Effect of long-term beef manure application on soil test phosphorus,organic carbon,and winter wheat yield

In this study, 24 years (1990–2013) of data from a long-term experiment, in Stillwater, Oklahoma (OK), were used to determine the effect of beef manure on soil test phosphorus (STP), soil organic carbon (SOC), and winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield. Beef manure was applied every 4 years at a rate of 269 kg nitrogen (N) ha^?1, while inorganic fertilizers were applied annually at 67 kg N ha^?1, 14.6 kg phosphorus (P) ha^?1, and 27.8 kg potassium (K) ha^?1 for N, P, and K, respectively. Averaged across years, application of beef manure, and inorganic P maintained STP above 38 mg kg^?1 of Mehlich-3 extractable P, a level that is far beyond crop requirements. A more rapid decline in SOC was observed in the check plot compared to the manure-treated plot. This study shows that the application of animal manure is a viable option to maintaining SOC levels, while also optimizing grain yield.     

长期施肥红壤稻田有机碳演变规律及影响因素

利用1981年起设置的水稻土长期施肥定位试验,分析了CK(不施肥)、N(单施氮肥)、NPK(氮磷钾配施)、NPK2(2倍氮磷钾配施)和NPKM(有机无机肥配施)等施肥措施下土壤有机碳的演变规律及其与作物产量和土壤养分(全氮、碱解氮、全磷、速效磷、全钾和速效钾)的相关性.结果表明:试验30年后,各个处理的土壤有机碳含量均有上升,其中CK、N、NPK、NPK2和NPKM的土壤有机碳在试验30年分别比试验前增加18.95％、17.72％、23.36％、16.92％和32.68％.与CK处理相比,NPK、NPK2和NPKM处理的土壤有机碳平均提高了4.09％、4.03％和25.68％.土壤有机碳含量与水稻产量呈显著相关(P＜0.001),相关系数r为0.410,这说明土壤有机碳含量的增加可以促进水稻增产.土壤有机碳与土壤养分中的碱解氮、速效磷和全磷含量均表现出极显著相关(P＜0.001),相关系数r分别为0.452、0.559和0.487,但是与钾含量相关不显著.这表明:有机无机肥配施可以持续快速提高红壤性水稻土的有机碳含量,同时在有机无机肥配施过程中应适当增施钾肥,从而促进土壤肥力平衡和维持作物高产稳产,实现农业可持续性.     

Dynamics of soil carbon to nitrogen ratio changes under long‐term fertilizer addition in wheat‐corn double cropping systems of China

Soil carbon to nitrogen (C:N) ratio is one of the important properties of terrestrial ecosystems. Here, we report a study of soil C:N ratio dynamics in wheat‐corn double cropping systems based on four long‐term experimental sites in China: three in the temperate zone and one in the sub‐tropical zone. We evaluate effects of long‐term fertilizer input on soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (TN) by comparing three treatments: no added fertilizer (the control), added nitrogen‐phosphorus‐potassium chemical fertilizers (NPK), and chemical fertilizers combined with manure (NPKM). Our study shows that SOC and TN had different responses to the treatments. There was an increasing trend in SOC, even without fertilizer. However, applying inorganic fertilizers only (NPK) did not maintain TN contents at some sites. The NPKM treatment resulted in a large increase in both SOC (35–147%) and TN (33 to 10%) contents, relative to the initial values. The soil C:N ratio showed a significant increase over time at the sub‐tropical site but little change at the three temperate sites. Our analysis showed similar C:N ratios (37–38) in gross input of organic materials under the NPK treatments. However, the estimated C:N ratio during decomposition was much smaller at the sub‐tropical site (23.7) than at the three temperate sites (44.0–48.2) under the NPK treatments, which may explain the increased soil C:N ratio at the sub‐tropical site. Thus, we conclude that variations in soil C:N ratio are not caused by organic matter inputs but by decomposition in the wheat‐corn double cropping systems.     

