    Notes: The effects of varying nitrogen supply on canopy leaf area, response of leaf net photosynthesis (An) to quantum flux density (Q), and fruit yields of kiwifruit vines (Actinidia deliciosa var. deliciosa) were examined in a two-year field experiment. Vines were grown with 0, 250 or 750 kg N ha−1 year−1. The responses to nitrogen supply were compared with responses to shade, to examine the impact of reduced carbon assimilation on canopy leaf area and fruit yields. Nitrogen supply did not affect significantly any of the measured variables during the first season of the experiment. In the second season, canopy leaf area was reduced significantly where nitrogen supply was limited. The quantum efficiency of photosynthesis (φq) increased from 0. 03 mol CO2 mol−1 Q soon after leaf emergence to more than 0. 05 mol CO2 mol−1 Q during the middle of the growing season. The quantum saturated rate of An (Asat) also increased during the season, from 7–10 μmol CO2 m−2 s−1 soon after leaf emergence, to 15–20 (μmol CO2 m−2 s−1 during the middle of the growing season. φq and Asat increased significantly with nitrogen supply at all measurement times during the second season. For vines with high nitrogen, fruit yields in both seasons were similar, averaging 3. 05 kg m−2. Fruit yields in the second season were reduced significantly where nitrogen supply was limited, due to reduced fruit numbers. The relative effects of reduced leaf area and reduced leaf photosynthesis for carbon assimilation by nitrogen deficient vines were examined using a mathematical model of canopy photosynthesis for kiwifruit vines. Simulations of canopy photosynthesis indicated that effects on leaf area and on leaf photosynthesis were of similar importance in the overall effects of nitrogen deficiency on carbon assimilation. The effects of nitrogen supply on fruit numbers (i. e. flower development) preceded the measured effects on carbon assimilation, indicating that the nitrogen supply affected carbon partitioning to reserves in the first season.

    Seasonal changes in photosynthetic capacity of leaves of kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa) vines (1991)

    Notes: The seasonal trend of photosynthetic capacity of leaves of kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa var. deliciosa) vines growing in the field was examined, by measuring the response of net photosynthesis (A) to irradiance (PAR) at monthly intervals for leaves that emerged at different stages of the growing season. A climate controlled minicuvette system was used, to ensure constant environmental conditions, apart from the controlled changes in leaf irradiance. Responses of A to irradiance were described using asymptotic exponential curves, providing estimates of the radiation saturated rate of A (Asat), and the reponse of A to increasing incident PAR at low PAR levels (ϕi). The change in photosynthetic capacity with leaf age was similar for leaves emerging 1, 2, 3 or 4 months after bud burst. At 1 month after leaf emergence, when leaves were fully expanded, Asat was 9–11 μmol CO2 m−2 s−1. Maximum photosynthetic capacity was not attained until 3–5 months after leaf emergence, when Asat was 16–17 μmol CO2 m−2 s−1. The increasing photosynthetic capacity during 3–5 months after leaf emergence was closely related to concomitant changes in leaf N and chlorophyll contents. The possibility that N import to the leaf was a significant factor limiting the development of photosynthetic capacity is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract  For advanced stage residual or recurrent paediatric soft tissue sarcomas in the head and neck area, the AMORE protocol was developed in our hospital. It consists of Ablative surgery, afterloading brachytherapy, using a MOulage technique and REconstructive surgery in 1 week. The reconstructive surgical component of this treatment regimen was reviewed. Between January 1993 and November 1999, 18 children with soft tissue sarcomas in the head and neck area were treated according to the AMORE protocol. The median follow-up was 31.5 months (range 2 months to 6.5 years). For reconstruction, a free vascularized muscle transfer was performed in 12 patients and a pedicled muscle transposition in six patients. The surgical reconstruction was successful in all but one patient and in 16 of 18 patients, healing was uneventful. Since the introduction of this multidisciplinary approach in the treatment of paediatric soft tissue sarcomas in the head and neck region, the results have been promising. The immediate reconstruction of an irradiated, contaminated wound bed with uncompromised, well-vascularized muscle tissue has, in general, resulted in excellent wound healing. The treatment was undertaken in a limited amount of time and resulted in an acceptable morbidity.

    Notes: Abstract The development and effects of nitrogen (N) deficiency in kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa ‘Hayward’) vines planted at three densities (25.0, 12.5 and 8.33 m2 vine−1) were examined in a long term (1982 to 1989) field experiment in which N was applied at rates from 0 to 200 kg N ha−1 year−1. The rate of applied N significantly affected leaf N concentrations every year from 1985 onwards, and the average leaf N concentrations declined throughout the experiment. Fruit N concentrations varied significantly with the level of applied N as early as 1986. The average fruit N concentrations varied strongly between years, and were inversely proportional to the fruit number (per m2), indicating that, after fruit set, growth of individual fruit was relatively insensitive to the vine N status. Effects of N supply on fruit yields resulted mostly from changes in fruit number (per m2). For vines planted at the high density, fruit yields responded significantly to the level of applied N each season from 1986 onwards. In any year, maximum fruit yields for vines planted at the high density were associated with leaf N concentrations (20 weeks after bud burst) of at least 1.8 mmol g−1. For vines planted at low density, significant yield responses to the level of applied N were not recorded until 1988, and maximum yields in that year were associated with leaf N concentrations of at least 1.4 mmol g−1. The delayed expression of effects of N deficiency on fruit yields for vines planted at low density appeared to follow a shift in partitioning of resources in favour of fruit growth. This shift in partitioning did not appear to be sustainable, and by 1989 the fruit yield response to applied N continued to the highest N level tested. In that year, the leaf N concentration associated with maximum yield was 1.8 mmol g−1, the same as that recorded throughout the experiment for the vines planted at high density. In the last two seasons of the experiment, leaf necrosis developed extensively on vines receiving less than the highest rate of N. This necrosis appeared to be premature senescence resulting from N deficiency. Leaf chloride (Cl) concentrations increased significantly with increasing severity of N deficiency, but were never more than those associated with Cl toxicity. While N supply significantly affected fruit firmness immediately post-harvest, there were no significant effects on fruit firmness after 12–20 weeks storage.

