Abstract

The soil moisture has an important effect on growth and development of highbush blueberry (HB), mainly because the root system, devoid of root hairs, is superficial. Moreover, the texture and organic matter content of Korean soil is different from the main producing counties, such as USA and Canada. To facilitate the growth and development of HB and long-term maintenance of productivity, the research related to soil moisture condition in Korea should be the priority. This study was performed to investigate the growth properties of the HB in various soil moisture conditions in order to determine the irrigation trigger point and optimum soil water potential. The texture of soil used in this experiment was loam. For the experiments, the soil was mixed with peatmoss at a rates 30% (v/v). Irrigation was scheduled at -3, -4, -5, -8, -15 and -22 kPa soil water potential then investigated leaf macronutrient, bush growth, and fruit properties. The leaf K content of HB showed the same trend in the soil water potential, but Leaf P and Mg content was highest in -5 and -22 kPa, respectively. The productivity and growth amount of HB showed the peak at the range of -4~-8 kPa as normal distribution pattern, and greatly decreased at above -15 kPa. Total dry weight and Cane diameter were highest at -4 kPa, plant width, fruit weight and yield were highest at -5 kPa, and plant height, cane number and shoot tension were highest at -8 kPa. Soluble solids content showed same trend in the soil water potential, but titratable acidity, anthocyanins and total polyphenols were not significantly different. Therefore, the optimal soil water potential for the development and a maximum production of HB were a range of -4~-8 kPa, and the recommended ideal irrigation trigger point was within -15 kPa.

하이부시 블루베리는 근모가 없는 섬유질 뿌리와 천근적 분포 특성으로 인하여 생장과 생육에 대한 토양수분의 영향이 매우 크다. 특히 국내 토양의 토성과 유기물 함량은 미국과 캐나다 같은 주산지와 크게 다르다. 따라서 안정된 생육과 지속적인 생산성을 확보하기 위해서는 토양수분에 대한 연구가 선행되어야 한다. 따라서 본 연구는, 국내 토양조건에서, 북부형 하이부시 블루베리의 토양수분함량에 따른 생장특성을 구명함으로써 블루베리의 안정생육을 위한 적정 관수점과 최적 토양수분함량을 확립하고자 수행하였다. 본 시험에 사용된 토양의 토성은 양토 (Loam)이며, 피트모스를 30% (v/v)혼합 하였다. 토양수분은 -3,-4,-5,-8,-15 그리고 -22 kPa을 관수개시점으로 설정하여 블루베리의 양분흡수, 수체생장 그리고 과실특성을 조사하였다. 엽중 칼리함량은 토양수분포텐셜의 증가와 같은 경향이었으나, 인산과 마그네슘농도 각각 -5, -22 kPa에서 가장 높았다. 수체생장과 수량은 -4~-8 kPa을 정점으로 정규분포패턴을 나타냈으며, -15 kPa 이상에서는 생육이 크게 하락하였다. 줄기경경과 건물중은 -4 kPa에서, 수폭과 과실비대 및 과실생산량은 -5 kPa에서, 수고와 줄기개수 그리고 줄기장력은 -8 kPa에서 가장 높았다. 과실의 품질 중 당함량은 토양수분포텐셜이 증가할수록 높아지는 경향을 나타냈으나, 산함량, 안토시아닌 그리고 총 페놀함량은 차이가 없었다. 따라서 블루베리의 수체생장과 과실생산을 위한 최적의 토양수분포텐셜은 -4~-8 kPa이었으며, 이를 위한 관수 개시점은 -15 kPa 이하로 사료된다.
