Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fertilizer effect evaluation, and in particular to a method for evaluating fertilizer effect based on a model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Background Art

[0002] Fertilizer is an important agricultural production material. Scientific evaluation of fertilizer application effect is of great significance for improving fertilization technology, improving fertilizer resource utilization efficiency, achieving agricultural production and efficiency increase, and ensuring sustainable agricultural development. The main methods and indicators for evaluating fertilizer application effect include fertilizer utilization rate, fertilizer agronomic efficiency, fertilizer partial productivity, etc.

[0003] In addition to verifying the effect of fertilizers by measuring fertilizer utilization rate and fertilizer partial productivity, plant growth tests are also often used to verify the effect of fertilizers after application. The potted crops that are more involved in the literature include leafy crops such as lettuce and pakchoi; field crops such as rice and corn; and crops used for special fertilizers such as flowers, specific vegetables and fruits.

[0004] There are few patents related to fertilizer efficiency evaluation. Among the patents found, patent CN201610044676.X discloses a method of evaluating zinc fertilizer by quantitatively analyzing the zinc in the tested part of the marked leaves by marking leaves with zinc isotope solution; patent CN201410700860.6 discloses a method of evaluating fertilizer efficiency by comparing soil nutrients before and after crop harvest and calculating fertilizer efficiency; patent CN202010541838.7 screens whether wheat is a nitrogen efficient utilization variety by calculating nitrogen fertilizer utilization rate, nitrogen fertilizer agronomic efficiency, nitrogen fertilizer partial productivity and other data. However, the evaluation methods used in the above patents involving fertilizer efficiency evaluation are completely different from the method described in this patent in terms of crops used and evaluation indicators.

[0005] The commonly used organs for evaluating the fertilizer effect of crops themselves can be divided into five dimensions: roots, stems, flowers, leaves, and fruits. According to the existing relevant literature and patents in my country, in addition to the development of special crop fertilizers, which requires the use of designated crops for fertilizer effect tests, leafy vegetables are most commonly used as representatives to verify the effect of fertilizers, because leafy vegetable crops are easy to obtain, have a short planting cycle, require a relatively small area for planting, and have a relatively low overall planting cost. Commonly used measurement indicators include fresh weight of leafy vegetables, root length, root weight, and chlorophyll content, with a focus on indicators in the two dimensions of roots and leaves. In addition, crops such as corn and rice are used to evaluate the fruit dimension, and flowers are used to evaluate the flower dimension.

[0006] Different crops have different functional requirements for fertilizers. For example, potato crops need good root expansion; sugarcane crops need to control the growth of stems to be moderate; flower crops need to control the quality of flowers; tea and other crops need better leaf taste; apples, pears and other fruit crops need to expand fruits, etc. According to the actual application of fertilizers, there are some problems with the current evaluation methods. For example, when evaluating the effect of fertilizers with leafy crops, only the roots and leaves can be evaluated in one test, and the evaluation dimensions are not comprehensive enough; for example, when using crops such as corn, rice, flowers, fruits and vegetables, the test cycle of one test is long, the planting area required is large, and the labor cost and management cost are high.

[0007] With the acceleration of agricultural modernization and the increasing requirements for precision fertilization, there is an urgent need for a fertilizer efficiency evaluation method that can take into account comprehensiveness, high efficiency and low cost while ensuring the accuracy of the evaluation. Existing evaluation methods cannot meet the needs of quickly screening a large number of fertilizer formulas and accurately determining the effects of fertilizers on different plant parts. This greatly limits the development speed and promotion of new fertilizers, and it is difficult to adapt to the long-term needs of sustainable agricultural development. Therefore, how to find a suitable model plant and a supporting evaluation system to solve these problems in the current fertilizer efficiency evaluation has become a key technical problem that needs to be overcome in this field. Summary of the invention

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the defects of the above-mentioned prior art and to provide a method for evaluating fertilizer efficiency based on the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. By conducting a multi-dimensional systematic evaluation of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana under controlled conditions, an accurate and efficient means of testing the fertilizer effect is provided.

[0009] The present invention is considered in the process of conception:

