Abstract: |
Rice cultivation is an important source of methane(CH4) and nitrous oxide(N2O), major components of greenhouse gases(GHG). Different rice cultivars may have different GHG emission potentials. In this study, 16 rice cultivars that are currently widely planted in Taihu Lake region were selected to evaluate their CH4 and N2O emissions. Results showed that a significant positive linear relationship was observed between rice grain yield and seasonal cumulative CH4 emissions. Under conventional irrigation conditions, seasonal cumulative CH4 and N2O emissions and grain yield were higher for japonica cultivars than for indica ones. In comparison with conventional rice cultivars, hybrid rice cultivars showed higher seasonal cumulative CH4 emissions and grain yield, but lower N2O emissions. Cultivars with high yield and low GHG emissions were Zaoyuxiangjing and Xiushui 134 of conventional japonica cultivars, Huayou 14, Qiuyoujinfeng, and Yongyou 9 of hybrid japonica cultivars, and Hanyou 113 and Tianyouhuazhan of hybrid indica cultivars. Furthermore, Zaoyuxiangjing, Hanyou 8 and Hanyou 113 were drought-resistant and would perform better than others under water shortage environments. |
