Effects of Dry Matter Accumulation and Photosynthate Transporation of Stem and Sheath and Grain Production Under Different Water and Nitrogen Management in Rice
Abstract:Rice is one of the most important food crops in China, the realization of their super-high-yielding is of great significance in ensuring food security in this country.In order to investigate the characteristics of water and nitrogen efficient utilization of rice with different types of rice production.This study was targeted at investigating dry matter accumulation and remobilization of assimilates from vegetative tissues to grains in rice under the site-specific nitrogen management and the whole growth period of moderate dry wet alternate irrigation technology(T2) using two rice cultivars Yongyou 8 and Su10-100 as material. The results showed that compared with the conventional water and fertilizer management(T1), the dry matter accumulation from panicle differentiation period to mature period and non-structure carbohydrates(NSC) content in stem-sheath were increased significantly, the remobilization percentage of export and conversion of dry matter and NSC in stem-sheath were also enhanced, and the Yongyou 8 was significantly higher than the Su 10-100. The effective spikelet number was decreased, but the grain number per spike, setting percentage, grain plumpness and 1000-grain weight were increased under T2, meanwhile the Su10-100 and Yongyou 8 were increased by 6.21%, 2.53%, 1.68%, 13.63%, 3.3%, 8.1%, 10.35% and 9.06%, respectively, and that the inferior grains had more gain-weight increasing than superior,two varieties were reached 16.3% and 15.9%, respectively. Therefore, the rice under T2 has larger accumulation of dry matter at middle and later period and higher remobilization percentage of assimilates from vegetative tissues to grains, the spikelets showed highness of grain number and setting percentage and good enrichment degree especially in inferior spikelets,so as to improve grain yield.The study provides a theoretical basis and practical guidance for the high yield cultivation of rice and the high efficiency management of different types of rice.
