SUMMARYTen leading varieties of winter wheat released during 1950–2009 in North China were tested in a free-air temperature increase (FATI) facility. The FATI facility mimicked the local air temperature pattern well, with an increase of 1·1 °C in the daily mean temperature. For all the tested varieties, warming caused a significant reduction in the total length of wheat growth period by 5 days and especially in the pre-anthesis period, where it was reduced by 9 days. However, warming increased wheat biomass production and grain yield by 8·4 and 11·4%, respectively, on an average of all the tested varieties. There was no significant difference in the warming-led reduction in the entire growth period among the tested varieties. Interestingly, the warming-led increments in biomass production and grain yield increased along with the variety release year. Significantly higher warming-led increases in post-anthesis biomass production and 1000-grain weight were found in the new varieties compared to the old ones. Meanwhile, a significant improvement in plant productivity was noted due to wheat breeding during the past six decades, while no significant difference in the length of entire growth period was found among the varieties released in different eras. The results demonstrate that historical wheat breeding might have enhanced winter wheat productivity and adaptability through exploiting the positive effects rather than mitigating the negative impacts of warming on wheat growth in North China.

The knowledge of climate change effects on variations of winter wheat yields are crucial for productions. Our objectives were to investigate the relationship between yield-related indices of winter wheat and the related climatic variables (selected using variance inflation factors) at the 20 sites of Xinjiang, China over 1981–2017. The background of climate and yield changes was analyzed from temporal and spatial respects. The number of independent climatic variables was selected with the variance inflation factor method to remove the multicollinear feature. The Pearson correlation was conducted between the first difference values of climatic variables and yield-related indices of winter wheat (namely plant height, growth period duration, 1000-kernel weight, kernel number per ear, biomass and yield) to find the key climatic variables that impacted winter wheat growth and yields. The multi-variate linear and nonlinear functions were established step by step using the selected key climatic variables. The best function was determined for each site (significant for p < 0.05). From the results, there were general wetter and warmer trends of the climatic variables. Correspondingly, shortened winter wheat phenology and increased growth and yields were observed for most sites. Still, the climatic trends had mixed effects on winter wheat yields. The effects of precipitation, mean air temperature and relative humidity on plant height and growth period duration agreed well. Different sites had different major climatic drivers for winter wheat growth or yields, and the best functions of growth and yields could be linearly or nonlinearly, mostly described by multi-variate functions. The winter wheat growth or yield indices were also found to be closely connected with the soil water content status at the eight sites. The relationship between winter wheat growth or yield and climate provided useful references for forecasting crop production and for projecting the impact of future climate changes.

AbstractStudy on soil nutrient variability and its effect on the growth and development of crop under traditional tillage mode is the foundation to comprehensively implement the precision agriculture policy on the field scale and crop excellent management. In this paper, a winter wheat field of 28.5 hm2 under traditional cultivation model in Tianzhuang town of Huantai county was selected as the research area. Sampling by mesh point method (60×60m), the variation characteristics of soil available nitrogen (AN), available phosphorus (AP) and available potassium (AK) in the before sowing, reviving stage, jointing stage, filling stage of winter wheat were analyzed by the method of geostatistics and GIS. At the same time, Pearson correlation analysis was used to study the response of wheat growth and development to soil nutrient variation. As the growth period goes by, 1) each nutrient showed low-high-low and moderate variability. AN and AK had the highest content at reviving stage, while AP at jointing stage, as turning point. The order of variability of each nutrient was AN>AP>AK. 2) The difference of nutrient variation first increased and then decreased, and showed medium to strong spatial correlation.Three nutrients in the before sowing stage were strong spatial correlation, and the reviving stage was medium spatial correlation, to the jointing and filling stages, AN was medium spatial correlation, AP and AK were strong spatial correlation. The spatial correlation of each nutrients was the weakest in the reviving stage, and AN was the strongest in the before sowing stage, while AP and AK were strongest in the jointing stage. The spatial correlation of each soil nutrients decreased from before sowing to reviving stage, jointing stage to filling stage, and the spatial correlation increased from reviving stage to jointing stage. 3) Soil nutrient content first increased and then decreased, and the grade of nutrient gradually decreased. 4) The correlation between soil nutrients and wheat growth was gradually increasing. AN had the highest correlation with wheat growth, followed by AK and AP lowest. The effect of soil nutrients on the growth of wheat at the reviving stage was higher than that of the current nutrient, and the growth of wheat at jointing stage was mainly influenced by the current nutrient, while the growth of wheat at the filling period was both influenced by the nutrient content of the last and the current period; the date to supplement fertilizer should be postponed properly. In this study, the soil nutrient dynamics and its influence on the growth of wheat during the winter wheat growth period under the traditional field model were well understood, which could provide a theoretical basis for the precision management of soil nutrients in the northern winter wheat area with relatively uniform planting environment and cultivation management.

The effect of the legume Townsville stylo (Stylosanthes humilis) on soil nitrogen status was studied under mown plots with different conditions of establishment and fertilizer application on a solodic soil in north- east Queensland. Increase in soil total nitrogen 0-7.5 cm of 180 kg N per ha and total nitrogen accession (plant and soil) of 460 kg N per ha was measured over a four year period where the legume was sown into existing spear grass and fertilized with superphosphate at 375 kg per ha per year. Soil nitrogen increases did not occur until the pasture was legume dominant and main increases took place where superphosphate was applied. Under these conditions there was also a dry season accumulation of soil nitrate nitrogen.

Sewage sludge is an effective fertilizer in many soil types. When applied as an amendment, sludge introduces, in addition to organic matter, plant nutrients into the soil. When applied for cropland as a fertilizer, the mass loading of sewage sludge is customarily determined by inputs of N and/or P required to support optimal plant growth and a successful harvest. This study aims to examine the changes in organic matter contents and nitrogen forms in sludge-amended soils, as well as the growth of corn and faba bean plants. The main results indicated that there were higher responses to the corn and faba bean yields when sludge was added. Levels of organic carbon in soil were higher after maize harvest and decreased significantly after harvesting of beans, and were higher in sludge amended soils than unmodified soils, indicating the residual effect of sludge in soil. NO3−-N concentrations were generally higher in the soil after maize harvest than during the plant growth period, but this trend was not apparent in bean soil. The amounts of NH4+-N were close in the soil during the growth period or after the maize harvest, while they were higher in the soil after the bean harvest than they were during the growth period. Total nitrogen amounts were statistically higher in the soil during the growth period than those collected after the corn harvest, while they were approximately close in the bean soil. The total nitrogen amount in corn and bean leaves increased significantly in plants grown on modified sludge soil. There were no significant differences in the total nitrogen levels of the maize and beans planted on the treated soil.
