Univ. Zhengzhou China ; 2 Kaifeng County Cotton Production Office Kaifeng China ; 3 Cotton and Oil Crop Research Inst. Henan AAS Zhengzhou China) Abstract : The effects of applying potassium fertilizer at peak bolling stage (28 J uly) on cotton photosynthetic character2 istics and its yield and quality under normal density ( plants/ ha) removing monopodium and low density ( plants/ ha) retaining monopodium were studied under filed condition with random block design. The K application rate was 75 kg/ ha. The results showed that applying potassium fertilizer at middle growing stage retarded leaves aging remained higher LAI at later growing stage significantly increased SPAD value photosynthetic rate PS activity (F V / F O ) actual photochemical efficiency of PS ( PS ) stomata conductance () and significantly decreased non2 photochemical quenching coefficient (NPQ) in stem leaves at later growing stage for both cotton populations. As the re2 sult light energy utilization efficiency of cotton population and leaves at later growing stage were enhanced total bolls and boll weight were increased remarkably cotton lint yield were increased by 819 % 913 % and cotton fibers tenacity was improved.
