AZ-B0300 Plant Stress Physiology Observation System


1 Introduction

The living environment of plants is not always suitable, and often suffers from complex and variable adversities of various environmental factors such as high and low temperatures, freezing damage, light, moisture, nutrients, CO2, chemical elements, atmospheric pollution, herbicides and pesticides Coercion. The most intuitive response of plants to environmental stress is in morphology, but it often lags behind physiological responses. Once the damage has been caused, it is difficult to recover. By studying the physiological response of plants to environmental stress, it not only helps to reveal the physiological mechanism of plants adapting to adversity, but also helps to take practical and feasible technical measures in production to improve the resistance of plants or protect plants from harm. Favorable conditions for growth.

Since the 1980s, the emergence of portable photosynthesis measurement systems and phytoecological testing instruments such as chlorophyll fluorometers has provided new research methods for studying the stress physiology of plants and their responses, and has produced a large number of research results. But on the other hand, they all have their own limitations. When the phenomenon of uneven stomatal closure occurs, the Ci calculated by the blade gas exchange measurement system will be overestimated; in addition, the comparison of the leaf photosynthetic rate between different habitats has no direct meaning and is more time-consuming and laborious. Although chlorophyll fluorescence is easy to measure, if the experimental design is not good enough, the results will be difficult to interpret.

2.1 Objective

The chlorophyll fluorescence parameter is the first indicator that needs to be measured in the study of plant stress physiology. The chlorophyll fluorescence reaction is an indicator of plant photochemical reaction and is related to species, seasons, environment, sample conditions and other factors that affect plant physiological functions. Therefore, changes in chlorophyll fluorescence can be measured to reflect the plant's response to environmental stress.

Environmental factors such as precipitation, light, air temperature, and soil moisture in plant growth areas are closely related to the level of plant stress physiological stress. Real-time observation of them can help accurately reflect the dynamic impact of changes in environmental factors on plant stress physiological conditions.

Simultaneous measurement of live leaf gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence on the response of plants to environmental factors stress stress, combined with the simultaneous measurement of environmental factors can provide more meaningful results.

The AZ-B0300 Plant Stress Physiology Observation System can simultaneously measure plant gas exchange parameters, fluorescence parameters and environmental factors, and can be used for stress stress studies on various types of plant environmental factors.

4 Application case

4.1 New method for plant water stress / light drought stress measurement (John Burke 2010)

It has always been difficult to measure the water stress and mild drought stress of C3 and C4 plants with a fluorometer. As early as 2007, Professor John Burke of the Texas Plant Stress Research Laboratory in the United States took cotton as the research object and provided a new method. The modulated fluorometer of the United States OPTIC company was used to measure the leaf samples before and after heat treatment at 40 ° Dark adaptation parameter Fv / Fm '(△ F / Fm') or light adaptation parameter Yield measurement results, found that the measured value can reflect the plant water stress and mild drought stress.

In May 2010, Professor John Burke published new research results again, further verifying the feasibility and scientificity of this new method.

Burke pointed out in the article that both C3 and C4 plants can be measured simply and quickly by this method, and 200-300 plant leaf samples can be measured at one time. This method compares the measurement results of the unstressed control plant and the drought-stressed plant from the day after the irrigation stops, and continues for several days. The results of the study showed that within 24 hours after the irrigation was stopped, the measurement results well reflected the water stress status, which was also verified by other laboratories.
