摘要
Different N sources (NO3-, NH4+, or NH4NO3) at different relative addition rates (RAR) were supplied to cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.), a species sensitive to NH4+ toxicity. For comparison, cucumber plants were also grown at constant concentrations of 1 and 5 mM NH4+ or 5 mM NO3-. The fresh weight of NH4+-fed plants at RAR 0.15 and RAR 0.25 day(-1) was similar to that of NO3--fed plants, while at RAR 0.35 or RAR 0.45 day(-1) growth reduction occurred. When available as a constant concentration, NH4+ decreased plant growth at 5 mM. It is concluded that at low rates of N supply the relative addition rate technique can be used for growing Cucumber plants with NH4+ as sole N source Without deleterious effects.
