Abstract

Abstract:

To investigate the effect of field practice of shallow burying drip irrigation on seed yield and root cap characteristics, differences in yield characters, root and shoot dry matter quality and morphological characteristics under two cultivation modes: shallow burying drip irrigation and fertilizer optimized high yield mode (HY) and farmer production mode (CK) were studied by using two maize cultivars, Xianyu1483 and Dika159. The results showed that number of panicles and grains per unit area, yield and nitrogen fertilizer under HY mode were increased significantly compared with those under CK mode. HY practice mode also enhanced dry matter accumulation from silking to maturity stage, increased the leaf area per plant and leaf area index, kept leaf activity at a high level; In addition, dry matter mass of root system in soil depth of 0-20 cm was significantly reduced, and both the number of roots in depth of 20-40 cm and root activity improved under HY mode compared with those under CK mode. Therefore, it was concluded that HY mode weakened the adverse effects caused by dense planting, made root cap form an excellent structure and maintained a strong individual material production capacity for plants, and thereby increased seed yield.

Key words: maize, cultivation patterns, shallow drip irrigation, yield, root canopy characteristics
