【Objective】Conduct genetic analysis of the main nutritional quality traits of maize stems at the molecular level,to provide theoretical basis for genetic improvement of the main nutritional quality traits of maize stems.【Methods】The study used 381 different types of maize inbred lines as associated populations and planted randomly in the experimental field of the Hebi Academy of Agricultural Sciences in Henan Province in 2016 and 2017. The nutritional quality traits acid washing fiber(ADF),neutral washing fiber(NDF),and digestibility(IVDMD) were investigated during the heading,filling,and maturity stages. Using the Maize SNP50 gene chip,461 053 high-quality SNPs were obtained for genome-wide association analysis.【Results】Using the generalized linear model(GLM) analysis,a total of 392 significantly correlated stem nutritional quality traits SNPs(P<1.08×10-7) were detected on 10 chromosomes of maize during different growth stages of the two years,with phenotypic variation interpretation rates of 9.69% -17.34%. 97 SNPs were found to be independently associated more than twice,resulting in a total of 77 candidate genes associated with stem nutritional quality traits. Using the mixed linear model(MLM)analysis,a total of 257 significantly correlated SNPs were detected over the two years(P<2.17×10-6),with phenotypic variation interpretation rates of 9.82% -20.20%. 17 SNPs were found to be independently associated more than twice,resulting in a total of 82 candidate genes. Among them,10 overlap with GLM model candidate genes. A total of 159 candidate association genes were identified by GLM and MLM,among which 43 candidate genes were detected twice or more. Zm00001d021261 was found to be associated with ADF,NDF,and IVDMD in different years 31 times at multiple loci. This gene encoded ATP binding protein and chloroplast sensor kinase,had the highest expression in leaves at maturity stage. Zm00001d021255 was found to be associated with stem nutritional quality traits 10 times at two loci. This gene encoded cysteine rich receptor like protein kinase 25,which was only expressed in developmental internodes and female panicles,can be further studied and validated.【Conclusion】Using GLM and MLM models could quickly and effectively associate significant loci related to maize stem nutrient quality. HC-SNP could be screened through repetitive significant loci,and then associated gene enrichment regions could be excavated.

【Objective】To explore the effects of continuous application of soil conditioner quicklime and organic fertilizer on the growth,development,and yield components of maize in acidic soil in the southeastern region of Liaoning.【Methods】From 2019 to 2021 field experiments were conducted in Fengcheng City,Liaoning Province. Four treatments were set up including no application of soil conditioner(CK),quicklime(CaO),organic fertilizer(Organic),and organic fertilizer+quicklime(Organic+CaO). The effects of continuous application of soil conditioner on maize plant traits,dry matter accumulation,yield components,and other indicators were analyzed.【Results】From 2019 to 2021,the maize yield of CaO treatment were all higher than CK. The yield of Organic and Organic+CaO treatments were higher than CK in the first two years and were lower than the CK in the third year of continuous application. The yield increase of CaO treatment were in the range of 2.12% to 19.74%. The yield increase rates of Organic+CaO treatment were 15.74% and 7.89% in the first two years,respectively. But there was no yield increase effect in the third year of application. The year,soil conditioner,and their interaction had extremely significant effect(P<0.01) on maize yield. The yield of CaO and Organic+CaO treatments were significantly higher(P<0.05) than CK and the Organic treatments. The ear number of CaO treatment was significantly higher(P<0.05) than CK. CaO and Organic+CaO treatments had significantly higher(P<0.05) kernel number per ear and kernel number per hectare than that of CK and Organic treatment. 1 000-kernel weight in Organic+CaO treatment was significantly higher(P<0.05) than all other treatments. Yield was significantly positively correlated(P<0.05) with kernel number per ear (R2=0.614) and kernel number per hectare (R2=0.746). Continuous application of soil conditioner could improve plant height,ear height,and the ratio of ear height to plant height of maize. And the effect on ear height was more than the effect on plant height. Leaf area index (LAI) increased rapidly in early growth stages and decreased slowly in later growth stages. The effects were more obvious for Organic+CaO and Organic treatments. Applying soil conditioner promoted the dry matter accumulation and post floral dry matter accumulation of all the growth stages. The effect of Organic+CaO treatment was better than that of Organic and CaO treatments.【Conclusion】Continuous application of CaO and Organic+CaO on acidic soil promoted the maize growth and development. However,from the yield prospective,when using Organic+CaO as soil conditioner in the southeastern region of Liaoning,continuous application for more than two years should be avoided.

