紫茎泽兰堆肥的质量及对土壤有机质、养分和微生物的影响

为紫茎泽兰是我国危害最严重的外来入侵植物,具有生物毒性,无害化处理与资源化利用可经济、有效地防除紫茎泽兰。试验检测了紫茎泽兰生物堆肥的质量,并将紫茎泽兰生物堆肥(M)、化肥(CF)和生物堆肥+化肥(CFM)分别施入土壤,利用培养试验比较了它们对土壤有机质、养分和微生物的影响,为客观评价紫茎泽兰生物堆肥质量、微生物毒性和肥效提供有益信息。结果表明,紫茎泽兰生物堆肥质量符合NY525-2011国家标准(水分除外),且优于自然堆肥。在120 d的培养期间,CF处理降低土壤真菌和放线菌数量,对细菌数量无显著影响;CFM和M处理可提高土壤有机质和微生物量碳、氮,增加土壤细菌、真菌和放线菌数量。在添加化肥的土壤中,培养前期的碱解氮、脲酶和蔗糖酶活性高于CK(不施肥),后期与CK无显著差异。在CFM和M处理的土壤中,碱解氮变化平缓,但持续高于CK,蔗糖酶、脲酶、酸性磷酸酶和过氧化氢酶活性显著高于CF和CK。因此,紫茎泽兰生物堆肥对土壤有机质、氮、微生物生物量及土壤酶活性的影响类似于普通有机肥。     

不同土地利用方式对土壤微生物生物量碳的影响

研究了长期定位试验不同土地利用方式下土壤微生物生物量碳的变化,结果表明:裸地处理的微生物生物量碳最低;不施肥种植作物(CK)或施肥种植作物(NPK)能显著提高土壤微生物量碳含量;NPK配合猪厩肥处理的微生物体碳含量显著高于CK和NPK处理;荒地处理由于返回的植物残体量很大,积累的有机物很多,所以其微生物量碳最大;其次为割草处理和林地处理。有机质含量高的土壤其土壤微生物量也高,土壤微生物碳的周转强度也大,周转时间短,周转速率为:荒地>割草>林地>NPK+C>NPK>CK>裸地。     

连续3年施用生物有机肥对土壤养分、微生物生物量及酶活性的影响

通过温室盆栽试验,研究了连续3年在不同土壤中施用不同量的生物有机肥的土壤养分、微生物生物量、酶活性及棉花各器官干物质量的变化。结果表明:连续3年施用生物有机肥,3种土壤的养分、酶活性、微生物量和各器官干物质量均有不同程度的提高。随着其用量的增加,土壤养分、微生物量及脲酶活性也在增加,土壤pH则相反,土壤蔗糖酶、多酚氧化酶、蛋白酶活性表现先上升后下降的趋势,且在不同土壤施用生物有机肥10~30 g/kg时基本达到最高,过氧化氢酶活性无显著变化。高、中、低有机质含量的土壤的棉花各器官干物质量分别在施用生物有机肥10~20、20~30、40 g/kg时基本达到最高。随着施肥年限的延长,3种土壤微生物生物量碳、氮均表现为先降低后升高的趋势,土壤酶活性则变化差异较大。通过在不同有机质含量土壤中施肥与不施肥比较发现,本底有机质含量越低的土壤,施肥较不施肥的土壤养分、脲酶、蔗糖酶、蛋白酶活性及微生物量增加幅度越大。

新疆艾比湖地区不同土地利用方式土壤养分、酶活性及微生物特性研究

新疆艾比湖地区在我国内陆荒漠自然生态系统中具有典型性和较高研究价值,通过对不同土地利用方式土壤进行采样和分析,系统地研究和比较了不同土地利用方式土壤酶活性及微生物特性(土壤微生物量和微生物数量)。结果表明:新疆艾比湖不同土地利用方式土壤机械组成不尽一致,黏粒含量占主导地位,粗砂粒含量相对较低,土壤总孔隙度与土壤容重变化趋势相反。不同土地利用方式对土壤养分具有较大影响,不同土地利用方式下土壤养分(有机碳、全氮、全磷)和有效养分(有效磷、有效氮、有效钾、有效锌、有效铁含量)均呈现出一致性规律,大致表现为林地草地耕地未利用地,土壤全磷在不同土地利用方式下差异均不显著(p0.05);与耕地相比,土壤微生物量碳和氮、土壤微生物数量(细菌、真菌和放线菌),土壤酶活性(土壤蔗糖酶、脱氢酶、脲酶、酸性磷酸酶活性)均有明显的增加,大致表现为:林地草地耕地未利用地;相关性分析表明,土壤微生物量碳和氮、细菌、放线菌和真菌数量、蔗糖酶、脱氢酶、脲酶和磷酸酶活性均呈显著或者极显著的负相关(p0.05,p0.01);土壤有机质和全氮与蔗糖酶、脱氢酶、磷酸酶和细菌数量呈极显著正相关(p0.01),土壤有效养分与土壤微生物量碳、细菌数量和蔗糖酶活性呈显著或极显著正相关(p0.05,p0.01),说明土壤微生物量碳仍是有效养分的主要来源,其中土壤容重对土壤微生物量、微生物数量和酶活性贡献为负,土壤养分对土壤微生物量、微生物数量和酶活性贡献为正,这是造成不同土地利用方式土壤微生物量、微生物数量和酶活性差异的重要原因,其中有机质和全氮是土壤微生物量、微生物数量和酶活性的主要养分来源。     

