Abstract: Two years' field experiments were carried out to determine the effects of soil fertility and sidedressed N amount on the alliviation of waterlogging effects on summer corn.Results indicated that corn seedlings grew much slowly after 5 days' flooding, but higher soil fertility and dressing of N fertilizers exerted considerable effects on the recovery of the flooded seedlings.As compared with the non-nitrogen fertilized plots, dressing with 15 and 30 kg(NH4)2SO4 per mu after flooding increased grain yield by 13.8% and 22.8% in medium-fertility plots, and by 9.3% and 11.2% in fertile plots. But there was no significant difference between the two soil fertility levels.

Key words: Corn, Waterlogging, Denitrification, Aeration of soil
