Abstract
Lushu No.8 was used to study the effects of potassium application period on the plant traits and yield of sweet potatoes.The results showed that applying potassium as basal dressing or top cover fertilizer promoted the basal stem growth and increased branch number,fresh weight,the percentage of big storage root,and storage root yield.Compared with the control,applying all potassium once as basal dressing increased the yield by 11.93%,half potassium as basal dressing and top cover fertilizer respectively,yield increased by 10.53%,and all potassium once as top cover fertilizer,yield increased by 9.07%.The results also showed that applying potassium as top-growth peak fertilizer increased the chlorophyll content during the later period and the percentage of medium sweet potatoes,but decreased the yield gain and dry-slice-yielding rate.Considering the potassium efficiency for the production of storage roots and convenience of fertilization in different treatments,applying potassium once as basal dressing was suitable.
