不同CO2浓度升高和氮肥水平对水稻叶绿素荧光特性的影响

为研究不同CO₂浓度升高和氮肥水平对水稻叶绿素荧光特性的影响,利用由开顶式气室（OTC）组成的CO₂浓度自动调控平台开展田间试验。以粳稻9108为试验材料,CO₂浓度设置CK（对照,环境大气CO₂浓度）、C₁（CO₂浓度比CK增加160 μmol/mol）和C₂（CO₂浓度比CK增加200 μmol/mol）3个水平;氮肥设置低氮（N₁：10 g/m²）、中氮（N₂：20 g/m²）和高氮（N₃：30 g/m²）3个水平。结果表明,在低氮条件下,与CK相比,C₁处理使拔节期的F_o上升4.8%（P=0.031）;C₂处理使拔节期的F_o上升6.3%（P=0.015）,F_v/F_m下降4.8%（P=0.003）,使孕穗期的F_o上升12.7%（P=0.039）,F_v/F_o下降18.2%（P=0.039）。在高氮条件下,与CK相比,C₂处理使灌浆期的F_m、F_v和F_v/F_m分别下降3.6%（P=0.039）、4.9%（P=0.013）和1.3%（P=0.039）。在中氮条件下,与CK相比,C₁和C₂处理的影响不明显。在整个生育期内,CO₂浓度升高与施氮处理交互作用对水稻叶绿素荧光特性的影响未到达显著水平。研究表明,大气CO₂浓度升高使水稻叶片光系统Ⅱ受损,抑制其电子传递能力、电子受体Q_A氧化还原情况、最大光化学效率和潜在活性,通过适量施氮可以有效地缓解其负面效应。     

川西亚高山天然次生林不同演替阶段土壤-微生物生物量及其化学计量特征

开展不同恢复演替阶段天然次生林土壤-微生物生物量及其化学计量特征关系的研究,可为有效和持续管理川西亚高山次生林提供科学依据。以川西亚高山米亚罗林区20世纪60、70、80年代3种采伐迹地经自然恢复演替形成的次生林（SF60、SF70和SF80）和岷江冷杉（Abies faxoniana）原始林（PF）为研究对象,探讨了表层（0-20 cm）土壤有机碳（C_soil）、全氮（N_soil）、全磷（P_soil）含量及微生物生物量碳（C_mic）、氮（N_mic）、磷（P_mic）含量随自然恢复演替的变化特征,分析了它们的化学计量比与微生物熵（qMB）之间的相互关系。结果表明：（1）随着恢复演替年限的增加,C_soil和N_mic含量显著降低,N_soil和P_soil及C_mic和P_mic含量呈现先升后降的显著变化趋势,且3种次生林的表层土壤碳、氮、磷及其微生物生物量的含量均低于PF。（2）次生林恢复年限对土壤微生物熵C（qMBC）和P（qMBP）没有显著影响,但对土壤微生物熵N（qMBN）存在显著影响。（3）土壤-微生物化学计量不平衡性C_imb：N_imb随自然恢复演替进程呈先降后升的显著变化趋势,C_imb：P_imb呈不显著的降低趋势,N_imb：P_imb呈现显著降低趋势。冗余分析显示,N_imb：P_imb和C_mic：N_mic是影响qMB变化的主导因子,其中N_imb：P_imb解释了qMB变化的62.6%,说明土壤氮磷及其活性组分（N_mic和P_mic）含量变化可能会影响到qMB变化。综上可知,次生林近60 年的自然恢复演替引起了土壤碳氮磷含量的显著变化;天然次生林土壤-微生物生物量碳氮磷化学计量比主要受到氮磷的协同影响,且SF60土壤质量状况较差,为此,对SF60林分可适当增加氮素供给以促进其林木生长,进而提升土壤质量。     

