[0105] (5) Determination of beet morphological indicators
[0106] Plant height: Measure the longest leaf height with a ruler. Number of leaves: Count the number of functional leaves.
[0107] Leaf area index: Use the punch weighing method (calculated based on fresh weight).
[0108] Fresh weight: Select five beets with uniform growth in each plot and weigh the above-ground and underground parts.
[0109] Dry weight: The obtained samples were inactivated at 105°C for 30 min, dried at 60°C to constant weight, the dry weight was determined, and the samples were crushed and sieved for storage in order to determine the nutrient content.
[0110] Root-to-shoot ratio: calculate the dry weight of tubers / dry weight of leaves.

[0121] Note: Different lowercase letters indicate significant differences (P<0.05), the same below.
[0122] In terms of beet yield, as shown in Table 2, the application of microalgae fertilizer on the basis of chemical fertilizer, with the increase of microalgae fertilizer application, the beet yield showed a trend of gradual increase, showing NW3>NW2>NW1>CK. Among them, the yield of NW3 treatment was the highest and significantly different from CK, with an increase of 7.3% compared with CK. This shows that the application of microalgae fertilizer combined with chemical fertilizer can promote the increase of beet yield to a certain extent. When the application of microalgae fertilizer is 9L / hm 2 Under the same conditions, the amount of nitrogen fertilizer was appropriately reduced. The results showed that with the reduction of nitrogen fertilizer, the beet yield showed a gradual downward trend, which was N1W2>N2W2>N3W2. However, the yield was significantly higher than that of CK, among which the yield of N1W2 (nitrogen reduction 10%) treatment was the highest, reaching 70480.86 kg / hm 2 , an increase of 10.8% compared with CK. This shows that appropriate nitrogen reduction combined with microalgae fertilizer can promote the increase of sugar beet yield to a certain extent.
[0123] In terms of sugar content of beets, the results in Table 2 show that when microalgae fertilizer is applied in combination with chemical fertilizer, the sugar content of beets first increases and then decreases with the increase in the amount of microalgae fertilizer applied, showing NW2>NW1>NW3>CK. Among them, the sugar content of NW2 treatment is the highest, reaching 18.03%, indicating that the appropriate application of microalgae fertilizer has a certain effect on increasing the sugar content of beet roots. At the same time, the results of reducing chemical fertilizer and applying microalgae fertilizer show that when the application amount of microalgae fertilizer is 9L / hm 2 Under the same conditions, its sugar content was still significantly higher than that of CK, showing N2W2>N1W2>N3W2, among which the sugar content of N2W2 (20% nitrogen reduction) treatment was the highest at 17.96%, indicating that appropriate nitrogen reduction combined with microalgae fertilizer can increase the sugar content of beetroot to a certain extent.
[0124] The results of comprehensive analysis of sugar beet production are shown in Table 2. When the application rate of microalgae fertilizer is 9L / hm 2 Its sugar production can reach the highest level, reaching 12237.92 kg / hm 2 , which was significantly higher than CK. 2 When nitrogen was reduced appropriately, the sugar yield was N1W2>N2W2>N3W2>CK, and the sugar yield of each nitrogen reduction treatment was still significantly higher than that of CK, among which N1W2 treatment had the highest sugar yield. This shows that the appropriate microalgae fertilizer combined with chemical fertilizer treatment has a certain effect on improving the yield and quality of sugar beets.
[0125] (2) Effects of different fertilizer combinations on the physical and chemical properties of sugar beet soil
[0126] a. The effects of different fertilizer compositions on the pH of sugar beet soil are shown in Table 3.
[0127] Table 3 Effect of different fertilizer compositions on sugar beet soil pH
[0128]
[0129] Soil pH is an important indicator of soil physical and chemical properties. The results in Table 3 show that after the application of microalgae fertilizer with chemical fertilizer, the soil pH value showed an overall increasing trend with the increase of microalgae fertilizer application during the seedling age of 60 to 120 days, and was significantly higher than CK, but there was no significant difference among the treatments. 2 Under the same conditions, the soil pH value after nitrogen reduction treatment showed a slight increase trend during the 40-120 days of seedling age with the reduction of nitrogen fertilizer, which was higher than CK and the difference was significant. In general, the application of chemical fertilizers and microalgae fertilizers can stabilize the soil pH value between 7.5 and 8.0, which is conducive to the normal growth and development of sugar beets and the reproduction of alkaline active microalgae.
[0130] During the growth and development of beets, the closer the soil pH is to neutral or slightly alkaline, the more conducive it is to the growth of beets. Microalgae fertilizers stimulate photosynthetic bacteria, which decompose organic matter in the soil and produce carbon sources. After a certain period of reproduction, they help stabilize the soil pH and avoid the problem of excessive soil acidification. The application of microalgae fertilizers can effectively regulate the acid-base balance of the soil, especially in the late growth period, it can maintain the soil pH between 7.5-8.0.
