Abstract

This paper studies the effects of the Juglone on improving the photosynthesis of the peony growing in the summer field, and alleviating the photosynthesis inhibition in the two months of July and August, by using the 0.06mg/L Juglone extracted from the C.cathayensis exocarp, one kind of the forestry waste, to insufflate the peony leaf surface.The research results show that ,by comparing the peony leaf after procession with the control group, the Pn summit values of the photosynthetic rate improve by 10.5% and 12.8% respectively, and the photosynthesis noon-break is greatly shortened; the stomatal conductance variance of the leaf is not big, but the Ci content decreases significantly; the PSII photochemical efficiency of Fv/Fm reduces by 20% and 26% respectively; ΦPSII decreases by 18.1% and 19.9% respectively;between the time period 10 am and 1 pm, when the sunlight is the most sufficient, the contents of the chlorophyll qP decrease by 10% and 11.6% respectively,and the contents of the NPQ increase by 17.3% and 14.3% respectively. The research results show that Juglone could greatly reduce the summer sunlight harm on the photosynthetic system of the peony leaf chloroplast, and improve the light utilization rate of the peony leaf.