丛枝菌根真菌对褐土玉米氮素吸收和土壤N2O排放的影响

探究不同氮肥水平下丛枝菌根(AM)真菌对褐土玉米土壤N₂O排放和氮转化功能基因的影响,为阐明AM真菌在褐土N₂O排放中的作用和效应提供理论依据。设置氮肥用量(NⅠ:105 mg/kg;NⅡ:210 mg/kg)、AM真菌(M0:不接种AM真菌;M1:接种根内根孢囊霉(Rhizophagus intraradices);M2:接种摩西斗管囊霉(Funneliformis mosseae);M3:接种Rhizophagus intraradices + Funneliformis mosseae等比例混合)双因素盆栽试验。测定植株地上部全氮含量、土壤铵态氮、硝态氮含量和N₂O排放量,采用实时荧光定量聚合酶链式反应(PCR)法分析土壤硝化功能基因(amoA-AOA和amoA-AOB)和反硝化功能基因(nirS、nirK和nosZ)的丰度。结果表明,两种施氮水平下,接种AM真菌均可显著降低土壤N₂O排放通量和累积排放量,不同AM真菌处理下N₂O累积排放量表现为:M0>M2>M1>M3。相同AM真菌处理的土壤N₂O排放通量和累积排放量在NⅡ施氮水平高于NⅠ施氮水平;相同AM真菌处理的玉米菌根侵染率在NⅡ施氮水平低于NⅠ施氮水平。与M0相比,NⅠ条件下M1、M2和M3处理土壤铵态氮含量分别降低24.5%、20.8%和45.3%,硝态氮含量分别降低19.7%、14.9%和30.2%,植株地上部全氮含量分别增加16.3%、35.2%和59.6%;与M0相比,NⅡ条件下M1、M2和M3处理土壤铵态氮含量分别降低20.9%、24.8%和40.0%,硝态氮含量分别降低36.3%、25.6%和45.2%,植株地上部全氮含量分别增加33.2%、43.9%和95.4%。两种施氮水平下,AM真菌可显著降低土壤硝化功能基因(amoA-AOA和amoA-AOB)丰度,增加反硝化功能基因(nirS、nirK和nosZ)丰度。AM真菌与N₂O排放通量呈极显著负相关。本盆栽试验条件下,接种AM真菌均可增强两种氮肥用量玉米植株氮素吸收能力,调节硝化、反硝化相关功能基因的丰度,减少土壤N₂O气体的排放,且两种AM真菌混合处理的N₂O减排效应强于单一AM真菌接种。     

干旱对土壤剖面不同深度土壤CO2通量的影响

由于全球气候变化,预计未来我国亚热带地区干旱频率和持续时间将会增加。森林土壤CO₂的释放是陆地生态系统碳循环的重要组成部分,然而,有关不同深度土壤CO₂通量对干旱响应的理解仍相当有限。选择武夷山针叶林（Coniferous Forest,CF）和常绿阔叶林（Evergreen Broadleaved Forest,EBF）为研究对象,于2014年6月至2015年12月,采用梯度法计算10、30 cm和50 cm深度各层土壤CO₂通量,探讨模拟干旱对其影响。结果表明：CF和EBF样地土壤CO₂浓度均随土壤深度的增加而升高。CF和EBF样地对照（CK）处理10 cm深度土壤CO₂生产量分别占总CO₂生产量的53.5%和55.7%,表明土壤CO₂生产量主要来源于浅层土壤,这可能与浅层土壤有高的有机碳含量及细根生物量主要分布区有关。干旱处理使CF和EBF样地不同深度土壤CO₂通量均显著减少。在两个样地土壤CO₂通量的温度敏感性（Q₁₀）值均随着土壤深度的增加而减少。干旱处理显著减少了CF样地浅层土壤的Q₁₀值（P=0.02）,对深层土壤影响不显著（30 cm：P=0.30;50 cm：P=0.23）;而在EBF样地干旱处理显著减少了深层土壤的Q₁₀值（30 cm：P=0.02;50 cm：P=0.01）,对浅层土壤影响不显著（P=0.32）。     

