Abstract:

With pot experiment and complete randomized block design, Jingu 21 was used as material, urea and ZnSO4?7H2O as the fertilizer, the effects of nitrogen and zinc application on root morphology and zinc content in foxtail millet were studied by using four nitrogen fertilizer levels (0, 120, 180 and 240kg/ha), and three zinc fertilizer levels (20, 40 and 80mg/L). The results showed that, under different zinc treatment levels of the same nitrogen level and different nitrogen treatment levels of the same zinc level, seven and 15 days after zinc fertilizer injection, root length, projection area, surface area and root tip number all rose and then declined with the increase of zinc and nitrogen concentration. Compared with single application of zinc fertilizer, increasing nitrogen fertilizer could effectively increase the morphological index of foxtail millet root system, and the values of root forms of N0Zn40 and N120Zn40 treatments were large. The root activity of N120Zn40 treatment increased significantly compared with other treatments at the same nitrogen and zinc levels, and the root-shoot ratio also increased, which showed strong activity. At 15 days after zinc spraying, the zinc content of root increased with the increase of zinc concentration under low nitrogen and medium nitrogen; the zinc content of N120Zn40 treatment increased by 76.00%, 47.22% and 15.43% compared with other treatments with different nitrogen levels at the same zinc level. Therefore, the appropriate proportion of nitrogen and zinc fertilizer dispensing had a good synergistic effect, while nitrogen 120kg/ha and zinc 40mg/L were the best dispensing combination under this test condition.
