Summary: | Konjac (Amorphophallus oncophyllus Prain.) is one kind of food crops
that have a high tolerance for shaded environments. The growth and productivity
of konjac could be disturbance while not in accordance with optimal growing
conditions. The research was conducted in community forest Nglanggeran,
Gunung Kidul, plantation forest Wanagama I, and controlled environments
(nursery). Field and laboratory research was conducted during three months,
including the measurement of environmental factors, morphological and
physiological characters of konjac. Data analysis using analysis of variance
(ANOVA), regression and correlation.
Results showed that light intensity factors significantly affect to the
morphological and physiological responses of konjac in nursery, while in the
community forest Nglanggeran no real affect. Light intensity range of 45-70%
was optimal light intensity for growth and productivity of konjac. In addition,
physiological response of konjac in the light intensity 45-70% was increased
chlorophyll content, but the numbers of leaf stomata between open and shaded
area relatively insignificant. However, the efficiency of storage root production of
konjac at high light intensity (open area) was relatively larger than shaded area.
Negative correlation was shown by leaf area and tuber dry weight in shaded and
open areas. In contrast to the plantation forest in Wanagama I, stands factors more
significantly affect to the growth and productivity of konjac, than light intensity.
The growth and productivity under acacia stands relatively better than teak and
eucalyptus. In addition, the content of chlorophyll and efficiency of storage root
production under acacia stands were relatively higher, but the numbers of leaf
stomata was relative not significantly different between teak, acacia and
eucalyptus. Positive correlation was shown by leaf area and tuber dry weight of
konjac under teak stands, otherwise negative correlation was shown under acacia
and eucalyptus stands. |