生物炭对褐土旱地玉米季氮转化功能基因、丛枝菌根真菌及N2O释放的影响

以豫西旱地玉米农田为研究对象,设置不同生物炭施用量处理（T0：不施用生物炭;T1：施用生物炭20 t/hm²;T2：施用生物炭40 t/hm²）,采用密闭式静态箱法测定N₂O排放通量和荧光定量PCR法分析丛枝菌根（arbuscular mycorrhizal,AM）真菌、氨单加氧酶（amoA）、亚硝酸盐还原酶（nirS、nirK）以及氧化亚氮还原酶（nosZ）的基因丰度,同时测定土壤理化性状的变化。研究结果表明,随着生物炭施用量的增加,土壤pH和含水量呈增加趋势,土壤有机碳、全氮和铵态氮含量显著提高,土壤容重和硝态氮含量显著降低。T1和T2处理土壤有机碳含量分别较T0显著提高38.44%和71.01%;T1和T2处理土壤铵态氮含量分别较T0显著增加15.89%和30.46%;T2处理土壤全氮含量较T0处理显著提高14.87%;T1和T2处理土壤硝态氮含量分别较T0减少10.57%和21.40%。随着生物炭施用量的增加,AM真菌侵染率显著增加,T1和T2处理分别较T0处理提高71.88%和115.88%;AOA、AOB、nirK和nirS基因丰度显著降低;nosZ基因丰度增加。施加生物炭处理的N₂O排放通量和累积排放量均低于不施生物炭处理,具体表现为：T0 > T1 > T2。相关分析表明,生物炭施用量与AM真菌基因丰度呈显著正相关;与nosZ基因丰度呈正相关;与AOA、AOB、nirK、nirS基因丰度呈极显著负相关。N₂O排放通量与AOA、nirK、nirS基因丰度呈极显著正相关;与土壤含水量和土壤硝态氮含量呈显著正相关;与AM真菌、nosZ基因丰度、易提取球囊霉素含量、铵态氮含量呈极显著负相关。集成推进树（ABT）分析表明,AOA对N₂O排放的影响最大,其次是AM真菌和nirS。总之,生物炭处理改善土壤理化性质、提高土壤AM真菌侵染率、调节硝化、反硝化相关功能基因的丰度,减少N₂O气体排放,为旱地农田合理施用生物炭减少N₂O气体排放提供理论依据。     

改变凋落物输入对川西亚高山天然次生林土壤呼吸的影响

2019年5月-10月,采用LI-8100A土壤碳通量自动测量分析仪对川西米亚罗林区20世纪60年代采伐后经自然更新恢复形成的岷江冷杉（Abies faxoniana）次生针叶林（针叶林）、红桦（Betula albo-sinensis）+青榨槭（Acer davidii）+岷江冷杉次生针阔混交林（针阔混交林）和青榨槭+红桦+陕甘花楸（Sorbus koehneana Schneid）次生阔叶林（阔叶林）的土壤呼吸及土壤温湿度因子（对照、去除凋落物和加倍凋落物）进行观测。结果显示：去除和加倍凋落物对土壤温湿度的影响不显著,且3种林型之间的土壤呼吸速率差异不显著。与对照相比,去除凋落物使针叶林、针阔混交林、阔叶林的土壤呼吸速率分别降低了17.65%、21.01%和19.83%（P<0.05）;加倍凋落物则分别增加6.76%、7.28%、8.16%（P>0.05）。3种林分土壤呼吸速率均与土壤温度极显著指数相关,与土壤湿度不相关。对照Q₁₀值变幅为2.01-3.29,去除凋落物降低了3种林型的Q₁₀值;加倍凋落物分别提高了针叶林和降低了针阔混交林和阔叶林的Q₁₀值。土壤呼吸速率仅表现在天然次生林对照处理中受到土壤pH、有机质、可溶性有机氮和草本Pielou均匀度指数的显著影响。研究结果表明,天然次生阔叶林和针阔混交林凋落物对土壤呼吸的贡献及Q₁₀值高于天然次生针叶林,说明在未来CO₂浓度及温度升高背景下,地表凋落物增加并未引起天然次生林土壤呼吸速率成倍增加,更有利于该区域天然次生林尤其是针叶林的土壤碳吸存。     

