稻麦轮作体系下有机肥施用对作物产量和土壤性质影响的整合分析

为明确稻麦轮作系统有机肥施用对作物产量和土壤性质的影响,本研究搜集已公开发表的文献数据,利用meta分析法定量分析了有机肥类型(普通有机肥、生物质炭、秸秆)、施用策略(单施有机肥、有机肥配施部分化肥、有机肥配施全量化肥)、施用年限(短期、中期、长期)对稻麦产量和土壤性质的影响及其对不同土壤条件(酸性、中性、碱性)的响应。结果表明: 与单施化肥相比,有机肥施用对水稻和小麦的增产效应相近,分别为3.1%和3.0%。有机肥施用对土壤性质的提升效果更明显,显著降低了土壤容重(5.7%),显著提高了土壤有机质、全氮、全磷、碱解氮、速效磷和速效钾含量,以及微生物生物量碳、氮,增幅在11.7%～38.4%。不同类型有机肥中,生物质炭和普通有机肥对土壤性质的改良效果优于秸秆;与单施有机肥相比,有机肥配施化肥的作物增产效果更好,而土壤性质改良效果较差;随着有机肥施用年限增加,作物增产和土壤肥力提升效应逐渐增强;在酸性土壤条件下有机肥施用对作物的增产效果最显著。土壤容重与稻麦周年产量呈显著负相关,而土壤全氮、速效磷、速效钾含量和微生物生物量氮与稻麦周年产量呈显著正相关关系。     

渗滤液溶解性有机物对土壤Cd、Pb有效性的影响

在Cd、Pb污染土壤中,通过生物盆栽试验,研究了2种不同填埋年龄的垃圾渗滤液溶解性有机物(DOM)对黑麦草生长的影响及其对重金属Cd、Pb吸收的影响.鲜样、水阁样分别为填埋年龄0和12年的垃圾渗滤液.结果表明,垃圾渗滤液DOM施入土壤,残留在土壤中的DOM平均浓度为对照的1.39倍(鲜样)和1.47倍(水阁样).2种垃圾渗滤液DOM处理的土壤水溶态Cd、Pb和交换态Cd、Pb均在前期呈波动变化,到后期则上升.在Cd污染土壤中,鲜样和水阁样垃圾渗滤液DOM处理土壤水溶态Cd、交换态Cd分别高出对照37.44%、4.81%,48.97%、14.94%;在Pb污染土壤中,鲜样和水阁样垃圾渗滤液DOM处理土壤水溶态Pb、交换态Pb分别高出对照8.56%、7.22%,18.99%、11.47%.鲜样和水阁样垃圾渗滤液DOM处理黑麦草总Cd浓度分别高于对照19.59%和104.4%,总Pb浓度分别高36.03%和44.66%;但两处理的黑麦草总生物量下降14.03%～52.24%.因此,垃圾渗滤液DOM进入污染土壤后,有利于土壤重金属生物有效性的提高和植物体内重金属的累积,却抑制植物的生长, 尤以填埋年龄长的垃圾渗滤液DOM影响更大.     

Food resources of shredders and other benthic macroinvertebrates in relation to shading conditions in tropical Hong Kong streams

1. Gut content analyses (GCA) of benthic macroinvertebrates, supplemented by carbon and nitrogen stable isotope analyses (SIA), were used to determine the relative contribution of leaf litter and autochthonous food sources to consumer biomass in five shaded and five unshaded streams in tropical Hong Kong. 2. Only four obligate shredders and two facultative shredders were identified out of 58 morphospecies dissected. Non‐shredder taxa consumed little (<23% food eaten) coarse particulate organic matter (CPOM) in spite of its abundance in streams, and GCA revealed that fine particulate organic matter was the major food (25–99%) of most primary consumers. 3. Stable isotope analysis results were in general agreement with the findings of GCA, and confirmed that three of the four obligate shredders had a high dependence (55–78% of assimilated carbon) on CPOM. 4. Autochthonous energy sources were important in all streams: non‐shredding primary consumers examined, which accounted for 72% of total macroinvertebrate abundance in shaded streams, derived (on average) 61% of their biomass from autochthonous foods; the equivalent values for unshaded streams were 72% (abundance) and 71% (biomass).     

