Abstract: We studied the characteristics of Echinochloa and its response to variation of rice yield and soil properties under long-term fertilization in paddy field of yellow soil, based on a 23-year long-term fertilization experiment in Scientific Oberving and Experimental Station of Arable Land Conservation and Agricultural Environment (Guizhou), Ministry of Agriculture. The occurrence characteristics of Echinochloa (density, panicle number per plant, totle panicles, seed number per panicle, 1000-seed mass and seed mass per panicle) of ten treatments including CK, N, PK, NK, NP, NPK, 1/4MNP, 1/2MNP, M (manure), MNPK were examined. The results showed that the characteristics of Echinochloa significantly varied with long-term different fertilization. The highest density, panicle number per plant and total panicles of Echinochloa were attained in the MNPK treatment, followed by the 1/4MNP treatment. Compared with the NPK treatment, the density of Echinochloa was significantly decreased in no fertilizer treatment (CK) and unbalanced chemical fertilizer treatments (N, PK, NK, NP). The panicle number per plant significantly increased in organic fertilizer treatments (1/4MNP, 1/2MNP, M, MNPK). Both the density and total panicles of Echinochloa were positively correlated with rice yield. The occurrence characteristics of Echinochloa were positively correlated with soil organic matter, total N, total P, available N, available P and available K. Results from path analysis showed that soil total N had a direct positive effect on panicle number per plant and soil total P content was the main factor affecting the density and total panicles of Echinochloa. Soil available K content was the factor with strongest influence on seed number per panicle and seed mass per panicle. We concluded that the occurrence characteristics of Echinochloa varied with long-term different fertilization. The density, panicle number per plant and total panicles of Echinochloa could be increased with appling cow manure. Soil total P was the direct influencing factor for the variation of density and total panicle of Echinochloa in paddy field of yellow soil.
