The shortage of water resources and the irrational application of nitrogen fertilizer restrict the synergistic enhancement of yield and water- and fertilizer-use efficiencies of wheat in the Huang-Huai-Hai region. In this study, we conducted an experiment following two-factor split zone design with three irrigation levels and four nitrogen application rates. The relative water content of the 0-40 cm soil layer was supplemented to 65% (W), 75% (W), and 85% (W) of field water capacity at the jointing and anthesis stages of wheat.

To clarify the appropriate rate of phosphorus application and physiological mechanism for promoting wheat tillering and efficient utilization of phosphorus fertilizer with supplementary irrigation, we used 'Jimai 22' wheat variety as the test material, to set up three phosphorus application treatments, including low (90 kg PO·hm, P), medium (135 kg PO·hm, P), and high (180 kg PO·hm, P) application rates, with no phosphorus application as the control (P). We increased the relative soil water content of each treatment at join-ting stage and anthesis stage to 70%, and measured the area of tiller node, the content of endogenous hormones, the number of tillers in each tiller position, photosynthetic parameters, the distribution of C assimilates in each stem and tiller, as well as the grain yield and partial productivity of phosphate fertilizer. The results showed that compared with P and P treatments, P significantly increased the area of tiller node and the trans-zeatin (tZ), the photosynthetic parameters of the uppermost expanded leaves of the main stem, the total tillers per plant, and the distribution of C assimilates in each tiller.

Scholars have proposed the practice of split nitrogen fertilizer application (SNFA), which has proven to be an effective approach for enhancing nitrogen use efficiency. However, the combined effects of SNFA on wheat plant nitrogen use efficiency, ammonia (NH) emission flux, as well as the rates of nitrification and denitrification in different ecosystems remain unclear. Meanwhile, few studies have sought to understand the effects of the split nitrogen fertilizer method under water-saving irrigation technology conditions on nitrogen loss.