大气CO2浓度升高对春玉米土壤呼吸的影响

为探讨春玉米不同生育期土壤呼吸速率对大气CO₂浓度升高的响应,以黄土高原旱作春玉米为研究对象,通过改进的开顶式气室（OTC）模拟大气CO₂浓度升高的环境,在田间条件下设置自然大气CO₂浓度（CK）、OTC对照（OTC,CO₂浓度同CK）与CO₂浓度升高（OTC+CO₂,OTC系统自动控制CO₂浓度700 μmol/mol）3种处理。研究了旱区覆膜高产栽培春玉米播前（V0）、六叶期（V6）、九叶期（V9）、吐丝期（R1）、乳熟期（R3）、蜡熟期（R5）及完熟期（R6）土壤呼吸速率对大气CO₂浓度升高的响应特征,以及大气CO₂浓度升高对土壤呼吸速率的温度与水分效应的影响。研究发现,OTC+CO₂处理土壤呼吸速率,与CK相比,在R3和R5期分别增加43%、104%（P<0.05）,与OTC相比,R3和R5期分别提升了63%、109%（P<0.05）;OTC处理与CK相比,在整个生育期对土壤呼吸影响不显著;3种处理条件下,土壤温度和水分随生育期变化趋势基本一致,土壤呼吸速率与土壤温度和水分分别呈指数相关和抛物线型相关;结果表明：大气CO₂浓度升高对土壤呼吸的影响因生育期而异,土壤温度和土壤水分是影响旱地农田土壤呼吸的重要因素,CO₂浓度升高会使土壤呼吸温度效应值（Q₁₀）降低,土壤呼吸对土壤水分响应的阈值提高。     

带状采伐后不同时期毛竹林恢复和土壤养分特征

为研究带状采伐毛竹林对竹林恢复和土壤养分的影响,以福建省建瓯市毛竹林为研究对象,设置5 m(处理1,C₁)和7 m(处理2,C₂)2种采伐宽度,以不进行采伐处理为对照(CK),研究采伐后当年新鞭生长期(I时期,2018年10月)和采伐后次年新立竹生长期(Ⅱ时期,2019年6月)新竹生长相关指标和土壤养分变化特征。结果表明：(1)C₁、C₂、CK处理的出笋数量分别为2 227、2 650和1 955株·hm^-2,且C₂与C₁、CK差异显著(P<0.05);退笋率各处理之间无显著差异(P>0.05),表现为C₁2。(2)2种采伐处理的胸径(DBH)显著低于CK,表现为CK>C₂>C₁。(3)采伐后Ⅰ时期和Ⅱ时期相比,土壤全磷(TP)和全钾(TK)含量增加,全氮(TN)和全碳(TC)含量降低;采伐后I时期的C₁、C₂处理中土壤TN、TP、TK和TC含量均大于CK,但采伐后Ⅱ时期的土壤TC含量小于CK。研究认为,带状采伐能提高出笋量和立竹数,增加土壤氮磷钾养分含量;7 m带状采伐竹林恢复状况整体上优于5 m带状采伐。     

二氧化钛纳米颗粒对沼泽土壤反硝化和N2O排放的影响

近年来,二氧化钛纳米颗粒（TiO₂NPs）环境释放量不断增加,并通过多种途径进入湿地生态系统,不可避免地影响到湿地生态系统环境和功能。然而,关于TiO₂NPs对沼泽土壤反硝化作用和氧化亚氮（N₂O）排放的影响机及制尚不明确。选择典型沼泽土壤,通过室内培养实验研究土壤理化性质、反硝化酶活性、反硝化速率（DNR）和N₂O排放对不同剂量TiO₂NPs 0 mg/kg （CK）、10 mg/kg （A10）、100 mg/kg （A100）、1000 mg/kg （A1000）输入的响应,探讨TiO₂NPs输入对沼泽土壤反硝化作用和N₂O排放影响的内在机制。结果表明：不同剂量TiO₂NPs处理显著降低了土壤pH （P<0.05）,A10处理显著降低土壤总有机碳（TOC）含量（P<0.01）,A1000处理显著降低硝态氮（NO₃^--N）和亚硝态氮（NO₂^--N）含量（P<0.05）。TiO₂NPs处理抑制硝酸盐还原酶（NAR）活性,促进一氧化氮还原酶（NOR）和氧化亚氮还原酶（NOS）活性（P<0.01）,A1000处理先促进后抑制了亚硝酸盐还原酶（NIR）活性（P<0.05）。不同剂量TiO₂NPs处理抑制了土壤DNR,促进了N₂O排放,TiO₂NPs处理通过抑制NIR活性,降低土壤DNR,同时通过促进NOR活性,提高N₂O排放。综上,TiO₂NPs输入通过影响反硝化还原酶活性改变沼泽土壤反硝化过程,导致沼泽土壤N₂O排放增加,改变湿地氮的源、汇功能,影响全球气候变化。为TiO₂NPs输入的湿地环境风险评估研究提供理论基础。     

