Effects of Slow-Release Urea Combined with Fulvic Acid on the Development and Grain Filling Characteristics of Longzi Black Highland Barley
In order to provide theoretical basis for the high-yield cultivation of Longzi black highland barley,we studied the effects of different slow-release urea combined with fulvic acid on the growth and grain filling characteristics of Longzi black highland barley.The dynamic changes of grain phenotype and grain color in filling period of Longzi black highland barley were analyzed by using random block design and artificial measurement combined with computer image recognition technology.The results showed that the surface area,length and width of the grain of Longzi black highland barley could be increased by the treatment of each slow-release urea combined with fulvic acid,so as to increase the grain weight and the 1000-grain weight.The color change of the seeds was mainly at 14 d after anthesis,when the seeds began coloring,and the color deepened with the progress of filling.At 28 d after anthesis,the seed embryos began coloring,until the maturity stage,the whole seeds were colored,and the color reached the deepest.The maximum filling rate(Rmax),the gradual filling rate(Ri)and the rapid filling rate(R2)were positively correlated with the 1000-grain weight.There was a significant positive correlation between filling rate(R3)and 1000-grain weight at slow growth stage.Increasing filling rate and extending filling duration was an effective measure to increase the yield of black highland barley.Slow-release urea combined with fulvic acid improved the grain filling capacity and 1000-grain weight of black barley.
