Abstract: Two winter wheat cultivars with Yumai 66 and Yumai 49, were used to study their C-N metabo-Lic characteristics and source-sink relationship during grain filling stage.Changes of photosynthetic rate, SPS ac-tivity and WSC content in flag leaf appeared to be a single-peak curve, but Yumai 66 reached the peak a little later than that of Yumai 49, and leaf metabolic activity decreased slowly during later filling stage.It showed that/Source0had strong supplying ability of assimilating matter.NR activity of flag leaf in two cultivars had the same trend, but Yumai 49 was superior to Yumai 66 during 5-20 d after anthesis, it had an opposite trend dur-ing 20-35 d after anthesis.Change of IAAO activity in kerneLcame to be a double-peak curve.Starch accumu-lating rate of Yumai 49 had a double-peak curve during the whole filling stage.But that of Yumai 66 had a sin-gle-peak curve, the peak came a little later than that of Yumai 49, but it sustained a long time.It showed that Yumai 66 maintained stronger/sink0activity during the later stage.