保护性耕作对东北黑土微生物碳循环功能基因的影响

土壤微生物既参与土壤有机碳的分解也是土壤有机碳转化和固定的驱动者,是影响土壤碳循环和有机碳稳定性的关键因素。然而,保护性耕作（秸秆还田）如何通过调节土壤微生物碳循环功能基因组成来影响土壤CO₂释放的机理尚不明确。因此,依托中国科学院东北地理与农业生态研究所长春保护性耕作观测站,借助鸟枪法宏基因组测序技术,分析了玉米连作系统不同耕作方式（免耕（NT）、秋翻（MP）以及常规耕作（CT））对土壤CO₂释放速率、碳水化合物活性酶（CAZy）、碳循环功能基因（碳固定、甲烷代谢以及碳水化合物代谢）组成的影响。研究表明：基于生长季节土壤CO₂释放速率6年平均值分析发现,生长季前期免耕土壤的平均CO₂释放速率显著低于秋翻和常规耕作,分别比秋翻低28%（5月份）、11%（6月份）和23%（7月份）;比常规耕作低31%（5月份）、19%（6月份）和7%（7月份）。基于CAZy数据库注释结果,发现耕作处理显著影响一些糖苷水解酶（如GH102、GH5_38和GH13_17）、糖基转移酶（如GT39）和多糖裂解酶（如PL17和PL5_1）的基因丰度,与常规耕作相比,秸秆还田的免耕和秋翻处理的这些差异基因的相对丰度较高。基于京都基因与基因组百科全书（KEGG）数据库注释结果,发现耕作方式显著影响土壤碳循环功能基因组成（Adonis,多元方差分析,R²=0.45;P=0.006）,且免耕处理土壤的碳固定、甲烷代谢以及碳水化合物代谢功能基因组成不同于常规耕作和秋翻处理,单独聚为一类。免耕土壤上调的碳固定功能基因的相对丰度（所有上调功能基因相对丰度的平均值）分别比常规耕作和秋翻高17%和11%,而下调的2个功能基因（K01007和K00170）的丰度分别低19%（CT）、21%（MP）和14%（CT）、17%（MP）。免耕土壤上调的甲烷代谢基因相对丰度分别较常规耕作和秋翻高15%和10%;下调基因的丰度分别低13%（CT）和11%（MP）。免耕土壤上调的碳水化合物代谢功能基因丰度较常规耕作和秋翻高23%和14%;下调的基因丰度分别低25%（CT）和18%（MP）。冗余分析（db-RDA）表明土壤容重及土壤水溶性有机碳（DOC）是驱动土壤碳循环功能基因组成差异的主要因子（P<0.05）,且免耕土壤上调的碳固定功能基因（K00625、K01676、K09709、K00925和K14470等）、甲烷代谢基因（K03520、K00830、K10713、K15633和K00625等）和碳水化合物代谢功能基因（K00886、K00830、K01676、K00117和K00114等）与土壤DOC、容重或含水量呈显著正相关。此外,研究发现土壤CO₂释放速率与土壤碳循环功能基因组成显著相关（R²=0.80;P<0.01）,尤其是与一些碳水化合物代谢功能基因显著相关。这些结果说明免耕处理通过影响土壤理化性质改变土壤碳循环过程,且推断免耕秸秆还田和减少干扰的叠加效应通过调节碳循环功能基因组成来提高土壤固碳潜力。     

