Physio-Ecological Characteristics of Purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.)

쇠비름(Portulaca oleracea L.)의 생리(生理) 생태적(生態的) 특성(特性)

This experiment was conducted to determine germination ability, life cycle, regrowth ability of Portulaca oleracea L. The newly harvested seeds from P. oleracea flowered before July 15 were able to germinate, but percent germination decreased markedly as the flowering time was later than July 15, showing no germination of seed collected at Sept. 12 which were flowered at August 30, 76.5% of seeds can be germinated in the light as seed stored in room condition for 90 days, but in dark condition, it needed 2 years of seed storage for germination. Low temperature treatment at $2^{\circ}C$ for 5 days enhanced seed germination of P. oleracea in both light and dark conditions. The maximum vagetative growth was observed at 30 to 75 days after seeding. The late seeding time such as July 1 shortened the period of vegetative growth. However, regardless of the seeding times, the first flowering was observed at about 40 days after seeding. Leaf numbers, shoot lengths, fresh and dry weights were greatly affected by the seeding dates, showing that the earlier seedings produced significantly higher shoot length, fresh and dry weight, leaf numbers and branch numbers than those of the late seedings. When all branches were removed on 68 days after seeding, their regrowth ability was 50.3% and cuttaged branches showed 78.1% regrowth as compared to intact plant.

전작지(田作地) 및 비경작지(比耕作地)의 문제잡초(問題雜草)인 쇠비름의 생리(生理) 생태적(生態的) 특성(特性) 구명(究明)을 통(通)하여 얻어진 결과(結果)는 다음과 같다. 1. 갓 생성(生成)된 쇠비름 종자(種子)의 발아(發芽)는 개화(開花)가 늦어짐에 따라 급격(急激)히 감소(減少)하여 8월(月) 이후(以後)에 성숙(成熟)된 종자(種子)는 거의 발아(發芽)하지 않는다. 그러나 종자(種子)를 90일(日) 이상(以上) 상온(常溫)에서 보관(保管)하면 광상태(光狀態)에서 76.5% 발아(發芽)하였으나 암상태(暗狀態)에서는 2년(年) 정도(程度) 상온(常溫)에서 보관(保管)하거나 5일(日) 이상(以上) 저온처리(低溫處理)를 하면 암상태(暗狀態)에서도 발아(發芽)를 할 수 있었다. 2. 쇠비름은 파종시기(播種時期)에 따라 파종(播種) 후(後) 30~7일(日) 경과(經過)하면 최고생육(最高生育)에 도달(到達)하였으며 개화일(開花日)은 파종시기(播種時期)에 크게 관계(關係)없이 파종(播種) 후(後) 약 40 일(日)이면 최초(最初)의 개화(開花)를 보였다. 3. 지상부(地上部)를 파종(播種) 후(後) 68일(日)째에 모두 절단(切斷)하면 50.3%가 재생(再生)되었고, 삽목(揷木)하면 78.1%의 재생력(再生力)을 보였다.