[0131] b. The effects of different fertilizer compositions on soil alkaline nitrogen content are shown in Table 4.
[0132] Table 4 Effect of different fertilizer compositions on soil alkaline nitrogen content (unit: mg / kg)
[0133]
[0134] From the results in Table 4, it can be seen that the application of different amounts of microalgae fertilizer and the treatment of reduced nitrogen and microalgae fertilizer can significantly increase the soil alkaline nitrogen content compared with CK. Among them, the treatment of chemical fertilizer combined with microalgae fertilizer showed an overall increasing trend in soil alkaline nitrogen content at each growth period with the increase of microalgae fertilizer application amount. Among them, the soil alkaline nitrogen content of NW2 treatment was the highest at 40d and 100-120d of seedling age, while the difference in soil alkaline nitrogen content between NW2 and NW3 was not significant at 60-120d. When microalgae fertilizer was applied and nitrogen was reduced, the soil alkaline nitrogen content showed a gradual downward trend with the reduction of nitrogen fertilizer, but the soil alkaline nitrogen content of each treatment was still higher than that of CK, especially the N1W2 treatment was significantly different from CK. The soil alkaline nitrogen content of this treatment in each growth period was increased by 18.4%, 13.8%, 16.35%, 14.22% and 10.87% respectively compared with CK. It shows that the appropriate application of chemical fertilizer combined with microalgae fertilizer has a promoting effect on the increase of soil alkaline nitrogen content.
[0135] The application of microalgae fertilizer can significantly increase the alkaline nitrogen content of sugar beet soil. The higher the application concentration, the more obvious the effect is, and it is reflected in the uninterrupted effect during the whole growth period. It is also found that after the dosage reaches a certain level, the effect is basically constant, which is manifested as an application amount of 9L / hm 2 and 12L / hm 2 There was no significant difference in the alkaline nitrogen content in the soil.
[0136] (3) Effects of different fertilizer combinations on sugar beet soil enzyme activity
[0137] a. Effects of different fertilizer compositions on urease activity in sugar beet soils are shown in Tables 5 and Figure 1 shown.
[0138] Table 5 Effects of different fertilizer combinations on urease activity in sugar beet soil (mg·g -1 ·d -1 )
[0139]
[0140] The activity of soil urease (S-UE) is positively correlated with soil N utilization efficiency. Figure 1 From the results in Table 5, it can be seen that after the application of microalgae fertilizer with chemical fertilizer, the soil urease activity showed an increasing trend with the increase of microalgae fertilizer application during the seedling age of 60-100 days, showing NW3>NW2>NW1, and NW2 and NW3 were significantly higher than CK. Among them, the soil urease activity of NW3 treatment reached the maximum value at 60-120 days, increasing by 9%, 15%, 14.6% and 7.1% respectively compared with CK. This shows that the application of microalgae fertilizer can improve soil urease activity to a certain extent.
[0141] After the application of microalgae fertilizer and nitrogen reduction treatment, the soil urease activity showed a significant downward trend from 60 to 120 days, showing N1W2>N2W2>N3W2>CK, and the difference between CK and soil urease activity was significant. During the period of 60 days to 100 days, the soil urease activity in the N1W2 treatment was the highest, and the soil urease activity at 60 days and 80 days increased by 13.6% and 22.5% respectively compared with CK. The soil urease activity reached the highest level at 100 days, which was 0.52 mg·g -1 ·d -1 This indicates that applying microalgae fertilizer and appropriately reducing nitrogen fertilizer can effectively maintain urease activity in the soil at a high level.
[0142] b. Effects of different fertilizer compositions on the activity of sucrase in beet soil are shown in Tables 6 and Figure 2 shown.
[0143] Table 6 Effects of different fertilizer combinations on sucrase activity in sugar beet soil (mg·g -1 ·d -1 )
[0144]
[0145]
[0146] The activity of soil sucrase (S-SC) is positively correlated with the transformation of organic matter in the soil. Figure 2The results show that when microalgae fertilizer was applied on the basis of chemical fertilizer, there was no significant difference among the treatments at 40 days of seedling age with the increase of microalgae fertilizer application. During the period of 60-100 days of seedling age, the soil urease activity increased first and then decreased with the increase of microalgae fertilizer application, showing NW2>NW3>NW1. And the soil urease activity of NW2 and NW3 treatments was significantly higher than that of CK. Among them, the soil urease activity of NW2 treatment reached the maximum at 100 days of seedling age, an increase of 22.2% compared with CK, while the soil urease activity of NW3 treatment reached the highest at 120 days of seedling age, an increase of 13.7% compared with CK. It shows that microalgae fertilizer has a promoting effect on the improvement of soil sucrase activity.
