Post-anthesis Relationships Between Nitrogen Isotope Discrimination and Yield of Spring Wheat Under Different Nitrogen Levels
FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE(2022)
摘要
Wheat grain yield and nitrogen (N) content are influenced by the amount of N remobilized to the grain, together with pre-anthesis and post-anthesis N uptake. Isotopic techniques in farmed areas may provide insight into the mechanism underlying the N cycle. N-15-labeled urea was applied to microplots within five different fertilized treatments 0 kg ha(-1) (N1), 52.5 kg ha(-1) (N2), 105 kg ha(-1) (N3), 157.5 kg ha(-1) (N4), and 210 kg ha(-1) (N5) of a long-term field trial (2003-2021) in a rainfed wheat field in the semi-arid loess Plateau, China, to determine post-anthesis N uptake and remobilization into the grain, as well as the variability of N-15 enrichment in aboveground parts. Total N uptake was between 7.88 and 29.27 kg ha(-1) for straw and 41.85 and 95.27 kg ha(-1) for grain. In comparison to N1, N fertilization increased straw and grain N uptake by 73.1 and 56.1%, respectively. Nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) and harvest index were altered by N application rates. The average NUE at maturity was 19.9% in 2020 and 20.01% in 2021; however, it was usually higher under the control and low N conditions. The amount of N-15 excess increased as the N rate increased: N5 had the highest N-15 excess at the maturity stage in the upper (2.28 +/- 0.36%), the middle (1.77 +/- 0.28%), and the lower portion (1.68 +/- 1.01%). Compared to N1, N fertilization (N2-N5) increased N-15 excess in the various shoot portions by 50, 38, and 35% at maturity for upper, middle, and lower portions, respectively. At maturity, the N-15 excess remobilized to the grain under N1-N5 was between 5 and 8%. Our findings revealed that N had a significant impact on yield and N isotope discrimination in spring wheat that these two parameters can interact, and that future research on the relationship between yield and N isotope discrimination in spring wheat should take these factors into account.
