Abstract
This study was conducted to understand the influence of soil compaction on root growth and nutrient uptake characteristics of the soybean roots grown in two soils with different texture. Tap root elongation was measured on young seedling grown in cores compacted to different bulk densities of 1.2, 1.4 and $1.6/cm^3$ with different soil water retention in laboratory. The soil used were Samgag sandy loam and Baegsan loam soils. The wet and dry weight, total length, average radius and total surface area of roots were measured on soybean plants grown in 1/5000 a Wagner pots compacted to different bulk density of 1.2 and $1.4g/cm^3$. The nutrient uptake of soybean shoot was measured and evaluated with the unit surface area of roots at the 7th, 17th and 27th days after germination. The results were as follows: 1. The tap root elongation rate was faster in the loam soil with low bulk density than in the sandy loam soil with high bulk density. The elongation rates were remarkedly decreased when soil water was lower than the retention of 4 bars in loam soil and that of 1 bars in sandy loam soil. 2. Tap root elongation rate sharply decreased as increased soil strength higher than $2kgf/cm^2$ measured by ELE penetrometer showing curvillinear regression. However, it was low regardless of soil strength when soil water retention was 10 bars in sandy loam soil. 3. From the pot experiment, the total length of roots were longer in loam soil than in sandy loam soil and was longer in the soils with lower bulk density. The average radius of fine roots grown in sandy loam soil was larger than that grown in loam soil. The total surface area of roots was greater in the loam soil with low bulk density than in the sandy loam soil with high bulk density as the total length of roots. 4. The amounts of nutrient uptake by soybean shoots were greater in loam soil primarily due to more production of dry matter than in sandy loam soil. The nitrogen influx rates through the unit surface area were 597 to $753nmoles/day-cm^2$ in loam soil and 222 to $365nmoles/day\;cm^2$ in sandy loam soilshowing higher value in higher bulk density. The potasium influx rates were 99 to $175nmoles/day-cm^2$, and those of phosphate were 26 to $46nmoles/day\;cm^2$. Those of Ca and Mg were 175 to 246 and 163 to $205nmoles/day\;cm^2$. The difference in nutrient influx rates between bulk densities of these elements were lower than that of nitrogen.
토성(土性)이 다른 두 토양(土壤)의 압밀상태(壓密狀態)가 대두(大豆)의 근생장특성(根生長特性)과 양분(養分)의 흡수기능처리(吸收機能差異)를 알아보기 위하여 용적밀도(容積密度)와 수분상태(水分狀態)를 달리한 Core에서의 유근신장(幼根伸長)과 용적밀도(容積密度)를 달리하여 pot재배(栽培)하였을 때 근(根)의 총(總)길이와 표면적(表面積), 근반경(根半徑) 및 양분(養分)의 흡수속도(吸收速度)를 조사(調査)한 결과(結果) 다음과 같다. 1. 대두(大豆)의 유근신장(幼根伸長)은 용적밀도(容積密度)가 낮을수록 빨랐으며 양토(壤土)에서는 토양수분(土壤水分) 상태(狀態)가 - 4bar 이하(以下)에서, 사양토(砂壤土)에서는 - 1bar 이하(以下)에서 급격(急激)히 감소(減少)하였다. 2. 유근(幼根)의 신장(伸長)은 ELE경도계(硬度計) 토양강도(土壤强度) 2.0 이상(以上)에서 급격(急激)히 감소(減少)하였으며, 근신장속도(根伸長速度)와 토양강도간(土壤强度間)에는 2차식(次式)으로 표시(表示)되었다. 그러나 사양토(砂壤土)에서 -10bar이하(以下)의 토양수분상태(土壤水分狀態)에서는 경도(硬度)에 관계(關係)없이 근신장속도(根伸長速度)가 낮았다. 3. pot재배시험(栽培試驗) 결과(結果), 뿌리의 총(總)길이는 용적밀도(容積密度)가 $1.2g/cm^3$인 양토(壤土)에서 가장 길었으며, $1.4g/cm^3$인 사양토(砂壤土)에서 가장 짧았다. 세근(細根)의 평균직경(平均直徑)은 사양토(砂壤土)에서 생육(生育)한 것이 양토(壤土)에서 생육(生育)한 것보다 굵었다. 뿌리의 총표면적(總表面積)은 용적밀도(容積密度)가 낮을수록 넓었으며, 양토(壤土)에서 사양토(砂壤土)보다 넓었다. 4. 양분(養分)의 흡수량(吸收量)은 건물생산(乾物生産)이 많은 양토(壤土)에서 많았다. 단위(單位)뿌리표면적당(表面積當) 흡수속도(吸收速度)는 질소(窒素)가 양토(壤土)에서 $597{\sim}753n\;mole/day{\cdot}cm^2$, 사양토(砂壤土)에서 $222{\sim}365n\;mole/day{\cdot}cm^2$이었으며, 용적밀도(容積密度)가 높은 토양(土壤)에서 높은 값을 보였다. K는 $99{\sim}175n\;mole/day{\cdot}cm^2$ P는 $26{\sim}46n\;mole/day{\cdot}cm^2$이었고, Ca와 Mg는 각각(各各) $175{\sim}230n\;mole/day{\cdot}cm^2$, $163{\sim}205n\;mole/day{\cdot}cm^2$의 범위(範圍)를 보였으며 토양간(土壤間)의 차이(差異)는 질소(窒素)보다 적은 경향(傾向)이었다.
