[Effects nutrients on the seedlings root hair development and root growth of Poncirus trifoliata under hydroponics condition].

Ahydroponics experiment was conducted to study the effects of nutrients (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, and Mn) deficiency on the length of primary root, the number of lateral roots, and the root hair density, length, and diameter on the primary root and lateral roots of Poncirus trifoliata seedlings. Under the deficiency of each test nutrient, root hair could generate, but was mainly concentrated on the root base and fewer on the root tip. The root hair density on lateral roots was significantly larger than that on primary root, but the root hair length was in adverse.

[Effects of growth regulators and growth media on root-hair development of Poncirus trifoliate].

By using river sand and mixed soil as growth media, and treating with different concentration IBA, ETH, and NAA, this paper studied the root-hair development of Poncirus trifoliate seedlings, and the development cycle and distribution pattern of the root-hairs under phosphorus deficiency in sand culture. The root-hairs had a development cycle of about 4 days, and formed block-shaped and clumped, mainly around root, and with uneven distribution. Sand culture gave rise to the production of more root hairs, with an average of 486.

[Effects of inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on AIPO4 uptake by Poncirus trifoliata].

With sand culture in greenhouse, this paper studied the effects of inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi Glomus mosseae and G. versiforme on the utilization of insoluble phosphate AlPO4 (Al-P) by trifoliate orange (Poncirus trifoliata) seedlings. The results indicated that inoculation with AM fungi notably increased the dry matter, P content, and P absorption rate of P.

[Effects of exogenous ABA and GA3 on sugar concentration in flesh of cara cara navel orange].

The concentration of glucose, fructose, sucrose and total sugar were determined after exogenous ABA and GA3 treatment during young period of fruit and before fruit coloring in flesh of Cara Cara Navel Orange. The results showed that 10 mg x L(-1) ABA treatment improved glucose, fructose and total sugar concentration significantly or very significantly, 50 mg x L(-1) ABA treatment improved sucrose concentration very significantly, but 100 mg x L(-1) ABA treatment reduced glucose concentration very significantly. GA3 treatment of lower and middle concentrations (10, 50 and 250 mg x L(-1)) improved sucrose concentration very significantly, 10 mg x L(-1) GA3 treatment had no remarkable effect on glucose and fructose concentration but improved total sugar concentration very significantly, GA3 treatment of 50, 250 and 500 mg x L(-1) decreased glucose, fructose and total sugar concentration very significantly.

[Effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on reactive oxygen metabolism of Citrus tangerine leaves under water stress].

In a pot experiment, this paper studied the effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Glomus versiforme (Karsten) Berch inoculation on the reactive oxygen metabolism of Citrus tangerine Hort. ex Tanaka leaves under water stress. The results showed that water stress decreased the colonization of G.

Reactive oxygen metabolism in mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal citrus (Poncirus trifoliata) seedlings subjected to water stress.

The effect of the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus, Glomus versiforme, on growth and reactive oxygen metabolism of trifoliate orange (Poncirus trifoliata) seedlings was studied in potted plants under well-watered (WW) and water stressed (WS) conditions. Water stress significantly decreased root colonization. Shoot dry weight, plant height and stem diameter were higher in AM than in non-AM seedlings regardless of the water status.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi influence growth, osmotic adjustment and photosynthesis of citrus under well-watered and water stress conditions.

The influence of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Glomus versiforme on plant growth, osmotic adjustment and photosynthesis of tangerine (Citrus tangerine) were studied in potted culture under well-watered and water stress conditions. Seven-day-old seedlings of tangerine were transferred to pots containing Glomus versiforme or non-AMF. After 97 days, half of the seedlings were subject to water stress and the rest were well-watered for 80 days.

[Effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on plant growth and osmotic adjustment matter content of trifoliate orange seedling under water stress].

The effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi Glomus mosseae on plant growth and osmotic adjustment matter content of trifoliate orange [Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf.] seedlings under water stress were studied in potted culture.
