Zhu H.J., Zhang T., Wang X.H., Wang Y., and Shi A.L., 2022, ¹⁵N tracer-based analysis on nitrogen utilization laws of rice under different irrigation modes, Molecular Plant Breeding, 13(6): 1-11 (doi: 10.5376/mpb.2022.13.0006)

In order to promote the efficient and coordinated utilization of water and nitrogen in rice, the ¹⁵N missing technology experiment was adopted to study the effects of nitrogen application rate (N₀, N₁₆₀, N₂₀₀, N₂₄₀) and irrigation mode (Wet-dry alternation, conventional irrigation) on nitrogen absorption, transport, residue, loss and nitrogen utilization of super rice. The results showed that with the increase of nitrogen application rate, the accumulation of fertilizer nitrogen and total nitrogen in rice plants at different growth stages, and the accumulation of nitrogen in various organs at mature stage increased significantly, and the accumulation of nitrogen per panicle at mature stage was the highest, reaching 67.20%~69.02%. The transport amount of nitrogen from different sources in different vegetative organs of rice plants increased with the increase of nitrogen application rate, and the comparison of nitrogen transport amount in organs was as follows: leaf > stem > root; After full heading, the accumulation of nitrogen from different sources and its contribution rate to grain nitrogen per spike increased with the increase of nitrogen application rate, but with the increase of nitrogen application rate, the residual amount of soil fertilizer nitrogen increased significantly, the residual rate showed a downward trend, and the nitrogen loss rate increased significantly. Dry-wet alternate irrigation treatment can increase nitrogen accumulation in different organs of rice in different periods, improve nitrogen use efficiency and rice yield to a certain extent. This study summarized the laws of nitrogen absorption, utilization, residue and loss of rice under different irrigation conditions and different nitrogen application conditions, which provided a theoretical basis for efficient cultivation of rice.