    Notes: Abstract The effects of K fertiliser (160 kg ha-1) applied with Cl- or SO4 2- as the accompanying anion on the K nutrition of kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa var. deliciosa) were assessed in a field experiment, using vines with varying degrees of K deficiency. Leaf K concentrations in spring were significantly higher for vines receiving KCl, compared to those receiving K2SO4. This effect did not interact significantly with the degree of K deficiency, and persisted for about 6 weeks. Subsequently there was no significant difference between the leaf K concentrations for the vines receiving KCl or K2SO4. Applying K as KCl increased the leaf Cl concentration, especially in spring, while applying K as K2SO4 had no significant effect on the leaf S concentration at that time. These results implied a greater requirement for organic acid anions for K+ uptake from K2SO4 than from KCl, and the importance of organic acid anions for K+ uptake from different sources of K fertiliser is discussed. This transient effect of the accompanying anion on leaf K status was associated with large effects on flowering, and fruit yields were about 28% higher for plants receiving KCl rather than K2SO4. The effects on growth and tissue nutrient composition of varying the concentrations of Cl-, NO3 -, SO4 2- and H2PO4 - around the roots of kiwifruit vines were examined in a solution culture experiment. For H2PO4 -, plant growth was very similar over a wide range of rates of addition. For the other anions, the range between deficiency and ‘toxicity’ was clearly delineated. For Cl- and NO3 -, toxicity was associated with high tissue concentrations of Cl and N, respectively, and was consistent with competition for uptake between Cl- and NO3 -. However, for SO4 2-, toxicity was associated with only a small increase in the tissue S concentration relative to that associated with maximum growth, and appeared to result more from effects on uptake of other anions and cations rather than from direct effects of high tissue S concentrations. It is concluded that the sensitivity of kiwifruit to the anion accompanying K+ in fertiliser may be related to the unusually high requirement for Cl previously reported for this species.

    Notes: Summary In two field experiments sown in 1982 to test the effect of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizas (VAM) on growth and phosphorus nutrition of (i) spring wheat and spring barley, (ii) winter wheat and winter barley, we measured the concentrations of the major cation (K+, Ca2+, Mg2+ and Na+) and anions (Cl−, SO4 2−, H2PO4 − and NO3 −) in shoot tissue. In all cases the sum of the anion concentrations (ΣA) was increased strongly by mycorrhizal infection but not by P additions, confirming earlier observations2 on spring wheat. The concentration of total cations (ΣA) was generally reduced by P additions, hence P and VAM both reduced the cation excess (ΣC−ΣA) but by different mechanisms. These results suggest that increased uptake of anions by plants with VAM may be a general phenomenom which would have important implications for the elemental composition of crops. The effect may also be manifested by other types of mycorrhizal association.

    Notes: Abstract Two experiments examined options for reducing the inputs of P and K fertilizers for hybrid squash (Cucurbita maxima L.) at Pukekohe, New Zealand. The first experiment examined the effects of elevating the NaHCO3-soluble P from 32 to 130 mg kg−1 and the exchangeable K from 140 to 350 mg kg−1 within strips from 0 to 0.75 m around rows of hybrid squash planted 1.5 m apart. From both P and K, crop yield increased as the width of the fertilized strip was increased up to 0.25 m, while wider fertilized strips had no further effect. These results followed similar effects on plant dry matter and tissue P or K concentration during early growth, and are explained in terms of the P and K accumulation by the crop, the decline during growth of the sensitivity of the crop to soil P and K fertility associated with declining rates of P and K uptake per unit length of root. Implications for fertilizer management for hybrid squash are also discussed. The second experiment compared the effects of partially acidulated phosphate rock and triple-superphosphate on soil P fertility, growth and yield of hybrid squash. Partially acidulated phosphate rock had smaller effects than those of triple-superphosphate on NaHCO3-soluble P levels in the soil, plant dry weight and tissue P concentration soon after emergence, and subsequently crop yield. On average, partially acidulated phosphate rock increased crop yield by about 70% of that following the application of the same quantity of P as triple-superphosphate. This lower effectiveness of partially acidulated phosphate rock for hybrid squash is explained in terms of its lower solubility and hence smaller effect on NaHCO3-soluble P in the soil during early growth, when the crop is most sensitive to soil P fertility.
