The invention discloses a hydroponic 
system for high-
throughput maize roots. The hydroponic 
system comprises a cylindrical 
sponge, a culture plate, a culture plate round hole, a hydroponic tank, a main ventilating tube and a 
branch ventilating tube, wherein the cylindrical 
sponge is used for clamping a maize 
seedling and then plugged into the culture plate round hole in the culture plate, and the culture plate is horizontally located on the hydroponic tank filled with a 
nutrient solution; the 
branch ventilating tube comprises an L-shaped 
glass tube body, a rubber tube body and a needle head; the needle head is stuck in the main ventilating tube, one end of the main ventilating tube is connected onto an 
air compressor, the other end of the main ventilating tube is knotted to achieve a sealed effect, and the air output amount of the 
air compressor is adjusted. The hydroponic 
system solves the problems that research of soil culture or sand culture of maize roots is difficult, maize seedlings in general hydroponic systems are not firmly fixed and are prone to falling or lodging, the seedlings cultured in general hydroponic systems are few and cannot be applied to large-scale root research, the number of 
oxygen supply devices in general hydroponic systems is large, and the 
oxygen supply amount in general hydroponic systems is uneven.
