Abstract:

To explore the effects of different spring wheat varieties and nitrogen application on the growth of border rows and the inter-row competition mechanism under ridge tillage with drill sowing, aiming to achieve high yield and efficiency in ridge-tilled spring wheat, a randomized block experiment was conducted. The spring wheat varieties Longchun 42 and Wuchun 10 were used, with four nitrogen application levels including 0 (N0), 180 (N1), 210 (N2), and 240 kg/ha (N3) to study their effects on border row advantage, water consumption, yield, and water use efficiency. The results showed that variety and nitrogen application significantly affected the border row advantage, and the order was border row > adjacent row > middle row. Longchun 42 exhibited higher border row yield and plot yield than Wuchun 10. Nitrogen application rate significantly affected the growth of wheat in different rows. Under different varieties and nitrogen application conditions, wheat plant height, leaf area index, chlorophyll content, root dry weight, dry matter per plant, 1000-grain weight, and yield per plant all showed significant border row advantages. As the nitrogen application rate increased, the border row advantage index showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing. Longchun 42 and Wuchun 10 varieties had the most significant border row advantage in yield per plant under N2 conditions, with border row increasing yield by 26.84% and 30.63% compared to the middle row, respectively. As nitrogen application increased, water consumption tended to rise, and the maximum yield and water use efficiency were observed under the N2 treatment. Compared to the N0 treatment, the water use efficiency of Longchun 42 and Wuchun 10 increased by 23.05% and 20.51% under N2 treatment, respectively. To sum up, under ridge tillage with drill sowing, both spring wheat Longchun 42 and Wuchun 10 with the nitrogen application rate of 210 kg/ha (N2) significantly enhanced the wheat border row advantage, however, Longchun 42 exhibited higher grain yield and water use efficiency under this treatment.