[0147] When the application rate of microalgae fertilizer is 9L / hm 2 Under the same conditions, the amount of nitrogen fertilizer was appropriately reduced, and the soil sucrase activity showed a significant downward trend during the 60-120 days, showing N1W2>N2W2>N3W2; among them, the soil sucrase activity in the N1W2 treatment was the highest in each growth period, increasing by 23.56%, 18.9%, 20.32%, and 24.81% compared with CK, respectively, and there were significant differences with CK except for the 40 days of seedling age. This shows that the application of microalgae fertilizer and the appropriate reduction of nitrogen fertilizer can effectively promote the activity of sucrase in the soil.
[0148] c. The effects of different fertilizer compositions on soil catalase activity are shown in Tables 7 and Figure 3 shown.
[0149] Table 7 Effects of different fertilizer compositions on soil catalase activity (μmol·h -1 ·g -1 )
[0150]
[0151] Soil catalase (S-CAT) is positively correlated with soil enzymatic reactions and can reduce the damage of excessive accumulation of hydrogen peroxide in the soil to plant roots. Figure 3 The results show that when microalgae fertilizer is applied on the basis of chemical fertilizer, with the increase of microalgae fertilizer application, soil urease activity shows a trend of first increasing and then decreasing during the seedling age of 80-120 days, and soil urease activity shows a gradual increase trend during the seedling age of 80-120 days, showing NW3>NW2>NW1, and reaches the maximum value at the seedling age of 100 days, increasing by 8.4%, 4.6%, and 2% respectively compared with CK. This shows that the application of microalgae fertilizer can promote soil catalase activity to a certain extent.
[0152] When the application rate of microalgae fertilizer is 9L / hm 2Under the same conditions, the amount of nitrogen fertilizer was appropriately reduced, and it showed a gradual decrease during the seedling age of 60-120 days, showing N1W2>N2W2>N3W2, among which N1W2 was significantly different from CK, increasing by 18.39%, 15.23%, 20.79%, and 17.28% respectively compared with CK. This shows that appropriate nitrogen reduction combined with microalgae fertilizer can effectively increase soil catalase activity.
[0153] d. The effects of different fertilizer compositions on soil polyphenol oxidase activity are shown in Table 8 and Figure 4 shown.
[0154] Table 8 Effects of different fertilizer combinations on soil polyphenol oxidase activity (μmol·h -1 ·g -1 )
[0155]
[0156]
[0157] Polyphenol oxidase (S-OOP) is an important oxidase in the process of humus synthesis, and it is negatively correlated with organic matter and humus in the soil. Figure 4 The results show that when microalgae fertilizer is applied in combination with chemical fertilizer, the change pattern of soil polyphenol oxidase activity during the seedling age of 60-120 days is CK>NW1, NW2>NW3 with the increase of microalgae fertilizer application rate. Among them, the soil polyphenol oxidase activity of NW3 treatment is the lowest and significantly different from CK. At the seedling age of 120 days, the soil polyphenol oxidase activity of NW3 treatment is 6.1% lower than that of CK, indicating that microalgae fertilizer treatment can maintain the activity of soil polyphenol oxidase at a low level.
[0158] When the application rate of microalgae fertilizer is 9L / hm 2 Under the same conditions, the amount of nitrogen fertilizer was appropriately reduced. The activity of soil polyphenol oxidase showed a continuous upward trend during the 80-120 days of seedling age, showing N1W2<N2W2<N3W2<CK. And the nitrogen reduction treatments were significantly different from CK. Among them, N1W2 was extremely different from CK, and it was reduced by 11.7%, 14.07% and 7.44% respectively during the 80-120 days of seedling age. The overall results show that nitrogen reduction combined with microalgae fertilizer treatment can effectively reduce soil polyphenol oxidase activity.
[0159] In summary, the application of different concentrations of microalgae fertilizer had different effects on soil enzyme activity at different stages of sugar beet production. 2The concentration of microalgae fertilizer increased the activities of soil urease, sucrase, and catalase during the growth period and was significantly higher than the control. The higher the concentration of microalgae fertilizer, the more obvious the effect of enhancing soil urease activity. The effect of microalgae fertilizer on soil peroxidase activity was more significant in the early growth period of beets, while the effect on polyphenol oxidase was significant after the microalgae entered the soil and fully multiplied and expanded. It can effectively reduce the activity of polyphenol oxidase in the soil in the late growth period.
[0160] (4) Effects of different fertilizer compositions on the abundance of sugar beet soil microbial communities
[0161] a. The effects of different fertilizer compositions on soil microbial community diversity are shown in Table 9.
