The legacy effect of biochar application on soil nitrous oxide emissions

Existing studies suggest that biochar application can reduce soil nitrous oxide (N₂O) emissions, mainly based on short-term results. However, it remains unclear what the effects (i.e., legacy effects) and underlying mechanisms are on N₂O emissions after many years of a single application of biochar. Here, we collected intact soil columns from plots without and with biochar application in a subtropical tea plantation 7 years ago for an incubation experiment. We used the N₂O isotopocule analysis combined with ammonia oxidizer-specific inhibitors and molecular biology approaches to investigate how the legacy effect of biochar affected soil N₂O emissions. Results showed that the soil in the presence of biochar had lower N₂O emissions than the control albeit statistically insignificant. The legacy effect of biochar in decreasing N₂O emissions may be attributed to the reduced effectiveness of the soil substrate, nitrification and denitrification activities, and the promotion of the further reduction of N₂O. The legacy effect of biochar reduced the relative contribution of nitrifier denitrification/bacterial denitrification, nitrification-related N₂O production, and the relative abundance of several microorganisms involved in the nitrogen cycle. Our global meta-analysis also showed that the reduction of N₂O by biochar increased with increasing application rate but diminished and possibly even reversed with increasing experimental time. In conclusion, our findings suggest that the abatement capacity of biochar on soil N₂O emissions may weaken over time after biochar application, but this remains under further investigation.     

角结膜缘上皮良、恶性病变细胞核DNA原位图像定量分析

应用真彩色医学图像分析技术,对５１例角结膜缘上皮良、恶性病变（其中上皮增生１９例,不典型增生６例,原位癌１４例,鳞状细胞癌１２例）进行了ＤＮＡ原位定量分析研究．结果显示：原位癌和鳞状细胞癌ＤＮＡ含量明显增加,多为高倍异倍体细胞,ＤＮＡ直方圆明显右移,峰值主要位于＞５Ｃ处,≥５Ｃ细胞分别占７８．８９％和７８．３１％;上度增生病变ＤＮＡ含量较低,多为低倍整倍体细胞,ＤＮＡ直方图峰值位于２Ｃ～４Ｃ处,２Ｃ～４Ｃ细胞占８８．５９％;上皮不典型增生病变ＤＮＡ含量介于良性病变和癌之间,ＤＮＡ直方图逐渐右移,２Ｃ～４Ｃ细胞占５８．６２％,≥５Ｃ细胞占４１．３８％。以上数据经统计学处理各组间有显著性差异。表明ＤＮＡ倍性程度与肿瘤的增殖程度呈正相关,高倍异倍体细胞随肿瘤恶性程度的增高而增多。作者认为ＤＮＡ原位图像定量分析可为角结膜缘上皮良、恶性病变的诊断、分级及早期发现癌变趋势提供一个可靠的参考指标。