添加毛叶苕子对红壤旱地土壤真菌群落的影响

【目的】长期高强度的连作及大量化肥施用导致红壤旱地退化和土传植物病原菌累积。真菌是农业生态系统中与土壤健康密切相关的微生物。本文通过研究土壤真菌群落的变化,探究施用毛叶苕子对红壤旱地农业生态系统的影响。【方法】采用定量聚合酶链式反应和高通量测序技术,研究红壤旱地真菌群落对单施矿质肥(mineral nitrogen,phosphorus and potassium fertilization,NPK)与矿质肥配施毛叶苕子(mineral nitrogen,phosphorus and potassium fertilization with hairy vetch,NPKG) 2种施肥措施的响应。【结果】与对照NPK相比,NPKG显著提高土壤肥力、花生产量和土壤真菌丰度,降低土壤p H和土壤真菌多样性。不同处理显著改变土壤真菌群落组成。与对照NPK相比,NPKG处理土壤腐生营养型真菌相对丰度显著提高37.42%,花生尾孢菌(Cercospora arachidicola)和可可毛色二孢菌(Lasiodiplodia theobromae) 2种花生病原菌相对丰度分别降低89.11%和8...     

生草栽培对山核桃林地土壤养分及微生物多样性的影响

高强度经营导致山核桃林地土壤性质改变,设置了白三叶、黑麦草、油菜、紫云英、自然杂草和清耕(对照)6个处理,以3次重复,随机排列的2年田间试验,研究了不同生草栽培对山核桃林地土壤养分和微生物多样性的影响。结果表明:与清耕相比,生草栽培均能改善土壤养分状况,除全钾外,白三叶和紫云英处理较其他处理能显著提高土壤养分含量,其余几个处理间差异不明显;生草栽培显著提高了土壤微生物生物量碳(MBC)含量,白三叶、黑麦草、紫云英、油菜和自然杂草处理分别较清耕提高了169.6%、159.7%、144.1%、138.6%和58.6%,差异达显著水平(P0.05)。6种不同处理的土壤微生物活性(AWCD)、微生物Shannon指数和均匀度指数均存在明显差异。不同处理的土壤AWCD为白三叶紫云英油菜自然杂草黑麦草清耕;白三叶处理的土壤微生物Shannon指数高于其他处理;白三叶、紫云英和油菜处理的土壤微生物均匀度指数显著高于其他处理。相关性分析表明,土壤微生物活性、微生物Shannon指数和均匀度指数两两之间均达到极显著差异(P0.01),三者与土壤各养分指标之间未达显著差异,但表现为正相关关系。白三叶、紫云英和油菜对改善土壤微生物特性效果较好。     

Maize growth responses to soil microbes and soil properties after fertilization with different green manures

The use of green manures in agriculture can provide nutrients, affect soil microbial communities, and be a more sustainable management practice. The activities of soil microbes can effect crop growth, but the extent of this effect on yield remains unclear. We investigated soil bacterial communities and soil properties under four different green manure fertilization regimes (Vicia villosa, common vetch, milk vetch, and radish) and determined the effects of these regimes on maize growth. Milk vetch showed the greatest potential for improving crop productivity and increased maize yield by 31.3 %. This change might be related to changes in soil microbes and soil properties. The entire soil bacterial community and physicochemical properties differed significantly among treatments, and there were significant correlations between soil bacteria, soil properties, and maize yield. In particular, abundance of the phyla Acidobacteria and Verrucomicrobia was positively correlated with maize yield, while Proteobacteria and Chloroflexi were negatively correlated with yield. These data suggest that the variation of maize yield was related to differences in soil bacteria. The results also indicate that soil pH, alkali solution nitrogen, and available potassium were the key environmental factors shaping soil bacterial communities and determining maize yields. Both soil properties and soil microbes might be useful as indicators of soil quality and potential crop yield.

     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">Melilotus officinalis</Emphasis> (yellow sweetclover) causes large changes in community and ecosystem processes in both the presence and absence of a cover crop

Non-native species are hypothesized to decrease native species establishment and cover crops are hypothesized to decrease non-native species abundance. Although many studies have compared invaded to non-invaded habitats, relatively few studies have experimentally added non-native species to directly examine their effects. In a greenhouse mesocosm experiment, we tested the effects of non-native forbs (Melilotus officinalis, Verbascum thapsus, and Lespedeza cuneata), a proposed C₃ grass cover crop (Pascopyrum smithii), and a commonly seeded non-native C₃ grass (Bromus inermis) on the establishment of target native C₄ prairie grass species. All treatments contained the same seed density of target C₄ species and were begun on bare soil collected from the field. The legume M. officinalis strongly decreased the abundance of all other species, species diversity, and light and soil moisture levels. Surprisingly, M. officinalis took up relatively large amounts of labeled nitrogen (¹⁵N) from the soil early in its development, but M. officinalis fixed nitrogen, thus increasing nitrogen in biomass nearly fivefold by the end of the study. We found few effects of either C₃ grass species on non-native forbs or C₄ target species, but seeded P. smithii did increase species diversity. Non-native plants therefore impeded native C₄ grass establishment through long-lasting effects of target species seedbank depletion (death of most target seedlings) and altered nutrient availability. The effects of M. officinalis were not reduced by the presence of a cover crop.     