26年长期施肥对土壤微生物量碳、氮及土壤呼吸的影响

研究长期小麦连作施肥条件下土壤微生物量碳、氮,土壤呼吸的变化及其与土壤养分的相关性。以陕西长武长期定位试验为平台,应用氯仿熏蒸-K2SO4提取法、碱液吸收法和化学分析法分析了长达26a不同施肥处理农田土壤微生物量碳、微生物量氮和土壤呼吸之间的差异及其调控土壤肥力的作用。长期施肥及种植作物,均能提高土壤微生物量碳、氮含量,尤其是施用有机肥,土壤微生物量碳、氮含量高于单施无机肥的处理,土壤呼吸量也提高15.91%—75.73%,而施用无机肥对于土壤呼吸无促进作用。土壤微生物生物量碳氮、土壤呼吸与土壤有机质、全氮呈极显著相关。长期有机无机肥配施可以提高土壤微生物量碳氮、土壤呼吸,氮磷肥与厩肥配施对提高土壤肥力效果最好。微生物量碳氮及土壤呼吸可以反映土壤质量的变化,作为评价土壤肥力的生物学指标。     

Assessing nitrogen fluxes from roots to soil associated to rhizodeposition by apple (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Malus domestica</Emphasis>) trees

The mass transfer from root to soil by means of rhizodeposition has been studied in grasses and forest trees, but its role in fruit trees is still unknown. In this study, N fluxes from roots to soil were estimated by applying a ¹⁵N mass balance technique to the soil–tree system. Apple (Malus domestica) trees were pre-labelled with ¹⁵N and then grown outdoors in 40 L pots for one vegetative season in (1) a coarse-textured, low organic matter soil, (2) a coarse-textured, high organic matter soil, and (3) a fine-textured, high organic matter soil. At tree harvest the ¹⁵N abundance of the soils was higher than at transplanting, but the total amount of ¹⁵N present in the tree–soil system was similar at transplanting and tree harvest. The soils had a strong effect on N fluxes from and to the soil. In the fine-textured soil, 11% of the total plant-derived nitrogen was transferred to the soil, compared with 2–5% in the two coarse-textured soils. Rhizodeposition was higher in the fine soil (18% of the primary production) than in the coarse-textured soils, whereas higher soil organic matter depressed rhizodeposition. Nitrogen uptake was almost double in the coarse-textured, high organic matter soil versus the other soils. Our results indicate that belowground primary productivity is significantly underestimated if based on root production data only. Rhizodeposition represents a major process, whose role should not be underestimated in carbon and nitrogen cycles in orchard ecosystems.     

Long term effect of municipal waste disposal on soil properties and productivity of sites used for urban agriculture in Abakaliki,Nigeria

An assessment on the impact of long term (20 years) municipal waste disposal on soil physicochemical properties and soil productivity in municipal waste dump sites was carried out in urban Abakaliki, southeastern Nigeria. Profile pits were dug at selected points and auger and core samples were collected from different soil horizons of dump and non-dump sites using free survey technique to choose observation points. There were differences in particle size distribution between dump and non-dump sites. Similarly, soil bulk density was lower by 9-13% while total porosity and hydraulic conductivity were higher by 9-14% and 240-463%, respectively, in the dump site relative to non-dump sites. Soil organic matter, total nitrogen, cation exchange capacity (CEC) and percent base saturation increased from 701 to 743, 646 to 740, 7% to 10% and 5% to 14%, respectively, in the dump site soil relative to non-dump site soil. These results were confirmed by a high coefficient of alienation (degree of unrelatedness, square root(1 - R2)) in bulk density, 0.65; total porosity, 0.58; hydraulic conductivity, 0.87; organic matter, 0.93; total N, 0.82; pH, 0.85 and cation exchange capacity, 0.97 between dump and non-dump soils. Heavy metals (Pb, Cu, Fe and Zn) increased by between 214% and 2040% in dump site soils relative to non-dump site soil. This may lead to increased uptake of metals by some test crops although their transfer ratios differ from crop to crop. Long term dumping of municipal wastes can influence soil properties and productivity at municipal waste dump sites but still may be used for farming provided that ecotoxological risks associated with its usage are continuously assessed and controlled.     

