Purpose
Little information is currently available regarding the influence of different root exudate components (RECs) on the availability of persistent organic pollutants in the soil environment. In this study, we investigated the impacts of different RECs including organic acids, amino acids, and fructose on the availability of pyrene as a representative polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) in soils.Materials and methods
Citric acid, oxalic acid, malic acid, serine, alanine, and fructose were used in the experiments as representative RECs. Pyrene-spiked soils (TypicPaleudalfs) with present RECs were incubated for 30 days, and the available fraction of pyrene was determined using n-butanol extraction procedure.Results and discussion
The amount of n-butanol-extractable pyrene in soil increased with the addition of tested RECs and increased when REC concentrations are enhanced within the range of 0–21 g kg?1. The extractability of pyrene in soil with REC treatments and the enhancement ratio (r, %) of the extractable pyrene in soil by the addition of RECs after a 30-day incubation decreased in the following order: organic acids (oxalic acid ≥ citric acid > malic acid) > amino acid (alanine > serine) > fructose. This decrease was observed irrespective of soil sterilization, although the concentrations of extractable pyrene were lower in non-sterilized soils compared to sterilized soils. The concentrations of metal cations and dissolved organic matter (DOM) in solution increased when organic acids were added.Conclusions
The tested RECs at concentrations of 0–21 g kg?1 clearly enhanced the availability of pyrene in soils, and larger amounts of RECs resulted in higher pyrene availabilities in the tested soils. Microbial biodegradation diminished the amount of available pyrene irrespective of the presence of RECs. The mechanism of REC-influenced availability of pyrene in soil may be related to the metal dissolution and release of DOM from soil solids. The results of this study will be useful in assessing PAH-related risks to human health and the environment and will be instructive in food safety and remediation strategies at contaminated sites. 相似文献3.

We investigated tree species effects on the soil microbial community in the tropical montane forest on Mt. Kinabalu, in Malaysian Borneo. We investigated microbial composition (lipid profile) and soil physicochemical parameters (pH, moisture, total C, N and phenolics concentration) in top 5-cm soils underneath two conifers (Dacrycarpus imbricatus and Dacrydium gracilis) and three broad-leaves (Lithocarpus clementianus, Palaquium rioence and Tristaniopsis clementis). We found that the primary difference in microbial composition was between conifer versus broad-leaves. The abundance of specific microbial biomarker lipids correlated with soil pH, total C and N. We conclude that tree species have significant impacts on the soil microbial community through their effects on soil pH, total C and N. 相似文献

We studied the relationship between plant and soil animal communities by geostatistical analysis in a piedmont forest close to Novorossiysk (Southern Russia). Vegetation on the slope of a hill was an oak-ash-hornbeam forest, while the vegetation on the foot of the hill was a maple-ash-hornbeam forest. Two plots were studied each including both slope and foot habitats. On every plot samples collected formed a grid of 10 × 5 units with a 5 m distance between them. Soil macroinvertebrates were hand-sorted from the samples, and several soil parameters (soil, pebble, and litter mass, soil moisture) were measured.The analysis did not reveal coincidence between the boundaries of plant and soil animal communities on the bend of the hill. Soil animal communities of the plots were dominated by woodlice, diplopods, and insect larvae, reaching an abundance of 680–990 individuals m−2 throughout the plots. Number of taxonomic groups per sample and overall animal abundance in the bend were the highest in both plots, whilst these parameters on the slope were the lowest. Variograms and maps of spatial distribution indicated that the boundary between soil animal communities was situated further up on the slope than the vegetation boundary. The size of the animal community was smaller than the size of plots sampled, what probably explained the lack of coincidence between the boundaries. There was a significant correlation between distribution of litter mass and parameters of soil animal communities, which was modulated by depth of soil layer and soil moisture. Soil parameters were more important for explaining boundaries between soil animal communities than plant communities in the forest considered. 相似文献