采伐剩余物管理对杉木人工林土壤nosZ型反硝化细菌群落多样性的影响

反硝化细菌是土壤氧化亚氮(N₂O)排放的关键因子。以杉木人工林为研究对象,设置4种采伐剩余物处理方式(RF:对照;RB:火烧;MT:粉碎;NR:移除),采用高通量测序技术,以nosZ为标记基因,测定了自2018年9月—2020年9月,2年期间土壤nosZ型反硝化细菌群落的组成和丰度。研究结果显示,4种采伐剩余物处理中的土壤nosZ型反硝化细菌90%以上来自变形菌门,优势菌属包括固氮螺菌属、中慢生根瘤菌属、动胶菌属、伯克霍尔德菌属、嗜酸菌属、慢生根瘤菌属、假单胞菌属、固氮弧菌属以及无色杆菌属;样本间差异物种的显著性分析表明,在处理完成半年时,火烧相较于对照于β-变形菌纲水平显著增加了nosZ基因丰度;在处理完成一年时,火烧分别于红螺菌目、红螺菌科、固氮螺菌属水平显著高于粉碎;粉碎相较于移除在处理完成一年时,于γ-变形菌纲和产碱菌科水平显著增加了nosZ基因丰度;在处理完成两年时,粉碎处理的nosZ基因丰度在变形菌门水平显著高于对照和火烧。α多样性数据显示,处理完成一年时,粉碎处理相较于对照和移除显著增加了Shannon和Simpson指数;处理完成两年时,粉碎和火烧...     

Long-term manuring and fertilization effects on soil organic carbon pools under a wheat–maize cropping system in North China Plain

The effects of organic manure and chemical fertilizer on total soil organic carbon (C _T), water-soluble organic C (C _WS), microbial biomass C (C _MB), labile C (C _L), C mineralization, C storage and sequestration, and the role of carbon management index (CMI) in soil quality evaluation were studied under a wheat–maize cropping system in a long-term experiment, which was established in 1989 in the North China Plain. The experiment included seven treatments: (1) OM: application of organic manure; (2) 1/2OMN: application of half organic manure plus chemical fertilizer NPK; (3) NPK: balanced application of chemical fertilizer NPK; (4) NP: application of chemical fertilizer NP; (5) PK: application of chemical fertilizer PK; (6) NK: application of chemical fertilizer NK; and (7) CK: unfertilized control. Application of organic manure (OM and 1/2OMN) was more effective for increasing C _T, C _WS, C _MB, C _L, C mineralization, and CMI, as compared with application of chemical fertilizer alone. For the chemical fertilizer treatments, balanced application of NPK (treatment 3) showed higher C _T, C _WS, C _MB, C _L, C mineralization, and CMI than the unbalanced use of fertilizers (treatments 4, 5, and 6). The C storage in the OM and 1/2OMN treatments were increased by 58.0% and 26.6%, respectively, over the NPK treatment, which had 5.9–25.4% more C storage than unbalanced use of fertilizers. The contents of C _WS, C _MB, and C _L in organic manure treatments (treatments 1 and 2) were increased by 139.7–260.5%, 136.7–225.7%, and 150.0–240.5%, respectively, as compared to the CK treatment. The CMI was found to be a useful index to assess the changes of soil quality induced by soil management practices due to its significant correlation with soil bulk density and C fractions. The OM and 1/2OMN treatments were not a feasible option for farmers, but a feasible option for sequestering soil carbon, especially for the OM treatment. The NPK treatment was important for increasing crop yields, organic material inputs, and soil C fractions, so it could increase the sustainability of cropping system in the North China Plain.     

