Competition for electron donors among nitrate reducers,ferric iron reducers,sulfate reducers,and methanogens in anoxic paddy soil

Slurries of anoxic paddy soil were either freshly prepared or were partially depleted in endogenous electron donors by prolonged incubation under anaerobic conditions. Endogenous NO ₃ ^– was reduced within 4 h, followed by reduction of Fe³⁺ and SO ₄ ^2– , and later by production of CH₄. Addition of NO ₃ ^– slightly inhibited the production of Fe²⁺ in the depleted but not in the fresh paddy soil. Inhibition was overcome by the addition of H₂, acetate, or a mixture of fatty acids (and other compounds), indicating that these compounds served as electron donors for the bacteria reducing NO ₃ ^– and/or ferric iron. Addition on NO ₃ ^– also inhibited the reduction of SO ₄ ^2– in the depleted paddy soil. This inhibition was only overcome by H₂, but not by acetate or a mixture of compounds, indicating that H₂ was the predominant electron donor for the bacteria involved in NO ₃ ^– and/or SO ₄ ^2– reduction. SO ₄ ^2– reduction was also inhibited by exogenous Fe³⁺, but only in the depleted paddy soil. This inhibition was overcome by either H₂, acetate, or a mixture of compounds, suggesting that they served as electron donors for reduction of Fe³⁺ and/or SO ₄ ²⁺ . CH₄ production was inhibited by NO ₃ ^– both in depleted and in fresh paddy soil. Fe³⁺ and SO ₄ ^2– also inhibited methanogenesis, but the inhibition was stronger in the depleted than in the fresh paddy soil. Inhibition of CH₄ production was paralleled by a decrease in the steady state concentration of H₂ to a level which provided a free enthalpy of less than G=–17 kJ mol^-1 CH₄ compared to more than G=–32 kJ mol^-1 CH₄ in the control. The results indicate that in the presence of exogenous fe³⁺ or SO ₄ ²⁺ , methanogenic bacteria were outcompeted for H₂ by bacteria reducing Fe³⁺ or SO ₄ ²⁺ .Deceased on 27 December 1992     

Microbial reduction mechanism of ferric iron in paddy soils (Part I)

In the previous paper¹⁾ the authors proved that the ferric iron reduction in submerged paddy soils is entirely or mostly effected by the activities of microorganisms in the soil. Prior to the study on the ferric iron reducing microorganisms isolated from the soil, the present paper reports the research for the microbial mechanism of iron reduction. working with the soil itself.     

中国湖南省主要水稻土类型的氨固定

The contents, affecting factors, seasonal changes and availability of fixed ammonium in major types ofpaddy soils derived from different parent materials in Hunan Province, China, were studied using the Silva-Bremner method by laboratory and pot experiments. Results showed that the content of fixed ammoniumin the plough horizons ranged from 88.3 mg kg-1 to 388.1 mg kg-1, with 273.2 ± 77.7 mg kg-1 on average,accounting for 11.2% of total soil N on average. Content of fixed ammonium decreased in the order of newlylacustrine clayey paddy soil ＞ alluvial sandy paddy soil ＞ purple clayey paddy soil ＞ newly alluvial sandypaddy soil ＞ yellow clayey paddy soil ＞ reddish-yellow clayey paddy soil ＞ granitic sandy paddy soil. Therewere four distribution patterns of fixed ammonium in the profiles to 1-m depth, i.e., increase with the depth,decrease with increasing depth, no distinct change with the depth, and abrupt increase or decrease in somehorizon. Percentage of fixed ammonium in total N increased with the depth in most of the soils. Fixationof NH4+ by soil was higher at 30 ℃ than at 20 ℃ and 40 ℃, and continuous submergence benefited thefixation of NH4+ in newly alluvial sandy paddy soil, purple clayey paddy soil and alluvial sandy paddy soil,while alternating wetting and drying contributed to the fixation of NH4+ in yellow clayey paddy soil mostly.Fixed ammonium content in the test paddy soils was significantly correlated with ＜ 0.01 mm clay content(P ＜ 0.05), but not with ＜ 0.001 mm clay content, total N, organic N and organic matter. Fixed ammoniumcontent varied with rice growth stages. Application of N fertilizer promoted fixation of NH4+ by soil, and Nuptake by rice plant promoted release of fixed ammonium from the soil. Recently fixed ammonium in paddysoil after N fertilizer application was nearly 100% available to rice plant, while native fixed ammonium wasonly partly available, varying with the soil type and rice type.

