The seed-setting rate, grain filling degree and grain yield of YLY6 and SY63 were significantly higher than those of LYPJ. The export and transformation percentages of the matter in culms and sheaths of YLY6 and SY63 were significantly higher than those of LYPJ. Activities of sucrose synthase, adenosine diphosphoglucose pyrophosphorylase, starch synthase and starch branching enzyme in grains were higher for YLY6 and SY63 than for LYPJ, and were very significantly correlated with maximum grain filling rate, mean grain filling rate, grain filling degree and grain weight. The spikelet number, grain yield and total sink load per area of vascular bundle and phloem of YLY6 and SY63 were significantly smaller than those of LYPJ, and the greater the load, the lower seed-setting rate and the poorer grain filling. The transportation rate per area phloem of YLY6 was greater than that of LYPJ or SY63. The results suggest that YLY6 possesses strong source, great sink activity and efficient flow, which lay a physiological base for its high seed-setting rate and good grain filling.展开更多

The new maize hybrid Hengzao 8 was selected as an experimental material, and varieties Huamei 1 and Zhengdan 958 were selected as CK. The changes in grain size, water content, dry weight and grain filling characteristics during grain filling process were studied, and the yield components were analyzed. The grain sizes of the 3 maize materials increased rapidly within 20 d after pollination and reached their peak values on the 45^th d after pollination. Hengzao 8 had the biggest grains, while Zhengdan 958 showed the smallest grains. The 3 maize materials showed high growth speeds of dry matter from the 15^th to the 55^th d after pollination, Hengzao 8 being the fastest and Zhengdan 958 being the slowest. The growth speeds of grain dry matter dropped afterwards. The grain filling rates of the 3 materials fit the unimodal distribution; and Hengzao 8 presented the highest peak value, while Zhengdan 958 exhibited the lowest peak value. Grain size was positively correlated with water amount and negatively correlated with water content, and the grain filling rate was positively correlated with water amount. Regression analysis revealed that when the water contents of the 3 materials reached 57%, grain filling rates reached their peak values. The Logistic model showed that the maximum grain filling rate （Gmax） and the mean filling rate （Gmean） were higher in Hengzao 8 whose active grain filling stage, early stage （T1） , middle stage （T2） and late stage （T3） were shorter than other 2 varieties. The differences in 1 000-grain weight between the 3 materials were responsible for the differences in the yield. The grain filling characteristics of Hengzao 8 are decisive for achieving early maturation and high yield.展开更多
