Relationships among chloroplast pigments concentration and chlorophyllmeter readings in soybean under influence of foliar Magnesium application
The influence of foliar magnesium (Mg)application before flowering on chloroplast pigment indices was investigated in a 2-year field experiment with five soybean cultivars. Acetone extraction of pigments (chlorophyll a and b, total chlorophylls, and carotenoids as well as their ratios) was compared to chlorophyll meter (SPAD-502) readings. The untreated plants showed significant influence of cultivar on pigment concentrations, and pigment ratios were year-dependant. Foliar fertilization with Mg influenced chlorophyll concentration mostly in the year 2004, and carotenoids were not altered by Mg treatment. Cultivar differences prevailed in the next year when Mg treatment was less effective. The interactions among year, cultivar, and Mg application were showed to be significant for a particular parameter. The SPAD-502 readings significantly correlated with pigment concentrations only in the untreated plants in 2005. However, the foliar treatment influenced significantly SPAD readings in 2004, through the interaction with cultivar in once-treated plants and as a single factor in twice-treated plants. Grain yield was under significant positive influence of leaf Mg concentration in both years, and one treatment with Epsom salt was enough for significant grain yield increase.
