Abstract

The study was conducted on the effects of time of defoliation on fruit quality of pear (Pyrus pyrifolia Nakai) trees, managing with low-pesticides, and regrowth of stem cuttings in vitro. Treatments included for 40% of uniform defoliation at early-August, end-August, and early-September, as well as control (no defoliation). Defoliation at early-September and control increased growth of water sprouts as well as concentrations of carbohydrates, total nitrogen, and free sugar in one-year old shoots. Defoliation at early-September and control increased fruit yield and mean fruit weight, with high soluble solids content and fruit surface color of $a^*$ observed for both defoliation at end-August and early-September. Defoliation at early-August increased rates of electrolyte leakage in stem cuttings at $-18^{\circ}C$ in vitro. There were no significantly different for germination rates of the cuttings between the treatments at -18 and $-21^{\circ}C$ in vitro, with the highest germination of the cuttings observed for defoliation at early-September and control at $-27^{\circ}C$. Therefore, orchard management should be performed to be minimized for defoliation of the spur leaves until end-August, causing from precipitation and pests.

본 연구는 저농약 수준으로 관리된 '원황'배(Pyrus pyrifolia Nakai)나무의 시기별 적엽처리가 과실품질과 기내조건에서 삽수의 재생장에 어떠한 영향을 미치는 지를 조사하기 위하여 실시되었다. 시기별 적엽처리는 8월 상순, 8월 하순, 9월 상순 처리와 대조구(무처리)를 포함하였고, 전체 잎에서 40%를 균일하게 적엽처리 하였다. 9월 상순 적엽처리와 대조구에서 도장지 생장이 증가되었고 1년생 가지의 탄수화물과 전질소 그리고 유리당 함량이 가장 높게 관찰되었다. 위의 두 가지 처리에서 과실수량과 평균과중이 가장 높았고, 과실당도와 과피색 $a^*$는 8월 하순과 9월 상순 적엽처리에서 가장 높았다. 8월 상순 적엽처리는 $-18^{\circ}C$의 기내조건에서 삽수의 전해질 누출률이 가장 높았다. 삽수의 발아율은 $-18^{\circ}C$$-21^{\circ}C$의 기내조건에서 적엽처리 간에 차이가 없었고, $-27^{\circ}C$에서는 9월 상순 적엽처리와 대조구에서 삽수의 발아율이 가장 높았다. 이에 따라 강우와 병충해에 의한 과총엽의 낙엽이 8월 하순까지는 최소화 되도록 과원 관리가 이루어져야 할 것으로 판단된다.
