A field experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of planting densities and nitrogen application levels on the growth, biomass allocation and yields of Salvia prionitis Hance. Three planting density levels, high density (666 666 plant/ha), medium density (200 000 plant/ha), and low density (95 238 plant/ha); and three fertilization levels [no nitrogen application, low nitrogen (22.5 g/m2) and high nitrogen (45 g/m2)] were set. The results showed that both the density and nitrogen level significantly affected plant size, biomass allocation and yield of S.prionitis. However, the interaction effect only extremely significantly affected the parameters related to biomass allocation. In general, nitrogen application increased the plant height, number of flower stalks, and number of primary branches flower stalks of S.prionitis under all planting densities, and leaf length, leaf width, and plant height of the two low density treatment were greater than those of the high density treatment under all nitrogen levels. Nitrogen level did not significantly affect the root biomass ratio and root- shoot ratio of S.prionitis at medium density treatment, while the root biomass ratio and root-shoot ratio at low and high densities were significantly reduced with the increasing of nitrogen application. Under each densities, the root biomass, supporting structure biomass, total biomass, whole plant yield and root yield of S.prionitis were the greatest in the low nitrogen treatment, then followed by the high nitrogen treatment. under every nitrogen application levels, the root biomass, supporting structure biomass and total biomass of S.prionitis increased significantly with the decreasing of density, However, the whole plant yield and root yield increased significantly with the decreasing of density. In all treatments, whole plant yield and root yield of S.prionitis were the greatest at high density (666 666 plant/ha) with low nitrogen level (22.5 g/m2 pure nitrogen, urea).
