Abstract: 【Objective】A field experiment was conducted to clarify the regulatory effects of potassium application time on starch accumulation and its physiological mechanism, starch granule distribution of storage roots of sweetpotato variety Jixu 23. 【Method】Jixu 23 (cultivar for starch use) was planted at Tai’an experimental site in Shandong Province, with randomized block design in 2008-2009 growing season. There were four treatments in all, including the control (non-potassium fertilizer, T1), potassium applied as basal fertilizer (T2), as top cover fertilizer (T3) and as top-growth peak fertilizer (T4). Samples were obtained by using periodic sampling during storage roots development. The content of starch, amylose and amylopectin of storage root were determined at different growth stages. Meanwhile the medium diameter of starch grain was determined and the volume fraction of different diameters starch granules (>19.76 μm, 3.359-19.76 μm and <3.359 μm) was calculated. The activities of enzymes (SS, ADPGPPase, UDPGPPase, GBSS and SSS) related to starch synthesis were also studied. The effects of potassium application time on starch and its components, starch granule distribution and activities of enzymes related to starch synthesis in storage roots at different growth stages were analyzed.【Result】Compared with the control (T1), dry matter accumulation and starch yield of storage roots in treatments with potassium applied increased, and the increase of starch yield of T2, T3 and T4 treatments was 24.90%, 16.57%, and 9.24%, respectively. And the increase decreased when the application time delayed. The amylose content of storage root in treatments of topdressing (T3, T4) increased while amylopectin content was decreased significantly. The volume fraction of large starch granules in treatment with potassium applied as basal fertilizer (T2) was larger, and the volume fraction of medium and small starch granules in treatment with potassium applied as top-growth peak fertilizer (T4) was larger than that in the other treatments. Potassium application increased the activities of SS, ADPGPPase and UDPGPPase, and enhanced the supply capability of precursors for the synthesis of starch. And the longest action time of potassium on SS and ADPGPPase activities was 130 days, and potassium applied as basal fertilizer (T2) worked effectively mainly at early and middle stages of storage roots development, while treatments of topdressing (T3, T4) worked effectively mainly at middle and late stages of storage roots development. For UDPGPPase activity, the earlier the potassium applied, the longer action time was got. Potassium applied as topdressing (T3, T4) increased SSS activity but reduced GBSS activity of storage roots during the later expanding period. There was a significant positive correlation between total starch content and SS and ADPGPPase activities, and the significant positive correlation was also found between amylose content and GBSS and SS activities. And amylopectin content had a significant positive correlation with ADPGPPase and SSS activities.【Conclusion】Potassium applied as basal fertilizer (T2) and top cover fertilizer (T3) increased dry matter accumulation and starch yield of storage root significantly. Potassium applied as topdressing increased amylopectin content but decreased amylase content significantly. Treatments with potassium applied as basal fertilizer got a higher volume fraction of large starch granules, while treatments with potassium applied as top-growth peak fertilizer got a higher volume fraction of medium and small starch granules. The significant effects of potassium application time on amylase content, amylopectin content and starch yield were closely related with the changes of SS, ADPGPPase, UDPGPPase, GBSS and SSS activities.
