Spatial heterogeneity of county-level grain protein content in winter wheat in the Huang-Huai-Hai region of China
2022
Timely and accurate forecasting of crop grain protein content (GPC) is helpful in planning to acquire the desired target protein levels. A geographically weighted regression (GWR) model was estimated based on meteorological factors to predict the winter wheat GPC at the county level. In the Huang-Huai-Hai region, the grain protein content of winter wheat increased by 0.29% for every 1° increase in latitude. GPC prediction with this model was more precise than that of the multiple linear regressions (MLR) model. The correlation coefficient (R) and Akaike information criterion (AIC) value ranges were 0.26 ~ 0.66 and 1573.86 ~ 1710.70 for the GWR, and 0.06 ~ 0.46 and 1670.18 ~ 1939.76 for the MLR, respectively. Except for radiation in March (RAD03), radiation in April (RAD04) and radiation in May (RAD05), the sensitivity index of other monthly weather indicators to GPC had a high correlation with latitude. With 36° north latitude (L) as the limit, the correlation between RAD03 (RL<₃₆ ° = 0.36, RL>₃₆ ° = −0.29), RAD04 (RL<₃₆ ° = 0.31, RL>₃₆ ° = −0.35) and RAD05 (RL<₃₆ ° = 0.20, RL>₃₆ ° = −0.20) with latitude all showed an opposite trend. We highlight that spatial information needs to be considered when predicting county-level winter wheat GPC.
