以中国科学院沈阳生态试验站的长期定位试验为平台,研究了不同施肥和土壤管理对潮棕壤微生物生物量碳、氮和群落结构的影响。结果表明,裸地和农田处理的微生物生物量碳、氮较低,但是农田处理下施肥增加了微生物生物量,其中NPK+M效果最明显。DGGE图谱显示,处理间细菌条带分布较相似,其中裸地的细菌多样性最高;长期施肥和土壤管理改变了土壤真菌群落结构,施肥增加了真菌多样性,且有机肥的影响大于化肥;不同处理间氨氧化细菌群落结构差异显著,NPK+M显著增加了氨氧化细菌多样性,且无机肥和有机肥对氨氧化细菌群落影响不同。施肥和土壤管理对细菌影响较小,但显著改变了真菌和氨氧化细菌的群落结构。聚类分析结果显示,土壤管理措施较施肥对细菌、真菌和氨氧化细菌群落的影响更为显著。     

Effect of long‐term mineral fertilisation on soil microbial abundance,community structure and diversity in a Typic Hapludoll under intensive farming systems

Fertiliser application can not only influence plant communities, but also the soil microbial community dynamics, and consequently soil quality. Specifically, mineral fertilisation can directly or indirectly affect soil chemical properties, microbial abundance and, the structure and diversity of soil microbial communities. We investigated the impact of six different mineral fertiliser regimes in a maize/soybean rotation system: control (CK, without fertilisation), PS (application of phosphorus plus sulphur), NS (application of nitrogen plus S), NP (application of N plus P), NPS (application of N, P plus S) and NPSm (application of N, P, S plus micronutrients). Soil samples were collected at the physiological maturity stage of maize and soybean in March of 2013 and 2014, respectively. Overall, mineral fertilisation resulted in significantly decreased soil pH and increased total organic carbon compared with the control (CK). The analysis of terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T‐RFLP) revealed that mineral fertilisers caused a shift in the composition of both bacterial and fungal communities. In 2013, the highest value of Shannon diversity of bacterial terminal restriction fragments (TRFs) was found in control soils. In 2014, NPSm treated soils showed the lowest values of diversity for both bacterial and fungal TRFs. In both crop growing seasons, the analysis of phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) detected the lowest value of total microbial biomass under CK. As PLFA analysis can be used to evaluate total microbial community, this result suggests that fertilisation increased total microbial biomass. When the bacterial and fungal abundance were examined using real time polymerase chain reaction, the results revealed that mineral fertilisation led to decreased bacterial abundance (16S rRNA), while fungal abundance (18S rRNA) was found to be increased in both crop growing seasons. Our results show that mineral fertiliser application has a significant impact on soil properties, bacterial and fungal abundance and microbial diversity. However, further studies are needed to better understand the mechanisms involved in the changes to microbial communities as a consequence of mineral fertilisation.     

Temporal Dynamics of Bacterial and Fungal Communities in a Genetically Modified (GM) Rice Ecosystem

We assessed the temporal dynamics of bacterial and fungal communities in a soil ecosystem supporting genetically modified (GM) rice (Oryza sativa L., ABC-TPSP; fusion of trehalose-6-phosphate synthase and phosphatase). Using terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis and real-time quantitative PCR, we compared bacterial and fungal communities in the soils underlying GM rice (ABC-TPSP), and its host cultivar (Nakdong) during growing seasons and non-growing seasons. Overall, the soils supporting GM and non-GM rice did not differ significantly in diversity indices, including ribotype numbers, for either bacteria or fungi. The diversity index (H) in both the bacterial and fungal communities was correlated with water content, dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and ammonium nitrogen, and the correlation was stronger in fungi than in bacteria. Multivariate analysis showed no differences in microbial community structures between the two crop genotypes, but such differences did appear in time, with significant changes observed after harvest. Gene copy number was estimated as 10⁸~10¹¹ and 10⁵~10⁷ per gram of soil for bacteria and fungi, respectively. As observed for community structure, the rice genotypes did not differ significantly in either bacterial- or fungal-specific gene copy numbers, although we observed a seasonal change in number. We summarize the results of this study as follows. (1) GM rice did not influence soil bacterial and fungal community structures as compared to non-GM rice in our system, (2) both bacterial and fungal communities changed with the growth stage of either rice genotype, (3) fungal communities were less variable than bacterial communities, and (4) although several environmental factors, including ammonium nitrogen and DOC correlated with shifts in microbial community structure, no single factor stood out.

