摘要: In arid and semiarid regions of northern China, there is an increasing interest in using reduced rate of inorganic fertilizer together with water-saving superabsorbent polymer (SAP) for field crop production. Thus, an efficient management of fertilizer and study of metabolic changes in response to SAP application is important for improved production of corn. 24 undisturbed soil lysimeters (35 cm in diameter and 150 cm in depth) were installed in a field lysimeter facility during 2010, to study yield and physiological mechanisms in corn (Zea mays L.) subjected to application (30 kg ha(-1)) or without application of SAP at different fertilization levels (standard, medium or 75% and low or 50% of conventional fertilization rate). The results show that the corn yield fell by 19.7% under medium and 37.7% under low fertilization; the application of SAP increased it significantly by 80.3%. Although SAP had marginal effect under standard fertilization, plants treated with SAP under reduced fertilization showed a significant decrease in superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX) and glutathione reductase (GR) activities in leaves when compared with control plants. Our results suggest that drought stress as well as fertilizer reduction leads to production of oxygen radicals, which results to oxidative stress in the plant and the application of superabsorbent polymer could conserve soil water and nutrients, making same available for plants to reduce oxidative stress and increase biomass accumulation, especially under reduced fertilization level.
