Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Climate change (e.g., global warming, raising CO2 concentration) is predicted to influence on strawberry production. Raising air temperature will cause delayed flower bud differentiation, and raising CO2 concentration will cause promotion of leaf photosynthesis. To resolve this flowering delay and promote the photosynthate translocation to fruits, we applied the local-temperature control to strawberry plants. By cooling treatment to the crown, which is the apical meristem, of strawberry, flower bud differentiation was stably induced. Furthermore, we firstly succeeded to visualize the dynamics of photosynthate translocation to fruits, and also clarified the effects of growth stage and leaf position on translocation. By the local-temperature control based on these translocation results, promotion of photosynthate translocation to the fruits was suggested. It can be considered that these results contribute to the highly profitable production of strawberries under the climate change.
