Abstract

We investigated the effects of planting density on biomass and nitrogen accumulation of cotton,and the relationships with yield and fiber quality.A field experiment was conducted using cotton cultivars Liaomian 19 and NuCTON 33B in Liaoyang City,Liaoning Province(latitude 41°26'N,longitude 123°14'E),in 2007 and 2008.The general pattern of cotton biomass and nitrogen accumulation followed a logistic curve;planting density was able to change biomass and nitrogen accumulation,and subsequently influence yield and fiber quality.The beginning and end of the high speed accumulation stage for nitrogen was about 10 days earlier than that for biomass;indicating that nitrogen and biomass are not synchronously accumulated.Fiber yield and quality were highest at a planting density of 9.75×104 plants·hm-2 for both cultivars.This density also gave the highest speed of accumulation of cotton dry matter and nitrogen,the longest duration of acceleration period,and the highest yield.A reduction in fiber yield would be caused by planting with excessive density.
