Winter wheat freeze injury is one of the most serious damages in northern China. Timely and accurately monitoring freeze injury can provide quantitative damage assessment and decision support for after-injury field management. Freeze injury stress is directly related to the deviation of winter wheat population. This paper aimed to monitor the spatial-temporal distribution as well as the severit...

18 1 (mean 28 mg kg). Spring wheat cultivars pos19 sessed higher Fe-grain concentrations than winter 20 wheats. By contrast, winter wheats showed higher 21 Zn-grain concentrations than spring genotypes. 22 Within spring wheat, a strongly significant positive 23 correlation was found between Fe and Zn. Grain 24 protein content was also significantly (P < 0.001) 25 correlated with grain Zn and Fe...

The object of the study is to analyze the spatial-temporal variability of soil nutrients in the winter wheat growing season, and try to reveal the dynamic change of soil nutrients in winter wheat field. Measurements of soil nitrate nitrogen (NN), total nitrogen (TN) and available potassium (AK) in wheat field were taken at 132 sample points in April and June, 2006. Classical statistical method ...

Nine cultivars of winter wheat were compared in organic and conventional crop rotation systems. Bread-making quality was evaluated using three parameters [thousand-kernel weight (TKW) in g, volume weight in g/l, protein content in %]. Grain yield, TKW and protein content of winter wheat in organic cropping system were significantly lower as compared to any intensity in conventional cropping sys...