不同培肥措施对红壤茶园土壤微生物量碳的影响

研究了经过4年不同培肥措施后红壤茶园土壤微生物量碳变化.结果表明:稻草覆盖后不同比例有机无机肥配施、间作三叶草以及全施化肥处理对土壤微生物量碳均有明显提高;全年土壤微生物量碳年变化都呈现"低-高-低-高"的趋势,且在不同时期对微生物量碳的影响不同;与对照(CK)相比,稻草覆盖 100%有机肥(T1)、稻草覆盖 75%有机肥 25%化肥(T2)、稻草覆盖 50%有机肥 50%化肥(T3)、稻草覆盖 25%有机肥 75%化肥(T4)、100%化肥(T5)和间作三叶草 不施肥(T6)土壤微生物量碳全年平均值分别高出17.05%、32.38%、32.05%、24.30%、26.23%和24.63%,且差异均达到显著水平(P＜0.05);土壤微生物量碳与活性有机质、土壤全氮、微生物量氮、微生物量磷呈显著正相关,与速效氮、土壤全磷、土壤全钾、土壤含水量之间关系不显著;与单施化肥和全量投入有机物料相比,有机物和化肥配合施用更有利于提高土壤肥力.     

A Cross-System Comparison of Bacterial and Fungal Biomass in Detritus Pools of Headwater Streams

The absolute amount of microbial biomass and relative contribution of fungi and bacteria are expected to vary among types of organic matter (OM) within a stream and will vary among streams because of differences in organic matter quality and quantity. Common types of benthic detritus [leaves, small wood, and fine benthic organic matter (FBOM)] were sampled in 9 small (1st-3rd order) streams selected to represent a range of important controlling factors such as surrounding vegetation, detritus standing stocks, and water chemistry. Direct counts of bacteria and measurements of ergosterol (a fungal sterol) were used to describe variation in bacterial and fungal biomass. There were significant differences in bacterial abundance among types of organic matter with higher densities per unit mass of organic matter on fine particles relative to either leaves or wood surfaces. In contrast, ergosterol concentrations were significantly greater on leaves and wood, confirming the predominance of fungal biomass in these larger size classes. In general, bacterial abundance per unit organic matter was less variable than fungal biomass, suggesting bacteria will be a more predictable component of stream microbial communities. For 7 of the 9 streams, the standing stock of fine benthic organic matter was large enough that habitat-weighted reach-scale bacterial biomass was equal to or greater than fungal biomass. The quantities of leaves and small wood varied among streams such that the relative contribution of reach-scale fungal biomass ranged from 10% to as much as 90% of microbial biomass. Ergosterol concentrations were positively associated with substrate C:N ratio while bacterial abundance was negatively correlated with C:N. Both these relationships are confounded by particle size, i.e., leaves and wood had higher C:N than fine benthic organic matter. There was a weak positive relationship between bacterial abundance and streamwater soluble reactive phosphorus concentration, but no apparent pattern between either bacteria or fungi and streamwater dissolved inorganic nitrogen. The variation in microbial biomass per unit organic matter and the relative abundance of different types of organic matter contributed equally to driving differences in total microbial biomass at the reach scale.