pH与石灰性水稻土铁氧化还原过程的关系

光照和pH是调控土壤铁氧化物厌氧生物氧化还原的关键环境因素。本文采用恒温厌氧培养试验研究了黑暗、光照条件下土壤pH的变化及pH对铁氧化还原的影响,探索了pH与Fe(II)和水溶性无机碳的关系。结果表明,光照可改变土壤厌氧培养过程中pH的变化趋势,避光培养时土壤pH呈降低趋势,光照时呈先降低后增加趋势。pH介于4~9之间均可发生铁的还原反应,pH=7时还原量最大,128.5μmol g-1,pH调至4和9均可抑制避光条件下的铁还原。光照条件下pH 6~8时可发生Fe(II)的再氧化,控制初始pH为7时可使其再氧化量增加77.13%,达49.17μmol g-1。厌氧培养过程中Fe(II)与水溶性无机碳在避光时存在显著线性正相关关系,pH与Fe(II)和水溶性无机碳之间均存在显著线性负相关关系。

不同深度土壤控水对稻田土壤微生物区系及细菌群落多样性的影响

为研究不同深度土壤控水对壤土稻田土壤水势、微生物区系和细菌群落多样性的影响,通过土培池栽试验,在水稻生育后期设置土壤深度0~5 cm（S05）、0~10 cm（S10）和0~15 cm（S15）控水处理,以保持水层为对照,分析了不同深度控水处理下5 cm、10 cm、15 cm深土壤水势与土壤微生物区系、细菌群落多样性的变化。结果表明：土壤5 cm、10 cm、15 cm深度的水势随着控水深度增加而降低,S05控水处理主要影响上层（5 cm）土壤水势,S10控水处理影响上、中层（10 cm）土壤水势,S15控水处理土壤水势随土层深度的增加而升高。花后8 d和32 d,S05控水处理上层土壤细菌数量显著高于S10、S15控水处理;花后16~24 d,S05控水处理中层、下层（15 cm）土壤细菌数量均显著高于S15控水处理;土壤水势与水稻生育后期中、下层土壤细菌数量呈极显著正相关关系。S05控水处理10 cm、15 cm土层的细菌丰富度Chao指数均显著高于S15控水处理及CK。3个控水处理中,5 cm土层细菌的多样性Shannon指数以S05控水处理最低。优势细菌菌群分析发现,优势群落主要为变形菌门、绿弯菌门、酸杆菌门、拟杆菌门,四者总相对丰度在80%以上;S15控水处理中层土壤变形菌门相对丰度低于S05和S10控水处理。3个控水处理土壤样品中优势纲（相对丰度大于2%）达15个,主要包括α-变形菌纲、β-变形菌纲、δ-变形菌纲、厌氧绳菌纲等,这4个纲的总相对丰度在47%以上,其中厌氧绳菌纲相对丰度最高;上层土壤中S05控水处理的β-变形菌纲相对丰度显著低于S10和S15控水处理。因此,不同深度土壤控水对壤土土壤水势、细菌数量存在影响,改变了细菌的多样性及丰富度,对土壤细菌优势菌种类无显著影响。     

