Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of plant growth regulators, and in particular relates to a plant growth regulator for inhibiting plant germination and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] wheat( Triticum aestivum L. ) is widely cultivated as a staple food source due to its exceptional adaptability. If wheat encounters continuous rainy weather before harvest at maturity, the kernels will sprout directly on the ear. This sprouting can lead to a sharp decline in wheat yield and quality. The starch and protein-degrading enzymes produced by the kernels during germination deplete storage substances like starch and protein, resulting in a decrease in thousand-kernel weight and negatively impacting wheat processing quality, such as significant reductions in gluten content, sedimentation value, and dough rheological properties. Swelling kernels, kernels with cracked seed coats, kernels with exposed white areas, and kernels with extended radicles or germs resulting from wheat ear sprouting are all considered imperfect kernels. This not only seriously affects kernel morphology, but also increases the proportion of imperfect kernels, leading to a decline in wheat grade. Sprouted kernels consume some of the seed's nutrients, preventing them from germinating or growing into normal seedlings. Furthermore, the seed extracts contain toxic substances and mold that can affect the germination of otherwise normal seeds, severely impacting seed quality.

[0003] During the wheat harvest season, rainy and humid weather can reduce seed dormancy, often leading to spike sprouting. Current methods for combating spike sprouting primarily rely on leveraging wheat's inherent resistance to spike sprouting, spraying the plant growth regulator S-inducer, or implementing field management measures. S-inducer has been widely used in recent years, but its effectiveness alone in inhibiting spike sprouting is not ideal. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a plant growth regulator for inhibiting wheat ear germination before harvest, so as to reduce the occurrence of the problem of wheat grains germinating on the ears due to the inability to harvest normally due to continuous rainy weather during the wheat maturity period.

[0013] The fourth aspect of the present invention provides the use of the plant growth regulator for inhibiting plant germination in regulating endogenous hormones in wheat grains.

[0014] In another preferred embodiment, the endogenous hormones are gibberellins and abscisic acid.

[0015] A fifth aspect of the present invention provides a method for applying the plant growth regulator for inhibiting plant germination, comprising the following steps: According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, after the wheat flowers, the diluted solution of the plant growth regulator for inhibiting plant germination and the diluted solution of its preparation are sprayed on the leaves and ears of the wheat.

[0016] In another preferred embodiment, the spraying amount of the plant sprouting inhibitor is 15 L / mu to 30 L / mu.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The plant growth regulator used in the present invention is compounded with dihydrogibberellin and S-inducible in a molar ratio of 0.2-2:0.1-1, which can reduce the ratio of endogenous hormones gibberellin to abscisic acid in wheat grains, enhance wheat grain dormancy, and significantly reduce the spike germination rate.

[0018] The plant growth regulator for inhibiting wheat ear germination used in the present invention can reduce the α-amylase activity of wheat grains, inhibit the conversion of starch into soluble sugars, and reduce the loss of wheat yield and quality caused by ear germination.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific examples, but they should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, the technical means used in the following examples are conventional means well known to those skilled in the art, and the materials, reagents, etc. used in the following examples, unless otherwise specified, can be obtained from commercial sources.

[0026] The tested wheat varieties were Jimai 22, recorded as JM22, Yannong 1212, recorded as YN1212, gibberellin, recorded as GA, and abscisic acid, recorded as ABA.

[0027] Dihydrogibberellic acid was provided by the Chemical Control Center of the College of Agriculture, China Agricultural University, and S-inducible and 2 wt% gibberellic acid were provided by Sichuan Guoguang Agrochemical Co., Ltd.

[0028] Example 1: Screening of active ingredients of plant growth regulators that inhibit wheat ear germination.

[0029] Experiments were conducted with different concentrations of dihydrogibberellic acid, S-absorbent, and a combination of dihydrogibberellic acid and S-absorbent, and water was used as a control to obtain different plant growth regulators that inhibit plant germination. The specific components are shown in Table 1.

[0030] Table 1 Components of different plant germination inhibitors Note: Clean water can be any one of tap water, well water, and deionized water. Deionized water is used in this embodiment.

[0031] The experiment adopted a split-plot design. Each treatment was repeated three times, and the area of each plot was 4m 2Plant growth regulators listed in Table 1 were sprayed on wheat leaves and ears at a rate of 30 L / mu 30 days after anthesis. Forty ears were collected from each plot 35 days after anthesis and brought indoors. Ten ears were threshed, and 250 seeds were divided into five groups for seed germination testing to determine the germination rate. The remaining 30 ears were subjected to simulated rainfall for 2 hours daily for five days. On the seventh day, ten ears were randomly selected to calculate the whole-ear germination rate and bud length.

[0032] Grain germination rate formula: ; Formula for whole ear germination rate: ; Bud growth formula: .

[0033] The results are shown in Table 2 and Figures 1 to 3 As shown, different plant growth regulators that inhibit plant germination have different degrees of inhibitory effects on ear germination compared with the blank group.

[0034] Table 2 Inhibitory effects of different treatments on wheat spike germination Note: Different lowercase letters after the values indicate differences at the 0.05 significance level.

[0035] Combine Figures 1 to 3 From Table 2, it can be seen that at the same concentration, the inhibitory effect of dihydrogibberellic acid is higher than that of S-absorbent, and the effect of using dihydrogibberellic acid and S-absorbent together is higher than that of using them alone, and the effect is best with the increase of the concentration of dihydrogibberellic acid and S-absorbent, that is, the combined treatment of 1.2mmol / L dihydrogibberellic acid and 0.3mmol / L S-absorbent has the most significant effect on the two wheat varieties. Compared with the blank group, the grain germination rate of Jimai 22 decreased by 25.6%, the whole ear germination rate decreased by 17.07%, and the bud length decreased by 1.76cm. The grain germination rate of Yannong 1212 decreased by 27.6%, the whole ear germination rate decreased by 20.99%, and the bud length decreased by 2.06cm. This shows that the combination of dihydrogibberellic acid and S-absorbent has a significant inhibitory effect on wheat ear germination.

[0036] Example 2: Related physiological and biochemical indicators of plant growth regulators.

[0037] Ten ears of rice were sprayed with equal amounts of plant growth regulators 3, 6, 7, 8, and 9, using water as a blank control. Soluble sugar content, α-amylase activity, and the levels of the plant hormones gibberellins and abscisic acid were measured. α-amylase and soluble sugar content were measured using kits provided by Beijing Shenggong Box, while gibberellins and abscisic acid were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays.

[0038] The results are as follows Figures 4 to 6 As shown in the figure, it can be seen that plant growth regulators 7, 8 and 9 have the effect of reducing the activity of α-amylase and inhibiting the hydrolysis of starch into soluble sugars, and soluble sugars are the energy substances required for wheat grain germination. The germination rate of wheat grains is reduced due to the restriction of the energy substances required for germination; the endogenous hormone GA in wheat grains can promote seed germination, and ABA inhibits seed germination. When the ratio of gibberellin to abscisic acid becomes higher, the dormancy of seeds is enhanced and the germination ability is reduced. The plant growth regulators 7, 8 and 9 in the present invention can inhibit the synthesis of endogenous GA in wheat grains and promote the production of endogenous ABA. The ratio of GA to ABA is significantly lower than that of the clear water control group, indicating that plant growth regulators 7, 8 and 9 can inhibit the germination of wheat ears.

[0043] A solid preparation was prepared using the plant growth regulator 8 for plant germination in Example 1 as an example, and the specific formula is shown in Table 3. The components in Table 3 were mixed, and soluble tablets were obtained by granulation and tableting.