[0162] Table 9 Effects of different fertilizer compositions on soil microbial community diversity
[0163]
[0164] By understanding the soil microbial diversity index, we can better understand the richness and distribution uniformity of soil microorganisms in the soil ecosystem, thereby evaluating the stability and health of the soil ecosystem. Three representative treatments were selected for soil microbial diversity evaluation: no microalgae fertilizer treatment (CK), microalgae fertilizer treatment (NW2) and microalgae fertilizer reduced nitrogen treatment (N3W2). Chao, Sobs and ACE indices are commonly used indices for estimating the total number of species in ecology, which can directly reflect the community richness, while the Shannon index can reflect the community diversity. As shown in Table 9, the Chao index, Sobs index, ACE index and Shannon index of the soil bacterial community in the three treatments of algae fertilizer treatments NW2 and N3W2 showed NW2>N3W2>CK, and the various indexes of NW2 treatment were significantly different from those of CK. This shows that the application of microalgae fertilizer can improve the richness and diversity of soil microbial communities to a certain extent, while the treatment of reduced nitrogen fertilizer will affect the richness and diversity of microbial communities in the soil.
[0165] b. Effects of different fertilizer combinations on soil community composition Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown.
[0166] Based on the results of taxonomic analysis, we can know the community structure composition of different groups (or samples) at various taxonomic levels (such as domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species, ASV, etc.). Based on the community bar chart, two aspects of information can be intuitively presented: (1) what kind of microorganisms each sample contains at a certain taxonomic level; (2) the relative abundance (proportion) of each microorganism in the sample. Figure 5As shown, it can be clearly seen that the relative abundance of Actinobacteriota and Proteobacteria increased significantly under the treatment of microalgae fertilizer, and their abundance was NW2>N3W2>CK. Actinomycetes accounted for 37.05%, 27.69%, and 27.06%, respectively. Proteobacteria accounted for 28.22%, 23.35%, and 19.44%, respectively. The relative abundance of Acidobacteriota decreased in NW2 compared with CK, showing NW2<N3W3<CK, accounting for 13.23%, 18.40%, and 23.07%, respectively.
[0167] Circos Figure 6 The proportion of Actinobacteriota in each treatment is NW2>CK>N3W2, accounting for 12%, 11.34% and 10% on average, respectively. Soil actinomycetes can decompose organic matter and convert it into nutrients that can be used by plants, providing nutrients for plant growth. Secondly, antibiotics can be produced to inhibit the growth of other microorganisms and protect crops. In addition, soil actinomycetes can also fix nitrogen, provide nitrogen elements for plants, promote plant growth and development, decompose harmful substances, etc. This shows that microalgae fertilizer can increase the actinomycetes in the soil, but the application of the same microalgae fertilizer and the reduction of nitrogen fertilizer will reduce the actinomycetes in the soil.
[0168] The proportion of Proteobacteria in each treatment was NW2>N3W2>CK, accounting for 12%, 11%, and 10.34% on average, respectively. Proteobacteria plays an important role in ecological processes such as soil nitrogen cycle, organic matter decomposition, and soil remediation. This shows that the application of microalgae fertilizer can increase the number of Proteobacteria and is not affected by nitrogen fertilizer.
[0169] Sphingomonas has the ability to fix nitrogen or promote crop rhizosphere growth. The application of microalgae fertilizer promoted the increase in the relative abundance of Sphingomonas, which was NW2>N3W2>CK, with the proportions of each treatment being 43%, 30%, and 27%, respectively.
[0170] In summary, the application of microalgae fertilizer can increase the abundance of actinomycetes and proteobacteria in the soil, reduce the relative abundance of acidobacteria, increase the number of sphingomonas, and thus increase the number of beneficial bacteria.
[0171] (5) Effects of different fertilizer combinations on sugar beet morphological indicators
[0172] a. The effects of different fertilizer compositions on beet plant height are shown in Tables 10 and Figure 7 shown.
[0173] Table 10 Effect of different fertilizer combinations on beet plant height (cm)
[0174]
[0175] Plant height is one of the important growth indicators of sugar beet. The plant height is closely related to the strength of crop photosynthesis and the accumulation of dry matter. Figure 7 It can be seen that with the advancement of the growth period, the overall height of beet plants showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing. It was the highest during the rapid growth period of leaf clusters (seedling age 80-100d) and gradually decreased during the sugar accumulation period (seedling age 120d). When microalgae fertilizer was applied on the basis of chemical fertilizer, with the increase of microalgae fertilizer application, the height of beet plants showed an increasing trend with the increase of microalgae fertilizer concentration at 40-80d of seedling age, which was NW3>NW2>NW1. It showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing at 100-120d of seedling age, and was significantly higher than CK. After the application of microalgae fertilizer and nitrogen reduction treatment, the height of beet plants showed a trend of gradually decreasing with the reduction of nitrogen fertilizer. Among them, N1W2 and N2W2 treatments were significantly higher than CK. At 100d of seedling age, the height of beet plants reached the maximum value, which was 8.9% and 5.9% higher than CK, respectively. It shows that nitrogen reduction and microalgae fertilizer treatment are beneficial to promote the rapid growth of beet to a certain extent.