施用液态家畜废物的水稻田土壤中硝酸盐异化还原成铵过程的研究

Most studies on dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA) in paddy soils were conducted in the laboratory and in situ studies are in need for better understanding of the DNRA process.In this study,in situ incubations of soil DNRA using 15 N tracer were carried out in paddy fields under conventional water (CW) and low water (LW) managements to explore the potential of soil DNRA after liquid cattle waste (LCW) application and to investigate the impacts of soil redox potential (Eh) and labile carbon on DNRA.DNRA rates ranged from 3.06 to 10.40 mg N kg 1 dry soil d 1,which accounted for 8.55%-12.36% and 3.88%-25.44% of consumption of added NO 3-15 N when Eh at 5 cm soil depth ranged from 230 to 414 mV and 225 to 65 mV,respectively.DNRA rates showed no significant difference in paddy soils under two water managements although soil Eh and/or dissolved organic carbon (DOC) were more favorable for DNRA in the paddy soil under CW management 1 d before,or 5 and 7 d after LCW application.Soil DNRA rates were negatively correlated with soil Eh (P < 0.05,n=5) but positively correlated with soil DOC (P < 0.05,n=5) in the paddy soil under LW management,while no significant correlations were shown in the paddy soil under CW management.The potential of DNRA measured in situ was consistent with previous laboratory studies;and the controlling factors of DNRA in paddy soils might be different under different water managements,probably due to the presence of different microfloras of DNRA.     

Phylogenetic diversity of Fe(III)-reducing microorganisms in rice paddy soil: enrichment cultures with different short-chain fatty acids as electron donors

Purpose  

Microbial ferric iron reduction is an important biogeochemical process in nonsulfidogenic anoxic environments, yet the structure of microbial communities involved is poorly understood because of the lack of a functional gene marker. Here, with ferrihydrite as the iron source, we characterized the potential Fe(III)-reducing bacteria from the paddy soil in the presence of different short-chain fatty acids, formate, acetate, propionate, pyruvate, succinate, and citrate.     

长期施肥下我国水稻土基础地力变化趋势

【目的】水田具有较好的水热稳定性,且基础地力对水稻产量的贡献大,所以水稻土基础地力高低是保证水稻高产稳产的重要指标。研究长期不同施肥下我国不同区域水稻土基础地力的变化态势及其特征不仅为水稻土的农业可持续生产提供理论依据,还为评价和建立长期合理的施肥模式提供数据支持。【方法】以不施肥处理(CK)的水稻产量表征其基础地力,以不施肥产量与常规施肥(施氮、磷、钾肥,NPK)产量的比值作为基础地力贡献率,分析了我国7个水稻连作或稻麦轮作农田生态系统下长期施肥稻田的基础地力和基础地力贡献率随时间的变化趋势和特征,比较了不同地点及不同轮作方式的差异探讨了基础地力贡献率与水稻产量及其相关指标的关系。【结果】长期不施肥水稻产量随时间的变化总体上较稳定,平均变化速率仅为-0.3 kg/(hm~2·a)。不同水稻土类型间差异大红壤水稻土基础地力易呈下降趋势而紫色水稻土较稳定。不同轮作方式上,晚稻和单季稻的不施肥产量随时间呈上升趋势,分别增加1.6和29.2 kg/(hm~2·a),而早稻不施肥产量呈逐年下降趋势,平均下降20.0kg/(hm~2·a)。同一区域的试验点,白沙(BS)和望城(WangC)不施肥的水稻产量逐年下降速率最大,下降值达47~82kg/(hm~2·a);而南昌(NC)的早晚稻、武昌(WuC)和遂宁(SN)的单季稻均呈逐年上升的趋势,上升速率达44~81 kg/(hm~2·a)。水稻多年(20年)平均基础地力贡献率较高(各地变化幅度42%~68%,平均值为59.7%)其中早稻、晚稻和单季稻分别为55.1%、67.1%和54.9%。基础地力贡献率与不施肥的产量可持续性指数(SYI)间呈显著的正相关关系(r=0.655,n=13)。7个试验点的多年施肥处理水稻平均产量为5100 kg/hm~2,显著高于不施肥产量(2911 kg/hm~2),多年施肥措施对水稻产量的贡献率为40.3%。【结论】长期不施肥晚稻和单季稻产量稳定或有上升趋势而早稻产量不稳定,部分呈显著下降趋势,其变幅大小与水稻土类型有关,其中红壤水稻土的早稻产量易呈下降趋势而紫色水稻土的最稳定;施肥条件下各试验点水稻产量随时间变化较稳定。从长期角度而言,提高南方水稻土基础地力是提升其产量可持续性的有效途径之一。     

