Abstract:

Soybean is sensitive to phosphorus deficiency in whole growth stage. Phosphorus plays an important role in photosynthesis. Our objective is to compare the difference of photosynthetic characteristics in soybean cultivars with different phosphorus efficiencies under different phosphorus levels in Shenyang during 2006–2007. The results showed that the soybean cultivars with high phosphorus efficiency had higher seed yields and higher seed phosphorus efficiency at each of the three phosphorus levels. Under phosphate deficiency condition, the cultivars with high phosphorus efficiency had a higher photosynthesis and CO2 assimilation capacity, as well as higher soluble protein content, lower stomatae restriction and higher yield. The contents of chlorophyll, soluble protein, net photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance and mesophyll conductance all reached the peak at the podding stage, and then descended. Growth rate, Leaf area duration (LAD) and net assimilation rate showed a rapid increase during the podding and grain- filling stages. The soybean cultivars with high phosphorus efficiency had higher net photosynthetic rate and growth indices at both the single plant and population levels, and had a small response to the change of phosphorus concentration. The main reason was that the phosphorus in the plants could be balanced by more absorption of phosphorus under low phosphorus situation, which could ensure a stronger photosynthesis.
