摘要: Drought is a widespread abiotic stress that impacts plant growth, productivity and survival. A randomized complete block design pot experiment was conducted to determine the effects of drought on above-ground biomass, root biomass, root/shoot (R/S) and relative leaf chlorophyll content (SPAD) of monoculture and legume-grass mixtures at the Swift Current Research and Development Centre (SCRDC) of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC). The legumes were Canadian milk-vetch (Astragalus canadensis) and white prairie-clover (Dalea candida). The grasses were northern wheatgrass (Elymus lanceolatus) and side-oats grama (Bouteloua curtipendula). Three water treatments (40%, 60% and 80% field capacity) and three cuts were the abiotic factors applied. Except for monoculture side-oats grama, multiple-species forage mixtures were more adaptable than a simple grass-legume mixture or monoculture in a water-limiting environment. The forage mixtures of Canadian milk-vetch and northern wheatgrass tolerated lower moisture levels than the other mixtures. Decreased soil moisture resulted in decreased total biomass and altered biomass allocation to roots resulting in higher R/S ratios in stressed seedlings. The SPAD value of Canadian milk-vetch mixture decreased with water stress, and white prairie-clover+ northern wheatgrass and white prairie-clover+ northern wheatgrass+ Canadian milk-vetch were better adapted to low soil moisture than the monocultures.