Characteristics of ferrous iron forms in paddy soil with reference to development of the soil profile

It is considered that transformation of iron compounds owing to alternation of submergence and drainage exert a complicated influence on physico-chemical properties of paddy soils and that subsequent changes in physicochemical properties play an important role in the development of paddy soil profile, for example gley formation, occurrence of iron mottling etc. Ferrous iron in waterlogged condition, however, exists in many complex forms, and is under physico-chemical equilibrium in conjunction with the environmental soil condition. In the previous paper, the authors have suggested that ferrous iron status in submerged condition is closely related to the characteristics of genetic soil types from their experiment on fractionation of inorganic ferrous iron (8).

水稻土中铁氧化还原循环的光照水分效应

水稻土中铁的氧化还原循环与CO2和CH4排放关系密切。采用恒温厌氧培养试验分别在黑暗、光照条件下研究了不同水分状况对水稻土中铁氧化还原过程、水溶性碳含量及CO2和CH4排放的影响。结果表明,水分和光照是调控土壤铁氧化还原过程及其耦合的碳转化过程的关键环境因子。避光时增加含水量缩短铁还原最大速率出现的时间,促进CH4排放。光照条件下含水量小于50%时增加含水量可促进亚铁的再氧化,大于50%时则抑制了亚铁的再氧化。避光时增加含水量可增加体系的水溶性无机碳含量(WSIC),WSIC与CH4的排放存在显著正相关关系。光照可显著降低体系的WSIC,降低幅度随含水量的增加而增大。在含水量25%～200%范围内,光照可使CO2和CH4排放量分别降低95.80%和96.08%。     

Light inhibition of carbon mineralization associated with iron redox processes in calcareous paddy soil

Purpose

The iron redox cycle is closely tied to the fate of carbon in terrestrial ecosystems, especially paddy soils. Varies diurnally and seasonally, light—the crucial environmental factor—may be a fundamental factor elucidating temporal and spatial variabilities of carbon-containing gases emission. The role of sunlight in the iron-mediated carbon cycle, however, has not been fully elucidated. We conduct this study to test the role of light in the iron-mediated carbon cycling.

Materials and methods

In this study, we conducted anaerobic incubation experiments of a calcareous paddy soil in serum vials under alternating dark and light conditions. The dynamic evolution of the carbon and iron contents was evaluated by measuring the CO₂, CH₄, and O₂ concentrations in the headspace of the vials, as well as the water-soluble inorganic carbon, microbial biomass carbon, and HCl-extractable ferrous iron contents in soil slurries. We also analyzed the soil microbial community structure by high-throughput 16S rRNA gene sequencing.

Results and discussion

The results highlighted the positive correlation between carbon mineralization and ferric iron reduction under dark conditions. Under light conditions, however, ferrous iron was oxidized by the O₂ generated via oxygenic photosynthesis of phototrophic bacteria such as Cyanobacteria, along with a decreased production of CO₂, CH₄, and water-soluble inorganic carbon. The abundance of Cyanobacteria positively correlated to O₂ levels and MBC content significantly. Light-induced periodic variations in the redox conditions facilitated carbon fixation in microbial biomass and up to 31.79 μmol g^?1 carbon was sequestrated during 30 days light incubation.

Conclusions

These results indicate that light inhibits the emission of carbon-containing greenhouse gases associated with the iron redox cycle in calcareous paddy soil. Assimilation of inorganic carbon by phototrophs may responsible for the inhibition of carbon mineralization. Our study suggests that procedures allowing more light to reach the soil surface, for instance, reducing the planting density, may mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and promote carbon sequestration in paddy soils.