[0176] b. The effect of different fertilizer compositions on the number of sugar beet leaves is shown in Tables 11 and Figure 8 As shown, Figure 8 The groups corresponding to each column chart are Figure 7 .
[0177] Table 11 Effect of different fertilizer compositions on the number of sugar beet leaves (pieces / plant)
[0178]
[0179] Leaves play an indispensable role in the growth and development of plants. They are not only the site of photosynthesis and water transpiration, but also the basis of plant metabolic stability, directly affecting plant growth and yield. Figure 8 It can be seen that during the entire growth period of beet, the number of beet leaves showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing as the growth period prolonged. During the root and sugar growth period (seedling age 100 days), the number of beet leaves reached the highest point during the growth period. Subsequently, due to the slow growth of new leaves and the accelerated shedding of senescent leaves, the number of leaves showed a period of stability and began to gradually decrease. In the period of 60-120 days of seedling age, the number of beet leaves increased first and then decreased as the application of microalgae fertilizer increased. Among them, the number of NW2 leaves increased significantly, and the difference was significant compared with CK; when the application of microalgae fertilizer was 9L / hm 2Under the same conditions, after the rapid growth period of leaves (seedling age 80 days), the number of beet leaves showed a downward trend with the decrease of nitrogen fertilizer application, showing N1W2>N2W2>N3W2>CK, and the N1W2 and N2W2 treatments were significantly different from CK. When the number of beet leaves reached the maximum at the 100th day of seedling age, it increased by 10.34% and 9.4% compared with CK, respectively. This shows that the application of appropriate chemical fertilizers combined with microalgae fertilizers is beneficial to the development of the aboveground part of beets.
[0180] c. The effects of different fertilizer compositions on the fresh weight of sugar beets are shown in Tables 12 to 13 and Fig. 9 As shown, Fig. 9 The groups corresponding to each column chart are Figure 7 .
[0181] Table 12 Effect of different fertilizer compositions on fresh weight of sugar beet above ground (kg / plant)
[0182]
[0183] Table 13 Effect of different fertilizer compositions on underground fresh weight of sugar beet (kg / plant)
[0184]
[0185]
[0186] From Tables 12 to 13 and Fig. 9 As shown, it is the fresh weight of the aboveground and underground parts of beets. During this period, the growth of various organs of beets was obvious. After the application of microalgae fertilizer, with the increase of microalgae fertilizer concentration, the leaves, petioles and tubers slowly increased; when the concentration of microalgae fertilizer remained unchanged, with the reduction of nitrogen fertilizer, the weight of various organs showed a downward trend. Among them, N1W2, which is a treatment with 10% nitrogen reduction, the weight of various organs is greater than that of the treatment without nitrogen reduction, and the difference is significant with CK.
[0187] During the sugar growth period (seedling age 100 days), the aboveground part grew slowly, and the beet roots expanded rapidly, and the weight almost reached the maximum value; at this time, the differences among the treatments were obvious. With the increase of microalgae fertilizer concentration, the aboveground part showed a slow increasing trend, and the underground part showed a rapid increasing trend, which was NW3>NW2>NW1. With the unchanged concentration of microalgae fertilizer, the beet roots showed a significant decreasing trend with the reduction of nitrogen fertilizer, which was N1W2>N2W2>N3W2>CK, and all of them were significantly different from CK, increasing by 26.8%, 23.1%, and 6.4% respectively compared with CK. This shows that the application of microalgae fertilizer or the application of microalgae fertilizer and the reduction of nitrogen fertilizer can promote the weight gain of the aboveground and underground parts of beets.
[0188] d. The effects of different fertilizer compositions on the accumulation of sugar beet dry matter are shown in Tables 14 to 15 and Figures 10-11 shown.
