In the context of climate change, it is of great significance to explore how winter wheat responds to temperature increase in terms of main agronomic traits and dry matter distribution during its growth stage in the tablelands of Guanzhong, Shaanxi, which can provide references for assessing its sensitivity and adaptability under climate change. In this paper, Zhengmai No. 1860 was selected as the research object to analyze the influence of the warming effect simulated by Open Top Chamber (OTC) on the growth and development of winter wheat. The results show that there were significant differences in temperature inside and outside OTC during growth stage (p<0.05) of winter wheat. The average temperature in OTC was 0.8 ℃ higher than that of the outside. In OTC, all the phenological stages of winter wheat came in advance of those in the control group, with an average of 6 days earlier. The plant height inside OTC was higher than that of the outside. OTC promoted leaf area of wheat at the stage of greening and heading, while inhibited leaf area at the stage of flowering and milk ripening.The warming effect promoted root growth, increasing root length by 37.48% and surface area of fine roots by 35.28%, but inhibited root biomass, decreasing it by 7.60%. The warming effect of OTC can promote the dry matter weight of stem, leaf and ear, except the dry matter weight of leaf at milk-ripening stage. In conclusion, OTC can significantly promote the functional traits of winter wheat at the vegetative growth stage, but at the reproductive growth stage, it can not promote the functional traits and even show a certain inhibitory effect.
