[Does response of rape to La and critical concentration of La in red earth].
The effects of different concentration of La added in red soil on the growth, yield, content of chlorophyll and peroxidase(POD) activity of rape were studied by pot experiments. The results showed that the growth and yield of rape could be improved by low concentration of La3+, however there was no significant difference between the treatment and the control, and inhibited when the dose were more than 300 mg kg-1 and killed after 600 mg.kg-1 La was added. The decrease of chlorophyll content and chlorophyll a/b was observed when the exogenous concentration of La was more than 15 mg.kg-1. POD activity increased gradually with increasing concentration and prolonging reaction. The feasible application level of La was suggested to be below 15 mg.kg-1.