【Objective】To explore the accumulation of deoxynivalenol(DON) in the kernels of different wheat varieties under natural disease conditions and the effect on Fuasrium diseased kernel rate(FDK) and test weight,so as to provide reference for breeding wheat varieties resistant to Fuasrium.【Methods】The content of DON,3A-DON(3-acetyldeoxynivalenol) and 15A-DON(15-acetyldeoxynivalenol) in the kernels of 65 wheat varieties from different sources were tested by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(LC-MS/MS) to analyze the difference in Fuasrium diseased kernel rate(FDK) and test weight (TW) under different DON content.【Results】The FDK of the 65 wheat varieties ranged from 0.20% to 7.80%. The content of DON was 0.11 to 4.26 mg/kg. The test weight was 703.00 to 791.70 g/L. With correlation coefficients of 0.514,0.549,0.529 and 0.521,respectively,FDK was significantly positively correlated with the contents of DON,3A-DON,15A-DON and DON-Total(P<0.01),and was significantly negatively correlated with test weight(P<0.05),with correlation coefficients of -0.254. With correlation coefficients of 0.999,0.911 and 0.899,respectively,the kernel contents of DON,3A-DON,15A-DON had significant positive correlation(P<0.01) with DON-Total,and significant negative correlation with test weight(P<0.01),with correlation coefficients of -0.502,-0.504 and -0.481,respectively. In terms of the source of the varieties,the kernel accumulation of DON was lowest in Jiangsu(1.51 mg/kg),followed by Anhui(2.06 mg/kg),Henan(2.75 mg/kg) and Shandong(2.98 mg/kg). The content of 3A-DON was lowest in Jiangsu(0.047 mg/kg),followed by Anhui(0.075 mg/kg),Shandong(0.111 mg/kg) and Henan(0.113 mg/kg). The content of 15A-DON was lowest in Jiangsu(0.059 mg/kg),followed by Anhui(0.090 mg/kg),Shandong(0.132 mg/kg)and Henan(0.141 mg/kg). The content of DON-Total was lowest in Jiangsu(1.61 mg/kg),followed by Anhui(2.23 mg/kg),Henan(3.00 mg/kg)and Shandong(3.23 mg/kg). The number and proportion of varieties with DON no more than 2 mg/kg in wheat kernels were as follows:Anhui(18,64.29%)>Jiangsu(13,61.90%)>Shandong(2,22.22%)>Henan(1,14.29%). The average test weight was highest in Jiangsu(758.57 g/L),followed by Anhui(751.90 g/L),Henan(739.71 g/L) and Shandong(735.27 g/L). In terms of the characteristics of different varieties,eight wheat varieties with DON no more than 2 mg/kg and test weight no less than 770.00 g/L were selected. Among these,there were seven semi winter varieties including Huaimai 40,Huaimai 44,Nongmai 152,Quanmai 725,Womai No. 9,Xunong 029 and Huaimai 45,one spring variety,Guohong No. 6.【Conclusion】The kernel FDK,DON contents and test weight of the 65 wheat varieties were quite different. With the increase of FDK,the kernel accumulation of 3A-DON,15A-DON and DON-Total increased gradually,and the average test weight decreased. Huaimai 40,Huaimai 44,Nongmai 152,Quanmai 725,Womai No.9,Xunong 029,Huaimai 45,and Guohong No. 6 had better resistance to Fuasrium disease.

【Objective】The impacts of various treatments on the structure and diversity of soil microbial communities on continuous cucumber cropping were investigated to select appropriate soil improvement measures.【Methods】The soil that had been continuously cropped cucumbers for 12 years was treated with straw returning,wheat filling,anti-continuous cropping biological fertilizer,and lime nitrogen disinfection. The Illumina MiSeq sequencing platform was used to conduct a 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing of soil microorganisms.【Results】 Compared with the control,Chao1 index,Simpson index of the four treatments all increased,with straw returning and anti-continuous cropping biological fertilizer treatment increased significantly( P<0.05). At the bacterial phylum level,different treatments had no effect on the community composition. However the relative abundance of Bacteroidetes increased significantly( P<0.05)in the treatments of straw returning,wheat filling,and anti-continuous cropping biological fertilizer. In the treatment of wheat filling and lime nitrogen disinfection,the relative abundance of Actinobacteria and Gemmatimonadetes increased significantly( P<0.05). In the treatment of anti-continuous cropping biological fertilizer and lime nitrogen disinfection,the relative abundance of Acidobacteria reduced significantly( P<0.05). At genus level in the four treatment,the relative abundance of dominant bacteria Bifidobacterium was significantly reduced( P<0.05)with the appearence Thermopolyspora and Thermomonospora. In wheat filling,the relative abundance of the dominant bacteria Steroidobacteria increased significantly( P<0.05). In straw returning and anti-continuous cropping biological fertilizer,the relative abundance of dominant bacteria chryseolinea, cellvibrio and flavisobacter increased significantly( P<0.05).【Conclusion】In continuous cucumber cultivation,the four improvement measures affected the composition,richness,and diversity of the soil bacterial community.

