Germination Responses and Early Growth of Allium thunbergii by Temperature and Shading Level

온도와 차광수준에 따른 산부추의 발아반응 및 초기생육

This study was carried out to determine the effects of environment controls (temperature and shading level) on germination responses and early growth of Allium thunbergii. Germination experiment was performed by pre-treatment (with low temperature and wetting treatments for 0, 20, 40 and 60 days) and temperature controls (5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30). And growth experiment was performed by containers (128 and 200 cavities containers) and shading level (full sunlight (control), 35%, 50% and 75% shading). Germination rate of A. thunbergii seeds were, 20 days of seed pre-treatment, the highest at $10^{\circ}C$ (81.7%) and the more temperature went up, the more germination rate went down. As a result of surveying container and shading treatments, the height, leaf area, leaf length, leaf aspect ratio (L/W) were higher under 50% shading of 128 (24.2cm, $2.76cm^2$, 22.3cm and 223.4, respectively) and 200 (22.6cm, $2.29cm^2$, 19.4cm and 190.5, respectively) cavities container. The root was grown well under full sunlight. Specially, fresh weight of shoot (leaves+stem) was higher under 50% shading of 128 (0.241g) and 200 (0.212g) cavities container. As a result of surveying the whole experiment, A. thunbergii seeds need to pre-treatment (with low temperature and wetting treatments for 20~40 days) for high germination rate. And it is judged better growth and higher yield by maintaining 50% shading of 200 cavities container.

본 연구는 수요가 확대되고 있는 산부추를 대상으로 환경조절(온도, 차광수준)에 따른 산부추의 발아반응과 초기생장을 조사하여 산부추의 생산량 증대와 증식기술 개발에 활용하고자 수행하였다. 발아 실험은 저온습윤 처리기간(0, 20, 40, 60일)과 온도(5, 10, 15, 20, 25, $30^{\circ}C$)를 조절하였고 생육시험은 용기(128구, 200구)와 차광수준(전광(대조구) 및 35%, 50%, 75% 차광)을 달리하여 수행하였다. 발아율은 저온습윤 처리 20일의 $10^{\circ}C$에서 81.7%로 가장 높았으며, 온도가 높아질수록 낮아지는 경향을 보였다. 용기 및 차광을 달리한 조건에서 산부추의 생장특성은 128구와 200구의 50% 차광에서 초장, 엽면적, 엽장, L/W이 각각 24.2cm, $2.76cm^2$, 22.3cm, 223.4와 22.6cm, $2.29cm^2$, 19.4cm, 190.5로 양호한 생장을 보였으며, 뿌리는 전광에서 좋은 생장을 보인것으로 나타났다. 특히, 지상부의 생중량의 경우에는 128구와 200구 모두 50% 차광에서 0.241g과 0.212g로 높았다. 종합해보면 산부추 종자는 발아율 향상을 위해서는 20~40일의 저온습윤 처리가 필요할 것으로 생각되며, 생육 시에는 50% 차광을 유지하는 것이 산부추의 좋은 생장과 생산량 증대에 보다 효과적일 것으로 판단된다.
