본 연구에서는 암석비탈면 등에서 주요 녹화식물로 많이 이용되고 있는 등나무를 대상으로 황폐지 토양조건에서 인위적으로 함수율을 조절하여 등나무의 내건성과 토양수분조건에 따른 생장특성을 시험하였는 바, 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 등나무 묘목은 토양함수율 5% 수준에서 수분 스트레스를 받아 고사하였고, 토양함수율 10% 수준에서는 전 생장기간 동안 생장률에 큰 변화가 없었다. 따라서 본 시험토양에서 토양함수율 5% 수준이 등나무 모목의 위조함수율이며, 토양함수율 10% 수준이 생장에 대한 임계토양수분 범위로서, 등나무는 내건성이 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 2. 묘목의 신장생장, 직경생장, 엽생장, 총 건물생산량 등의 주요 생장요소들을 기준으로 분석한 결과등나무 묘목의 생장은 전반적으로 토양함수율이 높을수록 양호하였으며, 이들 각 생장요소들(Y)은 토양함수율(W)에 대해 Y=a+bW+cW2의 곡선형을 나타내었다. 3. 토양함수율 20 % 이상에서는 생장기간이 길어질수록 묘목 생장량이 뚜렷이 증가하였으며, 각 토양함수율 수준에서 묘목 생장량(Y)은 생장기간(D)에 대해 Y=a+bD+cD2의 곡선형을 나타내었다. 4. 토양함수율 20% 이상에서는 동일한 수분조건에서 근류균 접종구는 대조구에 비해 총 건물생산량을 기준으로 하면 평균 30%의 생장촉진효과가 있었다. 5. 근류균은 토양함수율이 높을수록 접종이 용이하고 근류의 형성량도 많았다.

The objectives of this research were to investigate the drought resistance as well as the growth of Wisteria floribunda seedlings with the soil water conditions. The seedlings for the research were grown in pots with strict water content control on a frame located outdoors. During the experiments, the soil water contents were adjusted to 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 70%. In addition, the effects of Rhizobium inoculation on the growth of seedlings were investigated. The experimental results are summarized as follows: 1. The seedlings in the pots with 5% soil water content withered to death due to the water stress. Withering or any distinct growth was not observed from the seedlings in the 10% soil water content. It can be inferred from these results that about 5% of soil water content is the wilting point of W. floribunda seedlings and about 10% is the critical soil water content of its growth in this experiment soils. Therefore, it seems that W. floribunda possesses a good drought resistance. 2. From the analyses of the main growth parameters such as stem elongation, diameter growth, leaf area growth and total dry weight, it was found that the seedling growth can be improved with increasing soil water contents. The relation between each growth parameter(Y) and the soil water contents(W) was well described by a quadratic equation, Y=a+bW+cW2. 3. In soil water contents higher than 20%, the seedling growth(Y) was remarkable along with-its extended growing period, and related to the growing period(D) by a quadratic equation, Y=a+bD+cD2. 4. The artificial inoculation of Rhizobiun promoted the growth of Wisteria floribunda seedlings. 5. Rhizobium was found to be more readily inoculated and to form more root nodules compared to seedlings grown in higher soil water contents.