【Objective】To elucidate the impacts of tillage methods on the development of saline-alkali farmland and maize growth by examining the growth and development of maize roots under deep ploughing straw returning.【Methods】From 2021 to 2022,two tillage methods,shallow rotation no returning(CK)and deep ploughing straw returning(DPR),were set up on mild,moderate and severe saline-alkali land. The local main maize varieties DK159 and JSH257 were used as experimental materials to analyze the effects of different treatments on soil physical and chemical properties,maize root growth status and yield.【Results】Compared with CK,the bulk density in DPR soil decreased,water content increased,alkaline hydrolytic nitrogen,total N,available P,available K and organic matter content increased significantly( P<0.05). The soil total salt content and pH value decreased by 5.48%-48.98% and 1.25%-13.71%,respectively. The root length,root surface area,average root diameter and root volume of DPR maize significantly increased( P<0.05). The root indexes improved most in the mild saline-alkali soil,with increases of 62.13%,62.99%,26.46% and 69.67%,respectively. In comparison with the CK,the yield of maize increased by 14.08%-33.61% with the highest increase in moderate saline-alkali soil.【Conclusion】Deep ploughing straw returning effectively improved soil physical and chemical properties,reduced soil total salt content and pH value. With the decrease of total salt content,maize root length and root volume increased significantly,increasing root surface area,improving the ability of maize plants to utilize soil nutrients,and ultimately increasing yield.

【Objective】To quantitatively analyze the yield gap of wheat following rice in Anhui Province and clarify the space for increasing yield and improving utilization efficiency of resource of wheat following rice.【Methods】Four cultivation patterns:super high yield(SH),high yield and high efficiency(HH),farmer pattern(FP)and inherent soil productivity(ISP)and three difference levels:first-level yield gap(FP-ISP),second-level yield gap(HH-FP),and third-level yield gap(SH-HH) were set up in wheat following rice areas along the Huai River,between Yangtze River and Huai River,and along the Yangtze River in Anhui Province from 2017 to 2020. The dry matter accumulation and leaf area index of over-wintering stage,jointing stage,anthesis stage,filling stage and maturity stage were determined and the effective ear number,kernels per ear,1 000-grain weight and economic coefficient,as well as yield were measured at maturity stage.【Results】Along the Huai River,between Yangtze River and Huai River,and along the Yangtze River in Anhui Province,the first-level yield gap(FP-ISP) of wheat following rice was the largest,with an average of 3 009.6 kg/hm 2. The second-level yield gap and the third-level yield gap were 768.5 and 758.0 kg/hm 2,respectively. Yield gaps varied among different wheat following rice planting regions,with the first-level yield gap decreased gradually from north to south,the second-level yield gap increased slightly from north to south,and the third-level yield gap in the north slightly higher than that of the south. The yield gap of the different levels varied greatly among different years. The effective measures to narrow the first-level yield gap were to increase the effective ear number,kernels per ear,biological yield,economic coefficient and leaf area index in jointing stage.The effective measures to narrow the second-level yield gap were the enhancement of kernels per ear,biological yield and dry matter in anthesis stage. The effective measures to narrow the third-level yield gap were to increase the effective ear number and economic coefficient. Sink number,sink volume,leaf area index in over-wintering stage and jointing stage and dry matter accumulation after flowering were extremely significantly positive correlated( P<0.01) with the yield of wheat following rice. Nitrogen agronomic utilization efficiency,light and accumulative temperature utilization efficiency increased with the improvement of yield.【Conclusion】Increasing grain sink number,expanding sink capacity and improving grain sink quality were the effective means to narrow the yield gap and increase yield of wheat following rice in Anhui Province.

