Abstract: 【Objective】Two rice varieties were exposed to different levels of external ammonium ion (NH4+) condition to examine the responses and its differences. The research will further reveal the mechanisms of nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) in different absorption properties by analyzing different performances and absorption characteristics.【Method】Two rice varieties of QLSM (High-NUE) and HK3 (Low-NUE) were cultivated hydroponically, and then treated with 3 NH4+ concentrations (Low, Middle, High) for 15 days at tillering stage. Furthermore, the morphological characteristics, nitrogen content, nitrogen accumulation, root activity, root respiration and root transmembrane NH4 + fluxes were determined.【Result】The results showed that QLSM grew well under low NH4+ condition and showed no significant difference with its control in plant height and tillers. It showed that the total dry matter weight and root N accumulation increased by 25.9% and 74.2% in QLSM, respectively. Whereas, low NH4+ condition significantly reduced plant height, tillers, total dry matter weight and root N accumulation of HK3 by 10.1%, 26.4%, 19.5% and 2.3%, respectively. Furthermore, compared with CK, N content in roots and shoots of the two varieties decreased under low NH4+ condition. Meanwhile, the root activity of QLSM and HK3 sharply reduced by 76.0% and 78.2%, and the root respiration intensity also significantly decreased by 29.5% and 33.8%. The results suggested that root activity and root respiration intensity did not contribute to NH4+ absorption under low NH4+ condition. Moreover, under the condition of low NH4+, NH4+ influx was more pronounced in QLSM, while HK3 showed NH4+ insensitivity in the root meristem zone.【Conclusion】It is concluded that high NH4+ absorptive capacity under low NH4 + is associated with enhanced NH4+ influx in the root meristem zone.
