Abstract:

To explore the regulation effect of potassium (K) and silicon (Si) coupling on yield, two oil flax varieties were used to study the effects of K (0, 52.5 and 105 kg K2O/hm2) and Si (0 and 90 kg SiO2/hm2) amount on dry matter accumulation (DMA) and grain filling (GF) characteristics by split plot design. The results showed that there were significant differences in DMA and GF characteristics between the varieties. K application significantly increased the DMA after emergence stage, which was increased by 11.85%-20.49% on average under the two dosage levels than that under no K treatment. K amount increase enhanced the growth promoting effect during the period from branching to green fruit; K increased the average grain filling rate, prolonged the duration of rapid growth period, slow growth period and active grouting period, and increased grain yield by 10.79%-19.52%. Si had no significant main effect on DMA and GF, however, low K supply accompanied by Si increased DMA by 27.96%, and the interaction between K and Si affected GF rate of rapid growth period. Under the same soil fertility condition as the test area, K fertilizer dosage of 52.5 kg K2O/hm2 has a significant growth-promoting and yield-increasing effect, and low K supply combined with Si fertilizer has a certain growth-promoting effect.
