Abstract: Public attentions have been increasingly paid to the slow-release fertilizer (sulfur-coated urea, or SCU) which has developed quickly during the last decade. In this research, a field experiment with 270 kg ha-1 N fertilizer application was conducted in two kinds of soil (sandy soil and clay soil) using the early maturing late japonica variety Nanjing44 as materials. The effects of fertilizing with sulfur-coated urea alone and mixing application of SCU and conventional urea (PU) on grain yield and plant growth were examined and compared. Results showed that compared with the treatment of PU applied alone, the treatments of SCU2, SCU2+PU(2:1), SCU1+PU(2:1) and SCU1+PU(1:1) showed significant increase in the rice yield, N accumulation, uptake and use efficiency, dry matter accumulation, ratio of stem-sheath usable carbohydrate to spikelets per panicle, and root α-NA oxidation ability that maintained a high level with a small reduction tendency. The grain yield, N uptake and use efficiency as well as dry matter accumulation in clay soil were slightly higher than those in sandy soil, and the root α-NA oxidation ability at heading and 10 days after heading were lower in clay soil than in sandy soil, while no apparent difference was found at 20 or 30 days after heading.In conclusion, the application of sulfur-coated urea or its combination with normal urea may both meet the basic needs of rice growth. Combination of SCU1 and PU has better effect than either fertilizer applied solely, the treatment of SCU2 has the best outcome, which is followed by treatment of SCU2+PU(2:1), and treatment of SCU2+PU(1:1) does not show a significant effect.
