Definitions
- the invention relates to the use of betaine to improve the yield of plants.
- the invention relates especially to the use of betaine to improve the yield of plants belonging to the genus Solanum .
- the yield can be improved particularly under stress conditions, i.e. when the conditions are poor due to e.g. low temperatures, drought, high salinity or environmental poisons interfering with the growth.
- the invention also relates to plants of the genus -Solajiuzn treated with betaine and to products obtained from these plants.
- Plants can adapt to some extent to stress conditions. Under these circumstances for example proline and betaine are accumulated in the regions of growth of certain plants.
- the literature of the art discusses the function and meaning of these accumulated products. On the one hand it has been proposed that the products are by-products of stress and thus harmful to the cells, on the other hand it has been estimated that they may protect the cells (Wyn Jones, R.G. and Storey, R. : The Physiology and Biochemistry of Drought Resistance in Plants , Paleg, .G. and Aspinall, D. (Eds.), Academic Press, Sydney, Australia, 1981).
- Zhao et al. (in J. Plant Physiol . 140 (1992) 541 - 543) describe the effect of betaine on the cell membranes of alfalfa.
- Alfalfa seedlings were sprayed with 0.2M glycinebetaine, whereafter the seedlings were uprooted from the substrate, washed free of soil and exposed to temperatures from -10°C to -2"C for one hour. The seedlings were then thawed and planted in moist sand for one week at which time regrowth was apparent on those plants that had survived.
- Glycinebetaine clearly improved the cold stability of alfalfa. The effect was particularly apparent at -6 ⁇ C for the cold treatment. All controls held at -6 ⁇ C for one hour died, whereas 67% of the seedlings treated with glycinebetaine survived.
- the invention thus relates to the exogenous use of betaine to improve the yield of plants belonging to the genus Solarium.
- the invention relates especially to the use of betaine to improve the yield of plants under stress conditions.
- the invention also relates to plants of the genus Solanum treated exogenously with betaine, to the products of the plants, and to their use as such or as raw material for food industry.
- the invention also relates to a method of improving the yield of plants of the genus Solanum, in which method growing plants of the genus Solarium are exogenously treated with betaine.
- the invention further relates to plants of the genus Solanum obtained with the method according to the invention and to the products of these plants.
- Betaine is applied to the plant in either one or several successive treatments.
- the application may be performed for example by spraying together with some other spraying of fertilizers or pesticides, if desired.
- Betaine utilized according to the invention is transported to the plant cells, actively regulates the osmotic balance of the cells and also participates in other processes of cell metabolism. A cell treated with betaine is more viable even when subjected to exogenous stress factors.
- the betaine treatment according to the invention is economically advantageous, and the yield increases in an amount that is economically profitable and significant.
- the treatment does not produce significantly more work since it may be performed together with other sprayings of fertilizers or pesticides, and it does not require new investments in machinery, equipment or space.
- betaine is a non-toxic natural product, which has no detrimental effects on the quality of the yield.
- Betaine is also a stable substance that remains in the plant cells and thereby has a long-standing effect.
- Betaine refers to fully N-methylated amino acids. Betaines are natural products that have an important function in the metabolism of both plants and animals.
- One of the most common betaines is a glycine derivative wherein three methyl groups are attached to the nitrogen atom of the glycine molecule. This betaine compound is usually called betaine, glycinebetaine or trimethylglycine, and its structural formula is presented below: CH,
- betaines are for example alaninebetaine and prolinebetaine, which has been reported to for example prevent perosis in chicks.
- R.G. Wyn Jones and R. Storey describe betaines in detail in The Physiology and Biochemistry of Drought Resistance in Plants (Paleg, L.G. and Aspinall, D. (Eds.), Academic Press, Sydney, Australia, 1981).
- Betaine has a bipolar structure and it contains several chemically reactive methyl groups which it can donate in enzyme-catalyzed reactions. Most organisms can synthesize small amounts of betaine for example for the methyl function, but they cannot react to stress by substantially increasing the production and storage of betaine. Best known organisms accumulating betaine are plants belonging to the Chenopodiaceae family, for example sugar beet, and some microbes and marine invertebrates. The main reason for the betaine accumulation in these organisms is probably that betaine acts as an osmolyte and thus protects the cells from the effects of osmotic stress.
- betaine in these plants and microbes is to increase the osmotic strength of the cells when the conditions require this, for example in case of high salinity or drought, thus preventing water loss.
- betaine is highly compatible with enzymes, and the betaine content in cells and cell organelles may therefore be high without having any detrimental effect on the metabolism.
- Betaine has also been found to have a stabilizing effect on the operation of macromolecules; it improves the heat resistance and ionic tolerance of enzymes and cell membranes. Plants of the genus Solanum do not normally store betaine in their cells.
