본 연구는 벼 담수직파재배에서 식물생장억제제인 IPM(Iprobenfos-metconazole)을 벼의 출수기 전에 처리함으로 써 벼의 생육과 도복경감효과를 구명하기 위하여 수행하였다. 1. 출수기에 간장은 식물생장억제제를 처리한 구에서 무처리구보다 간장이 단축되는 결과를 보였으며, 출수전 30일에 처리하였을 때 가장 단축효과가 컸고, 하위 4절간의 단축율이 가장 높았다. 2. 출수후 20일에 지엽의 엽색도를 조사한 결과 IPM 처리구는 무처리구에 비하여 높았고, 엽중 질소 농도는 IPM 처리구가 무처리구에 낮았으나 규산 함량은 무처리구에 비하여 높았고, 규산/질소 비율이 증가하였다. 3. 하위 절간(3~4)의 좌절중은 무처리구에 비하여 IPM 처리구가 유의하게 높았으며, 도복지수는 무처리구에 비하여 낮아지는 것으로 조사되었고 포장도복도 크게 경감되었다. 4. 수량 및 수량구성요소를 조사한 결과 IPM 처리구는 무처리구에 비하여 도복이 되지 않아서 등숙률과 천립중이 높아짐으로서 수량 증수 효과가 있었다.
Lodging in the direct seeded rice cultivation on flooded paddy is being severe problem due to the lower production and grain quality at ripening stage. This study was conducted to examine the effect of Iprobenfos-metconazole (IPM) treated 50, 40 and 30 days before heading respectively as a plant regulator to reduce the lodging at ripening stage of direct seeding rice cultivation. The culm length treated with IPM, especially the 4th culm internode, was shortened more than with untreated plot, and the most effective time was at 30 days before heading. At 20 days after heading the flag leaves colour showed more greening than in the untreated leaves and the plot with IPM treatment was to be maintained longer compared to the control plot. The Nitrogen concentration of leaves with IPM was lower than in the control plot, and $SiO_2$ contents were higher than in the untreated plot and $SiO_2/N$ ratio was increased more in the IPM plot than in the control plot. The breaking strength of 3rd and 4th culm internode with IPM treatment was higher than in the untreated plot, and the lodging index was reduced in the IPM plot significantly and the field lodging also was reduced. As the results the rice production in the IPM plot was increased more due to be higher ripening ratio and seed grain weight compared to the untreated plot to be occurred the field lodging.
