Highlights: [•] We analyzed effects of environmental conditions on traits of plant-type and yield. [•] Grain yield showed a downward trend from high latitude to low latitude. [•] The traits of the plant-types differed markedly among the four regions. [•] Super hybrid rice plant-type model showed significant vigor in southern China. [•] Erect panicle plant-type was more adaptable to northern China. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