【Objective】To comprehend the impacts of salt stress on seed germination,seedling growth,and physiological characteristics of salt tolerant and salt sensitive sunflower and to analyze the salt tolerant mechanism of sunflower from the perspectives of physiology and biochemistry.【Methods】Two sunflower inbred lines S05-10(salt tolerant)and 19S6(salt sensitive)were stressed with 50,100,150 and 200 mmol/L NaCl solutions,and distilled water treatment was used as control(CK). Germination percentage,plant height,proline content,malondialdehyde content,relative conductivity and SOD activity were measured. To analyze the effects of salt stress on seed germination,seedling growth and physiological characteristics of sunflower.【Results】Under 100,150,and 200 mmol/L NaCl stress,the germination rate of S05-10 and 19S6 significantly decreased,with the largest decreases being 55.68% and 82.11% when compared to CK(P<0.05). Under 200 mmol/L NaCl stress,the plant height of S05-10 and 19S6 reduced by 31.93% and 63.31%,respectively,compared to CK. Under 50-200 mmol/L NaCl stress,compared to CK,the proline content of S05-10 increased by 44.38%-142.62%,the malondialdehyde content increased by 7.12%-21.36%,and the relative conductivity of leaves increased by 0.04%-28.52%;while the proline content of 19S6 increased by 4.01%-19.74%,the malondialdehyde content increased by 5.00%-102.50% and the relative conductivity of leaves increased by 18.24%-28.96%. Under 100 and 150 mmol/L NaCl stress,the SOD activity of S05-10 increased by 17.77% and 20.43%,respectively,in comparison to CK. Under 50 to 200 mmol/L NaCl stress,the SOD activity of 19S6 was generally steady and increased by 1.86% to 3.73% compared to CK.【Conclusion】Under 100-200 mmol/L NaCl stress,sunflower seed germination and seedling growth were inhibited,with 19S6 showing more inhibition than S05-10 did. Under NaCl stress,19S6 suffered more serious salt damage,with serious leaf membrane lipid peroxidation and electrolyte leakage. The increase in malondialdehyde content and relative leaf conductivity were both significantly higher than those of S05-10. By accumulating more osmotic regulatory substances(proline)and boosting the activity of antioxidant enzymes(SOD)under NaCl stress,S05-10 reduced stress and improved salt tolerance. Under NaCl stress,19S6′s proline content and SOD activity did not change considerably,and its salt tolerance was evidently insufficient.

【Objective】To investigate the pesticide residues in intensively planted spinach,as well as the risk associated with dietary exposure of pesticide residues in spinach.【Methods】Pesticide residues were measured in 80 spinach samples intensively planted in Ulanqab,Inner Mongolia. The chronic and acute dietary exposure risk assessment model was used to assess the dietary exposure risk of pesticide residues in the spinach. The pesticide risk ranking was done using the British Veterinary Drug Residue Committee′s veterinary drug residue risk ranking matrix to assess the health risk caused by pesticide residues.【Results】Pesticide residues from 16 different pesticides were found in spinach samples,mostly insecticides and low hazardous pesticides. The content was 0.002 0 to 1.280 0 mg/kg,the detection rate was 2.5% to 30.0%,and the over standard rate was 2.5%. The likelihood of chronic and acute dietary exposure to the insecticide Fluoronitrile exceeding the standard was less than 100%,posing neither long-term or short-term damage to human health. Pesticide residues with a risk value of less than 30 were classified as low-risk pesticide residues.【Conclusion】Pesticide residues were safe in spinach intensive production,and the danger of dietary exposure to pesticide residues was low. However Fluoronitrile was a potential risk factor,oversight of banned pesticides should be strengthened.

【Objective】To determine the effect of various storage methods on the quality of Jerusalem artichoke tubers in order to provide a reference for the advancement of Jerusalem artichoke tubers storage and preservation technologies.【Methods】The tubers of Tumet Jerusalem artichoke were preserved in cellars,warehouses,and the soil once they were harvested and dried. Every 30 days,the dry matter,reducing sugar,and inulin contents were tested,and variations in tuber appearance were noticed,as well as the rotting rate and germination rate were calculated.【Results】Under three storage methods,the quantities of dry matter,reducing sugar,and inulin of Jerusalem artichoke tubers varied significantly( P<0.05). After 120 d of storage,the dry matter content of the cellar,warehouse,and soil storage decreased by 10.40%,16.77%,and 27.83%,whereas the inulin content decreased by 11.60%,4.45%,and 33.47%,respectively. The reducing sugar content decreased by 44.54%,12.82% for cellar and warehouse storage,and increased by 51.13% for the soil storage. The rotting rate and germination rate of Jerusalem artichoke tubers were both zero after cellaring. Some tubers rotted in warehouse storage,with a 7% rotting rate after 120 d. For soil storage,Jerusalem artichoke tubers germination appeared,with a 97% germination rate after 120 d.【Conclusion】Cellaring successfully extended Jerusalem artichoke tubers storage and preservation duration,reduced nutrient consumption,and preserved good appearance and quality. Within 90 d of soil storage,the appearance of Jerusalem artichoke tubers remained unchanged,yet the inulin content reduced dramatically. The Jerusalem artichoke tubers could be stored in the soil,the cellar,or a combination of the two to ensure tuber quality and extend storage period.

