Abstract: To study the physiological effects of small root zonel plants of a hybrid wheat variety （Triticum aestivnmL.cv. Meiyou 4） were grown in small pots （1 litre） or large pots （8 litre） with 1ow nitrogen （50 mg kg-1 soil）and high nitrogen （200 mg kg-1 soil）. Restricting root zone decreased dry weight of plants at the stages ofstem elongation and flowering, compared to those of control plants grown in the large pots （P＜0.01）. Sprayingof 6-benzylaminopurine （50 μmol L-1） increased dry weight of plants and chlorop hyll concentration in leaves.Restriction of root zone decreased the concentrations of total nitrogen, chlorophyll and soluble protein in thefiag leaf and acce1erated senescence of the leaves. Supply of high nitrogen delayed senescence of the fiag leafThe results suggested that the shortage of nutrients, especially nitrogen deficiency was the primary reasonfor the decreased growth of plant in the treatment of root zone restriction.