[0010] The present invention uses the "fruit fly" in plants-Arabidopsis to evaluate the effect of fertilizers. Arabidopsis is a common crop in plant genetic research and is also a model plant that is currently studied more thoroughly. Arabidopsis plants are small, close to the same size as leafy vegetables, saving planting space; one Arabidopsis plant contains five dimensions of roots, stems, leaves, flowers, and fruits at the same time, and one test can obtain the fertilizer effect of five dimensions at the same time. In the early stage of fertilizer development and application, fertilizer effect evaluation tests are mostly carried out in laboratories or in small-area planting demonstration fields, and the cost of the test site needs to be controlled. Compared with crops such as corn and flowers, Arabidopsis has a shorter planting cycle and can bloom and bear fruit in 7-8 weeks; Arabidopsis survives better and can be planted in an artificial climate box, the planting conditions are controllable and the required planting site is small. In summary, using Arabidopsis for fertilizer effect evaluation tests can save time costs and management costs such as site labor while obtaining multi-dimensional evaluation indicators. Fertilizer effect evaluation using Arabidopsis has the significant advantages of high efficiency and low cost. Compared with leafy crops or other commonly used field crops, the evaluation data obtained by evaluating fertilizer efficiency using Arabidopsis thaliana is highly comparable and repeatable, providing a large amount of data for subsequent fertilizer applications in a short period of time, which can be used to establish a standardized database and improve the efficiency of fertilizer product development. Through multiple tests, the advantageous dimensions of the developed fertilizer can be obtained to guide the research and development and application of fertilizers.

[0024] Furthermore, the required fertilizer preparation for evaluation is watered when the Arabidopsis thaliana grows to 3 weeks old, and then watered once a week at a fixed time, for a total of 5 times, and the time interval between adding the culture solution and the required fertilizer preparation for evaluation is not less than 2-3 days.

[0025] Further, in S2, the parameter information of the artificial climate box includes temperature, humidity, and light conditions;

[0026] The temperature of the artificial climate chamber was set at 25°C under light conditions and 21°C under dark conditions;

[0037] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0038] 1) The method of the present invention is obviously advanced. The fertilizer effect evaluation method of the present invention provides an accurate and efficient means of testing the effect of fertilizers by conducting a multi-dimensional systematic evaluation of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana under controlled conditions. This method can comprehensively obtain the growth data of the roots, stems, flowers, leaves, and fruits of the plant within a single test cycle, ensuring the comprehensiveness and accuracy of the evaluation. Since the test is carried out in an artificial climate chamber, planting conditions such as temperature, humidity, light, and culture medium can be precisely controlled, thereby reducing the interference of environmental variables, improving the reliability of the test, and making the evaluation results more stable and repeatable.

[0039] 2) The method of the present invention has significant economic advantages.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0041] The present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments. Component models, material names, connection structures, control methods, algorithms and other features not clearly described in this technical solution are all considered to be common technical features disclosed in the prior art.

[0042] Example 1

[0043] This embodiment provides a method for evaluating fertilizer efficiency based on the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, comprising the following steps:

[0044] S1: Obtain the culture conditions of Arabidopsis thaliana;

[0045] In S1, the culture conditions include the vernalization conditions of Arabidopsis seeds, the specific substrate type required for planting, the planting density, the culture solution product necessary for planting, the amount of culture solution, the time of adding the culture solution, and the time of adding the fertilizer preparation required to be evaluated.

[0046] S1 of this embodiment involves collecting the culture conditions of Arabidopsis thaliana, ensuring the precise control of the planting process and the scientific management of plant growth conditions. The principle of this step is based on a deep understanding of the basic conditions for plant growth, including seed pretreatment, material specifications and nutrient supply required for planting Arabidopsis thaliana.

[0047] Vernalization of seeds is a biological process that simulates winter conditions in the natural environment by exposing them to a specific temperature for a period of time to promote seed germination and growth. In the present invention, the vernalization temperature of Arabidopsis seeds is 0-5°C, and the temperature range is acceptable. The vernalization time is 48h-96h, and the longest time is no more than 96h.

[0048] Soilless culture is a cultivation method that uses culture solution containing essential elements for plant growth and development to provide nutrition without using natural soil. The present invention relates to fertilizer efficiency evaluation. Compared with soil, soilless culture can avoid the influence of complex nutrients and microorganisms in the soil on plant growth, making the evaluation result more controllable. Soilless culture is divided into hydroponics and matrix culture. The present invention adopts matrix culture, and the commonly used materials for matrix culture are rock wool, perlite, vermiculite, coconut bran, etc. Compared with hydroponics, matrix culture has low equipment requirements and is easier for beginners to master. The soilless culture matrix used in the present invention is vermiculite (1-3 mm) and quartz sand (2-5 mm). Vermiculite and quartz sand are evenly mixed in a ratio of 2:1 as the growth matrix of Arabidopsis thaliana. Both materials have good moisturizing effects. The addition of quartz sand will make the entire matrix more breathable and loose, which is more conducive to the growth of Arabidopsis thaliana roots. The seeds of Arabidopsis thaliana are relatively small (1-3 mm) and can be selected within the material specifications provided by the present invention. The material specifications should not be too large, which is not conducive to the germination of Arabidopsis thaliana. In actual operation, the mixed matrix is ​​fully moistened with sterile water or deionized water, and the matrix does not drip and the surface is moist. Then, the Arabidopsis thaliana seeds that have been vernalized are dotted on the surface of the matrix with a dropper, a pipette gun or a toothpick. During germination, water should be replenished in time to keep the surface of the matrix moist.

