Abstract

This research was aimed to establish rapid analysis technique for the determination of nitrate ($NO_3{^-}$) concentration in the leaves of paprika, which has key role for the stable vegetative and reproductive growth. Leaf petiole and blade sap of two paprika cultivars ('Raon red' and 'Raon yellow') were used for the determination of $NO_3{^-}$ concentration, separately using rapid detection kit (RQ-flex) and spectroscopy quantification methods. In addition, two paprika cultivars namely, 'Nicole' and 'TP2001' were used to determine the status of $NO_3{^-}$ concentration in leaf of each fruiting group. $NO_3{^-}$ concentration in leaf blade sap and the content in leaf showed significant correlation ($R^2=0.8628$), analysed by RQ-flex and spectroscopy methods, respectively. Furthermore, leaf petiole sap and the content in leaf also showed significant correlation ($R^2=0.6734$) but the relationship was poor compared to leaf blade sap and the leaf content. $NO_3{^-}$ concentration in petiole sap decreased in all the cultivars from early to late fruiting group. The higher concentration in the lower leaves and the continuous decrease towards the upper leaves in the both years were found through the analysis of $NO_3{^-}$ concentration in different leaf position. In addition, daily short-term fluctuation of $NO_3{^-}$ in petiole sap could be rapidly monitored. These results showed that long-term or short-term monitoring by test strip-based rapid analysis technique might be useful tool for the diagnosis of nutritional status for the stable of nutritional management in paprika.

본 연구는 겨울철 파프리카의 안정된 영양생장, 생식생장을 파악하는 방법으로 간이영양진단기기를 이용해 $NO_3{^-}$ 농도를 신속하게 측정하고 영양상태 파악을 위해 실시되었다. 'Raon red', 'Raon yellow' 두 품종을 각각 비대기 단계로 나누어 측정한 결과 엽신의 test strip 분석은 분광광도계를 통한 관행의 방법과 상관성이 인정되었고($R^2=0.8628$), 엽병의 test strip분석은 엽신 즙액 보다는 낮은 상관성을 보이지만 간접적으로 $NO_3{^-}$ 농도 분석에 유용하였다($R^2=0.6734$). 착과 그룹이 높아짐에 따라 해당 부위 엽 내 질산태질소 농도가 낮아지는 경향을 보이고 있으며, 동일 시점의 마디별 엽병 즙액 내 질산태질소 농도 역시 정단부로 갈수록 낮아지는 경향이 확인되었다. 엽병 즙액 내 $NO_3{^-}$ 농도 역시 간이진단기기를 활용하여 신속한 모니터링이 가능하였다. 따라서 간이영양진단기기를 사용해 기존 분석방법보다 효과적으로 농가 현장에서 파프리카의 질소 영양상태를 파악할 수 있었으며, 이를 통해 추후 합리적인 양액공급 및 표준영양범위의 설정이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