The vertical distribution of soil macroarthropods has been poorly studied despite their importance in understanding the interrelationship between the surface litter and deeper soil layers. Analyzing macrofaunal assemblages in litter and mineral soil layers is especially relevant in soils of arid and semiarid areas, where the litter usually forms a discrete layer that remains separated from the mineral soil and supports a markedly different fauna. In order to analyze the degree of compartmentalization among litter and mineral soil communities, we studied the vertical distribution of macroinvertebrates in an arid area of Southeastern Spain. During 2 years, macroinvertebrates were sampled in the litter and mineral soil beneath shrubs, ant nest mounds and bare soil using cores to a depth of 50 cm. Results showed that macroinvertebrate richness, abundance and biomass decreased gradually with soil depth with small differences between microhabitats. Assemblage composition also varied with depth; an overall vertical stratification was observed, although effects of sampling period, especially in the winter, and microhabitats with higher litter accumulations on the similarity among assemblages were observed. Although the faunal assemblages of the litter and mineral soil habitats displayed some important differences in taxonomic and trophic composition, there were taxa inhabiting both habitats, acting as connectors between litter and the mineral soil. In addition, seasonal differences in the vertical distribution of detritivorous tenebrionid larvae indicate that this connection varies in time, emphasizing the importance of temporal variability in the connection between the surface layer and the below-ground soil. 相似文献

Does forest continuity matter in conservation? - A study of epiphytic lichens and bryophytes in beech forests of southern Sweden 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effects of forest continuity at local scale for red-listed and indicator species of epiphytic lichens and bryophytes were investigated in 150 Fagus sylvatica stands in southern Sweden. Stands having forest continuity (n = 106) had continuous forest cover more than 350 years, whereas stands lacking continuity (n = 44) had forest cover less than 160 years. Forest continuity was identified by comparing a sequence of historical maps with a modern survey of beech forests. In the field woody beech substrates were searched for the epiphytes of interest. A number of environmental and spatial variables were inventoried and compiled for each stand. In all 64 species (51 lichens, 13 bryophytes) were found in the stands having continuity, and 21 (14 lichens, 7 bryophytes) in the stands lacking continuity. Controlling for the different number of surveyed stands, stands having continuity had significantly more species of lichens, but not of bryophytes. In the stands lacking continuity we did not find lichens associated with the very late succession stage. The quantity of substrates, stand age and forest continuity were the three most important factors explaining species richness as well as composition of studied epiphytes. The effect of continuity was probably due to a combination of a higher substrate quality, mainly old beeches, and a longer time available for colonization. Also, we found strong positive correlations between number of indicator and red-listed epiphyte species. In short-term conservation old stands having continuity, containing suitable substrates and indicator species are target areas. 相似文献

The interconversion of carbonyl sulfide (COS) and carbon disulfide (CS(2)) was studied in the roots and shoots of barley and chickpeas. Ratios of conversion gases, K, 40 h after the addition of COS or CS(2) are recorded. The proportion of COS converted to each of CS(2), CO, and H(2)S and the proportion of CS(2) converted to COS were greater in roots than in shoots. More COS was converted to CS(2) than CS(2) to COS in roots and shoots of barley and chickpeas. The amount of COS converted to H(2)S and CO was 8 times the amount converted to CS(2) in barley and 3-4 times the amount in chickpeas. Carbonyl sulfide may be a precursor for CS(2) in vegetation and soil, just as the reverse is true in the atmosphere. These two different results might form a cycle of COS and CS(2). 相似文献