有机物料与化肥配施提高黄泥田水稻产量和土壤肥力

农业有机物料具有资源化再利用的特点,与化肥配施既可以保证作物产量,也可以提升地力。为了建立最适宜的南方低产黄泥田培肥模式,该文在浙江金衢盆地开展3年田间试验研究化肥与不同有机物料(菇渣、紫云英、牛粪和秸秆)配施对水稻产量和土壤肥力的影响。结果表明:1)有机物料与化肥配施可以显著提高水稻产量,化肥+菇渣、化肥+紫云英、化肥+牛粪和化肥+秸秆处理下,水稻三年的平均产量分别比单施化肥提高了9.7%、9.5%、12.3%和9.5%;2)有机物料与化肥配合施用,土壤有机质、土壤养分(全氮、有效磷、速效钾和CEC)及土壤容重较单施化肥处理有一定程度的改善,其中,化肥+牛粪效果最明显,有机质质量分数提高了12.5%,土壤有效磷质量分数提高了37.7%,CEC提高了16.1%;3)与单施化肥相比,化肥+菇渣、化肥+牛粪处理下5 mm机械稳定性大团聚体分别提高了10.4%和6.7%,各配施处理均显著降低了团聚体破坏率。总得来讲,连续三年有机物料与化肥配施较单施化肥处理提高了水稻产量、改善了土壤肥力状况、增加了土壤团聚体稳定性,其中又以牛粪与化肥配合施用效果最佳。     

有机养分替代对小麦产量、土壤肥力及麦田氮磷径流流失的影响

为探讨不同有机肥替代率对小麦减肥增效及减少麦田氮磷流失的效果,在等氮有机养分替代条件下进行田间小区监测试验,设置8种不同处理,分别为空白对照(CK),常规施肥(CF),100%、50%、30%猪粪有机养分替代氮肥(M1、M2、M3)及100%、50%、30%秸秆有机养分替代氮肥(F1、F2、F3),研究有机肥替代率对小麦产量、麦田氮磷流失、肥料利用率和土壤肥力的影响。结果表明,100%有机养分替代处理与常规施肥处理相比小麦产量均显著降低,但减少了麦田氮径流流失,提高了土壤肥力。麦田不同处理下总氮流失量为21.90~33.66 kg·hm^-2,与常规施肥处理相比,不同比例猪粪、秸秆有机养分替代处理总氮流失量减少了8.44%~25.94%;总磷流失量为0.60~2.00 kg·hm^-2,100%有机养分替代处理相比于常规处理总磷流失量升高了24.64%~44.93%。不同处理下小麦氮、磷肥利用率分别为17%~35%、5%~19%,其中30%~50%猪粪有机养分替代处理下氮、磷肥利用率较高,而100%猪粪、秸秆有机养分替代氮、磷肥利用率较常规施肥处理均显著降低。有机养分替代能够缓解土壤酸化,使土壤pH值维持稳定,与常规施肥处理相比,有机养分替代处理下土壤肥力有所提高。综合不同比例猪粪、秸秆有机养分替代对小麦产量、土壤肥力及麦田氮磷径流流失的影响,30%~50%猪粪有机养分替代在保证小麦高产稳产的同时,能有效降低麦田氮径流流失量,且维持较低水平磷径流流失量,是一种适宜的资源有效利用、节肥增效的有机养分替代模式。本研究结果为小麦生产中合理利用养分资源、减少化肥投入、控制麦田氮磷径流流失提供了参考。     

长期施用有机肥对稻麦轮作体系土壤有机碳氮组分的影响

【目的】 以湖北武汉地区长期稻麦轮作制度下施肥试验地作为研究对象,研究了长期不同施肥处理对耕层土壤有机碳、全氮及活性碳氮组分的影响,为优化稻麦轮作体系下施肥措施,实现土壤固碳减排,培肥土壤提供理论依据。 【方法】 长期施肥试验开始于1981年,试验处理包括不施肥 (CK)、施化学氮肥 (N)、施化学氮磷肥 (NP)、施化学氮磷钾肥 (NPK)、单施有机肥 (M) 及有机无机肥配施处理 (NPKM)。收集2017年小麦收获后耕层 (0—20 cm) 土壤,测定各小区土壤中的有机碳 (SOC)、全氮 (TN)、微生物量碳氮 (MBC、MBN)、水溶性碳 (DOC)、热水溶性有机碳 (HWSC)、颗粒有机碳氮 (POC和PON)、轻组有机碳氮 (LFOC和LFON) 及氯化钾浸提氮 (KEN,即水溶性无机氮) 的含量并分析各指标间的关系。 【结果】 1) 除KEN外,长期施用有机肥显著增加耕层土壤的各碳氮组分含量,特别是有机无机肥配施处理。2) 各活性有机碳组分占SOC的百分比由高到低排序为POC > LFOC > HWSC > MBC > DOC,各氮组分占TN的百分比由高到低排序为PON > LFON > MBN > KEN,其中POC占SOC的24.04%～37.64%,PON占TN的12.09%～20.24%,且有机肥处理下POC/SOC、PON/TN显著高于其余处理。3) 通过对土壤有机碳及各活性有机碳的对施肥的敏感性分析可得,各活性碳敏感性指数均显著高于SOC,且DOC的敏感性最高。4) 通过各组分间相关性分析可知,除KEN外,各碳、氮组分间显著正相关,其中DOC与SOC、PON与TN关系更为紧密,表明DOC及PON可较好地反应出SOC、TN的变化情况。 【结论】 在湖北稻麦轮作地区,长期有机无机肥配施处理显著增加了土壤碳库及氮库,促进了土壤碳、氮的积累,尤其是颗粒有机碳和有机氮 (POC和PON)。水溶性碳 (DOC) 对施肥反应最为敏感,可作为指示该地区有机物早期变化的指示物。      

