Abstract: In this study, the effect of cropping patterns of different flood-avoiding plants on greenhouse gas emission in the downstream of Yangtze River was studied and the basis for selecting regional low-carbon agriculture crop patterns was provided. The emission rules of CO2, CH4 and N2O under the cropping patterns of wheat-rice (WRR), yellow heart cabbage-water bamboo (WZR), yellow heart cabbage-soybean-water chestnuts (WECR), cress-celery bud-rice (CCRR) and lotus root (LR) were analyzed by the method of closed chamber technique. The results showed that the emission of CO2 followed the order of summer>autumn>spring>winter, and CH4 and N2O followed the order of summer>autumn; CO2 emissions were not significantly different among the cropping patterns of WECR, WRR and CCRR, but were all higher than that of WZR and LR; N2O emissions of WRR, CCRR and LR were significantly higher than that of WZR and WECR; CH4 emission of LR was significantly higher than that of CCRR, but CH4 emissions of WZR, WECR and WRR were significantly lower than that of LR and CCRR. The order of greenhouse effect was WRR>CCRR>WECR>LR>WZR, which suggested that the cropping pattern of yellow heart cabbage-water bamboo (WZR) had the lowest greenhouse effect and it was the better production pattern in the Yangtze River Flooding Area.
