Effect of Root Zone Temperature on Accumulation of Molybdenum and Nitrogen Metabolism in Potato Plants

Abstract: Changes in root temperature caused by the application of plastic covers were studied in relation to the uptake and content of molybdenum (Mo) in the different organs of potato (Solanum tuberosum L. var. Spunta) plants (roots, tubers, stems, and leaves) and in relation to nitrogen (N) metabolism. For the semi-forcing technique of mulching, four different covers were used: T 1 (transparent polyethylene), T 2 (white polyethylene), T 3 (coextruded black and white polyethylene), and T 4 (black polythylene).

“…1). Similar results were also reported for potato (Baghour et al 2001(Baghour et al , 2002a(Baghour et al , 2002b(Baghour et al , 2002c(Baghour et al , 2003, Brassica napus (Ye et al 2006) and tropical cucurbitaceous plants (Zhang et al 2008): within the RZT range of 20-27 C, the total biomass increased in plants, while outside this range the dry weight fell. Effect of low RZT has been previously emphasized; Engels and Marschner (1990) found that low root temperatures not only delayed root growth but also reduced the shoot growth of corn plants.…”

“…Baghour and co-workers demonstrated that 23-27 C soil temperature was optimum for the uptake of most essential and some non-essential elements such as aluminum (Al), As, barium (Ba), Cd, nickel (Ni) and lead (Pb) (Baghour et al 2001(Baghour et al , 2002a(Baghour et al , 2002b(Baghour et al , 2002c(Baghour et al , 2003. These studies also showed that RZT < 20 C, considered sub-optimal for most plants (Zhang et al 2008;Adebooye et al 2010), exacerbates growth as well as nutrient uptake.…”

“…Among the soil factors that influence root growth, temperature is one of the most important due to its strong effect on nutrient uptake and plant growth (Baghour et al, 2003). In this context, one of the main benefits associated with the use of plastic mulches is a higher root zone temperature (Lamont, 2005), which has been effective in increasing the dry matter of roots in broccoli plants (Brassica oleracea L.) (Díaz-Pérez, 2009) and root growth and the accumulated dry matter of the shoots in black currants (Ribes nigrum L.) (Larsson and Jensen, 1996).…”

“…The trend in P and K uptake was similar to between both temperature conditions, which mean a constant increase from 4 to 16 WAT and a sharply decrease at late stage, although K uptake in optimal was temporarily declined at 8 to 12 WAT. High temperature affects the rates of uptake of mineral nutrients (Tindall et al, 1990;Baghour et al, 2002;Baghour et al, 2003). In this study, however, the concentrations and uptake of mineral nutrients in whole plants (leaf, stem and fruit) were little affected by temperature.…”
