Effect of Depth of Transplantation on the Growth and Yield of the Rice Plant

Saburo FUNAKOSHI Japanese Journal of Crop Science 1962. doi:10.1626/jcs.31.69

Other claims from this paper (16)

Intervention effect Deep transplantation delayed the stage of maximum tiller number in rice.
Intervention effect Deep transplantation slightly delayed the heading and ripening stages in rice.
Intervention effect In the early growth stage, deep transplantation decreased plant height and tiller number in rice compared with shallow transplantation.
Intervention effect At the ripening stage, no difference was found between deep and shallow transplantation in plant height, stem length and leaf number on the main stem.
Intervention effect Deeply transplanted plots could not catch up with shallowly transplanted plots in tiller number.
Intervention effect Deeply transplanted plots ended with a small number of heads compared with shallowly transplanted plots.
Intervention effect Deeply transplanted plots had high ratios of effective tillers despite their lower tiller number.
Association The number of heads was negatively correlated with the number of spikelets per head.
Association The number of heads was positively correlated with the number of spikelets per unit area.
Association The percentage of ripened grains and the 1,000-grain weight decreased as the number of heads increased.
Intervention effect No significant difference in yield was found between deep and shallow transplantation, though yield was slightly better with shallow transplantation.
Observation Clear compensatory reactions were observed between yield components of rice.
Intervention effect A shallowly transplanted plant always showed vigorous growth, high yield and a large individual variation.
Intervention effect Even with little yield difference between transplanting depths, plant growth was considerably affected.
Recommendation The authors suggest an optimum transplanting depth of about 3 cm, depending on cultivation conditions.
Observation Ill-effects were found when rice was transplanted above 5 cm depth.