Carbon and nitrogen limitations of soil microbial biomass in desert ecosystems

Microbial biomass nitrogen was measured in unamended (dry) and wetted soils in ten shrubland and grassland communities of the Chihuahuan desert, southern New Mexico, by the fumigation-extraction method. Microbial biomass-N in dry soils was undetectable. Average microbial biomass-N in wetted soils among all plant communities was 15.3 μg g^-1 soil. Highest values were found in the communities with the lowest topographic positions, and the minimum values were detected in the spaces between shrubs. Microbial biomass was positively and significantly correlated to soil organic carbon and extractable nitrogen (NH₄ ⁺ + NO₃ ^-). In a stepwise multiple regression, organic carbon and extractable nitrogen accounted for 40.9 and 5.6%, respectively, of the variance in microbial biomass-N among all the samples. Among communities, the soil microbial biomass was affected by the ratio of carbon to extractable nitrogen. Our results suggest a succession in the control of microbial biomass from nitrogen to carbon when the ratio of carbon to nitrogen decreases during desertification.     

Cellulose utilization in forest litter and soil: identification of bacterial and fungal decomposers

Organic matter decomposition in the globally widespread coniferous forests has an important role in the carbon cycle, and cellulose decomposition is especially important in this respect because cellulose is the most abundant polysaccharide in plant litter. Cellulose decomposition was 10 times faster in the fungi-dominated litter of Picea abies forest than in the bacteria-dominated soil. In the soil, the added (13)C-labelled cellulose was the main source of microbial respiration and was preferentially accumulated in the fungal biomass and cellulose induced fungal proliferation. In contrast, in the litter, bacterial biomass showed higher labelling after (13)C-cellulose addition and bacterial biomass increased. While 80% of the total community was represented by 104-106 bacterial and 33-59 fungal operational taxonomic units (OTUs), 80% of the cellulolytic communities of bacteria and fungi were only composed of 8-18 highly abundant OTUs. Both the total and (13)C-labelled communities differed substantially between the litter and soil. Cellulolytic bacteria in the acidic topsoil included Betaproteobacteria, Bacteroidetes and Acidobacteria, whereas these typically found in neutral soils were absent. Most fungal cellulose decomposers belonged to Ascomycota; cellulolytic Basidiomycota were mainly represented by the yeasts Trichosporon and Cryptococcus. Several bacteria and fungi demonstrated here to derive their carbon from cellulose were previously not recognized as cellulolytic.     

植茶年限对土壤微生物群落结构及多样性的影响

为探明植茶年限对土壤微生物群落结构及多样性的影响,以0、20、25、38和48年茶园土壤表层(0～20 cm)、亚表层(20～40 cm)土壤样品为研究对象,采用T-RFLP技术及qPCR方法对土壤细菌(B)、真菌(F)群落进行分析。结果表明: 植茶后土壤理化性质明显改变,随植茶年限的增加土壤有机碳、碱解氮及有效磷含量呈先升高后降低的趋势,表层土壤有机碳和全氮含量均显著高于亚表层土壤。不同植茶年限土壤细菌群落组分存在差异且多样性指数随植茶年限的增加呈下降趋势,而不同植茶年限土壤真菌群落组分差异不明显且多样性指数无显著差异。总体来看,土壤细菌群落对植茶年限的响应比真菌群落敏感。随植茶年限的增加,茶园土壤微生物群落有从F/B较低的“细菌型”向F/B较高的“真菌型”转变的趋势。     

Land use and climatic factors structure regional patterns in soil microbial communities