Wood-decaying fungi in boreal forest: are species richness and abundances influenced by small-scale spatiotemporal distribution of dead wood? 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We tested whether the spatiotemporal distribution of Norway spruce (Picea abies) logs influenced species richness and abundances of wood-decaying fungi in two 2-km2 boreal forest study sites in southeastern Norway. According to the random sample null-hypothesis equally large subsamples of logs should be equally efficient in sampling fungi from a regional species pool. Based on 0.25-ha plots at 1-ha grid resolution, we compared plots with high and low densities of ‘new logs’ (decay stages 1-5) and plots with ‘old logs’ (decay stages 5-8) present or absent. Based on visible sporocarps, 45 fungus species, including 15 redlisted, were identified among 4151 logs. When rarefying species accumulation curves to the same number of logs, we found no difference in species richness between old forest plots having high and low densities of new logs, or between plots where old logs were present or absent. Curves from young forest revealed fewer species than in old forest. Multiple regression analysis of six redlisted and six common species corroborated the rarefaction analysis in showing that the probability of occurrence was independent of the spatiotemporal distribution of logs for all but two common species. Aside from the fact that more dead wood harboured more wood-decaying fungi, we conclude that the spatiotemporal distribution of dead wood was of minor importance in determining species richness and abundances at the scales of <1 ha and <100 years. This suggests that wood-decaying fungi are not dispersal-limited at these scales, and it offers an optional element in forest management. 相似文献

The population and distribution of sclerotia of Rhizoctonia solani Kühn in two sugar beet field soils was determined at harvest by a sieving-flotation method. In rhizosphere soil (RS) and non-rhizosphere soil (NRS) from the most heavily infected roots of sugar beets, 1.43–2.5 and 0.83–1.0 sclerotia g?1 dry soil were detected, respectively. In the soil around healthy sugar beet, these values were 0.04–0.12 and 0.03–0.04 sclerotia g?1 dry soil. More sclerotia were always obtained from RS than from NRS. More than 80% of the sclerotia were in the upper 10 cm of soil and within 10 cm of diseased roots. Therefore, there is a non-uniform distribution of sclerotia of R. solani in soil.The sclerotial population in soil increased significantly with disease severity and a good correlation was obtained between the number of sclerotia and the disease severity on infected plants. Most of the sclerotia collected from the field soil ranged in size from 0.5 to 2.0 mm diameter.Viability of sclerotia increased as severity of crown rot increased and as the size of the sclerotia increased. Conversely, there was a progressive decrease in sclerotial germination with increasing depth in soil and increasing distance from the infected root. 相似文献

Purpose
Soil organic matter (SOM) plays a vital role in controlling metal bioavailability. However, the relationship between SOM and its fractions, including water-soluble substances (WSS), fulvic acid (FA), humic acid (HA), and soil microbial biomass (SMB), to metal bioavailability in plants has not been thoroughly investigated. This study examined the compositional change of SOM after tea polyphenols (TPs) were added to the soil and its correlation with Pb bioavailability.Materials and methods
Ultisol samples were collected from Fuyang, spiked with two levels (0 and 300 mg kg?1 DW) of Pb, and aged for 30 days. Four uniform seedlings were transplanted to each plastic pot, which were filled with 3 kg of air-dried soil. After successful transplantation, three levels (0, 300, and 600 mg kg?1 DW) of TPs were amended as irrigation solution for the pots. The Pb concentrations in different tissues of the tea plants were determined after 6 months. SOM, WSS, FA, HA, and SMB were extracted and quantified using a Multi N/C Total Organic Carbon Analyser.Results and discussion
Adding TPs to Pb-polluted soils alleviated Pb toxicity to microorganisms and increased SMB and the rhizosphere effect. The rhizosphere SOM was lower than bulk SOM in Pb-unspiked soils, while the opposite results were observed in Pb-spiked soils. A similar inconsistency for HA in the rhizosphere and bulk soil between Pb-unspiked and Pb-spiked soils might explain the difference in SOM. FA increased with the addition of TPs in both the rhizosphere and bulk soils, which might be the result of TP transformation. Positive correlations are present between the compositions of rhizosphere SOM and Pb in different tissues of the tea plant. SMB correlated negatively with Pb in young leaves and stems. Compared to rhizosphere soil, SOM components in bulk soil were less strongly correlated with Pb in tea plants.Conclusions
Addition of TPs to soil changes the components of SOM and Pb bioavailability. SOM and its fractions, including WSS, FA, HA, and SMB, show a close relationship to Pb in different tissues of the tea plants. 相似文献11.
The present work aims at evaluating the effect of cycloheximide at concentrations of between 0.5 and 5mgg–1 on N2O and NO3
– production in two slightly alkaline soils, sampled from deciduous woodland and arable cultivation. In the first experiment,
peptone was used as the “inducing substrate” for heterotrophic activity, and soil was incubated with cycloheximide (at different
concentrations) and/or acetylene (1mll–1) to block induced eukaryotic protein synthesis and ammonia monooxygenase activity, respectively. Peptone addition stimulated
N2O and NO3
– production significantly in woodland soil, whereas arable soil showed no significant N2O emissions and low NO3
– production. Low cycloheximide concentrations drastically reduced N2O emissions in woodland soil, suggesting a potential role of fungi in N2O emissions. However, acetylene was equally effective in blocking N2O emissions and part of NO3
– production, so that a possible role of ammonia monooxygenase in an organic-inorganic pathway of N nitrification in fungal
metabolism can be hypothesized. A second experiment was carried out on the woodland soil to check if low cycloheximide concentrations
had non-target biocidal effects on soil microorganisms. Attention was focused on the range of concentrations which had reduced
N2O emission in the woodland soil. The results suggested that at concentrations of cycloheximide between 0.5 and 2mgg–1 any biocidal effect on microbial biomass was negligible in the first 48h; therefore only selective inhibition of protein
synthesis could be expected. The whole nitrifier population seemed to be particularly sensitive to cycloheximide concentrations
higher than 2.5mgg–1.

