Cu Nutrition

A growth chamber experiment was conducted to assess the Mn and Cu nutrition of canola (Brassica napus L. 'Westar') and whether S nutrition has an impact on the Mn and Cu nutrition of this crop. Three rates of Mn (0, 25, and 50 mg kg−1), three of Cu (0, 5, and 10 mg kg−1) and three rates of S (10, 20, and 30 mg kg−1) were applied in all combinations to canola grown on an organic soil. High Mn:Cu ratios (> 15) led to Cu deficiency, which, at 10 and 20 mg S kg−1, was alleviated by Cu additions. The Mn-induced Cu deficiency was self-corrected at the 30 mg S kg−1 application rate. This was attributed to the alleviation of a Cu × Mo antagonistic effect through addition of S.

A pot experiment was conducted to study the effects of arsenic (As) and sulfur (S) interaction on yield and their accumulation and distribution in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.). The results showed that (1) at the same level of S treatment, application of As significantly decreased rapeseed grain and biomass yield; (2) Application of S significantly increased the grain and biomass yield of rapeseed when As was applied; (3) When As application rate increased, As content significantly increased in different parts of rapeseed, and reached their highest level at<br />120 mg/kg As. Arsenic content from seed were all below 1 mg/kg AS. Addition of S significantly reduced As contents in root and grain of rapeseed.

Buried canola straw underwent 1.6 to 2 times as much decomposition as straw on the soil surface. Decomposition of Brassica napus L. was slightly less than that of B. rapa L. and cultivar effects were small in one year and insignificant in the other. Because treatment effects varied between stems and roots, plant portion likely should be considered in decomposition studies. Key words: canola, straw decomposition, burial, cultivars

Copper nutrition of barley (Hordeum vulgare ’Conquest’), oats (Avena sativa ’Hudson’), wheat (Triticum aestivum ’Neepawa’), flax (Linum usitatissium ’Dufferin’) and canola (Brassica campestris ’Torch’) was studied on a severely Cu-deficient organic soil in a controlled environment growth chamber. The objective of the study was to facilitate identification of Cu-related growth disorders by establishing the critical levels for Cu in plant tissues of the crops listed above. Copper deficiency symptoms were exhibited by all crops when Cu was not applied. Copper concentrations in plant shoots were considered as low when they ranged from 3.0 to 4.9 μg Cu/g plant dry matter (pdm) for wheat, from 2.3 to 3.7 μg Cu/g pdm for barley, from 1.7 to 2.5 μg Cu/g pdm for oats, from 1.7 to 2.7 μg Cu/g pdm for canola and from 2.4 to 3.5 μg Cu/g for flax. The measurements were made at heading for the cereals, pod initiation for canola, and at flower initiation for flax. Concentrations below these ranges were considered deficient and above these ranges sufficient. The order of tolerance to Cu deficiency in the soil was canola>barley>oats>wheat>flax.Key words: Copper nutritional ranges, copper deficiency, mesisol

Crust Strength

Organic amendments at 2.5% of soil weight were applied to three Luvisolic soils in the greenhouse. After five successive crops, soil crust strength as indicated by modulus of rupture measurements was reduced by the amendments. Modulus of rupture values were highly related (R2 = 85.4%) to plant counts of Target rape (Brassica napus L.) in the growth chamber. Modulus of rupture determinations were made independently on oven-dried samples and showed that the effect of soil moisture on crust strength among treatments was negligible. Plant emergence was increased as much as threefold by the amendments. Treatments increased field and available moisture capacities of soils but had little effect on moisture retained at 0.35 and 15.8 bar tensions.
