In this paper, four rice genotypes showing different leaf mass per area (LMA) are used to explore the effects of nitrogen (N) supplies on rice leaf anatomy and leaf chemical composition as well as their impacts on leaf gas exchange parameters. The results showed that the mass-based and area-based leaf N contents as well as the net photosynthetic rate (A) under high N supply (HN) were all higher than those under a low N supply (LN). However, N supplies had no effect on stomatal conductance, mesophyll conductance, and photosynthetic N use efficiency. Moreover, N supplies had no significant effect on LMA and cell wall thickness. Leaf thickness and leaf density responses to N supplies were inconsistent in different genotypes. Except for the soluble sugar in Huanghuazhan and non-structural carbohydrates (NSC) in Sab Ini, N supplies showed no significant effects on mass-based leaf chemical components (pectic substance, hemicellulose, cellulose, lignin, total cell wall, soluble sugar, starch and NSC) content. The area-based leaf chemical components content showed significant differences between HN and LN in some occasions. The soluble sugar, NSC, hemicellulose, and lignin contents of Sab Ini under HN were higher than those under LN. The pectic substance, hemicellulose, and lignin contents of Huanghuazhan under LN were higher than those under HN. The cellulose and cell wall contents of Yongyou 12 under LN were higher than those under HN. Therefore, we conclude that nitrogen fertilization weakly influences the anatomy and chemical composition of rice leaves with a few exceptions.
