    Abstract:

    A field experiment was conducted to study effects of fertilizer combination on yield,quality and forms of nutrients in leaf of lettuce.The results show that yield of lettuce was significantly increased(135.8% ~177.0% ) by balanced application of secondary-and micro-nutrient fertilizer and organic fertilizer in addition to N application at the same rate in CK.In terms of yield increment,the treatments were in the sequence of NP1K2MgZnB>NP2K2>NP1K2RM>NP1K2PP>NP1K2Mg>NP1K2>NP2K1.Nitrate contents of lettuce were reduced in all treatments.It was the most significant in Treatment NP1K2MgZnB and the least in Treatment NP2K2 in leaf,and the most in Treatment NP1K2RM and the least in Treatment NP2K2 in stem.Quality of the lettuce was improved in all the treatments and the most in Treatment NP1K2RM.In terms of forms of nutrients in the plant,protein-N,non-protein-P and non-protein-K dominate,respectively,in the lettuce leaf.Effects of fertilizer combination on forms of N and P nutrients in the leaf of lettuce differed from treatment to treatment but the effects of raising contents of the three forms of potassium were similar.Among the forms of nutrients,only non-protein-N showed a significantly negative correlat ion with nitrate in the stem of lettuce,but a positive one with Vc content in the stem and amino acid content in the leaf,non-protein-P showed a significantly negative correlation with Vc in the leaf and amino acid in the stem,and non-protein K and total K showed a significantly negative correlation with nitrate in the leaf but a positive one with Vc contents in the stem and leaf and amino acid in stem.Protein K showed a significantly negative correlation with nitrate in the stem,but a positive one with Vc and amino acid in the stem and leaf.