【Objective】To investigate the dwarfing effect of plant growth retardants on Hemerocallis hence improve its ornamental value.【Methods】Different concentrations of Paclobutrazol(PP 333),Uniconazole(S 3307),Chlormequat Chloride(CCC),and B 9 were applied to Hemerocallis variety‘little Anna Rosa’ by pot soil application or leaf spraying with water as control. The effects of plant growth retardants on plant morphology,leaf characteristics,and flowering of Hemerocallis were investigated.【Results】All of the treatments had an inhibitory effect on‘little Anna Rosa’ plant morphology,with the treatment of spraying 60 mg/L S 3307 on the leaf having the most evident inhibitory effect. In comparison to the control,the plant height and crown width both decreased by 52.32% and 36.68%,respectively;the stem diameter increased by 97.61%. In terms of application methods,leaf spraying PP 333 and S 3307 had a better dwarfing effect on‘little Anna Rosa’ than pot soil application,whereas pot soil application CCC and B 9 had a better dwarfing effect on‘little Anna Rosa’ than leaf spraying. Various treatments inhibited the leaves of the‘little Anna Rosa’,and the effect was positively related to the concentration. The leaf length,leaf width(excluding 40 mg/L S 3307),and leaf area of the 60 mg/L S 3307 treatment were significantly smaller than the control and other treatments( P<0.05),with reductions of 29.47%,35.44%,and 54.46% respectively,as compare to the control. In terms of application methods,leaf spraying S 3307(excluding 20 mg/L)had significantly higher inhibitory effect on leaf length and leaf area than pot soil treatment( P<0.05). While pot soil treatment of CCC and B 9 had a higher inhibitory effect on leaf length,leaf width,and leaf area of than leaf spraying. Various treatments increased the flower diameter of ‘little Anna Rosa’. The flower diameter of 60 mg/L S 3307 was significantly higher than that of the control and other treatments( P<0.05),which was 65.00% higher than control. In terms of retardants toxicity,high concentrations of PP 333,CCC and B 9 caused the plants to stop blooming. The S 3307,on the other hand,had no toxicity and allowed the plant to bloom normally. 【Conclusion】Leaf spraying with 60 mg/L S 3307 boosted the ornamental value of potted Hemerocallis,resulting in a dwarf and compact plant,smaller leaves,dense green foliage,and larger flower diameter.

【Objective】To find the optimal fertilization method through research on the diurnal variation of millet′s photosynthetic properties throughout the filling stage. To provide a reference for improving the production and industrial growth of side crops in Ordos City,Inner Mongolia.【Methods】In the test site at Shagedu,Junggar Banner,using Jinmiao K1 as test variety,five fertilization treatments were set up:phosphorus and potassium fertilizer(PK,blank),nitrogen-phosphorus and potassium fertilizer(NPK,control),replacing 20% of the total nitrogen application with sheep manure(N+SM),replacing 20% of the total nitrogen application with bio-organic fertilizer(N+BM),and replacing 20% of the total nitrogen application with slow-release compound fertilizer(N+HM). The membrane side planting was used to analyse the differences in millet leaf area,diurnal variations in photosynthetic properties during filling stage and yield.【Results】The leaf area of Jinmiao K1 in N+BM treatment was higher than that in other treatments after jointing stage. The diurnal variation of net photosynthetic rate of different treatments showed bimodal curve change and had photosynthetic midday break. The net photosynthetic rate of N+BM treatment was the highest at 17.5 μmol/(m2·s). The highest transpiration rate of each treatment appeared from 12:00 to 14:00. The diurnal variation of intercellular CO2 concentration showed a‘V’ shaped trend. The intercellular CO2 concentration in N+BM treatment was the lowest at 39.2 mmol/(m2·s). The stomatal conductance and net photosynthetic rate of each treatment had the same trend with the lowest value appeared from 12:00 to 14:00. At 12:00,the stomatal conductance of N+BM treatment was 33.3% lower than that of NPK treatment. The net photosynthetic rate was significantly positively correlated with the transpiration rate,and extreme significantly positively correlated with stomatal conductance. The grain yield of N+BM treatment reached 5 122 kg/hm2,which was 16.2% higher than that of NPK treatment.【Conclusion】Replacing 20% of the total nitrogen application with bio-organic fertilizer improved the photosynthetic capacity and dry matter accumulation capacity of millet in the later stage,increased yield,was a suitable fertilization method in Ordos City.