Relationships between the spatial distributions of glomalin-related soil protein (GRSP) and soil aggregates, carbohydrates or relevant enzymes are poorly studied. We found that two categories of GRSP, the easily extractable Bradford-reactive soil protein (EE-BRSP) and total BRSP (T-BRSP), respectively ranged between 0.3–0.6 and 0.5–0.8 mg/g DW soil, and these two BRSPs decreased with the increase of soil depth (0–40 cm) in the rhizosphere of a 22-year-old Citrus unshiu orchard. Both EE-BRSP and T-BRSP were significantly positively correlated with mycorrhization, 0.25–0.50 mm soil water-stable aggregates, water-extractable or hydrolyzable carbohydrates, and β-glucosidase, but significantly negatively correlated with protease. Our results demonstrate that the spatial distribution of GRSP is significantly affected by mycorrhization, soil carbohydrate, β-glucosidase and protease. 相似文献

In a series of laboratory experiments, we presented carnivorous Macrobiotus richtersi (Tardigrada, Macrobiotidae) with nematode prey to assess their importance as predator. We investigated consumption rate for (a) different prey densities (10–400 prey individuals), (b) different prey biomasses (22–80 ng), (c) different prey species (Pelodera teres, Rhabditidae, versus Acrobeloides nanus, Cephalobidae) and (d) different environments (2-D agar surface versus 3-D sand fractions of three different textures). M. richtersi consumed up to 4.6 g nematode prey in 4 h, that is, 43% of the tardigrades body mass. Predation rate was positively correlated with prey density. The optimal prey in the present investigation was the biggest prey because it yielded the highest biomass uptake per time. In addition, the size of M. richtersi played an important role in consumption rate. Bacterivorous nematodes reacted differently to attack. Even in a water film on stiff agar where nematode agility was limited, a vigorous undulation reaction of P. teres led to a measurable reduction in consumption rate. A. nanus, in contrast, showed little response to attack. Microcosm experiments with sands of different particle size demonstrated that M. richtersi is able to chase and consume small bacterivorous nematodes in a 3-D soil matrix. However, consumption rate in sand microcosms was significantly reduced compared with pure agar. The sand matrix improved nematode agility and possibly provided small pores as refuge for the nematodes. The lowest consumption rate was observed in fine sand. Effects of predatory tardigrades on nematode numbers in the field are discussed. 相似文献

