【Objective】This study investigated the effects of different nitrogen types of basal fertilizer on root function, photosynthetic capacity, nitrogen metabolism enzyme activity, grain yield, and nitrogen use efficiency of ratooning rice, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for high-yield and efficient production of ratooning rice in the Jianghan Plain.【Method】A two-year field experiment (2020-2021) was conducted at the Experimental Station of Yangtze University in Jingzhou City, Hubei Province. Four basal fertilizer treatments were applied: no nitrogen application (N0), urea (CK), 50% controlled release urea + 50% urea (T1), and 50% livestock manure organic fertilizer + 50% urea (T2). The N0 treatment received no nitrogen throughout the rice growth season, while other fertilization periods maintained consistent nitrogen types and amounts across CK, T1, and T2. Root dry weight, root activity, leaf area index (LAI), and net photosynthetic rate (Pn) were measured at critical growth stages. Activities of nitrogen metabolism enzymes were determined at heading stages of both main and ratooning seasons. Yield components and nitrogen use efficiency parameters were analyzed.【Result】The T2 treatment exhibited the highest root dry weight, root activity, LAI, and Pn. Activities of nitrogen metabolism enzymes and yields for both seasons followed the order: T2 > T1 > CK > N0. Compared with N0, total rice yield increased by 75.13%, 97.37%, and 137.86% under CK, T1, and T2 treatments, respectively. Relative to CK, T1 and T2 significantly improved grains per panicle, seed-setting rate, and 1000-grain weight. Nitrogen recovery efficiency, agronomic nitrogen use efficiency, and partial factor productivity of nitrogen ranked as T2 > T1 > CK.【Conclusion】Replacing 50% conventional urea with livestock manure organic fertilizer as base fertilizer enhanced root function, photosynthetic capacity, and nitrogen metabolism enzyme activities, resulting in the highest yield and nitrogen use efficiency. This strategy represents an optimal nitrogen management approach for ratooning rice production in the Jianghan Plain.