Influence of drought on algal biofilms and meiofaunal assemblages of temperate reservoirs and rivers

The role of hydrological droughts in shaping meiofauna abundance through alterations in biofilm biomass and composition was investigated. In January 2005, continental Portugal was under a moderate to severe drought resulting from a 40% to 60% decrease in rainfall during the previous 12 months relative to the long-term average (1961–1990). Reservoir capacity was reduced by 30–50% relative to average values and the width of streams was reduced by 20–80% in the Zêzere River Basin (central Portugal). Algal biomass and algal class composition of biofilms was assessed through quantification of algal pigments in three reservoir and six river locations. During drought, habitat alterations are expected to be sharp in rivers while, in the absence of water quality deterioration, the habitat characteristics of reservoirs are expected to remain fairly unaffected. Chlorophylls and carotenoid pigments were extracted from biofilm samples and analysed using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). In the winter of 2003, during the period of average rainfall, biofilm biomass did not exceed 5 μg chlorophyll a cm⁻² at any location. River biofilm biomass was roughly half of that measured in the reservoirs. In the winter of 2005 (drought), biofilm biomass increased by more than 5-fold in river locations and remained low or decreased in the reservoirs. Algal biofilms were either dominated by Bacillariophyceae or by Chlorophyceae regardless of the existence of drought. The relative contribution of Bacillariophyceae to total biofilm biomass was higher during the drought than under average hydrological conditions. The abundance of harpacticoids, cladocerans and ostracods was favoured by the drought only in the reservoirs where an increase in diatom proportion in biofilms was observed. The increase in the abundance of cyclopoid copepods, turbellarians, nematodes and chironomids in rivers during the drought could be explained by algal class composition and biomass of biofilms and environmental variables (organic matter sediment content, phosphorus availability content and sediment granulometry). The hydrological drought appears to regulate meiofauna abundance only in river locations, possibly through the promotion of the growth of biofilms and the availability of organic matter deposited in rivers during the drought.

Cellulose and lignin degradation in forest soils: Response to moisture,temperature, and acidity

The concentration of lignin in plant tissue is a major factor controlling organic matter degradation rates in forest ecosystems. Microbial biomass and lignin and cellulose decomposition were measured for six weeks in forest soil microcosms in order to determine the influence of pH, moisture, and temperature on organic matter decomposition. Microbial biomass was determined by chloroform fumigation; lignin and cellulose decomposition were measured radiometrically. The experiment was designed as a Latin square with soils of pH of 4.5, 5.5, and 6.5 adjusted to 20, 40, or 60% moisture content, and incubated at temperatures of 4, 12, or 24°C. Microbial biomass and lignin and cellulose decomposition were not significantly affected by soil acidity. Microbial biomass was greater at higher soil moisture contents. Lignin and cellulose decomposition significantly increased at higher soil temperatures and moisture contents. Soil moisture was more important in affecting microbial biomass than either soil temperature or soil pH.     

Flow of photosynthesized carbon from rice plants into the paddy soil ecosystem at different stages of rice growth

To elucidate the flow of C assimilated by rice plants into soil C, soil biomass C, and emitted CH₄ at different rice growth stages, ¹³C pulse-labeling was conducted at the maximum-tiller-number (first experiment), booting (second experiment), and milky stages (third experiment) for potted rice grown outdoors under flooded conditions. The distribution of the assimilated C into each fraction was traced during a 14-day period. The atom-¹³C% excess of shoots was the highest just after the 6 h feeding of ¹³CO₂ and decreased until days 14, 7, and 3 in the first, second, and third experiments, respectively. Translocation of the assimilated C into roots was largest in the first experiment, 13%, while that into ears was more than 50% in the third experiment. The proportion of the rice-assimilated C recovered in soil organic matter increased with time after labeling and reached 3.4%, 3.0%, and 1.7% on day 14 in the first, second, and third experiments, respectively. Incorporation of the rice-assimilated C was faster into soil microbial biomass than into gross soil organic matter or the 0.5 M K₂SO₄-extractable fraction. Although the percent of labeled soil C that is in the microbial biomass on day 0 was much larger at the maximum-tiller-number stage (42%) than at the milky stage (5%), its variation among growth stages was small on day 14 (10 to 15%). The percent of the rice-assimilated C emitted as CH₄ during the 14-day period at the maximum-tiller-number, booting, and milky stages was 0.003%, 0.26%, and 0.30%, respectively.     

