Abstract:This study was aimed at understanding the distribution and contents of mineral nutrients in different organs of pomegranate trees. We tested the distribution and the contents of N, P, K, Ca, Mg, and S in different organs of a 10-year-old ‘dabenzi’ pomegranate tree. The results were as follows. (1) The leaf contained the highest contents of N, P, and Ca at 20.17, 2.00, and 30.63 g·kg-1, respectively; the fruit contained the highest K at 10.23 g·kg-1; the fibrous roots had the highest contents of Mg and S at 1.27 g·kg-1 and 1.90 g·kg-1, respectively. (2) The amount of N, P, K, Ca, Mg, and S accumulated the most in the main branches followed by the lateral roots, the fruits, the main branches, the leaves, and the fruits at 35.03 g (25.22%), 3.66 g (28.80%), 31.97 g (43.70%), 27.29 g (26.42%), 3.86 g (30.65%), and 3.48 g (27.01%), respectively. (3) Accumulation amount of major elements in per unit biomass of the whole plant was 13.69 g·kg-1 (FW). The distribution of the accumulated elements was in a decreasing order of leaves (26.35 g·kg-1 FW), fibrous roots (22.47 g·kg-1 FW), and fruits (8.94 g·kg-1 FW).