Plant roots can increase microbial activity and soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition via rhizosphere priming effects. It is virtually unknown how differences in the priming effect among plant species and soil type affect N mineralization and plant uptake. In a greenhouse experiment, we tested whether priming effects caused by Fremont cottonwood (Populus fremontii) and Ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) grown in three different soil types increased plant available N. We measured primed C as the difference in soil-derived CO2-C fluxes between planted and non-planted treatments. We calculated “excess plant available N” as the difference in plant available N (estimated from changes in soil inorganic N and plant N pools at the start and end of the experiment) between planted and non-planted treatments. Gross N mineralization at day 105 was significantly greater in the presence of plants across all treatments, while microbial N measured at the same time was not affected by plant presence. Gross N mineralization was significantly positively correlated to the rate of priming. Species effects on plant available N were not consistent among soil types. Plant available N in one soil type increased in the P. fremontii treatment but not in the P. ponderosa treatment, whereas in the other two soils, the effects of the two plant species were reversed. There was no relationship between the cumulative amount of primed C and excess plant available N during the first 107 days of the experiment when inorganic N was still abundant in all planted soils. However, during the second half of the experiment (days 108-398) when soil inorganic N in the planted treatments was depleted by plant N uptake, the cumulative amount of primed C was significantly positively correlated to excess plant available N. Primed C explained 78% of the variability in plant available N for five of the six plant-soil combinations. Excess plant available N could not be predicted from cumulative amount of primed C in one species-soil type combination. Possibly, greater microbial N immobilization due to large inputs of rhizodeposits with low N concentration may have reduced plant available N or we may have underestimated plant available N in this treatment because of N loss through root exudation and death. We conclude that soil N availability cannot be determined by soil properties alone, but that is strongly influenced by root-soil interactions. 相似文献

Greenhouse gases are known to play an important role in global warming. In this study, we determined the effects of selected soil and climate variables on nitrous oxide (N2O), methane (CH4), and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from a tropical grassland fertilized with chicken slurry, swine slurry, cattle slurry, and cattle compost. Cumulative N2O emissions did not differ between treatments and varied from 29.26 to 32.85 mg N m-2. Similarly, cumulative CH4 emissions were not significantly different among the treatments and ranged from 6.34 to 57.73 mg CH4 m-2. Slurry and compost application induced CO2 emissions that were significantly different from those in the control treatment. The CH4 conversion factors measured were 0.21%, 1.39%, 4.39%, and 5.07% for cattle compost, chicken slurry, swine slurry, and cattle slurry, respectively, differing from the recommendations of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The fraction of added N emitted as N2O was 0.39%, which was lower than the IPCC default value of 2%. Our findings suggest that N2O emissions could be mitigated by replacing synthetic fertilizer sources with either biofertilizer or compost. Our results indicate the following:N2O emission was mainly controlled by soil temperature, followed by soil moisture and then soil NH4+ content; CH4 fluxes were mainly controlled by soil moisture and chamber headspace temperature; and CO2 fluxes were mainly controlled by chamber headspace temperature and soil moisture. 相似文献

The last two decades have seen a rise of interest in the adoption and diffusion of agricultural technologies aimed at improving the sustainability of agricultural lands among smallholder farmers in developing countries. This papers set out to understand factors that influence the adoption of technologies that enhance soil carbon sequestration among smallholder farmers, using secondary data recorded in the World Overview of Conservation Approaches and Technologies (WOCAT) database from 45 to 50 smallholders’ farmers in selected places in Kenya and Ethiopia respectively. A Probit model was used to analyse whether socio-economic, institutional, off-farm income, technical know-how, farmers’ perceptions, and land use characteristics influences the adoption of technologies that enhance soil carbon sequestration. The results show that smallholder farmers that positively perceived net benefits of the soil carbon enhancing technologies were more likely to adopt such technologies that enhance soil carbon sequestration in both countries. Access to off-farm income and land ownership with title deeds were also found to be positively associated with adoption. Off-farm income positively influences adoption among farmer with a moderate income (100-500US$ per year) but not the rich (>500US$) farmers. Moderate to high level of skills and technical know-how required for implementing and maintaining a technology on the farm had a negative influence on adoption. This shows that interventions, aimed at addressing specific factors such as inadequate skills and knowledge, change in perception among farmers, and off-farm income are likely to have the greatest impact in decisions relating to the adoption of the soil carbon enhancing practices among farmers in East Africa. 相似文献