[0189] Table 14 Effect of different fertilizer compositions on dry matter accumulation in sugar beet leaves (g / plant)
[0190]
[0191] Table 15 Effect of different fertilizer compositions on the accumulation of dry matter in beetroot (g / plant)
[0192]
[0193] The dry matter of crops is the product of photosynthesis, and its accumulation and distribution are closely related to yield. Figures 10-11 It can be seen that the application of microalgae fertilizer on the basis of chemical fertilizer, during the entire growth period of beet, except for the seedling stage (seedling age 40d), there was no significant difference among the treatments. During the seedling age of 60-120d, the overall trend of the aboveground and underground dry matter accumulation of beet gradually increased with the increase of microalgae fertilizer application, showing NW3>NW2>NW1>CK, and all showed significant differences with CK. When the dry matter accumulation of NW3 treatment reached the maximum at the seedling age of 100d, the aboveground dry matter accumulation increased by 13.36% compared with CK, and the root dry matter accumulation increased by 11.9%. When the microalgae fertilizer application rate was 9L / hm 2 Under the same conditions, with the reduction of nitrogen fertilizer, the dry matter accumulation of the aboveground part during the 60-100 days of seedling age and the underground part during the 60-120 days of seedling age showed a gradual downward trend, showing N1W2>N2W2>N3W2>CK, and there were significant differences with CK. Among them, the dry matter accumulation of the underground part at the 120 days of seedling age increased by 24.59%, 21.85%, and 16.76% respectively compared with CK. This shows that appropriate nitrogen reduction and application of microalgae fertilizer can promote the accumulation of dry matter in sugar beet.
[0194] e. The effects of different fertilizer compositions on the root-crown ratio of beets are shown in Tables 16 and Fig.12 shown.
[0195] Table 16 Effect of different fertilizer combinations on sugar beet root-canopy ratio
[0196]
[0197] The root-to-crown ratio is the weight ratio of the underground part to the aboveground part of the plant, which can show the relationship between the underground part and the aboveground part of the plant during its growth and the transfer of the growth center. Fig.12It can be seen that the root-crown ratio of beets continues to increase with the growth period. When the tuber and sugar growth period (seedling age 100 days), the root-crown ratio is greater than 1, indicating that the growth center of beets has completed the transfer from the aboveground part to the underground part. In the period of 80-120 days of seedling age, with the increase of microalgae fertilizer concentration, the root-crown ratio of beets shows an upward trend, showing NW3>NW2>NW1>CK; when the application rate of microalgae fertilizer is 9L / hm 2 Under the same conditions, the root-to-crown ratio showed a downward trend with the reduction of nitrogen fertilizer, showing N1W2>N2W2>N3W2>CK, among which N1W2 and N2W2 treatments were significantly different from CK. When the root-to-crown ratio of sugar beets reached the maximum at 120 days of age, it was 24.58% and 23.46% higher than that of CK, respectively. This shows that the appropriate nitrogen reduction and microalgae fertilizer application have a significant effect on regulating the timely transfer of sugar beet growth center and improving the distribution of substances to the underground part.
[0198] Microalgae fertilizer concentration 12L / hm 2 Treatment is beneficial to promote the rapid growth of beets, and the concentration of 9L / hm 2 Treatment is more conducive to increasing the number of beet leaves, making its root-crown ratio more advantageous in the tuber and sugar growth period, and more conducive to the accumulation of dry matter and the improvement of sugar content in beet. Considering the planting cost and comprehensive characteristics of beet, 9L / hm2 is recommended for production 2 The application of microalgae fertilizer with a concentration of 1.5-2.0 was the best application amount. In summary, the application of microalgae fertilizer had a significant effect on improving the plant height and leaf number of beets in the early and middle growth stages of beets, and had a significant effect on improving the fresh weight of tubers in the tuber and sugar growth period.
[0199] f. Effects of different fertilizer combinations on sugar beet photosynthetic indicators
[0200] The effects of different fertilizer combinations on the photosynthetic rate of sugar beet net leaves are shown in Tables 17 and Fig.13 shown.
[0201] Table 17 Effects of different fertilizer compositions on the photosynthetic rate of sugar beet net leaves (unit: μmol / m 2 s)
[0202]
[0203]
[0204] The level of plant net photosynthetic rate directly reflects the photosynthetic performance level of leaves and is a key indicator for measuring photosynthetic efficiency. Fig.13It can be seen that the net photosynthetic rate of beet showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing with the growth period, and the net photosynthetic rate of beet leaves reached the highest during the rapid growth period of leaf clusters (60-80d). Microalgae fertilizer was applied on the basis of chemical fertilizers. With the increase of the application amount of microalgae fertilizer, the net photosynthetic rate of beet showed an upward trend, showing NW3>NW2>NW1>CK, which was significantly different from CK. When each treatment reached the maximum value at 80d of seedling age, the net photosynthetic rate of beet increased by 18.5%, 11.88%, and 10.08% respectively compared with CK. This shows that the application of microalgae fertilizer can increase the net photosynthetic rate of beet leaves, and it is particularly obvious during the rapid growth period of leaf clusters. When the application amount of microalgae fertilizer is 9L / hm 2 Under the same conditions, with the reduction of nitrogen fertilizer, the net photosynthetic rate of sugar beet at 60-120 days of seedling age generally showed a downward trend, which was basically N1W2>N2W2>N3W2>CK, and there were significant differences compared with CK, with N1W2 increasing by 16.2% compared with CK. This shows that appropriate nitrogen reduction combined with microalgae fertilizer can maintain the net photosynthetic rate of sugar beet leaves at a high level, while excessive nitrogen reduction will significantly reduce the photosynthetic rate of sugar beet.
