Abstract:

Light is a necessary environment factor for plant growth. Revealing the effects of different shading treatments on the active component 10-deacetylbaccatine III(10-DAB),mineral nutrient accumulation and photosynthesis of Taxus madia × T.Yunnanensis ‘Yunman’(YM)seedlings would provide a scientific basis for the comprehensive utilization of YM forest and the construction of forest-grass composite ecosystems. 2-year-old yews of YM seedlings were used as materials,and 5 light intensity conditions(full light,30% shading,50% shading,75% shading,and 95% shading)were set to clarify the response strategy of YM to different light environments. The results showed that shading had a significant effect on the accumulation of 10-DAB in each growth period of YM seedlings(P<0.05). The yield of 10-DAB showed an upward trend from April to October and reached a maximum in October. With the enhancement of shade,the accumulation of mineral elements in each part showed a trend of increasing first and then decreasing. Among them,N and P were the highest under 75% shading treatment,and the contents of mineral nutrition in each part were in the order of leaf > root > stem,K was the highest under 50% shading treatment,and its content was in the order of leaf > stem > root. The photosynthetic pigment content of YM increased significantly under shading(P<0.05),and increased first and then decreased with the increase of shading. Under 75% shading,the photosynthetic pigment content was the highest. The changes in net photosynthetic rate(Pn),stomatal conductance(Gs),and transpiration rate(Tr)were consistent with the photosynthetic pigment content. The intercellular CO2 concentration(Ci)decreased first and then increased,and the indexes(except Ci)were the lowest under 95% shading. In summary,heavy shading inhibited the photosynthesis of YM. Shading intensity can effectively improve 10-DAB yield and mineral nutrient accumulation of YM seedlings(branches and leaves),and 50%-75% shading is suitable for YM seedlings cultivation.