Aim  Although patterns are emerging for macroorganisms, we have limited understanding of the factors determining soil microbial community composition and productivity at large spatial extents. The overall objective of this study was to discern the drivers of microbial community composition at the extent of biogeographical provinces and regions. We hypothesized that factors associated with land use and climate would drive soil microbial community composition and biomass.
Location  Great Basin Province, Desert Province and California Floristic Province, California, USA.
Methods  Using phospholipid fatty acid analysis, we compared microbial communities across eight land-use types sampled throughout the State of California, USA ( n = 1117).
Results  The main factor driving composition and microbial biomass was land-use type, especially as related to water availability and disturbance. Dry soils were more enriched in Gram-negative bacteria and fungi, and wetter soils were more enriched in Gram-positive, anaerobic and sulphate-reducing bacteria. Microbial biomass was lowest in ecosystems with the wettest and driest soils. Disturbed soils had less fungal and more Gram-positive bacterial biomass than wildland soils. However, some factors known to influence microbial communities, such as soil pH and specific plant taxa, were not important here.
Main conclusions  Distinct microbial communities were associated with land-use types and disturbance at the regional extent. Overall, soil water availability was an important determinant of soil microbial community composition. However, because of the inclusion of managed and irrigated agricultural ecosystems, the effect of precipitation was not significant. Effects of environmental and management factors, such as flooding, tillage and irrigation, suggest that agricultural management can have larger effects on soil microbial communities than elevation and precipitation gradients.

Silver release from decomposed hyperaccumulating Amanita solitaria fruit-body biomass strongly affects soil microbial community

Interaction of Ag with communities of soil saprotrophic organisms was studied in two different soils using a metagenomic approach. Three levels of Ag were applied to the soil samples: 0, 0.008 and 0.505?μg Ag/g soil. Silver was applied in mineral form as well as naturally bound in dry fruit-body biomass of the Ag-hyperaccumulating ectomycorrhizal fungus Amanita solitaria. Contrasting behavior of fungi and bacteria in reaction to Ag dosages was observed. The majority of bacterial ribotypes tended to prefer the soil with low doses of Ag, the ribotypes of fungi were more abundant in untreated soils and soils treated with the highest Ag concentration. Organically bound and mineral forms of Ag did not differ substantially in their effects on microbes in samples. The results indicate that decomposing Ag-rich fungal biomass can significantly alter the soil microbiota. This can contribute to formation of spot-like non-homogeneities in soil microbial distribution.     

萘对川西亚高山森林土壤微生物量、丰度和磷脂脂肪酸的影响

萘作为土壤动物化学抑制剂已在土壤动物生态功能的研究中广泛使用,但其非目标效应使其应用仍存在很大的不确定性。为了解在亚高山森林土壤应用萘抑制土壤动物群落的非目标效应,以川西亚高山森林土壤为研究对象,采用微缩实验研究了土壤微生物生物量、丰度和磷脂脂肪酸对萘胁迫的短期响应。结果表明,萘处理和对照的土壤微生物生物量碳(MBC)、真菌丰度以及细菌、真菌、革兰氏阳性菌(G~+)和革兰氏阴性菌(G~-)PLFAs含量在整个培养期间表现为降低的变化趋势,二者的土壤微生物生物量碳和G~+PLFAs含量以培养52d最低,细菌、真菌和G~-PLFAs含量以培养的45d最低。萘处理和对照的微生物生物量氮(MBN)含量表现出先升高后降低的动态,微生物生物量碳氮比(MBC/MBN)则表现为相反趋势。对照的真菌/细菌PLFAs比值呈现先升高后降低的动态,以培养的17d最高,但萘处理的真菌/细菌PLFAs比值无明显变化规律;萘处理的G~+/G~-PLFAs比值表现为降低的变化趋势,对照的G~+/G~-PLFAs比值表现为先降低后升高的趋势。萘处理仅显著影响了G~+/G~-PLFAs比值,但萘处理和采样时间的交互作用显著影响MBC/MBN、细菌丰度、真菌/细菌丰度比以及细菌、真菌的PLFAs含量、真菌/细菌PLFAs比值、G~+/G~-PLFAs比值。萘作为土壤动物抑制剂对川西亚高山森林土壤微生物群落的非目标效应具有时间变异性。

