Abstract:

For the lodging problem on spring maize in the rain-fed area of Shanxi Province, two varieties with different stalk lodging resistance (dense variety Zhengdan 958 and dilute variety Jindan 86) were chosen as materials, and five population density treatments of 5.25, 6.00, 6.75, 7.50,and 8.25×10 4/hm 2 were set to analyze the change characteristics of stalk lodging resistant and agronomic traits of maize, meanwhile their relationship between stalk traits and the yield, stalk traits and lodging rate were discussed. The results showed that each stalk internode length and diameter of Zhengdan 958 first increased and then decreased, the highest density treatment was 7.50×10 4/hm 2, while the each stalk internode length of Jindan 86 significantly increased, and the diameter significantly decreased. With the increase of plants group density, the dry weight of internode, dry weight of unit internode, puncture strength, stalk bending capacity all showed a trend of first increased and after decreased, the highest density treatment of Zhengdan 958 was 7.50×10 4/hm 2, while the highest density treatment of Jindan 86 was 6.00×10 4/hm 2, which had a significant difference with other treatments. Correlation analysis showed that the puncture strength and bending ability were negatively correlated with internode length significantly, and positively correlated with internode dry weight and the dry weight of unit internode significantly. Lodging rate showed a close negative correlate with internode diameter, the dry weight of internode, the dry weight of unit internode, the stalk skin puncture strength and bending capacity of the third internode. Finally, the highest yield of Zhengdan 958 and Jingdan 86 were 7.50×10 4/hm 2 and 6.00×10 4/hm 2, respectively, increased by 8%-26% and 20%-30%.
