With the improvement of rice cultivars, root dry weight and the ratio of root to shoot were increased, but the amount of root bleeding sap was reduced.

随品种的演进，抽穗期根重以及根冠比提高，但根系伤流液量减少。

The higher the precipitation, the greater the root depth, total root length and root diameter, the more lateral roots and the lower ratio of root to shoot.

降雨量越大，根系越深、总根长越大、根系直径越大、侧根越多、根冠比越低。