Differentiation of a rapidly growing,scotochromogenic, polycyclic-aromatic-hydrocarbon-metabolizing strain of Mycobacterium sp. from other known Mycobacterium species

A rapidly-growing, acid-alcohol fast, scotochromogenic, polycyclic-aromatic-hydrocarbon-degrading Mycobacterium sp. isolate, Pyr-1, which was different from known Mycobacterium species based on biochemical tests, was further analyzed to compare its mycolic acids, cellular proteins, and nucleic acids with those of known species. Mass spectral analysis of the mycolic acids of Mycobacterium sp. Pyr-1 indicated that its mycolic acids were C₆₀H₁₂₀O₃ and C₆₂H₁₂₄O₃. The mycolic acid pattern from this bacterium was compared to those of 29 rapidly-growing, scotochromogenic species and 31 other species of Mycobacterium by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The mycolic acid pattern was unique, most closely resembling M. austroafricanum but also resembling M. parafortuitum and M. gilvum. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) of soluble cellular proteins also readily differentiated this isolate from other species. The polypeptide pattern of Mycobacterium sp. Pyr-1 most closely resembled that of M. austroafricanum. Restriction enzyme analysis and Southern blot hybridization, however, revealed differences between the chromosomal DNA of our isolate and that of M. austroafricanum. The unique biochemical characteristics, mycolic acid pattern, polypeptide fingerprints, DNA restriction digest patterns, and DNA homology indicate that this strain is different from previously known species of mycobacteria. Since this bacterium is efficient in the metabolism of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, its characteristics and relationships to other Mycobacterium species are reported here.     

Contribution of winter cover crop amendments on global warming potential in rice paddy soil during cultivation

Background and aims

Winter cover crop cultivation during the fallow season has been strongly recommended in mono-rice paddy soil to improve soil quality, but its impact in increasing the greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions during rice cultivation when applied as green manure has not been extensively studied. In order to recommend a preferable cover crop which can increase soil productivity and suppress GHG emission impact in paddy soil, the effect of winter cover crop addition on rice yield and total global warming potential (GWP) was studied during rice cultivation.

Methods

Two cover crops (Chinese milk vetch, Astragalus sinicus L., hereafter vetch, and rye, Secale cerealis) having different carbon/nitrogen (C/N) ratios were cultivated during the rice fallow season. The fresh above-ground biomasses of vetch [25 Mg fresh weight (FW) ha^?1, moisture content (MC) 86.9 %, C/N ratio 14.8] and rye (29 Mg rye FW ha^?1, MC 78.0 %, C/N ratio 64.3) were incorporated as green manure 1 week before rice transplanting (NPK + vetch, and NPK + rye). The NPK treatment was installed for comparison as the control. During the rice cultivation, methane (CH₄) and nitrous oxide (N₂O) gases were collected simultaneously once a week using the closed-chamber method, and carbon dioxide (CO₂) flux was estimated using the soil C balance analysis. Total GWP impact was calculated as CO₂ equivalents by multiplying the seasonal CH₄, CO₂, and N₂O fluxes by 25, 1, and 298, respectively.

Results

Methane mainly covered 79–81 % of the total GWP, followed by CO₂ (14–17 %), but the N₂O contribution was very small (2–5 %) regardless of the treatment. Seasonal CH₄ fluxes significantly increased to 61 and 122 % by vetch and rye additions, respectively, compared to that of the NPK treatment. Similarly, the estimated seasonal CO₂ fluxes increased at about 197 and 266 % in the vetch and rye treatments, respectively, compared with the NPK control plots. Based on these results, the total GWP increased to 163 and 221 % with vetch and rye applications, respectively, over the control treatment. Rice productivity was significantly increased with the application of green manure due to nutrient supply; however, vetch was more effective. Total GWP per grain yield was similar with the vetch (low C/N ratio) and NPK treatments, but significantly increased with the rye (high C/N ratio) application, mainly due to its higher CH₄ emission characteristic and lower rice productivity increase.

Conclusions

A low C/N ratio cover crop, such as vetch, may be a more desirable green manure to reduce total GWP per grain yield and to improve rice productivity.
