Abstract

Allelochemicals, secreting or releasing from root in course of crop growth, were generally regarded as an important factor inducing continuous cropping obstacles. To gain insight into the nature of allelochemicals and root disease incidence, the aqueous exudates collected by XAD-4 resin was identified by GC-MS technique, whereafter the effect of root exudates on cucumber radicle as well as phenolic compounds on F. oxysporum growth was investigated. Results revealed that the main components of root exudates were identified as benzoic acid and its ramification such as vallinic acid, ferulic acid, benzene-propanoic acid and p-hydroxybenzoic acid. Additionally, some long chain fatty acid including hexadecanoic acid, octadecanoic acid, butanedioic acid, tetradecanoic acid were also detected. The acid, neutral and alkaline components of collected exudates showed a certain restrain effect on cucumber radicle elongation, but the restrain effect of acid component was more apparent. Within 42 hours, F. oxysporum growth was stimulated under low concentration of 50 mg·L-1, and restrained when higher than 50 mg·L-1. After 64 hours, however, the tolerant ability to phenolic compounds enhanced and the repress effect was not so evident. Our work contributed much to the mechanism of continuous cucumber cropping in the view of rihzosphere microecology.
