| Summary: | Temperature is a critical environmental factor affecting the growth and development of rice, especially under the backdrop of global climate change, where temperature fluctuations have become increasingly significant in influencing the growth cycle and development rate of rice. To comprehensively assess the impact of temperature variations on the different growth stages of rice, this study integrates data from multiple relevant studies published between 1980 and 2024. By selecting research focused on the influence of temperature changes on the rice development cycle, a meta-analysis is conducted to systematically evaluate the effects of temperature on the growth rates of rice during its six key developmental stages. The results indicate that increased temperatures significantly accelerate the development rate of rice during all growth stages, with a general acceleration in growth speed at different developmental phases. The study further found that when the temperature ranges from 28 °C to 32 °C, the growing conditions for rice are most favorable, exhibiting the optimal development rate. This study provides scientific evidence for understanding how temperature changes affect rice growth and development and offers valuable references for rice cultivation management and climate adaptation strategies. |