Influence of inorganic fertilizers and organic amendments on soil organic matter and soil microbial properties under tropical conditions

 Soil organic matter level, mineralizable C and N, microbial biomass C and dehydrogenase, urease and alkaline phosphatase activities were studied in soils from a field experiment under a pearl millet-wheat cropping sequence receiving inorganic fertilizers and a combination of inorganic fertilizers and organic amendments for the last 11 years. The amounts of soil organic matter and mineralizable C and N increased with the application of inorganic fertilizers. However, there were greater increases of these parameters when farmyard manure, wheat straw or Sesbania bispinosa green manure was applied along with inorganic fertilizers. Microbial biomass C increased from 147 mg kg^–1 soil in unfertilized soil to 423 mg kg^–1 soil in soil amended with wheat straw and inorganic fertilizers. The urease and alkaline phosphatase activities of soils increased significantly with a combination of inorganic fertilizers and organic amendments. The results indicate that soil organic matter level and soil microbial activities, vital for the nutrient turnover and long-term productivity of the soil, are enhanced by use of organic amendments along with inorganic fertilizers.

Ability of different plant species to promote microbiological processes in semiarid soil

In semiarid climate soils, the establishment of a plant cover is fundamental to avoid degradation and desertification processes. A better understanding of the ability of plants to promote soil microbial processes in these conditions is necessary for successful soil reclamation. Six different plant species were planted in a semiarid soil, in order to know which species are the most effective for the reclamation of semiarid areas. Six years after planting, the rhizosphere soils were studied by measuring chemical (pH, electrical conductivity, total organic carbon and other carbon fractions), physical (% of saggregates), microbiological (microbial biomass carbon and soil respiration), and biochemical (dehydrogenase, phosphatase, β-glucosidase and urease activities) parameters. In general, in all the soil–plant systems plant nutrients, organic matter and microbial activity increased compared to the control soil. For some species, such as Rhamnus lycioides, the increase in the total organic carbon content (TOC) in the rhizosphere zone was almost 200%. A positive correlation was found between TOC and water-soluble carbon (p<0.001); both parameters were negatively correlated with electrical conductivity. Microbial biomass carbon and soil respiration were highest in the rhizosphere of Stipa tenacissima (98% and 60%, respectively, of increase on soil control values) and Rosmarinus officinalis (94% and 51%, respectively, of increase on soil control values). These microbiological parameters were correlated with the percentage of stable aggregates (p<0.01). Enzyme activities were affected by the rhizosphere, their values depending on the shrub species.     

Short-term effects of organic municipal wastes on wheat yield,microbial biomass,microbial activity,and chemical properties of soil

The objectives of this work were to (a) investigate the short-term effects of applications of mineral fertilizer, municipal solid waste (MSW) compost, and two sewage sludges (SSs) subjected to different treatments (composting and thermal drying) on microbial biomass and activity of soil by measuring microbial biomass C, adenosine 5′-triphosphate content, basal respiration, and dehydrogenase, catalase, urease, phosphatase, β-glucosidase, and N-α-benzoyl-l-argininamide-hydrolyzing activities and (b) explore the relationships between soil microbiological, biochemical, and chemical properties and wheat yields under semiarid field conditions by principal component analysis. The additions of MSW compost, SS compost, and thermally dried SS did not affect significantly soil microbial biomass, as compared to mineral fertilization and no amendment. However, microbial activity increased in organically amended soils, probably due to the stimulating effect of the added decomposing organic matter. Changes in soil microbiological and biochemical properties showed no significant relationships with wheat yields, probably because plant growth was primarily water-limited, as typically occurs in semiarid regions.     

