Abstract
Asparagus (Asparagus officinalis L.) is a perennial plant of the Asparagaceae family, and conventional production in Japan involves harvesting spears annually by cultivating the same plant for 10-20 years.
Plant senescence results in a yield reduction after a certain number of years of cultivation.
Previous studies reported that glycine betaine improves photosynthesis and increases the yields of various crops.
However, the effect of successive applications of glycine betaine on perennial plants over several years has not yet been investigated.
In this study, we investigated the effect of the application of glycine betaine material on the growth of 7- to 9-year-old plants and the yield of 8- to 10-year-old plants in the long term harvest production system in a semi-forcing culture using ‘UC157’ to suppress yield reduction due to plant senescence in asparagus.
Glycine betaine material increased the growth and yield of asparagus regardless of the number of years since glycine betaine material was considered to improve photosynthesis in asparagus.
However, there were no significant differences in asparagus growth or yield.
Future research should focus on clarifying the underlying mechanism for the increase in growth and yield of asparagus which is a perennial plant caused by glycine betaine material, and the concentration and frequency of its application are required to suppress yield reduction due to plant senescence.
