Abstract
In order to research the most suitable tillage practices with crop residues to reach high and stable yield in summer maize,with eight different tillage treatments during wheat-maize whole season,the effect of tillage practices on grain filling and ear characteristics and grain yield in summer maize were studied. Compared with CK( Rotary tillage at wheat season + direct seeding maize + no straw returning),all other treatments increased the grain yield,but only in W3M2( Sub soiling tillage at wheat season + direct seeding maize + no straw returning) the increase reached significantly by 23. 9%. Based on the Logistic equation fitting,the grain filling duration in W3M2 was the longest,with 2. 18 days longer than CK,and the average filling rate,maximum filling rate,kernel number of per ear and 100-grain weight were also increased by 0. 05,0. 1 mg /( per kernel·d),42 grains and 1. 83 g,respectively. The grain filling rate was continually decreased during the late grain filling stage in rotary tillage in only wheat season( CK,W1M2) and rotary tillage in both wheat and maize season( W1M1),especially in CK,the decrease was fast. However,the grain filling rate of other treatments was rapidly decreased slowly after 40 days of grain filling. Therefore,the treatment W3M2( Sub soiling tillage at wheat season + direct seeding maize + no straw returning) could significantly improve both ear characteristics and grain filling,and have a great potential for increasing the yield of maize.