     

水稻田中铜抗性微生物的定量研究

Understanding the mechanisms of Cu pollution-induced community tolerance (PICT) in soil requires the characterization of Cu-resistant microorganisms at a community level using modern molecular tools. A primer pair (copAF2010 (5 -TGCAC CTGAC VGGSC AYAT-3 )/copAR2333 (5 -GVACT TCRCG GAACA TRCC-3 )) tentatively targeting Pseudomonas-like Cu-resistant microorganisms was designed in this study. The specification of the primers was tested through conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and the construction of a Pseudomonas-like copA gene fragment library, and then the primers were used to quantify the Cu-resistant microorganisms using quantitative PCR technique. A significant increase of Cu-resistant microorganisms targeted by the primers was observed in a paddy soil from Jiaxing, China which has been exposed to one-year Cu contamination. The results provided direct evidence for Cu PICT in the soil, and the quantification method developed in this study has the potential to be used as a molecular assay for soil Cu pollution.     

厌氧条件下水稻土中铁硫循环与光照的关系

采用恒温厌氧培养试验研究了黑暗、光照、黑暗转光照和光照转黑暗条件下水稻土中硫酸盐还原和铁的氧化还原.结果表明光照是调控土壤铁、硫生物化学转化的一个关键环境因素,光照对铁、硫还原的抑制作用体现在5d后.黑暗培养30 d土壤游离铁的70.07％可被还原;光照培养时35.60 μmol g-1Fe(Ⅲ)先被还原后被氧化,30 d后仍有32.70％的游离铁被还原,转黑暗后被氧化的铁可再次被还原.黑暗时土壤中99.50％的水溶性硫酸盐(WSS)在可5d内被还原,光照培养30 d有42.73％的WSS被还原.水溶性无机碳(WSIC)与体系中Fe(Ⅱ)和WSS之间存在显著相关关系.无光照转换时水溶性有机碳(WSOC)与Fe(Ⅱ)和WSS的转化速率存在显著正相关关系;黑暗条件下WSOC＞ 7.89 μmol g-1时,体系中Fe(Ⅲ)和WSS还原;光照条件下WSOC＞ 8.27 μmol g-1时体系中Fe(Ⅲ)还原,WSOC＞8.40μmol g-1时WSS还原.     

长期施用化肥对我国南方水田表土有机碳含量的影响

利用meta分析研究水田土地利用方式下化肥对土壤有机碳含量的影响。结果显示:长期施用化肥处理的表层水稻土土壤有机碳含量较不施肥处理显著提高1.00±0.23 g kg-1,是不施肥处理的1.06倍±1.01倍。分析认为施肥处理下,较高的根系生物量导致较高的碳输入水平,另外相对充足的养分供应提高土壤固碳效率,这是施肥处理下土壤具有较高有机碳含量的两个原因。但不同轮作制度下,化肥对有机碳含量提升作用有差异:稻-稻-旱轮作制下化肥的作用不显著,而稻-旱轮作与稻-稻轮作制度下化肥对有机碳含量的提升作用显著。方差分析发现相同施肥措施下,稻-稻-旱轮作体系下土壤有机碳含量在三种轮作制度中最高,而稻-旱轮作与稻-稻轮作没有显著差异。尽管施用化肥能增加土壤有机碳含量,但评价施用化肥对温室效应的影响还需要综合考虑化肥生产、运输与施用过程中的温室气体排放三要素。     