土壤中可溶性氮和pH对有机肥和化肥的短期响应

通过温室盆栽试验,施用猪粪堆肥(PC)、污泥堆肥(SC)、菜籽饼肥(CM)和无机化肥(IF)后,对土壤pH值和不同形态氮素的短期响应进行研究,探讨土壤可溶性无机氮、有机氮及土壤pH值之间的相互关系。结果表明,CM,PC和IF处理的pH值都呈现先快速下降后缓慢回升的趋势,但PC处理下降幅度较小;而SC处理和不施肥对照(CK)处理的pH值基本不变;不同施肥处理均提高了土壤中氮素水平,3种有机肥中以CM处理最显著地提高了土壤中总可溶性氮(TDN)、NH4+-N、NO3--N和可溶性有机氮(DON)浓度,PC处理的次之,SC处理的最弱,而IF处理与CM处理提高幅度相似。不同施肥处理中土壤可溶性氮表现出不同的短期响应,IF处理和CM处理的TDN分别经过11,13d的稳定期后迅速上升到一个较高的水平,至31d开始下降;PC处理和SC处理未出现突然升高的现象,而是前20d较稳定在一定的范围内波动,之后缓慢下降,总体与对照趋势一致。不同处理土壤中NH4+-N均呈下降趋势;IF处理、CM处理的NO3--N呈增加趋势,PC处理的呈先增加后降低趋势,而SC处理的呈缓慢下降趋势,结果说明不同有机肥在土壤中的转化存在明显的差异。相关性分析显示,CM处理、IF处理的土壤pH值与NH4+-N呈极显著正相关,而与NO3--N呈极显著负相关;除PC处理外,其他处理的DON含量与TDN具有显著正相关性,而PC处理的DON同时与NH4+-N、NO3--N呈显著负相关。     

不同施肥措施对旱地采煤塌陷区复垦土壤结构及玉米品质的影响

研究不同施肥措施对复垦土壤结构及玉米品质的影响,以期深入理解采煤塌陷区复垦土壤有机碳固持机制。采集复垦1年的定位试验各处理耕层(0—20 cm)土样以及玉米籽粒,分析土壤水稳性团聚体(>2,0.25~2,0.053~0.25 mm)及粉黏粒组分(<0.053 mm)中有机碳(SOC)及全氮(TN)含量、玉米籽粒蛋白质、淀粉和脂肪含量的变化。试验设不施肥(CK)、施化肥(NPK)、单施有机肥(M)和有机无机肥配施(MNPK)4个处理。结果表明,同CK相比,NPK处理显著提高TN含量、玉米籽粒产量、淀粉和脂肪含量,增幅分别为11.23%,98.53%,1.16%和12.71%;M处理显著提高SOC、TN、>2 mm和0.25~2 mm团聚体中有机碳含量、籽粒产量、蛋白质、淀粉和脂肪含量,增幅分别为44.77%,13.23%,52.73%,60.22%,255.15%,23.28%,1.67%和12.71%;MNPK处理显著提高SOC、TN、各粒径团聚体及粉黏粒组分中SOC和TN含量(除0.25~2 mm团聚体中TN含量)、玉米籽粒产量、蛋白质、淀粉和脂肪含量,增幅分别为46.21%,29.08%,39.23%(>2 mm-C),49.07%(0.25~2 mm-C),110.41%(0.053~0.25 mm-C),40.35%(<0.053 mm-C),22.48%(>2 mm-N),43.29%(0.053~0.25 mm-N),33.33%(<0.053 mm-N),211.37%,35.34%,0.48%和25.18%。表明当养分投入量相同时,有机无机肥配施(MNPK)有利于采煤塌陷区复垦土壤团聚体对有机碳的物理保护,增加土壤有机碳累积,提升土壤肥力,提高作物产量,改善作物品质。     

