Adding NaCl at a proper level enhanced rice vegetative growth and increased grain yield and IKUE under low potassium. Addition of higher rate of NaCl had a negative effect on the growth of the K-efficient rice genotype, but did not for the K-inefficient genotype. Under low-K stress, higher NaCl decreased IKUE of the K-efficient rice genotype but increased IKUE for the K-inefficient genotype. At tillering stage and under low-K stress, adding NaCl increased K and Na contents and decreased the ratio of K/Na for both genotypes. At harvesting stage under low-K stress, adding NaCl increased K and Na contents and K/Na ratio for the K-efficient genotype but decreased the K/Na ratio for the K-inefficient genotype. The accumulated Na was mostly deposited in the roots and sheaths. At tillering stage, the K and Na contents and the K/Na ratios in different parts for both genotypes decreased in the following sequence: K+ in sheaths > K+ in blades > K+ in roots; Na+ in roots > Na+ in sheaths > Na+ in blades; and K/Na in sheaths 》 K/Na in roots. The K-efficient genotype had a lower K/Na ratio in roots and sheaths than the K-inefficient genotype under low-K stress. At harvesting stage, K and Na contents in grains were not affected, whereas K/Na ratio in the rice straws was increased for the K-efficient genotype but decreased for the K-inefficient genotype by Na addition. However, this was not the case under K sufficient condition.展开更多

Accordingly, this study quantified the photosynthetic assimilation of inorganic carbon （COe and HCO3-） by plants. The net photosynthetic COa assimilation （PN）, the photosynthetic assimilation of CO2 and bicarbonate （PN＇）, the proportion of increased leaf area （lEA） and the stable carbon isotope composition （δ13C） of Orychophragmus violaceus （Ov） and Brassica juncea （B j） under three bicarbonate levels （5, 10 and 15 mm NaHCO3） were examined to determine the relationship among PN, PN＇ and fLA. PN＇, not PN, changed synchronously with fLA. Moreover, the proportions of exogenous bicarbonate and total bicarbonate （including exogenous bicarbonate and dissolved CO2-generated bicarbonate） utilised by Ov were 2.27 % and 5.28 % at 5 mm bicarbonate, 7.06 % and 13.28 % at 10 mm bicarbonate, and 8.55 % and 17.31% at 15 mm bicarbonate, respectively. Meanwhile, the propor- tions of exogenous bicarbonate and total bicarbonate uti- lised by Bj were 1.77 % and 3.28 % at 5 mm bicarbonate, 2.11% and 3.10 % at 10 mm bicarbonate, and 2.36 % and 3.09 % at 15 mm bicarbonate, respectively. Therefore, the dissolved CO2-generated bicarbonate and exogenous bicarbonate are important sources of inorganic carbon for plants.展开更多

Seventy-two 42-day-old AA broilers were randomly divided into nine treatments, each treatment consisted of four replicate cages of two chickens each. Broilers were fed the following diets： A） CTR： control diet （without any SB and antibiotics）; B） Antibiotic： supply antibiotics （Zinc Bacitracin 40 mg/kg ＋ Colistin Sulfate 8 rng/kg） into the basal diet; C） PSB-100： control diet ＋ 100 mg/kg PSB （powder Sodium Butyrate）; D） PSB-200： control diet ＋ 200 mg/kg PSB; E） PSB-300： control diet ＋ 300 mg/kg PSB; F） CSB-100： control diet ＋ 100 mg/kg CSB （coated Sodium Butyrate）; G） CSB-200： control diet ＋ 200 mg/kg CSB; H） CSB-300： control diet ＋ 300 mg/kg CSB. The birds were housed in 36 wire cages in an environmentally controlled room, fed for ad libitum intake and had free access to water. Feed and excreta samples were collected to determine DM （dry matter）, CP （crude protein）, EE （ether extract）, GE （gross energy） and NDF （neutral detergent fibre）. Results in- dicated that compared with control diet, SB could improve the AMR （apparent metabolic rate） and TMR （true metabolic rate） ofDM, CP, EE, GE and NDF on broilers, and it could replace antibiotics partly, and the effect of CSB was better than that of powder （uncoated） ones.展开更多
