Incorporating oilseed-rape straw in soil is one of the effective methods for enhancing the use efficiency of agricultural resources in the rape-rice rotation system. However, the impacts of oilseed-rape straw incorporation on root growth and dynamic changes in soil are still unclear. In order to provide a deeper understanding of the oilseed rape straw return on rice growth and productivity, the experiment was conducted in the field and in a specially-designed pots system from 2016 to 2017 by means of two straw returning methods and four straw returning amounts. In the early stage of rice growth (0–36 days after rice transplanting) the straw returning treatments decreased 1.0–8.6 mg/plant in bleeding density and 0.10–6.11, 0.06–0.31, and 0.52–0.84 μmol/(g h) in the activity of glutamine synthetase (GS), glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase (GOT), and glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (GPT), respectively. Oilseed rape straw returned by mulching induced negative impacts on new germinating roots in 0–10 cm of soil, while the negative impacts were observed on roots in 10–30 cm of soil for straw returned by plowing. In the later stage of rice growth (56–75 days after rice transplanting), oilseed rape straw returning produced some positive impacts on rice roots, which enhanced the yield of rice. Conclusively, our findings suggested that dynamic root growth and the activity of root enzymes are two major factors behind the slow reviving of rice after transplanting in the straw returning field. Plowing is a more appropriate method of straw returning than mulching in the rape-rice rotation system in the Sichuan basin area, with a straw incorporation rate of 3.0 t/hm2.

Rice is widely grown after harvesting of oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) in many countries. Experiments were carried out under greenhouse and field conditions to assess the impact of oilseed rape straw mulch on rice and paddy weeds. Oilseed rape mulch (900 g m−2) from straw 1-to-7 cm long was found to be safe for rice, when applied four days after sowing (DAS) in direct-seeded rice or four days after transplanting (DAT). In the meantime, the biomass of Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) P. Beauv. was reduced 65.74%, 80.18%, 81.15%, 70.99%, 55.65%, and 27.22%, respectively, when mulched with powder, and 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9-cm long oilseed rape straw, respectively, and the biomass reductions in Leptochloa chinensis (L.) Nees., Ludwigia prostrata Roxb., Ammannia auriculata Willd., and Cyperus difformis L. were all above 97% when mulched with 1 cm-length straw. The results of a field trial confirmed that oilseed rape straw mulch (900 g m−2) of 1 cm length was safe for rice. Moreover, weed suppression was as effective as the standard herbicide (oxadiargyl + butachlor 525 g ai ha−1) treatment. These findings demonstrate the potential to manage paddy rice weeds in an effective and environmentally sound manner by mulching with the straw of a preceding crop, oilseed rape.

<p>The influence of aerosol on lightning is very dependent on environmental factors, including thermal factors, humidity factors, and terrain factors. ADTD cloud-to-ground lightning data, ERA5 reanalysis data, and MERRA2 reanalysis data were applied to discuss the influence of aerosol on lightning activity in Sichuan basin. Thermodynamic factors were the main reasons for the difference in lightning density between the plateau and the basin. The results showed that the influence of aerosol on lightning activity in the basin and the plateau regions showed a significant difference, showing a positive correlation on the plateau and a negative correlation on the basin. In the plateau area, the aerosol concentration was relatively low, and the aerosol stimulated the lightning activity by influencing the microphysical processes. In the basin area, the aerosol load was very high, and the aerosol showed a more significant radiation effect. By reducing the solar radiation reaching the ground, the convective energy on the ground was reduced, and the intensity of lightning activity was finally suppressed.</p>