- Betaine can be recovered for example from sugar beet with chromatographic methods. Betaine is com ⁇ ercially available for example under the trademark of BETAFIN, Cultor Oy, Finnsugar Bioproducts. BETAFIN is crystalline water-free betaine of Finnsugar Bioproducts. Other betaine products, such as betaine monohydrate, betaine hydrochloride and raw betaine liquids, are also commercially available and they can be used for the purposes of the present invention.
- betaine is used exogenously in order to improve the yield of plants belonging to the genus Solanum .
- Betaine is used especially when plants are grown under stress conditions, i.e. when the plants are subjected to periodic or continuous exogenous stress.
- exogenous stress factors include for example drought, humidity, low or high temperatures, high salinity, herbicides, environmental poisons, etc.
- Treating plants subjected to stress conditions exogenously with betaine for example improves the adaptation of the plants to the conditions and maintains their growth potential longer, thereby improving the yield-producing capacity of the plants.
- Betaine is also a stable substance that remains in the plant cells. The positive effect of betaine is thereby long-standing and diminishes only gradually due to dilution caused by the growth.
- Betaine is applied to plants in either one or several successive treatments.
- the amount used varies depending on the plant variety and the phase of growth.
- about 0.1 to 20 kg of betaine can be used per hectare.
- a useful amount is thus for example about 10 kg of betaine per hectare, which corresponds to about 0.01% of the potato biomass.
- a preferable amount is about 2 to 8 kg of betaine per hectare.
- tomato about 0.1 to 30 kg of betaine per hectare can be used.
- a preferable amount is about 1 to 6 kg/ha, particularly about 2.5 kg/ha.
- the amounts given here are only suggestive; the scope of the present invention thus contains all amounts that work in the manner described herein.
- Betaine can easily be spread for example through spraying. Such spraying can be performed together with some other spraying of fertilizers or pesticides, if desired.
- an aqueous solution of betaine is preferably used.
- the time of the treatment according to the invention may vary, and a suitable time is determined preferably separately for each plant. If betaine is applied in a single treatment, the treatment is usually performed at an early stage of growth, for example on plants of about 5 to 20 cm. If betaine is applied in two successive treatments, the second spraying is performed preferably in the beginning of flowering or when stress can be forecasted on the basis of the weather.
- the betaine treatment according to the invention considerably improves the yield of plants belonging to the genus Solanum, for example the amount and quality of the yield.
- the treatment according to the invention is economically advantageous and the increase in the yield is economically profitable and significant.
- the amount of a potato yield has been increased by more than 30%, and for tomato the amount of yield has been as much as doubled with a suitable application rate of betaine. It must also be noted that a cell treated with betaine or proline remains viable even when subjected to exogenous stress factors, such as low temperatures, drought, high salinity, or the like.
- Example 1 The effect of betaine on potato yield was determined under field conditions in two different locations and utilizing four different betaine concentrations: 0 (control), 1.25, 5.0 and 10 kg of betaine per hectare.
- 0 control
- an aqueous solution of betaine was prepared, the solution containing 2 ml/1 of non-ionic wetter, Plus-50 (Ciba Geigy), in addition to the desired betaine content.
- Betaine solution was added in an amount of 640 1/ha at 75% ground cover, and a second application was made during the tuber growing stage.
- the potato cultivar was Russet Burbank. The places of growth varied for climate, in one ( 1 ) the climate was warmer and drier than in the other (2) where frost occurred ' during the growing season.
- tubers were graded into unmarketable (small, green and odd-shaped tubers) and marketable ones, and the weight and number of tubers in the categories were determined.
- the specific gravity of the tubers was determined with the weight in air-weight in water method.
- Statistical analysis of the results was performed by means of variance analysis utilizing Genstat statistical package.
- tuber yield per plant increased from a control value 1.96 kg to 2.42 kg when betaine was used in an amount of 2.5 kg/ha. This was an increase of 23.5% over the control, i.e. about 17 t/ha.
- Table 1 The results are shown in Table 1.
- Betaine was added during the flowering of the plants six weeks after planting.
- the concentration was 0.2M betaine aqueous solution.
- the solution was sprayed at the rate of moisturizing but not soaking the plants (about 20 ml/plant, i.e. 0.47 g/plant).
- the potato cultivar was Alpha.
- the potato was grown in plots of 4.0 x 2.8 m, and the crop was harvested from plots of about 3.0 x 2.1 m.
- the cultivation proceeded according to normal practice, i.e. fertilizers, insecticides and other pesticides were added, the potatoes were earthed up, etc.
- the growing time was normal for the location used.
- the potatoes were harvested 110 days after planting. The results are shown in Table 2.
- Table 2 Table 2
- Betaine was added during the flowering of the plants six weeks after planting.
- the concentration was 0.2M betaine aqueous solution.
- the solution was sprayed at a rate of moisturizing but not soaking the plants (about 20 ml/plant, i.e. about 0.47 g/plant).
- the amount of water added was not essential for the plant's need for water.
