    High yield and high quality are the key goals of the rice industry, but there is an obvious contradiction between these two traits, and it is very difficult to gather the two traits on the same variety by conventional breeding techniques. Our research team successfully bred an ultra-high-yielding and high-quality early-maturing indica-japonica hybrid rice Zheyou 915 by combining molecular breeding technology with indica-japonica heterosis utilization method. This variety has shown very high yield potential in regional trials and production trials. The quality of rice is in line with the third grade of the ministry standard of edible rice, and the other indicators in the evaluation index are in line with the first grade of the ministry standard except for the alkali elimination value. The whole growth period was 146.5-156.5 days, and it was 0.3-0.9 days earlier than Jiayou 5. In 2023, it will pass the national variety approval and is suitable for promotion and application in southern japonica rice planting areas such as Zhejiang, Shanghai, Anhui, Hubei, and southern Jiangsu. According to the characteristics of Zheyou 915, this paper proposes a key high-yield cultivation technology to improve the effective panicle and increase the number of grains per panicle.

    Abstract425)   HTML16)    PDF (1486KB)(904)      

    In this study, three treatments were set up: straw not returning (CK), straw returning (T1) and straw returning with organic substance composting inoculants (T2), and the effects of organic substance composting inoculants on wheat yield, soil alkaline hydrolyzable nitrogen, available phosphorus, available potassium content, soil enzyme activity and microbial number under the condition of straw returning were investigated through field experiments. The results showed that there was no significant difference in the number of panicle and grains per panicle between treatments, but the application of organic substance composting inoculants significantly increased the 1 000-grain weight of wheat. Compared with CK, T2 treatment significantly increased the number of soil bacteria and decreased the number of fungi. Under the condition of straw returning to the field, the activities of neutral phosphoconvertase, sucrase and catalase in the soil were significantly increased under the application of organic substance composting inoculants. The contents of available phosphorus, available potassium, total nitrogen, organic matter and organic carbon increased significantly after the application of organic substance composting inoculants. The above results showed that under the condition of straw returning to the field, organic substance composting inoculants accelerated the decomposition rate of straw in the soil, increased the number of soil microorganisms and soil enzyme activities, promoted the dissociation of mineral nutrients in the soil, increased the content of available mineral nutrients in the soil, improved the rhizosphere soil environment of wheat, and promoted the growth of wheat.

    WEN Wei, PAN Jianqing, YU Bo, XIE Jing, MA Junwei, YANG Yan, WANG Feng
    Journal of Zhejiang Agricultural Sciences    2024, 65 (8): 1838-1842.   DOI: 10.16178/j.issn.0528-9017.20230428
    Abstract601)   HTML5)    PDF (6374KB)(898)      

    This study focuses on the acidification status of typical vineyard soils in Changxing County, Huzhou City, and compares the impacts of two primary methods “organic fertilizer + green manure” and “soil conditioner with humic acid + green manure” on soil acidification, nutrient quality, and grape quality, using conventional fertilization as the control. The results indicated that the “organic fertilizer + green manure (Vulpia myuros)” method had negligible effects on soil pH value, showing no significant influence on exchangeable H+ and total exchangeable acidity, but it significantly reduced the levels of exchangeable Al3+ and Mn. The second method, “soil conditioner with humic acid + green manure”, significantly lowered the pH value, exchangeable H+, exchangeable Al3+, total exchangeable acidity, and exchangeable Mn levels in the soil. Both methods significantly enhanced the soil's organic matter content, cation exchange capacity, and the levels of exchangeable calcium and magnesium, thereby increasing the soil's buffer capacity. These approaches also significantly boosted the grape fruit's soluble sugar, vitamin C, and total free amino acid content, with the “soil conditioner with humic acid + green manure” method showing a greater effect on vitamin C enhancement. Therefore, both primary methods effectively reduce soil acidity and enhance fertility, thereby improving grape quality.

