stress physiology.

[0004] As a kind of organic acid, exogenous propionic acid and butyric acid can alleviate the inhibitory effect of drought stress on wheat growth and development and promote the growth and development of wheat seedlings. Nanoparticles have the potential to improve the growth and yield of wheat crops, such as Ag nanoparticles, MgO nanoparticles, Cu nanoparticles, and Fe nanoparticles, but current research only focuses on single-factor research, and there are few reports on the synergistic effects between nanoparticles and organic acids. Summary of the invention

[0042] The formula of the nutrient solution is 2mM Ca(NO3)2, 0.75mM K2SO4, 0.25mM KH2PO4, 0.65mM MgSO4, 2μM NnCl2, 30μM FeCl3, 25μM H3BO3, 2μM ZnSO4, 0.5μM CuSO4, 0.1μM ((NH4)6Mo7O 24 , 15% PEG-6000, 0.25 mM propionic acid.

[0043] Test Example 1

[0044] The method for determining the chlorophyll content is as follows: select wheat plants with consistent growth and take 0.2g of fresh wheat leaves, wipe off the impurities on the surface of the tissue, cut into pieces, put into a 25mL brown volumetric flask, dilute to 25mL with 25mL 95% ethanol, store in a sealed place away from light, and after the leaves turn completely white, pour the chlorophyll extract into a cuvette with a light path of 1cm, use 95% ethanol as a blank control, and measure the absorbance at wavelengths of 665nm and 649nm. Chlorophyll a concentration (mg·L-1) Ca=13.95A 665 -6.8A 649 , Chlorophyll b concentration (mg·L -1 )Cb=24.96A 649 -7.32A 665 , and then converted into chlorophyll content (mg g -1 ):Chlorophyll content = (pigment concentration (mg·L -1 )×extraction volume×dilution factor) / sample dry weight.

[0045] The proline content was determined by the acidic ninhydrin colorimetric method. Weigh 0.2g of wheat leaves and place them in a mortar. Grind them into a homogenate with a total of 4mL of 80% ethanol. Transfer the homogenate into a large test tube and rinse the mortar with the remaining 80% ethanol. Cover the test tube and extract in the dark for 1h. Filter the extract, add 1g of artificial zeolite and oscillate for 15min. Centrifuge at 3000r·min-1 for 5min at room temperature. Take 2mL of the supernatant, add 2mL of glacial acetic acid and 2mL of ninhydrin solution in a large test tube, mix thoroughly, boil in a boiling water bath for 20min, and measure the optical density at 515nm after cooling. The proline content (ug / g) in the sample to be tested is found out through the standard curve.

[0046] Root Length and Plant Height 20 wheat seedlings with the same growth potential in each embodiment and comparative example were selected, washed with clean water, dried with absorbent paper, and the root length and plant height were measured with a ruler.

[0047] Table 1 Indoor test

[0048]

[0049] As can be seen from Table 1, under the drought stress caused by PEG, the root length and plant height of Example 1 were significantly increased compared with Comparative Example 1, while there were no obvious changes in Examples 2 and 3. The chlorophyll content in Example 1 was also the highest, which alleviated the decomposition of chlorophyll in wheat leaves under drought stress, and the proline content was also significantly reduced, which alleviated the damage caused by drought to wheat seedlings.

[0050] Test Example 2 Field Test

[0051] The wheat seedlings obtained in step S1 of each embodiment and comparative example were transplanted to the test plot, and the soil organic matter of the test plot was 9.5g / Kg, total nitrogen was 0.63g / kg, available phosphorus was 34.3mg / kg, and available potassium was 87.5mg / kg. The test adopted a split plot design, and after the flowering period, propionic acid was sprayed, and the propionic acid concentration was 0.25mM. The spraying should be uniform without dripping. Theoretical yield (kg / 0.067 hectare) = 0.067 hectare number of ears (number of ears per mu) × number of ears × thousand-grain weight (grams) / 1000×1000. Among them, the final yield of seeds treated in Example 1 was 5249.32kg / hm 2 , Example 2 is 5034.18 kg / hm 2 , Example 3 is 5029.54 kg / hm 2 , Comparative Example 1 is 5007.24kg / hm 2 .