- the cultivation proceeded according to normal practice, i.e. fertilizers, insecticides and other pesticides were added, etc.
- the growing time was normal for the location used.
- the results of the tomato cultivation were determined always for ten plants, and the ripe crop was harvested manually during five weeks, beginning eleven weeks after planting. The results are shown in Table 3.
- Tomatoes were planted in single rows 1.5 metres apart. Each row was on a bed ca. 90 cm wide by ca. 20 cm high. The rows were flood irrigated at the frequency of 7 to 14 days during November, 7 to 10 days during December and 5 to 9 days from the start of January until 10 days before harvest.
- the soil was grey clay loam, pH 5.7.
- the trial was laid out as a randomized complete block experiment with 6 blocks, each containing 1 replicate of each treatment.
- Nineteen untreated control plots were strategically located so that each treated plot was no more than 2 plots removed from an untreated control.
- the trial occupied an area 10 rows wide (15 metres) by 88 metres long. This was divided into 11 banks of 10 plots, each 8 metres of row.
- each plot was classified according to continuity of the row of plants. Plots with a gap larger than 0.5 metres in length were discarded. The remaining 91 plots were classified into plots with a continuous plant row and plots with 1 or 2 gaps. There were sufficient plots in the first category for 4 blocks and sufficient in the other two categories for 1 block of each.
- the betaine glycine used was food grade material, Lot No. 64093334 (21/10/94) and it was supplied by Tall Bennet (Rural) P/L.
- the betaine was weighed into 50.0 g and 25.0 g lots and stored in press-capped 250 ml PET containers. Within 1 hour before use, sufficient of these for the application were dissolved in measured volumes of clean water to produce a 200 g/1 solution. These solutions were prepared in 250, 500 or 1000 ml glass-calibrated cylinders and transferred to a 1 litre screw-capped glass bottle. Within 1 hour before use, 25.0 ml of Plus-50 Surfactant (Ciba Geigy) was made up to 250.0 ml with clean water and transferred to a 250 ml screw-capped glass bottle. Depending on the spray volume and swath, 1000, 1500 ml or 2000 ml of spray was prepared for applications 1, 2 and 3 respectively.
- a 1000 ml glass measuring cylinder with 25 ml graduations was used at all applications.
- the required volume of the 200 g/1 betaine solution was placed in the cylinder and it was then approximately half filled with water.
- the required volume of the 10% Spray Plus-50 solution was then added and the cylinder was filled to 1000 ml with water.
- This mixture was then transferred to a clean PET sprayer bottle with the aid of a funnel.
- a further 500 ml of water was added and at application 3 a further 1000 ml.
- These volumes were measured using the original 1000 ml cylinder and transferred to the sprayer bottle using the original funnel.
- the spray was thoroughly mixed by vigorously shaking the PET sprayer bottle. The preparation and application of each spray was accomplished in less than 15 minutes.
- Application 1 was made on day 0, at very early flowering. At this stage, the crop was healthy and no stress or pests were evident.
- Application 2 was made on day 20 at a mid to late flowering stage of the crop, that still was healthy with no considerable signs of stress.
- Application 3 was made on day 41, the crop being at a very late flowering stage and low levels of Big Bud., Helicoverpa spp . , Tetranychus urticae and Nightshade being observed.
- the 2 or 1 metre lengths of row were measured and the boundaries were cut through to the soil surface with a cane knife. With the 2 metre lengths, cut fruit were discarded. With the 1 metre lengths, the cut fruit from the end nearest an end of the plot were discarded. The cut fruit from the other end were included in the sample and counted as half fruit.
- the betaine treatments had no significant effect on the numbers of buds, flowers or fruit at Day 47 or on the numbers of buds and flowers at Day 61. However, at Day 61 the numbers of fruit varied significantly between treatments as a result of a response to the dose but not to the time of betaine application.
- Example 5 This experiment examined whether betaine can be used to protect plants from damage caused by herbicides. The experiment was conducted under field conditions, and metribuzin and cyanazine (Bladex) were used as herbicides and added at a late stage of growing. Five different concentrations of betaine were used: 0 (control), 2, 4, 8 and 12 kg of betaine per hectare.
- an aqueous solution of betaine was prepared, and in addition to the desired betaine content the solution contained 1 ml/1 of non-ionic wetter, Plus-50 (Ciba Geigy). Betaine solution was added in an amount of 6401/ha at 25% ground cover.
- the potato cultivar was Russet Burbank. The location situated at an altitude of 140 m and was periodically plagued by high temperatures and drought. The crop was harvested manually, and the tubers were graded into unmarketable (small, green and diseased tubers) and marketable ones, and the weight and number of tubers in the categories were determined.
- betaine increased the number of tubers.
- the number of tubers per hectare increased the most with the betaine concentration of 8 kg/ha, the increase being 21% over the control. The results are shown in Table 5.
