摘要： Simultaneously increasing yield and yield stability are of critical importance to achieving sustainable cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) production. Yield stability (invariability in time) varies with weather, site-specific soil conditions and agronomic managements, e.g., nitrogen (N) supply. However, little systematically focused on the importance of the abovementioned factors. Here, we aim to assess the relative impact of N on cotton yield stability and identify the main drivers of yield variation using a three-year field experiment that consisted of six N supply rates that ranged from 0 to 300 kg ha−1. Cotton yield variation was evaluated by temporal stability (TS) and sustainable yield index (SYI). Results showed that cotton yield and yield components both varied with N rate and year. N rates that too high or too low were not conducive to cotton yield stability. Specially, 227 kg N ha−1 produced the maximum yield while the maximum TS and SYI were recorded at 120 kg N ha−1, suggesting an obvious trade-off between cotton yield and yield stability. Soil nutrient contents varied slightly with N rates, while they generally decreased over time. Path analysis showed that weather-related factors, N supply and soil nutrients together explained most of the cotton yield variation. Additionally, among weather-related factors, temperature during the growing season was the key driver of yield variation, followed by precipitation and photosynthetically active radiation. Alkali-hydrolyzale N in the soil layer of top 0.6 m was the most important soil attribute to positively determine cotton yield, followed by Olsen phosphorus and soil organic carbon. Overall, our study provided insights into evidence-based N management strategies design under site-specific conditions to improve the sustainability of agricultural production.