[0049] The leaf spread (rosette diameter) of Arabidopsis thaliana was 7-15 cm on average during the test period, so the growth space required for each Arabidopsis thaliana plant should be no less than 80 mm*80 mm*100 mm.

[0050] The culture medium preparation necessary for the growth of Arabidopsis thaliana is 1 / 2 MS medium (without sucrose and agar).

[0051] The amount of culture solution used for each Arabidopsis plant is 20ml-30ml, which can be adjusted appropriately according to the size of the culture container. When the Arabidopsis grows to 2 weeks old, water the culture solution, and then water it once a week at a fixed time, for a total of 4 times; when the Arabidopsis grows to 3 weeks old, water it with the required fertilizer preparation, and then water it once a week at a fixed time, for a total of 5 times. It should be noted that the time interval between the addition of the culture solution and the required fertilizer preparation should not be less than 2-3 days.

[0052] S2: Based on the culture conditions, setting control information of the artificial climate box to culture Arabidopsis thaliana;

[0053] In S2, the parameter information of the artificial climate box includes temperature, humidity, and light conditions. The artificial climate box is set to a temperature of 25°C under light conditions and 21°C under dark conditions; humidity is 70%-75%; and light intensity is 5000-6000 lux. In actual operation, the light condition time is 16 hours, and the dark condition time is 8 hours.

[0054] The principle of S2 is to use an artificial climate chamber to simulate and control the optimal environmental conditions for plant growth. By setting precise temperature, humidity and light conditions, a stable and optimal growth environment is provided for Arabidopsis. The dynamic adjustment of these conditions is based on the plant's response to changes in environmental factors at different growth stages, ensuring maximum plant growth and accurate evaluation of fertilizer effects. This environmental control method eliminates the interference of unstable external climate, making growth data more accurate and fertilizer effect evaluation more reliable.

[0055] S3: Determine an evaluation index for Arabidopsis growth, wherein the evaluation index includes one or more dimensional indexes of roots, stems, flowers, leaves, and fruits;

[0056] In S3, the process of determining the evaluation index of Arabidopsis growth includes:

[0057] determining root growth indicators, including one or more of root length, root fresh weight, root dry weight, and root quantity;

[0058] determining stem growth indicators, including one or more of stem length, stem fresh weight, and stem dry weight;

[0059] determining leaf growth indicators, including one or more of leaf number, rosette diameter, leaf fresh weight, leaf dry weight, leaf area, chlorophyll content, and photosynthesis efficiency;

[0060] Determine the growth index of flowers, including one or more of the number of flowers and the diameter of flowers;

[0061] Determine the growth index of the fruit, including one or more of the number of fruits, fruit size, fruit fresh weight, fruit dry weight, and fruit nutritional components.

[0062] In S3, the process of determining the evaluation index of Arabidopsis growth also includes designing data collection methods, including:

[0063] Select data collection tools suitable for various indicators. In the present invention, the length, height, and diameter indicators are measured with a ruler; the fresh weight and dry weight indicators are weighed with an analytical balance; the quantity indicators are counted by counting method; the area, material content, light and efficiency, and nutrient component indicators are detected with professional instruments. Users can select indicators for detection according to the functional requirements of the fertilizer to be evaluated.

[0064] The frequency and timing of data collection were determined to ensure that measurements were taken at key stages of plant growth. Data on the five dimensions were collected when Arabidopsis thaliana grew to 55-60 days.

[0065] In S3, the process of determining the evaluation index of Arabidopsis growth also includes establishing the quantitative standard of the evaluation index, which specifically includes:

[0066] Determine the weight of the indicators. If some indicators are more critical to the evaluation of fertilizer efficiency, they will be given higher weights. For example, in the root dimension, three indicators, root length, root weight, and root number, are selected for root dimension evaluation. The user can set the weight ratio of root length to 30%, root weight to 50%, and root number to 20%. According to the weight ratio, a comprehensive value can be obtained, which can represent the comprehensive effect of a certain fertilizer on the root. The user can set different weight ratios for calculation according to the function of the fertilizer to be evaluated, which is used for the comprehensive evaluation of a certain dimension.

[0067] In S3, the process of determining the evaluation index of Arabidopsis growth also includes the formulation of data recording and analysis plan, including:

[0068] Design data logging forms or databases to record all collected data.

[0069] Select data analysis tools to process and analyze the collected data. Usually, Excel is used for statistics and basic analysis of the data, and SPSS is used for differential analysis of the data.