Microbiological Properties in Earthworm Cast and Surrounding Soil Amended with Various Organic Wastes

Abstract

Changes produced in the microbiological properties of earthworm Lumbricus terrestris casts and surrounding soil by the addition of various organic wastes such as wheat straw (WS), tea production waste (TEW), tobacco production waste (TOW), cow manure (CM), and hazelnut husk (HH) were evaluated in an incubation experiment. Twenty‐one days after organic waste treatment, analyses of microbial biomass (Cmic), basal soil respiration (BSR), metabolic quotient (qCO₂), and enzyme activities (dehydrogenase, catalase, β‐glucosidase, urease, alkaline phosphatase, and arylsulphatase) were carried out on collected cast and soil samples. Addition of organic wastes to the soil increased values of Cmic, BSR, and enzyme activities in soil and earthworm casts, indicating activation by microorganisms. Except for catalase activity, these values of microbiological parameters in casts were higher than in surrounding soil at all waste treatments and control. The addition of organic wastes caused a rapid and significant increase in organic carbon, total nitrogen, and microbiological properties in both soils; this increase was especially noticeable in soils treated with TEW.     

Enzymatic activities and microbial biomass in soil as influenced by metalaxyl residues

A laboratory experiment was conducted to study the impact of metalaxyl application at different concentration levels on microbial biomass and the biochemical activities in soil. A dissipation study of metalaxyl highlighted 52.5-56.8% loss of metalaxyl due to the presence of microbial activity. However, a small but significant decline in microbial biomass was observed on 60 d of incubation period. Metalaxyl showed a highly significant effect in decreasing total N and organic C content in soil from 0 to 30 d of incubation. Dehydrogenase, phosphatase, urease, arylsulphatase and β-glucosidase activities were monitored in metalaxyl treated soils. Except urease, all the enzymatic activities initially increased and then decreased. Urease activity showed a continuous gradual decrease throughout the experimental period. Thus, metalaxyl might influence the growth and development of crop-plants, since it has direct impact on nutrient recycling and energy flow in soil.     

Changes in nutrient content,enzymatic activities and microbial properties of lateritic soil due to application of different vermicomposts: a comparative study of ergosterol and chitin to determine fungal biomass in soil

In this experiment, vermicomposts, prepared from five different waste materials, were applied to acid lateritic soil under field conditions and soil samples were collected after 90 days to study the effect of vermicomposts on different chemical and biochemical. Results suggest that vermicompost prepared from paddy straw is most effective to improve nutrient content, enzymatic activities and microbial properties of lateritic soil. Vermicompost application significantly (P ≤ 0.05) increased the concentration of organic C, mineralizable N, available P and exchangeable K in soil. Amylase, protease, urease and acid phosphatase activities were also significantly (P ≤ 0.05) higher in vermicompost treated soils compared with the control. Both basal and substrate‐induced microbial respiration, microbial biomass C and N and fungal population in lateritic soil were increased due to vermicompost application. Ergosterol and chitin content were significantly (P ≤ 0.05) higher in vermicompost treated soils over the control. Application of vermicompost increased the proportion of fungal biomass in total soil microorganisms.     

Microbial biomass activities in urban soils in two consecutive years

Ecological soil functions are protected in Germany. Thus, for the sustainable use of urban soil resources data on the function of soils to serve as a habitat are required. Soil microbial biomass and activities were studied in two surface horizons in two consecutive years at nine sites in Stuttgart, Germany, differing in land use. Microbial biomass (chloroform‐fumigation extraction, substrate‐induced respiration) and microbial activities (potential N mineralization, potential ammonium oxidation, and enzyme activities of dehydrogenase, urease, arylsulfatase, and phosphatase) were determined in 2001 and 2002. DIN/ISO standard methods were applied as far as they were available. Furthermore, soil chemical properties were determined in the 2001‐samples. Large differences in chemical and microbiological properties among surface horizons were found. Concentrations of microbial biomass and microbial activities were, however, often comparable to agricultural or forest surface soils. The lowest microbial biomass and activities were observed at a highly disturbed railway area where vegetation was missing and total organic C (TOC) had been altered by anthropogenic organic particles. In contrast, microorganisms were promoted at vegetated sites and where organic impurities were negligible. As TOC was altered by obscure organic matter, total N (TN) and not TOC closely correlated with soil microbiological properties. Biomass and activity generally decreased with depth, but mixing of organic matter resulted in more uniform depth distribution of microbial properties in one garden soil. In 2002, microbial biomass and activity were often lower compared to 2001, but interpretation of this difference hampered as the number of samples taken was probably not sufficient to address the spatial variability in soil properties. Additional studies are needed to develop simple and cost‐effective procedures for the evaluation of ecological quality of urban soils by combined efforts of city planners and soil scientists.
