Field experiments were conducted in 2013 and 2014 to compare grain yield, yield attributes and physiological N-use efficiency between two super-hybrid rice cultivars: (1) with the potential of high harvest index and physiological N-use efficiency (Guiliangyou 2) and (2) a representative super-hybrid rice cultivar (Y-liangyou 1). No significant difference in grain yield was observed between Guiliangyou 2 and Y-liangyou 1, whereas there were obvious differences in yield attributes between the two cultivars. Compared with Y-liangyou 1, Guiliangyou...
