چکیده

اطلاعات اندکی در مورد اثرهای متقابل تنش‏های محیطی بر فیزیولوژی و رشد گیاهان چمنی در اختیار است. همچنین بررسی جداگانۀ یک عامل محیطی بر روی گیاه نمی‌تواند الگوی مناسبی برای شرایط طبیعی باشد. در این پژوهش اثر متقابل سطوح مختلف سایه (0، 50 و 70 درصد) و سطوح خشکی (آبیاری کامل و قطع آبیاری) بر خصوصیات ظاهری بخش هوایی و ریشه‌ای علف گندمی بیابانی (Agropyron desertorum) و فستوکای پابلند (Festuca arundinacea Schreb. ‘Forager’) به‌صورت فاکتوریل در قالب طرح کاملاً تصادفی بررسی شد. تحت سطوح مختلف سایه (50 و 70 درصد) اثر منفی خشکی بر سرعت خشکیدگی، کیفیت ظاهری، نشت یونی و درصد مرگ‌و‌میر ریشه‌های سطحی و عمقی نسبت به نور کامل کاسته شد. از نظر کاربرد زینتی (حفظ کیفیت ظاهری)، تحت شرایط خشکی و نور کامل، گونۀ فستوکای پابلند و تحت تنش خشکی و سایه سطح بالا (70 درصد) گونۀ علف گندمی بیابانی موفق‌تر بود. تحت سایۀ متوسط (50 درصد) و خشکی گونۀ فستوکای پابلند نسبت به علف گندمی بیابانی زمان بیشتری‌ تا خشکیدگی سپری کرد. به نظر می‏رسد اثر متقابل عوامل محیطی از‌جمله شدت نور بر مکانیسم‏های‌ استفاده‌شده در مواجهه با خشکی مؤثر باشند که نیاز به بررسی‏های بیشتری دارد.

چکیده [English]

A few information about the combined effects of different environmental stress on turfgrass physiology and growth is available. Also, a separate study of environmental factors on plant cannot be a suitable model for natural conditions. This study was conducted to investigate the interactive effects of different levels of shade (0, 50, and 70%) and water treatments (well-watered and non-irrigated) on visual quality and root characteristics of wheatgrass (Agropyron deserturum L.) and tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb. ‘Forager’) in a factorial arrangement based on a completely randomized design. Under different levels of shade (50 and 70%), the negative effects of drought stress on the rate of dehydration, visual quality, ion leakage and the mortality rate of surface and deep roots was reduced. According to the ornamental performance, tall fescue had better performance than the wheatgrass under drought stress conditions and full sunlight, but wheatgrass was more successful than tall fescue under drought stress and 70% shade level. Under moderate shade (50%) and drought stress, tall fescue spent more time to dehydrate than wheatgrass. It can be concluded that in water stress conditions, shading could be useful to cope with drought stress, which needs to be further investigated.
