Effects of seeding rates and nitrogen fertilizer managements on photosynthetic productivity and nitrogen utilization in direct-seeded rice by Jiang Mingjin, Ma Jun, Sun Yongjian, Yan Fengjun, Xu Hui, Yang Zhiyuan, Sun Jiawei

“…Correlation analysis indicated that both the photosynthetic efficiency and LAI during heading stage were significantly correlated with grain yield, nitrogen-absorbing ability and nitrogen-utilizing efficiency of rice plants.In summary, when the seeding rate was 22.5 kg/hm² and the ratio of nitrogen application at transplanting stage, tillering stage and booting stage were 40%, 10%, and 50%, respectively, it would lead to gain the relatively high grain yield and higher photosynthetic efficiency, dry matter production capacity and nitrogen utilization efficiency.…”