Influence of Litter Diversity on Dissolved Organic Matter Release and Soil Carbon Formation in a Mixed Beech Forest

We investigated the effect of leaf litter on below ground carbon export and soil carbon formation in order to understand how litter diversity affects carbon cycling in forest ecosystems. ¹³C labeled and unlabeled leaf litter of beech (Fagus sylvatica) and ash (Fraxinus excelsior), characterized by low and high decomposability, were used in a litter exchange experiment in the Hainich National Park (Thuringia, Germany). Litter was added in pure and mixed treatments with either beech or ash labeled with ¹³C. We collected soil water in 5 cm mineral soil depth below each treatment biweekly and determined dissolved organic carbon (DOC), δ¹³C values and anion contents. In addition, we measured carbon concentrations and δ¹³C values in the organic and mineral soil (collected in 1 cm increments) up to 5 cm soil depth at the end of the experiment. Litter-derived C contributes less than 1% to dissolved organic matter (DOM) collected in 5 cm mineral soil depth. Better decomposable ash litter released significantly more (0.50±0.17%) litter carbon than beech litter (0.17±0.07%). All soil layers held in total around 30% of litter-derived carbon, indicating the large retention potential of litter-derived C in the top soil. Interestingly, in mixed (ash and beech litter) treatments we did not find a higher contribution of better decomposable ash-derived carbon in DOM, O horizon or mineral soil. This suggest that the known selective decomposition of better decomposable litter by soil fauna has no or only minor effects on the release and formation of litter-derived DOM and soil organic matter. Overall our experiment showed that 1) litter-derived carbon is of low importance for dissolved organic carbon release and 2) litter of higher decomposability is faster decomposed, but litter diversity does not influence the carbon flow.     

Long-term Effect of Municipal Solid Waste Amendment on Microbial Abundance and Humus-associated Enzyme Activities Under Semiarid Conditions

Microbial ecology is the key to understanding the function of soil biota for organic matter cycling after a single amendment of organic waste in semiarid soils. Therefore, in this paper, the long-term effect (17 years) of adding different doses of a solid municipal waste to an arid soil on humus–enzyme complexes, a very stable and long-lasting fraction of soil enzymes, as well as on microbial and plant abundance, was studied. Humic substances were extracted by 0.1 M pH 7 sodium pyrophosphate from soil samples collected in experimental plots amended with different doses of a solid municipal waste (0, 65, 130, 195, and 260 t/ha) 17 years before. The activity of different hydrolases related with the C (β-glucosidase), N (urease), and P (alkaline phosphatase) cycles and with the formation of humic substances (o-diphenol oxidase) were determined in this extract. The density and diversity of plant cover in the plots, as well as the fungal and bacterial biomass (by analyzing phopholipid fatty acids) were also determined. In general, the amended plots showed greater humic substance-related enzymatic activity than the unamended plots. This activity increased with the dose but only up to a certain level, above which it leveled off or even diminished. Plant diversity and cover density followed the same trend. Fungal and bacterial biomass also benefited in a dose-dependent manner. Different signature molecules representing gram+ and gram− bacteria, and those corresponding to monounsaturated and saturated fatty acids showed a similar behavior. The results demonstrate that organic amendment had a noticeable long-term effect on the vegetal development, humic substances-related enzyme activity and on the development of bacteria and fungi in semiarid conditions.     