[0205] The effects of different fertilizer compositions on the SPAD values of sugar beet net leaves are shown in Tables 18 and Fig.14 shown.
[0206] Table 18 Effect of different fertilizer compositions on the SPAD value of sugar beet net leaves
[0207]
[0208] The leaf SPAD value is an important parameter to measure the relative content of plant chlorophyll and an important indicator to evaluate the growth status of crops. Fig.14 It can be seen that with the advancement of the growth period, the SPAD value of beet leaves showed a slow trend of first increasing and then decreasing. When microalgae fertilizer was applied on the basis of chemical fertilizer, the leaf SPAD value showed a gradual upward trend with the increase of microalgae fertilizer application at 40-120 days of seedling age, showing NW3>NW2>NW1>CK, and at 60-80 days of seedling age, the differences between each treatment and CK were significant. This shows that the application of microalgae fertilizer can increase the chlorophyll content of beet leaves to a certain extent. When the application rate of microalgae fertilizer was 9L / hm 2 Under the same conditions, with the reduction of nitrogen fertilizer, the leaf SPAD value showed a downward trend during the 60-120 days of seedling age, showing N1W2>N2W2>N3W2>CK, among which there was no significant difference between the N1W2 and N2W2 treatments, but both were significantly different from CK; when the leaf SPAD values of the above two treatments reached the maximum value at the 100th day of seedling age, they were 5.5% and 5% higher than those of CK, respectively. This shows that appropriate nitrogen reduction combined with microalgae fertilizer can stabilize the chlorophyll content of plants at a higher level.
[0209] The application of microalgae fertilizer can effectively increase the SPAD value of beet leaves, increase the content of leaf photosynthetic pigments, promote the net photosynthetic rate of beet leaves, maintain a relatively high photosynthetic performance of beets during the rapid growth period of leaves, and be beneficial to the accumulation of dry matter mass of root tubers in the late growth period. The root-crown ratio of beets is significantly increased in the late growth period, and ultimately effectively increase the yield and sugar content of beet tubers, thereby achieving increased production and efficiency of beets.
[0210] g. The effects of different fertilizer compositions on nitrogen absorption by sugar beet plants are shown in Table 19.
[0211] Table 19 Effects of different fertilizer combinations on nitrogen content in the aboveground and underground parts of sugar beets (unit: mg / plant)
[0212]
[0213] Nitrogen is very important for plant growth. It is an essential element for the formation of proteins, cell walls, nucleic acids and amino acids. As shown in Table 19, with the advancement of the growth period of beets, the nitrogen content in the aboveground and underground parts of beets gradually increased. Microalgae fertilizer was applied on the basis of chemical fertilizers. With the increase of the application amount of microalgae fertilizer, the nitrogen content in the aboveground and underground parts of beets showed the same gradual increase trend. The specific treatments were NW3>NW2>NW1>CK. At the age of 100 days, the nitrogen content in the aboveground part reached the highest value. The nitrogen content in the aboveground part of beets in NW1, NW2 and NW3 treatments increased by 12.6%, 13.8% and 16.21% respectively compared with CK; the nitrogen content in the underground part increased by 4%, 4.5% and 12.8% respectively compared with CK. It shows that the application of microalgae fertilizer can increase the nitrogen content in the aboveground and underground parts of beets. When the application amount of microalgae fertilizer is 9L / hm 2 Under the same conditions, the nitrogen content of the aboveground and underground parts of beets showed a gradual downward trend as the nitrogen fertilizer was reduced, but they were higher than CK to varying degrees. When the nitrogen content of the aboveground and underground parts of beets reached the highest at 100d and 120d, the N1W2 treatment had the most obvious advantage, which was significantly different from CK. At 120d, the nitrogen content of the underground part of beets was 28% higher than that of CK. This shows that appropriate nitrogen reduction combined with microalgae fertilizer can enhance the nitrogen absorption capacity of beets.
[0214] The nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria in the microalgae fertilizer effectively increases the nitrogen content of the above-ground and underground parts of the plants by fixing nitrogen in the atmosphere and soil. At the same time, the photosynthetic green algae, which accounts for 40% of the microalgae fertilizer, can form an internal and external symbiotic relationship with the plant roots, improving the nitrogen utilization efficiency of the plant roots.
