The uptake of different N sources also affects the rhizosphere pH and therefore the bioavallability of soil phosphorus, particularly in alkaline soils. The plant growth, P uptake, and P availability in the rhizosphere of oat （Arena nuda L.） grown in hydroponics and in soil culture were investigated under supply with sole NH4^＋-N, sole NO3-N, or a combination. Sole NO^- -fed oat plants accumulated more biomass than sole NH4^＋ -fed ones. The highest biomass accumulation was observed when N was supplied with both NH^＋ -N and NO3^- -N. Growth of the plant root increased with the proportion of NO3^- in the cultural medium. Better root growth and higher root/shoot ratio were consistently observed in NO3^- fed plants. However, root vigor was the highest when N was supplied with NO3^- ＋NH4^＋. NH4^＋ supply reduced the rhizosphere pH but did not affect P uptake by plants grown in soils with CaHPO4 added as P source. No P deficiency was observed, and plant P concentrations were generally above 2 g kg^-1. P uptake was increased when N was supplied partly or solely as NO3^--N, similarly as biomass accumulation. The results suggested that oat was an NO3-preferring plant, and NO3^- -N was essential for plant growth and the maintenance of root absorption capacity. N supply with NH4^＋ -N did not improve P nutrition, which was most likely due to the absence of P deficiency.展开更多

This study exam-ined the effects of steaming and roasting treat-ments on the enzyme activities, nutritional con-tents, and flour pasting properties of OR kernels. Results showed that a peeling time of 20 s caused 16.13% β-glucan loss, while a peeling time 25 s caused 34.29% β-glucan loss in the kernels. OR kernels with a 20 s peeling treatment demonstrated significantly higher starch levels and kernel whiteness compared with normal oat kernels (P<0.01). It was also found that normal pressure steaming, autoclaved steaming and infrared roasting treatments could exterminate lipase activities in the OR kernels, and provide the OR kernels with significantly lower final viscosities and setback values than normal kernels (P<0.01).展开更多

Using 202 F2 individuals derived from a hybrid between the variety 578 and the landrace Sanfensan, we constructed a genetic linkage map consisting of 22 linkage groups covering 2070.50 c M and including 208 simple sequence repeat(SSR) markers. The minimum distance between adjacent markers was0.01 c M and the average was 9.95 c M. Each linkage group contained 2–22 markers. The largest linkage group covered 174.40 c M and the shortest one covered 36.80 c M, with an average of 94.11 c M. Thirty-six markers(17.3%) showing distorted segregation were distributed across linkage groups LG5 to LG22. This map complements published oat genetic maps and is applicable for quantitative trait locus analysis, gene cloning and molecular marker-assisted selection.展开更多
