Abstract

Shoot parts of a monocarpic and short day plant Orostachys japonicus have been used as a herbal medicine. The study was carried out to examine the effect of transplanting time (May 30, June 30, July 30) of its seedlings on its growth, morphological characters, and flowering. Two hours night-break treatment at midnight was done since Aug. 25 when samples were taken afterward every 4 weeks. Growth, morphological and flowering related characters were measured from each sample. Plant height and inflorescence length became longer with delayed transplanting time. Number of leaves including bracts and stem diameter were more and thicker when transplanted on June 30 than two other treatments. Leaves and bracts, stem, root, shoot and total dry weights showed nearly the same result to the number of leaves although floret dry weight were increased as transplanting time was delayed. Although florets were most formed when transplanted on June 30, they were not flowered because of the night-break treatment, meaning that the transplanting time had little effect on its growth and anthesis of the florets.

전초로 되고 있는 바위솔은 일임성 식물이다. 본 연구는 정식 시기가 바위솔의 생장 및 개화에 미치는 영향을 추적하여 출하시기를 조절할 수 있는가에 대한 정보를 얻고자 본엽이 15매 정도인 유묘를 5월 30일, 6월 30일, 7월 30일에 정식하여 추대가 일어나는 8월 25일부터 매일 암기중단 처리하면서 8월 25일부터 4주 간격으로 생장과 개화 반응을 조사하였던 바 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 초장과 화서장은 정식시기가 늦어질수록 길어졌던 반면, 엽과 포엽수 및 경직경은 6월 30일 정식시 가장 많거나 굵어지는 경향을 보였다. 2. 소화중은 정식시기가 늦어질수록 많아졌던 반면, 엽과 포엽중, 경중, 근중, 지상부중과 전체건물중은 6월 30일 정식시가장 많았다. 3. 형성되는 소화수는 6월 하순경에 정식할 경우 가장 많았으나, 암기중단 처리로 인하여 정식시기에 관계없이 소화의 개화는 전혀 일어나지 않아 개화개체 비율은 전무하였다.
