Abstract

Aiming to research on the effect of tillering on plant height, ear height, stem diameter, dry plant weight, grain number,grain weight, grouting and yield in 2011-2012, we selected Xianyu 335 which had strong ability of tillering as the experiment material,different treatments of keeping and removing tillering were compared. The result showed that keeping tillering had no influence in plant height and ear height, and the main stem diameter had no changing. It also had no significant influence in dry plant weight, grain number,grain weight when the tillering wilt. But dry plant weight, grain number, grain weight were significant bigger than that of removing tillering and tillerng wilt when the tillering growed normally. In fact, the leaf of tillering could transferred organic to the ear of main stem. The yield of keeping tillering was significant higher than that of removing tillering.