Contrasting primary successional trajectories of fungi and bacteria in retreating glacier soils

Early community assembly of soil microbial communities is essential for pedogenesis and development of organic legacies. We examined fungal and bacterial successions along a well‐established temperate glacier forefront chronosequence representing ~70 years of deglaciation to determine community assembly. As microbial communities may be heavily structured by establishing vegetation, we included nonvegetated soils as well as soils from underneath four plant species with differing mycorrhizal ecologies (Abies lasiocarpa, ectomycorrhizal; Luetkea pectinata, arbuscular mycorrhizal; Phyllodoce empetriformis, ericoid mycorrhizal; Saxifraga ferruginea, nonmycorrhizal). Our main objectives were to contrast fungal and bacterial successional dynamics and community assembly as well as to decouple the effects of plant establishment and time since deglaciation on microbial trajectories using high‐throughput sequencing. Our data indicate that distance from glacier terminus has large effects on biomass accumulation, community membership, and distribution for both fungi and bacteria. Surprisingly, presence of plants rather than their identity was more important in structuring bacterial communities along the chronosequence and played only a very minor role in structuring the fungal communities. Further, our analyses suggest that bacterial communities may converge during assembly supporting determinism, whereas fungal communities show no such patterns. Although fungal communities provided little evidence of convergence in community structure, many taxa were nonrandomly distributed across the glacier foreland; similar taxon‐level responses were observed in bacterial communities. Overall, our data highlight differing drivers for fungal and bacterial trajectories during early primary succession in recently deglaciated soils.     

种植阔叶树种和毛竹对土壤有机碳矿化与微生物群落结构的影响

为探明种植阔叶树种和毛竹对土壤有机碳矿化与微生物群落特征的影响,本研究通过盆栽试验和室内培养法比较分析种植香樟、木荷、青冈等阔叶树种与毛竹的土壤有机碳矿化速率和累计矿化量,并结合末端限制性片段长度多态性(T-RFLP)以及荧光定量PCR技术,分析土壤细菌、真菌群落组分与数量特征。结果表明: 与种植阔叶树种的土壤相比,种植毛竹的土壤活性碳组分和碳矿化总量显著提高,且其地下生物量高于阔叶树种。种植毛竹的土壤真菌/细菌丰度比也高于种植阔叶树种的土壤,土壤细菌群落组分对树种的响应比真菌群落更加敏感。种植毛竹的土壤真菌群落多样性显著低于阔叶树种;与细菌群落相比,真菌群落多样性与pH、有机碳含量、碳矿化速率更为相关。与阔叶树种相比,种植毛竹能显著增加土壤碳矿化总量,而毛竹土壤真菌群落结构是导致碳矿化量较高的原因之一。     

The Effect of Tillage and Mesorelief on the Structure of Soil Microbial Cenoses

The investigation of soil microbial cenoses in cultivated catenas and in virgin soils at the foot of catenas showed that the structure of these microbiocenoses depends on the type of the vegetation cover, the characteristics of mesorelief, and the degree of soil tillage. The microbiocenoses were found to be dominated by the fungal mycelium. The proportion of bacteria and fungal spores was higher and the seasonal variations in the soil microbial communities were more distinct in the cultivated than in the virgin swamp and forest soils. The type of mesorelief was found to appreciably influence microbial populations in the top humus-rich horizons of the cultivated soils and not in the mineral soil horizons.     

Interactive effects of wildfire and permafrost on microbial communities and soil processes in an Alaskan black spruce forest