Heavy metals fractionation and organic matter mineralisation in contaminated calcareous soil amended with organic materials

Degradation of organic matter (OM) from organic amendments used in the remediation of metal contaminated soils leads to changes in soil chemical properties shortly after their addition, which may affect the soil metal distribution. The effects of two differing organic amendments on OM mineralisation and fractionation of heavy metals in a contaminated soil were investigated in an incubation experiment. The treatments were: control unamended soil, soil amended with fresh cow manure, and soil amended with a compost having a high maturity degree. The soil used was characteristic of the mining area at La Unión (Murcia, Spain) with 28% CaCO(3) and sandy-loam texture (pH 7.7; 2602 mg kg(-1)Zn; 1572 mg kg(-1)Pb). Manure and compost C-mineralisation after 56 days (24% and 3.8%, respectively) were below values reported previously for uncontaminated soils. Both amendments favoured Zn and Pb fixation, particularly the manure. Mn solubility increased at the beginning of the experiment due to a pH effect, and only Cu solubility increased through organic matter chelation in both amended soils.

武夷山不同海拔森林表层土壤轻组有机质特征

土壤轻组有机质是土壤有机质的重要组分,研究轻组有机质在不同森林生态系统土壤中的变化规律对理解土壤有机质形成与转换具有重要意义。以福建省武夷山国家级自然保护区不同海拔的常绿阔叶林（海拔600 m）、针阔混交林（海拔1000 m）和针叶林（海拔1400 m）为研究对象,利用密度分组方法分离了表层（0-5 cm和5-10 cm）土壤轻组有机质,研究了不同海拔森林土壤轻组有机质特征及其影响因素。结果表明：针阔混交林表层土壤的轻组有机质含量大于针叶林和常绿阔叶林（P < 0.05）,并且轻组有机碳的含量变化亦是如此（P < 0.05）,而轻组有机氮的含量无显著差异（P > 0.05）。表层土壤对应土层的轻组C：N大于土壤C：N,针阔混交林轻组C：N和土壤C：N均大于其他林分类型。0-5 cm与5-10 cm土层针阔混交林的轻组有机碳、氮储量均大于针叶林和常绿阔叶林（P < 0.05）,并且针阔混交林的轻组有机碳、氮储量所占土壤有机碳与总氮的比重均大于其余两种林分。0-10 cm土层针叶林土壤有机碳与总氮含量与储量最高,并随海拔降低而减小,但差异不显著（P > 0.05）。相关分析结果表明,轻组有机碳、氮储量与SOC、DOC、MBC和细根生物量具有显著相关关系（P < 0.05）,而与年凋落物量无关（P > 0.05）,说明地下细根可能是土壤轻组有机质的重要来源。因此,在未来气候和植被变化共同作用下,地下细根对土壤轻组有机质的形成可能具有不可忽视的作用。     

钻井废弃物配合外源有机物质对风沙土理化性质及菠菜生长的影响

采用室内盆栽试验研究水基废弃钻井泥浆、岩屑等钻井废弃物配合腐植酸、木本泥炭等外源有机物质在风沙土中的施用效果,并分析其对菠菜生长的影响,以期为钻井废弃物资源化利用和风沙土改良提供参考。共设3组室内盆栽试验:基础组共4个处理,以风沙土为对照(CK),将风沙土与岩屑按质量比1∶1混合后分别添加0、2%、4%含量水基废弃钻井泥浆(干基);基础组处理分别添加1%腐植酸、1%腐植酸+3%木本泥炭混合物,作为腐植酸组和木本泥炭组。结果表明: 基础组中,与CK相比,施用钻井废弃物显著增加了土壤有机质含量,pH和电导率上升,2%含量水基废弃钻井泥浆显著促进菠菜生长。腐植酸和木本泥炭使土壤pH降低,有机质含量显著增加,电导率上升,腐植酸组株高、总叶面积、鲜重、干重等植物生长指标均高于基础组中对应处理,混合添加腐植酸和木本泥炭后对植物生长促进效果不显著。最佳处理为腐植酸组添加2%含量水基废弃钻井泥浆,土壤有机质含量为13.1 g·kg^-1,播种40 d后菠菜株高、总叶面积、鲜重和干重分别比CK显著增加49.7%、93.4%、83.3%、34.6%。钻井废弃物配合有机物质施用可以显著增加土壤有机质含量,促进菠菜生长,风沙土+岩屑+水基废弃钻井泥浆(2%)+腐植酸(1%)是最佳组合模式。     

