Abstract:

In order to investigate the adaptation of the photosynthetic properties of plants in the process of maize evolution at grain filling stage to high temperature stress over time in China, three main varieties of maize from three different epochs were selected which were Baidan 4 (1960s), Zhongdan 2 (1980s) and Zhengdan 958 (2000s). High temperature stress treatment at grain filling stage was formed by setting two sowing dates on April 15th and 25th, 2018. We compared the differences in relative chlorophyll content (SPAD), population leaf area index (LAI) and photosynthetic effective radiation (PAR) at the base of the population at the filling stage by using two portables photosynthetic analysers (SPAD-502 chlorophyll meter and SunScan plant canopy analyzer). Moreover, the correlations between stress tolerance indices (STI) and SPAD, LAI and PAR at the base of population were analyzed. The results showed that with the development of times, the yield of the maize varieties increased gradually after they were subjected to high temperature stress during the grain filling period, STI gradually increased; and decline of SPAD value of ear leaf and LAI of population were decline, and increase of PAR at population base of maize was also reduced. STI were significantly negatively correlated with the decline of SPAD and LAI, and the increase of PAR at population base (P < 0.05). It was shown that the evolution of the maize varieties over time has improved their ability to adapt to high temperatures during the grain filling period, if the maize was exposed to a high temperature load during the grain filling, the photosynthetic capacity of individual maize leaves and the interception and utilization of photosynthetic radiation of the population in the case of new varieties are not reduced more than in the case of old varieties in order to provide sufficient photosynthesis to cover the demand of yield formation.