Do elevated soil concentrations of metals affect the diversity and activity of soil invertebrates in the long‐term? 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This study aimed to elucidate the response of diversity and activity of soil invertebrates to elevated soil metal concentrations that were a result of sewage sludge application. Field sampling of soil invertebrates was carried out from 2002 to 2004 at an experimental site established in 1982 to test the effects on crop production of metal contamination from sewage sludge applications with elevated concentrations of zinc (Zn), copper (Cu) and nickel (Ni) with certain treatments exceeding the current UK statutory limits for the safe use of sludge on land. At metal concentrations within the limits, none of the invertebrates sampled showed adverse effects on their abundance or overall community diversity (from Shannon–Weiner index). At concentrations above the limits, individual taxa showed sensitivity to different metals, but overall diversity was not affected. Earthworm abundance was significantly reduced at total Cu concentrations at and above 176 mg kg?1, while nematode and enchytraeid abundances were sensitive to Cu and high Zn concentrations. Correspondingly, litter decomposition was lower in Zn and Cu treatments although there was no direct relationship between decomposition and soil invertebrate abundance or diversity. Such enduring changes in both soil biodiversity and biological activity around the current UK regulatory limits warrant further investigation to determine whether they indicate detrimental damage to soil functioning over the long‐term. 相似文献

First impressions suggest that the risk of soil loss through fluvial erosion from land under cultivation is considerable in the Southern Highlands Province of Papua New Guinea. the climate is very wet all year round, The terrain precipitous, and people regularly farm on steep slopes. the Wola-speaking people, who occupy a series of valleys in the centre of the province, and who practice a semi-shifting form of cultivation, are nonetheless off-hand about soil conservation and declare that erosion is not a serious problem. This paper assesses the status of their assertions by calculating potential soil loss rates. It applies the universal soil loss equation to data on rainfall erosivity, soil erodibility, slope length and steepness, vegetation cover and conservation measures, to compute likely runoff losses. the calculations suggest that, The steep slopes cultivated and wet climate notwithstanding, The local population's assessment of the dangers of erosion is realistic and not reckless. Although rainfall is high, it is rarely of an intensity sufficient to threaten serious soil erosion losses. the physical properties of the soils, which feature volcanic ash components and high organic matter levels, are such that they are particularly resistant to erosion. the staple crop of the region, sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas), also gives particularly good ground cover and protection when established, effectively shielding the soil from erosive rainfall. 相似文献

The topsoils of two sites, comprising natural forest and 4- and 20-year-old pastures, respectively, were selected in Rondônia to evaluate the changes of soil organic matter due to pasture establishment. These changes were evaluated by measuring the proportions of the C and N associated with clay and silt fractions, and by the C decomposition (CD) rate of the whole topsoils and their size fractions. The topsoils studied had large proportions of C and N associated with fine fractions, especially with clay fractions. The CD rate of the silt fractions was higher than that of the clay fractions under the two forest topsoils and under the 20-year-old pasture. The CD rate of the silt fractions under forest vegetation at each site was significantly higher than that of the silt fractions under pasture vegetation at the same site. The CD of clay fractions followed the same trend as the silt fractions, showing an improvement in the stability of C associated with clay and silt fractions under pasture vegetation. 相似文献
