Abstract

A complete set of chromosome substitution lines with genetic background of Chinese Spring (CS) were used to determine the effects of each chromosome on utilization efficiencies of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). In each line, only one pair of chromosomes in CS genome was substituted by the corresponding one of donor Synthetic 6x. Under normal growth conditions supplied with enough inorganic nutrients, the dry mass per plant and the utilization efficiencies of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) in plants varied largely among CS, Synthetic 6x, and the chromosome substitution lines (1A–7A, 1B–7B, and 1D–7D). Of these, 1A substituted by the chromosome 1A of Synthetic 6x (other lines are the same as 1A hereafter) had the highest plant dry mass and the accumulative amount of N and K, and 1B behaved to have the highest plant accumulative P amount. 1D and 4D had the lowest accumulative P amount and plant dry mass, respectively. 4B showed the lowest plant accumulative N and K. Thus, chromosome 1A of Synthetic 6x contains major genes endowing plant capacities of higher dry mass, accumulative N and K, whereas chromosome 1B of Synthetic 6x carries major genes improving plant accumulative P capacities. The lines, together with CS and the donor, could be classified into three groups including high-efficiency, mid-efficiency, and low-efficiency based on plant dry mass. Regression analysis suggested that there are significantly positive correlations between plant dry mass and the accumulated amount of N, P, and K. Further, there are positively significant correlations among the plant accumulative N amount and some plant traits and physiological parameters, as well as positively significant correlations between the accumulative amount of P and K and the photosynthetic rate (Pn).

Fig.1  The dry mass and accumulated amount of N, P, and K in plants of CSLs, CS, and Synthetic 6x. Chinese Spring (CS) and Synthetic 6x are used as the recipient and donor of chromosomes, respectively. 1A to 7A, 1B to 7B, and 1D to 7D are chromosome substitution lines (CSLs) with just only a single pair of chromosome in CS substituted by the corresponding one of Synthetic 6x. Fig. 1A is the plant dry mass of CS, Synthetic 6x, and CSLs. The data shown are average±standard errors (). Fig. 1B is the plant accumulative N of CSLs, CS, and Synthetic 6x. Fig. 1C is the plant accumulative P of CSLs, CS, and Synthetic 6x. Fig. 1D is the plant accumulative K of CSLs, CS, and Synthetic 6x.
Fig.2  Regression analysis of plant accumulative amount of N, P, and K based on plant dry mass and nutrient utilization traits derived from CSLs, CS, and Synthetic 6x. A, D, and G show the results of regression analyses between plant accumulative N amount and plant dry mass (A), N content (D), and N efficiency (G), respectively. B, E, and H show the results of regression analyses between plant accumulative P amount and plant dry mass (B), P content (E), and P efficiency (H), respectively. C, F, and I show the results of regression analyses between plant accumulative K amount and plant dry mass (C), K content (F), and K efficiency (I), respectively. * and ** indicate that the regression coefficient reaches significant levels of 5% and 1%, respectively.
