Abstract
This study was carried out to know the effect of light intensity, temperature and $CO_2$ concentration on photosynthesis and transpiration in Hovenia dulcis Thunb. Light compensation point was $2.4\;{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}\;s^{-1}$ and light saturation point was $1033\;{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}\;s^{-1}$. The optimum temperature for photosynthesis was $25^{\circ}C$ at $1000\;{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}\;s^{-1}$ light intensity. $CO_2$ compensation point was 67 vpm and $CO_2$ saturation point was 707 vpm. Transpiration rate was increased to about $2\;mmol\;m^{-2}\;s^{-1}$ with increasing of light intensity to $1750\;{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}\;s^{-1}$ and to above $4\;mmol\;m^{-2}\;s^{-1}$ with increasing of temperature from $18^{\circ}C$ to $36^{\circ}C$. however It was gradually reduced as $CO_2$ concentration increased from 21 vpm to 800 vpm.
본 연구는 헛개나무의 광합성 효율증진을 위한 기상환경 조건을 규명하여 재배적지의 선정과 재배관리에 대한 기초적 자료를 제공하고자 광도와 온도, 그리고 $CO_2$의 농도에 대한 광합성과 증산량을 조사하였다. 광 보상점은 $2.4\;{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}\;s^{-1}$이었고, 포화점은 $1033\;{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}\;s^{-1}$이었다. 광도 $100\;{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}\;s^{-1}$에서 광합성의 최적온도는 $25^{\circ}C$이었다. 이산화탄소 보상점은 67 vpm이었고, 포화점은 707 vpm이었다. 증산량은 광도가 $1750\;{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}\;s^{-1}$까지 그리고 온도가 $18^{\circ}C$에서 $36^{\circ}C$까지 높아질수록 $2\;mmol\;m^{-2}\;s^{-1}$와 $4\;mmol\;m^{-2}\;s^{-1}$정도로 각각 증가하였으나 이산화탄소 농도가 21 vpm에서 800 vpm으로 높아질 때는 감소하는 경향이었다.