Boreal forests contain significant quantities of soil carbon that may be oxidized to CO₂ given future increases in climate warming and wildfire behavior. At the ecosystem scale, decomposition and heterotrophic respiration are strongly controlled by temperature and moisture, but we questioned whether changes in microbial biomass, activity, or community structure induced by fire might also affect these processes. We particularly wanted to understand whether postfire reductions in microbial biomass could affect rates of decomposition. Additionally, we compared the short‐term effects of wildfire to the long‐term effects of climate warming and permafrost decline. We compared soil microbial communities between control and recently burned soils that were located in areas with and without permafrost near Delta Junction, AK. In addition to soil physical variables, we quantified changes in microbial biomass, fungal biomass, fungal community composition, and C cycling processes (phenol oxidase enzyme activity, lignin decomposition, and microbial respiration). Five years following fire, organic surface horizons had lower microbial biomass, fungal biomass, and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations compared with control soils. Reductions in soil fungi were associated with reductions in phenol oxidase activity and lignin decomposition. Effects of wildfire on microbial biomass and activity in the mineral soil were minor. Microbial community composition was affected by wildfire, but the effect was greater in nonpermafrost soils. Although the presence of permafrost increased soil moisture contents, effects on microbial biomass and activity were limited to mineral soils that showed lower fungal biomass but higher activity compared with soils without permafrost. Fungal abundance and moisture were strong predictors of phenol oxidase enzyme activity in soil. Phenol oxidase enzyme activity, in turn, was linearly related to both ¹³C lignin decomposition and microbial respiration in incubation studies. Taken together, these results indicate that reductions in fungal biomass in postfire soils and lower soil moisture in nonpermafrost soils reduced the potential of soil heterotrophs to decompose soil carbon. Although in the field increased rates of microbial respiration can be observed in postfire soils due to warmer soil conditions, reductions in fungal biomass and activity may limit rates of decomposition.     

土地利用驱动的土壤性状变化影响微生物群落结构和功能

微生物在调节陆地生态系统地球化学循环过程中具有重要作用。土地利用方式改变显著影响土壤微生物群落结构和功能,但对土地利用驱动的土壤性状变化与微生物群落结构和功能关系的研究相对匮乏。依托长期定位监测试验（始于1984年）,通过16S rRNA基因片段和ITS高通量测序,研究了土地利用方式（裸地、农田、草地）驱动的土壤碳氮变化对微生物群落结构和功能的影响。结果表明：对于细菌群落而言,裸地中α-多样性最高、其次是草地、农田中最低,农田和草地中细菌优势菌群变形菌（Proteobacteria）和放线菌门（Actinobacteria）相对丰度较裸地低4.5%、3.9%和5.5%、3.8%;对于真菌群落而言,裸地子囊菌门（Ascomycota）相对丰度最高、农田次之、草地最低;化能异养型、好氧化能异养型细菌相对丰度裸地显著高于农田和草地（P<0.05）,而硝化型和好氧氨氧化型细菌裸地显著低于农田和草地（P<0.05）;腐生型真菌相对丰度大小排序为：裸地>农田>草地。细菌群落变化主要与土壤容重、全氮、矿质氮、C ： N比和微生物量碳有关,而真菌群落与土壤矿质氮有关。细菌和真菌功能菌群主要受土壤容重、土壤有机碳、土壤全氮、C ： N比和微生物量碳影响。因此,土壤容重、土壤全氮、土壤有机碳、C ： N比、微生物量碳、矿质氮差异可能是影响不同土地利用方式中微生物群落和功能变化的主要因素。     

Contrasting diurnal variations in soil organic carbon decomposition and root respiration due to a hysteresis effect with soil temperature in a Gossypium s. (cotton) plantation

Cool-season grasses commonly harbor fungal endophytes in their aerial tissues. However the effects of these symbionts on soil microbial communities have rarely been investigated. Our objective was to explore microbial community responses in soils conditioned by plants of the annual grass Lolium multiflorum with contrasting levels of infection with the endophyte Neotyphodium occultans. At the end of the host growing season, we estimated the functional capacity of soil microbial communities (via catabolic response profiles), the contribution of fungi and bacteria to soil activity (via selective inhibition with antibiotics), and the structure of both microbial communities by molecular analyses. Soil conditioning by highly infected plants affected soil catabolic profiles and tended to increase soil fungal activity. We detected a shift in bacterial community structure while no changes were observed for fungi. Soil responses became evident even without changes in host plant biomass or soil organic carbon or total nitrogen content, suggesting that the endophyte modified host rhizodepositions during the conditioning phase. Our results have implications for the understanding of the reciprocal interactions between above and belowground communities, suggesting that plant-soil feedbacks can be mediated by this symbiosis.
