Abstract

Turkey oak is among the species that can be used for the
afforestations in the semi-arid and arid regions of Turkey. Understanding how
the Turkey oak responds to drought could contribute to improve stress tolerance
and to the success of afforestation programs of species. In this study, the
response of one-year-old seedlings of Turkey oak (Quercus cerris L.) to the
drought stress was investigated. Under controlled conditions, the seedlings in
the control group were regularly irrigated during the stress experiment, while
drought-stressed seedlings were subjected to drought stress by withholding
irrigation for 30 days. Both control and drought-stress treatment groups were
sampled on days 0, 7, 14, 21 and 30, and their stem xylem water potential,
stomatal conductance and total soluble sugars were determined. In addition, the
volumetric soil moisture content was also determined. As a result, significant
differences were found in xylem water potential, stomatal conductance and total
soluble sugar between the control and drought-stressed seedlings. Drought
stress significantly reduced soil moisture content and consequently, xylem
water potential of the drought-stressed oak seedlings were lower than the
control seedlings. Drought stress decreased stomatal conductance, but
significantly increased accumulations of total soluble sugars.

Kuraklık stresli Quercus cerris fidanlarının fizyolojik ve biyokimyasal özelliklerindeki değişimler

Abstract

Saçlı meşe, ülkemizde kurak ve yarı kurak bölge
ağaçlandırmalarında kullanılabilecek türler arasında yer almaktadır. Saçlı
meşenin kuraklığa nasıl bir tepki verdiğini anlamak, türün stres toleransının
geliştirilmesine ve ağaçlandırma programlarının başarısına katkı sağlayabilir.
Bu çalışmada, 1+0 yaşındaki tüplü saçlı meşe (Quercus cerris L.) fidanlarının
kuraklık stresine tepkisi araştırılmıştır. Kontrollü koşullarda, kuraklık
stresi uygulanan fidanlar bir ay süresince susuz bırakılırken, kontrol
fidanları stres denemesi süresince düzenli olarak sulanmıştır. Kuraklık stres
denemesi süresinde 0, 7, 14, 21 ve 30. günlerde hem kontrol hem de kuraklık
stresi işlem grubundan örneklenen fidanlar üzerinde gövde ksilem su
potansiyeli, stoma iletkenliği ve  toplam
çözünebilir şeker içeriği belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca, hacimsel toprak nem içeriği
tespitleri de yapılmıştır. Sonuç olarak, ksilem su potansiyeli, stoma
iletkenliği ve toplam çözünebilir şekerler bakımından kontrol ve kuraklık
stresli fidanlar arasında önemli farklılıklar belirlenmiştir. Kuraklık stresi
toprak nem içeriğini oldukça düşürmüş ve buna bağlı olarak da stres altındaki
saçlı meşe fidanlarının ksilem su potansiyeli kontrol fidanlarından daha düşük
bulunmuştur. Kuraklık stresi, toplam çözünebilir şeker birikimini arttırırken,
stoma iletkenliğini düşürmüştür.
