Abstract: In order to understand the changes of photosynthetic characteristics in top three leaves and its relationship with yield in the genetic improvement of rice, 33 typical japonica rice cultivars released from 1958 to 2005 were planted under field conditions. to determine net photosynthetic rate (Pn), photosynthetic capacity and leaf sources capacity (LSC) after heading stage. The result indicated that the Pn, photosynthetic capacity and LSC of flag-leaf at heading had the most contribution to plant photosynthetic capacity, which was account to 42.45%, followed by those of top 2nd leaf with 28.27% and those of top 3rd leaf with 15.69%. While, within 47 years genetic improvement of rice cultivars, the increase of Pn, photosynthetic capacity and LSC of the top 3rd leaf were the maximum, and those of flag-leaf was the minimum.The correlations of Pn, photosynthetic capacity and LSC of flag-leaf and top 2nd leaf with yield were not obvious enough to reach significant level after heading. The Pn of top 3rd leaf and the photosynthetic capacity of plant were significant positive correlation with yield at heading and 10 days after heading. The photosynthetic capacity and LSC of top 3rd leaf were highly significant positive correlation with yield after heading, and those of flag-leaf and top 2nd leaf were not. Our studies indicate that the significant increase of Pn, photosynthetic capacity and LSC in the top 3rd leaf is mainly resulted from the yield genetic improvement of rice cultivars for 47 years in Jilin province, but there has been no obvious change in photosynthetic capacity of flag-leaf.

Key words: Rice, Genetic improvement, Top three leaves, Photosynthetic capacity