[0215] h. Effect of microalgae fertilizer application on sugar beet root hair structure
[0216] The structure of root hairs of sugar beets in N1W2 test group and CK control test group was observed when sugar beets entered the rapid leaf growth period at 60 days old.
[0217] Effects of microalgae fertilizer application on the root hair structure of sugar beet Figures 15-16 As shown. Fig.15 Microscopic structure of beet root hairs for the application of microalgae fertilizer; Fig.16 This is a microscopic picture of the root hairs of beets without the application of microalgae fertilizer.
[0218] from Fig.15 and 16 The results of the effects of different microalgae fertilizers on the root hair structure of sugar beet showed that the application of microalgae fertilizer was effective when sugar beet entered the rapid growth period of leaf clusters (seedling age 60 days) ( Fig.15 ), the presence of a green material covering layer can be clearly observed around the root hairs. This covering layer is formed by the active cells of green algae attached to the root hairs and the surface of the beet root hairs to form an external symbiotic relationship. The nutrients produced by the microalgae during the growth process can be directly absorbed and utilized by the beet root system, which is beneficial to the growth and development of the beet. Fig.16 ) were not observed to have active microalgae cells attached around the root hairs of beets.
[0219] (6) Correlation analysis between different fertilizer combinations and sugar beet yield and quality
[0220] a. Correlation analysis between soil characteristic indexes and sugar beet yield and quality Fig.17 shown.
[0221] from Fig.17 The results showed that beet yield was significantly positively correlated with urease, catalase, and alkaline nitrogen. 2 The value was between 0.96 and 0.82, and was positively correlated with sucrase and pH value, but it did not reach a significant level. 2 was between 0.75 and 0.34, and was significantly negatively correlated with polyphenol oxidase; the sugar content of beets was significantly positively correlated with alkaline nitrogen, R 2 was 0.81, and was positively correlated with urease, sucrase, catalase, and pH value, but did not reach a significant level. 2 The value of R was between 0.58 and 0.30, and was negatively correlated with polyphenol oxidase but did not reach a significant level. The sugar yield of sugar beet was significantly positively correlated with urease, catalase, and alkaline nitrogen. 2 was between 0.87 and 0.76; it was positively correlated with sucrase and pH value but did not reach a significant level. 2 It was between 0.68 and 0.34, and was significantly negatively correlated with polyphenol oxidase. In summary, the application of chemical fertilizers combined with microalgae fertilizers significantly improved the yield and quality of sugar beets, and had a significant effect on the enhancement of urease and catalase activities and the increase of soil alkaline nitrogen content.
[0222] b. Analysis of correlation between sugar beet physiological characteristics and sugar beet yield and quality Fig.18 .
[0223] like Fig.18 As shown in the figure, beet yield was significantly positively correlated with plant height, leaf number, fresh weight, dry matter accumulation, root-shoot ratio, SPAD value, and net photosynthetic rate. 2 was between 0.97 and 0.84; it was positively correlated with the nitrogen content of sugar beet but did not reach a significant level. 2 is 0.72; sugar content of beet is significantly positively correlated with leaf number and dry matter accumulation, R 2 The value was 0.83-0.80, and was positively correlated with plant height, fresh weight, root-to-shoot ratio, SPAD value, net photosynthetic rate, and nitrogen content, but did not reach a significant level. 2 The sugar yield of sugar beet was significantly positively correlated with plant height, leaf number, fresh weight, dry matter accumulation, root-shoot ratio, SPAD value, and net photosynthetic rate. 2 The values were between 0.96 and 0.87, and were positively correlated with the nitrogen content index but did not reach a significant level. 2 The above analysis shows that the application of microalgae fertilizer combined with chemical fertilizer can significantly increase sugar beet yield and sugar production, and has a significant impact on sugar beet plant height, leaf number, fresh weight, dry matter accumulation, root-to-crown ratio, SPAD value, and net photosynthetic rate.

[0228] The economic benefits of sugar beets directly affect the income increase of growers and enterprises and the sustainable development of the industry. As shown in Table 20, the total output value of sugar beets treated with microalgae fertilizer and microalgae fertilizer with reduced nitrogen was significantly higher than that of CK, and the economic benefits increased by 3976.83 to 1579.69 yuan / hm2 compared with CK. 2 From the perspective of maximizing economic benefits, the total output value of N1W2 treatment was the highest, reaching 40878.90 yuan / hm 2 After deducting the cost, the net profit is the highest among all treatments, and the net profit can be 13850.9 yuan / hm 2 , an increase of 3948.83 yuan / hm2 compared with CK2 , which has application and promotion value in sugar beet production.