Soil biochemical activity and growth response of rice Oryza sativa in flyash amended soil

Soil amended with different proportions of flyash, a solid waste generated from coal-fired thermal power plants, was evaluated as a soil conditioner and nutrient supplement during a field study on the growth of rice, Oryza sativa. Generally, pH and organic carbon (OC) content did not increase significantly (P > 0.05) in flyash amended soil, but significant increases (P < 0.05) in soil conductivity (32%), available phosphorus (48%) and organic matter (OM, 29%) were observed during harvest at the 20 t ha-1 flyash application rate. Amylase, invertase, dehydrogenase and protease activities, and CO2 evolution increased in flyash amended soil over the control. The pigment (chl-a, chl-b, and carotenoid) content in rice plants did not vary significantly (P > 0.05) between different flyash amendments. Total plants biomass and aboveground biomass increased (P < 0.05) significantly (17% and 25%, respectively) at the 20 t ha-1 flyash application. However, there was a retarded growth of underground biomass. Grain and straw yield increased by 21% and 18%, respectively, at 17.5 t ha-1 flyash amendment when compared to the control. Although, a significant increase (P < 0.05) in plant biomass and grain yield in flyash amended soil is encouraging from the point of waste disposal and management, elucidation of reasons for retarded growth in underground biomass will require additional research based on long-term studies.     

Application of different organic amendments in a gasoline contaminated soil: effect on soil microbial properties

The effects of four organic wastes, including cotton gin crushed compost (CC), poultry manure (PM), sewage sludge (SS) and organic municipal solid waste (MSW) on some biological properties of a Xerollic Calciorthid soil polluted with gasoline at two loading rates (5% and 10%) were studied in an incubation experiment. Three hundred grams of sieved soil (<2mm) were polluted with gasoline and mixed with PM at a rate of 10%, CC at a rate of 17.2%, SS at a rate of 23.1%, or MSW at a rate of 13.1%, applying to the soil the same amount of organic matter with each organic amendment. An unamended soil, non polluted (C) and polluted with gasoline at 5% (G1) and 10% (G2) rate were used as reference. Soil samples were collected after 1, 30, 60, 90, 120, 180 and 270 d of incubation and analyzed for microbial biomass carbon, respiration and dehydrogenase, urease, beta-glucosidase, phosphatase and arylsulfatase activities. At the end of the incubation period, soil biological properties were higher in organic amended soils than in C, G1 and G2 treatments. In particular, soil microbial biomass carbon and dehydrogenase, urease, beta-glucosidase, phosphatase and arylsulfatase activities increased 87.1%, 92.9%, 88.7%, 93.2%, 78.2% and 85.3%, respectively for CC-amended soils respect to G2, 85.7%, 82.3%, 87.3%, 92.2%, 76.7% and 83.6%, respectively for PM-amended soils; 82%, 90%, 84.8%, 89.9%, 74.1% and 80%, respectively for SS-amended soils; and 71.3%, 78.3% 26.2%, 38.2%, 79.7% and 88.6%, respectively for MSW-amended soils. Since the adsorption capacity of gasoline was higher in CC than the PM, SS and MSW-amended soils, it can be concluded that the addition of organic wastes with higher humic acid concentration is more beneficial for remediation of soils polluted with gasoline.
