Abstract:Aiming to investigate the effects of different CO2 fertilization methods on photosynthesis and yield of grapes in facilities, the Eurasian grape variety ‘Flame seedless’ was used as the experimental object, combined with aerated irrigation technology and CO2 injection system, a closed artificial chamber was used to set up three different CO2 fertilization methods: CO2 aerated irrigation fertilization (combined with underground drip irrigation pipeline CO2 application, IW), CO2 traditional fertilization (using chemical reaction bag CO2 application, TW), and no fertilization (blank control group, CK). The photosynthetic pigment content of grape leaves, photosynthetic physiological characteristics, leaf enzyme activity, and fruit yield under different CO2 fertilization methods were measured. The results showed that within the same irrigation cycle, both CO2 fertilization methods significantly increased the photosynthetic pigment content, ratio of chlorophyll a content to chlorophyll b content (chlorophyll a/b), net photosynthetic rate, and water use efficiency of greenhouse grape leaves. Among them, the efficiency of CO2 aerated irrigation fertilization treatment was significantly higher than that of traditional fertilization treatment. CO2 aerated irrigation and fertilization treatment significantly reduced stomatal conductance and transpiration rate within the same irrigation cycle. The light saturation point and maximum net photosynthetic rate of grapes treated with CO2 aerated irrigation and fertilization were 18.4% and 21.0% higher than those of the CK control, respectively, while the light compensation point was decreased by 13.3%. In addition, CO2 aerated irrigation and fertilization treatment significantly increased leaf CO2 saturation point, CO2 compensation point, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD) and ribulose diphosphate carboxylase (Rubisco) enzyme activities, and the highest grape yield was 13875.61kg/hm2. In summary, the CO2 aerated irrigation and fertilization method significantly improved the photosynthetic pigment content and photosynthetic performance of greenhouse grape leaves, improved grape yield and quality, and had the best effect. This research result can provide a certain theoretical basis for the application of CO2 fertilization technology in future facility grape production.