长期无机有机肥配施对红壤性水稻土微生物群落多样性及酶活性的影响

【目的】长期有机与无机肥配合施用是促进农田生产力和土壤有机碳固定的重要技术途径。本文以江西省红壤研究所长期不同施肥试验田的表土(0—15 cm)为对象,探讨不同施肥措施对土壤微生物群落多样性和酶活性的影响。【方法】在水稻收获后,采集表土壤样品,提取土壤总DNA。采用聚合酶链反应结合变性梯度凝胶电泳(PCR-DGGE)的方法研究土壤微生物的群落结构多样性,并结合克隆测序研究土壤微生物的群落组成;用实时荧光定量PCR(q PCR)的方法研究土壤微生物的丰度。土壤细菌定量和群落结构分析的分子标靶基因分别为16S rRNA基因V3区和V6区片段,土壤真菌定量和群落结构分析的标靶基因均为18S rRNA基因。DGGE分析采用8%的聚丙烯酰胺凝胶分离细菌和真菌,所用变性梯度分别为35%65%和20%40%。同时采用荧光微孔板检测技术测定土壤几丁质酶、α-葡萄糖苷酶、β-葡萄糖苷酶、纤维素酶、酸性磷酸单脂酶和木聚糖酶活性;用紫外分光光度计法测定土壤过氧化物酶活性。【结果】PCR-DGGE分析表明,与不施肥对照(CK)相比,有机无机肥配施(NPKM),土壤细菌的香农指数和丰富度指数显著增大,而土壤真菌的香农指数和丰富度指数在不同施肥处理间无显著差异。DGGE图谱聚类分析显示,NPKM处理的土壤细菌和真菌的群落结构显著区别于其他3个处理。后续的切胶测序得出,土壤细菌分属于Chloroflexi(绿弯菌门),Proteobacteria(变形菌门)和Firmicutes(厚壁菌门);NPKM处理下隶属于Clostridum(梭菌属)和Anaerolineaceae(厌氧绳菌科)的两类细菌显著增加。土壤真菌主要分属于Basidiomycota(担子菌门)和Ascomycota(子囊菌门),这些真菌条带在DGGE图谱上的分布不同处理间均无明显的规律性,因而不同处理间真菌的群落分布未出现较清晰的变化。q PCR的结果显示,土壤细菌和真菌拷贝数在不同处理间无显著差异。土壤酶的检测结果表明,与CK相比,单施氮肥(N)处理的土壤几丁质酶活性显著提高,常规氮磷钾处理(NPK)处理的几丁质酶和α-葡萄糖苷酶活性显著增强,NPKM处理提高了土壤几丁质酶、纤维素酶和过氧化物酶活性;酸性磷酸单酯酶和木聚糖酶活性在各处理间无显著差异。归一化酶活性值,NPKM处理显著高于CK和其他施肥处理。【结论】长期有机无机肥配施可显著提高土壤细菌多样性,并改变土壤细菌和真菌的群落结构,提高土壤酶活性,因而提高了农田生态系统的生产力并对生态系统健康有改善作用。     

Meta分析湖南省双季稻田甲烷排放影响因素

稻田是农业生产中甲烷的主要排放源。探索不同农田管理措施对甲烷排放的影响,对湖南省双季稻可持续生产意义重大。该研究利用Meta分析方法,基于该区域53篇公开发表研究文章中收集的840对数据研究发现:湖南省双季稻田中,双季稻甲烷排放占全年甲烷排放的97.9%,且晚稻甲烷排放显著大于早稻;冬闲期种植作物显著增加了双季稻田43.88%(P 0.05)的甲烷排放;免耕和复合种养(稻田养鸭、稻田养鱼等)则分别显著降低了双季稻26.84%、37.02%(P 0.05)的甲烷排放;另一方面,从单位产量甲烷排放来看,施氮肥显著降低了双季稻40.01%(P 0.05)排放量,这主要是由于水稻产量显著提高了73.87%(P0.05);施有机肥和秸秆还田显著增加稻田甲烷排放量,显著增加了68.11%、71.80%(P 0.05)的双季稻单位产量甲烷排放量。研究结果表明,在湖南双季稻生产中合理采用免耕、复合种养措施并合理化肥料投入等措施有利于平衡该区域水稻增产与甲烷减排。
