花期干旱胁迫对小粒咖啡生长、开花和果实品质的影响

Effects of drought stress at flowering stage on growth, flowering and fruit quality of coffee arabica

  • 摘要: 为明确云南春季干旱与咖啡花期重叠对咖啡开花和果实品质的影响,以两年生咖啡树为试验材料,在花期设置不同程度的干旱胁迫处理,包括轻度干旱(LD)(田间持水量的55%~60%)、中度干旱(MD)(田间持水量的40%~45%)、重度干旱(SD)(田间持水量的25%~30%)和正常浇水(CK)(田间持水量的75%~80%)处理. 结果表明,与正常浇水(CK)相比,轻度干旱(LD)处理的开花数、结果数和单株产量等指标无显著差异,而中度干旱(MD)和重度干旱(SD)处理则显著抑制了咖啡植株的生长. 其中,SD处理使咖啡花芽数和开花数分别减少了50%和44%,且MD和SD处理的咖啡鲜果和生豆的横纵径、百粒重、鲜干比和产量均明显降低,生豆化学成分含量也存在差异. 研究表明,花期适度干旱(不低于55%的田间持水量)不会造成咖啡产量和品质的降低,建议以此为标准种植咖啡.

     

    Abstract: Spring drought in Yunnan frequently coincides with the flowering stage of coffee, yet its combined impact on floral development and bean quality remains unclear. Using two-year-old coffea plants, we imposed four irrigation regimes during anthesis: light drought (LD, 55–60% of field capacity), moderate drought (MD, 40%–45%), severe drought (SD, 25%–30%), and a well-watered control (CK, 75%–80%). Compared with CK, LD caused no significant changes in the numbers of flowers and fruits or in yield per plant. In contrast, MD and SD markedly inhibited growth: SD reduced floral bud and open-flower counts by 50% and 44%, respectively. Both MD and SD decreased fresh-fruit and green-bean transverse and longitudinal diameters, hundred-seed weight, fresh-to-dry weight ratio, and overall yield, and they altered the chemical composition of green beans. Collectively, the data indicate that maintaining soil moisture at ≥55% of field capacity during flowering avoids yield and quality losses. We therefore recommend this threshold as a practical irrigation standard for coffee cultivation in regions subject to spring drought.