[0070] The key of S3 of this embodiment is to establish a comprehensive plant growth evaluation system, and ensure a comprehensive evaluation of the plant growth status by selecting key dimensional indicators of roots, stems, flowers, leaves and fruits. The principle of this step is based on the basic knowledge of botany, that is, the growth status of plants can be comprehensively reflected by the development of their different organs. Indicators such as the length and weight of the root are selected because the root system is the main organ for plants to absorb water and nutrients, and its development status is directly related to the growth and health of the plant. The weight and length of the stem reflect the structural support and growth rate of the plant. Indicators such as the number and weight of leaves, chlorophyll content, and photosynthesis efficiency are important indicators for evaluating the energy conversion capacity of plants. The number of flowers is an important indicator of plant reproductive capacity, and the diameter of the flower is an important indicator for measuring the growth rate of plant reproductive organs and the economic value of flowers. Indicators such as the number and weight of fruits are directly related to the reproductive success rate, nutritional value and economic value of plants. Through the comprehensive analysis of these indicators, the key effects of fertilizers on plant growth can be accurately evaluated, and the dominant action sites of fertilizers at different growth stages can be determined. In addition, this step also includes designing data collection methods to ensure the accuracy and comparability of data, as well as establishing data recording and analysis programs to achieve accurate monitoring and evaluation of plant growth. These methods provide a scientific basis for the evaluation of fertilizer effects and help optimize fertilizer formulations and application strategies.

[0071] S4: Collect and compile growth data in various dimensions, evaluate the effect of fertilizers, and determine the dominant sites of action of fertilizers.

[0072] S4 specifically includes the following steps:

[0073] Collect growth data of roots, stems, flowers, leaves, and fruits of Arabidopsis;

[0074] Perform data cleaning and preprocessing to ensure data quality. When processing data, you can remove the maximum and minimum values ​​and values ​​with large differences and then take the average value.

[0075] Use statistical methods to analyze data and find out the impact of fertilizers on various growth dimensions;

[0076] Evaluate fertilizer effectiveness and determine the role of fertilizers in different growth dimensions.

[0077] In S4, the specific process of collecting the growth data of roots, stems, flowers, leaves, and fruits of Arabidopsis thaliana includes:

[0078] Collect physical and physiological data of roots, stems, flowers, leaves, and fruits of Arabidopsis at different growth stages.

[0079] Use standardized data collection tools and methods to ensure data consistency and comparability,

[0080] Record the environmental and culture conditions, including temperature, humidity, light, vernalization temperature and time, amount of culture solution added, composition and amount of fertilizer preparations, and time of adding culture solution and fertilizer preparations.

[0081] In S4, the specific process of using statistical methods to analyze data and find out the effect of fertilizer on each growth dimension includes at least one of the following processes:

[0082] Use charts and graphs to visually display the distribution and trends of data, which can be represented using bar charts or radar charts.

[0083] Generate growth curves to compare the growth of Arabidopsis thaliana under different fertilizer treatments.

[0084] In S4, the types of fertilizers that can be evaluated by this patent include inorganic fertilizers, organic fertilizers, microbial fertilizers, and biostimulants. Fertilizer products are dissolved in sterile water or deionized water and then added.

[0085] The principle of S4 is to use precise data collection and statistical analysis to evaluate the effect of fertilizers. First, physical and physiological data of Arabidopsis roots, stems, flowers, leaves, and fruits are collected through standardized tools, which reflect the plant's response to fertilizer nutrients. Data collection not only includes direct measurement of plant growth, but also involves recording environmental and culture conditions, ensuring data consistency and comparability. Next, data cleaning and preprocessing are used to ensure data quality and lay the foundation for accurate analysis. Then, statistical methods are used to analyze the data to identify the specific effects of fertilizers on various growth dimensions of plants, which involves key physiological processes such as plant growth rate and biomass allocation. Finally, through comprehensive analysis, the effect of fertilizers is evaluated and its role in different growth dimensions of plants is determined, providing a scientific basis for the optimization of fertilizer formulations. In addition, S4 can also include the use of charts and graphs to intuitively display the distribution and trend of data, generate growth curves, compare the growth of Arabidopsis under different fertilizer treatments, and make bar charts or radar charts to display growth data and fertilizer effects in different dimensions. These visualization tools not only help researchers understand the data more intuitively, but also reveal patterns and trends in the data, thereby more accurately evaluating the dominant sites of action of fertilizers. In addition, S4 also includes fertilizer categories that can be evaluated to better serve the evaluation and development of fertilizer products.

The above tray is placed in the incubator, and when the Arabidopsis grows to 2 weeks, the culture solution is irrigated with 20ml / flower pot, and then irrigated once a week at a fixed time, and irrigated 4 times throughout the process. When the Arabidopsis grows to 3 weeks, the required biostimulant preparation for evaluation is irrigated, and then irrigated once a week at a fixed time, and irrigated 5 times throughout the process.