    ZHU Zhenling, CHEN De, YE Xuezhu
    Journal of Zhejiang Agricultural Sciences    2024, 65 (7): 1709-1713.   DOI: 10.16178/j.issn.0528-9017.20240211
    Abstract805)   HTML13)    PDF (1080KB)(876)      

    The comprehensive utilization of straw resources is an important issue in China during the agricultural production process, while returning straw to field after carbonization is one of the important ways to achieve comprehensive utilization of straw. Biochar, as a multifunctional carbon material, has a porous carbon framework structure, abundant oxygen-containing functional groups and inorganic minerals, as well as a large specific surface area and stability. Application of straw derived biochar to the field is beneficial for improving soil physical and chemical properties, enhancing soil fertility, promoting soil carbon sequestration, greenhouse gases mitigation, and pollutant stabilization. Creating a complete standardization system is conducive to the standardization and industrialization development of biochar. However, there have been no reports on the standardization production, testing methods and application of biochar. This review summarizes the research and agricultural application background of straw carbonization and application, and summarizes the existing standards and standardized development status in the fields of straw carbonization and their returning to the field, especially in China. The results indicate that China has initially formed a standardized system based on equipment for biomass carbonization processes, biochar product quality testing, and agricultural applications. However, the standardization system for the application of straw carbonization in agriculture is not yet perfect, and the quality of existing standards is also uneven. Suggestions were put forward to strengthen the research and development of new equipment for biomass carbonization, products and standard substances, testing methods, agricultural application technology specifications, and establish systematic standards.

    By the experiment in a cadmium-contaminated paddy field in Shanghai to study the effects of different agronomic measures on the cadmium content in soil and plants. In the field test, different treatments were sets: variety replacement + optimal fertilization (treatment 1), variety replacement + water regulation+ optimal fertilization (treatment 2), variety replacement + water regulation (treatment 3). Different agronomic combinations measures were compared with conventional rice planting (CK) to explore the effects of different comprehensive technologies on the migration and transformation of different forms of Cd in soil, brown rice and straw. The results showed that compared with CK, the contents of Cd and available Cd in soil and cadmium in brown rice in all treatments decreased. Compared with before the test, the contents of total Cd and available Cd in soil in treatment 2 decreased most significantly, by 12.86% and 18.33%, respectively. The Cd enrichment coefficient of brown rice in treatment 1, 2 and 3 decreased by 43.18%, 51.90% and 25.74%, respectively. Compared with CK, rice yield in treatment 1 increased by 4.9%. In conclusion, the selection of rice varieties with low Cd accumulation, combined application of biochar organic fertilizer and foliar blocking agent can reduce the Cd content in rice and regulate the enrichment and transport of Cd in crops on the basis of maintaining rice yield.

They have the advantages of biodegradability, environmental friendliness, and are effective through multiple mechanisms without easily developing drug resistance. Therefore, they have received widespread attention and become one of the hotspots in the research of new pesticides. This article retrieved the approval status of plantderived fungicides from the China Pesticide Information Network, summarized the registration information of plant derived fungicides in China from January 2009 to August 2023, sorted out the active ingredients, structural characteristics, and mechanisms of action of different types of plant derived fungicides, and summarized the formulation, application methods, and dosage characteristics of the products. We have systematically sorted and analyzed the basic situation of existing registered plant derived fungicides, which provides inspiration for exploring novel plant derived fungicidal active ingredients in the future, and also indicates directions for the development of related new pesticide products and technologies.

    Long-term non-grain utilization leads to soil compaction, soil organic matter content reduction, acidification, salinization, nutrient imbalance and heavy metal pollution and other soil quality degradation, especially the soil layer stripping of seedling base, resulting in thinning or even disappearance of the soil layer, which has a greater impact on soil fertility. In this experiment, the effects of different biomass carbon application rates and combined with commercial organic fertilizer on rice yield and soil fertility were analyzed, so as to obtain a better rapid fertilizer technology model for non-grain cultivated land. The results showed that compared with CK, all treatments increased the contents of alkali-hydrolyzed nitrogen, available potassium and organic matter in rice soil, and the application of biochar combined with 12 t·hm-2 commercial organic fertilizer had a more significant effect on the improvement. It shows that biochar plays a certain role in stabilizing soil pH value and nutrient retention, and plays a positive role in improving rice yield.
