Abstract: To explore the effect of water management on cadmium (Cd) content in rice, a pot experiment with 6 early-rice cultivars and 4 late-rice cultivars was conducted to study the effects of drought stress on grain Cd content in rice under different growth stage, including soil drying at tillering stage (T1), soil drying at booting stage (T2), soil drying at heading stage (T3), soil drying at milk stage (T4), soil drying at dough stage (T5), and whole growth season flooding (CK). The results showed that: the main effects of cultivar and water management as well as their interactive effects on Cd content in polished rice were significant (P<0.01); the Cd content in polished rice followed the sequence of T3>T1>T2>T4>T5>CK; W2 (‘C-liangyou 7’), W12 (‘Xiangwanxian 13’), W8 (‘Jinyou 59’) with low and stable Cd content in grain, can be widely planted in slight pollution soil. Significant (P<0.01) difference was observed in polished rice Cd content among cultivar types. Super hybrid rice had the highest Cd content, followed by conventional rice and hybrid rice. Growth duration had no significant effect on Cd content in polished rice.
