摘要: Coordinating the spatial distribution of crop roots with soil nutrients, along with selecting appropriate types of fertilizers, is an effective strategy to enhance root nutrient absorption and increase crop yield. In Xinjiang's current surface drip irrigation practices for rice (Oryza sativa L.), premature leaf senescence and N deficiency are common issues, resulting in decreased yields. This study investigated whether different N forms under subsurface drip irrigation can modulate rice root morphological strategies to delay senescence in later growth stages, enhancing rice N uptake and yield formation. A field experiment compared the effects of different drip irrigation positions (surface drip irrigation at the surface, DI0; subsurface drip irrigation at 10 cm depth, DI10) and N forms (urea N, UN; ammonium N, AN) in four combination treatments (DI0-UN, DI0-AN, DI10-UN, DI10-AN) on rice root morphology, aboveground growth, and yield formation. During the grain-filling stage, the total root length (RL) and root number (RN) in the DI10-AN treatment were higher than in other treatments. Root vitality increased by 23.24-133.72% during the later filling stages, while the root decline rate decreased by 1.16-32.80%. The root configuration parameters beta in the DI10-AN treatment were superior to those in other treatments, indicating that roots tend to distribute deeper in the soil. The DI10-AN treatment reduced Malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and increased Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) activity, thereby alleviating water and N stress on the leaves in later growth stages and maintaining higher photosynthetic parameter values. The DI10-AN treatment significantly increased N absorption (14.37-52.88%) and yield (13.32-46.31%). Correlation analysis showed that RL, RN, and root activity (Ra) were significantly positively correlated with transpiration rate (Tr), intercellular CO2 concentration (Ci), N uptake (NUP), one thousand-kernel weight (TKW), seed setting rate (SR), Efficient panicle (EP), and yield (r > 0.90). This study presents a new rice drip fertigation technique that combines subsurface irrigation with ammonium to enhance root growth and increase crop productivity.
