Problems in collecting the straw were analyzed taking into account meteorological data of the rice and wheat harvesting seasons in the region. Results show：（1） Currently, the main handling way of rice and wheat straw was directly returning to field. The peasant households of straw returning from investigated townships A and B respectively occupied 22.01% and 28.75% of investigation households, and both of the two townships had a considerable portion of the straw wasted or improperly disposed. In township B, over 50% of the farmer households surveyed failed to make sure of any of the straw, and as high as over55% of the straw was discarded or burnt.（2） During the rice and wheat harvesting seasons, the ten-day precipitation was among 7.21-87.28 mm, and the ten-day precipitation days were among 1.53-5.00 d. Such weather not only affected timely harvesting of rice and wheat, but also seriously impeded baling, transportation and storage of straw.（3） As the crops must be harvested in a relatively short and concentrated time period, large volumes of straw were turned out within a few days.Moreover, harvesting of the first crop often coincided with sowing, leaving little time available for straw collection.（4） Straw collection was very low in economic benefit.A farmer can only get 60-90 RMB per day from straw collection and transportation,which was much lower than what they can get by working as migrant workers in the city.（5） Machines designed for straw collection were rare and those now used in the operation were low in efficiency and needed to be improved technically,which directly affected the efficiency of straw collection. The above-listed findings indicates that time shortage, negative weather condition, low benefit and low mechanization level were major factors affecting straw collection. To solve the problems,the following proposals were brought forth, that is, improving the economic benefit of straw collection as a driving force, accelerating the research and development of rice and wheat sheaf-binding reaping machine, and setting up a long-term operational mechanism for straw recovery, in the hope that this study may provide some useful ideas to help solve the problems.展开更多

Genes encoding the HMW-GS and LMW-GS components were located on the long arms and the short arms of homoeologous group 1 chromosomes, respectively. HMW-GS components in 5 129 accessions of wheat germplasms were analyzed systematically, including 3 459 landraces and 1 670 modern varieties. These accessions were chosen as candidate core collections to represent the genetic diversity of Chinese common wheat ( Triticum aestivum) germplasms documented and conserved in the National Gene Bank. These candidate core collections covered the 10 wheat production regions in China. In the whole country, the dominating alleles at the three loci are Glu-A1b (null), Glu-B1b (7 + 8), and Glu-D1a (2 + 12), respectively. The obvious difference between the land race and the modern variety is the dramatic frequency increase of alleles Glu-A1a (1), Glu-B1c (7 + 9), Glu-B1h (14 + 15), Glu-D1d (5 + 10) and allele cording 5 + 12 subunits in the later ones. In the whole view, there is minor difference on the genetic(allelic)richness between the landrace and the modern variety at Glu-1, which is 28 and 30 respectively. However, the genetic dispersion index (Simpson index) based on allelic variation and frequencies at Glu-A1, Glu-B1 and Glu-D1 suggested that the modern varieties had much higher genetic diversity than the landraces. This revealed that various isolating mechanisms (such as auto-gamous nature, low migration because of undeveloped transposition system) limited the gene flow and exchange between populations of the landraces, which led up to some genotypes localized in very small areas. Modern breeding has strongly promoted gene exchanges and introgression between populations and previous isolated populations. In the three loci, Glu-Bl has the highest genetic diversity , then Glu-D1, while Glu-A1 always keeps the lowest genetic diversity. In the landrace, the three regions with the highest allelic richness are Huanghuai Winter Wheat Region, Northwest Spring Wheat Region and Southwestern Winter Wheat Region. For the bred varieties, the highest allelic richness existed in Southwest Winter Wheat Region, Huanghuai Winter Wheat Region, Low & Middle Branch Winter Wheat Region of Yangtze River. Introduction and utilization of foreign varieties in cross breeding has had great effects on the allelic components and frequency of the three loci, which greatly affected the genetic dispersion index. This has made 'population' of the modern variety quite different from that of the landrace.展开更多