水热梯度变化及不同施肥措施对东北地区土壤有机碳、氮影响

基于样区的野外观察、土壤实测数据和20年气象资料的统计,分析了东北样区内土壤有机碳含量、储量和土壤全氮含量的空间分布格局及其与年均温(t)、降雨量(p)、有效积温(s)和降雨量/年均温p/t之间的关系.分析了相同水热条件下长期施肥措施对土壤有机碳含量和土壤全氮含量的影响,以及不同水热条件下相同施肥措施间的差异.结果表明:样区内土壤有机碳含量、储量和土壤全氮沿纬度呈现出南低北高的分布趋势;有机碳含量、有机碳储量与气候因素之间存在良好的相关性,土壤全氮含量与p/t间存在良好的相关性.长期施肥处理表明,在相同水热条件下外源有机肥的加入,以及合理施肥都能提高土壤碳含量;相同施肥处理土壤有机碳、氮在不同水热梯度条件下差异显著.     

长期不同施肥处理对棕壤氮储量的影响

为揭示施肥对棕壤氮素状况的影响,利用29年长期肥料定位试验,研究了不同施肥处理条件下土壤全氮在0―60 cm土层的分布特征,并在此基础上计算0―60cm土层氮库的储量变化。结果表明,不同施肥处理土壤全氮含量、C/N比值均随土层深度增加而降低,其影响主要表现在表层;而对0―60cm 土层全氮储量有显著性影响（P0.05）。长期不同施肥处理后土壤全氮及其储量变化趋势是:高量有机肥区＞低量有机肥区＞化肥区＞无肥区＞试验前（1979年）,特别是高量有机肥和化肥配合施用效果最显著;单施化肥处理土壤全氮含量和储量虽有缓慢提高,但差异不显著。说明土壤氮素含量的提高与施肥措施密切相关,有机肥和化肥配合施用能提高土壤全氮含量和储量,是维持土壤肥力的最优施肥方式。     

Grain Yield,Yield Components,Soil Fertility,and Biological Activity under Organic and Conventional Rice Production Systems

A field experiment was conducted for 2 years on a clayey Vertisol to compare the organic and conventional methods of rice farming. Two main plot treatments were with and without plant protection and four subplot treatments were (1) control (CON); (2) inorganic fertilizers (CF); (3) organics (OF), and (4) inorganics + organics (integrated nutrient management, INM). The organics were green manure, paddy straw, and poultry manure. After 2 years, the main plot effects were not significant in terms of crop productivity though there was a reduction in soil biological parameters. Increase in grain yield was larger with inorganics and INM as compared to the organics because of the higher panicle number. However, organics increased the microbial populations, biomass carbon, nitrogen, enzyme activities, and soil fertility as compared to inorganics. Thus, organics improved the nutrient availability by influencing the soil biological activity although it did not reflect in greater yields.     

Effect of Integrated Nutrient Management on Soil Physical Properties and Crop Productivity under a Maize (Zea mays)–Mustard (Brassica campestris) Cropping Sequence in Acidic Soils of Northeast India

A five-year (2001/02–2006/07) field experiment was carried out on acidic clay loam soil classified as Typic Hapludalf with a maize–mustard crop sequence to study the effect of continuous application of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK) fertilizers alone and in combination with lime, farmyard manure (FYM), and biofertilizers on soil physical properties, soil organic carbon (SOC), soil microbial biomass carbon (SMBC), and crop yields on the hilly ecosystem of Meghalaya. Significant improvement in the soil physical conditions of the soil was observed under integrated application of organic manure and inorganic fertilizers. Addition of NPK fertilizers along with organic manure, lime, and biofertilizers increased soil organic carbon (SOC) content, aggregate stability, moisture-retention capacity, and infiltration rate of the soil while reducing bulk density. The SOC content under the treatment of 100% NPK + lime + biofertilizer + FYM was significantly greater (68.58%) than in control plots. Maize and mustard crop yields also significantly increased (4.73- and 21.09-folds, respectively) with continuous application of balanced inorganic (100% NPK) + lime + biofertilizer + FYM as compared to the control plots. However, crop yields drastically reduced under application of integrated nutrients without FYM as compared to the treatment with FYM application. Thus, the results suggest that integrated use of a balanced inorganic fertilizer in combination with lime and organic manure sustains a soil physical environment that is better for achieving higher crop productivity under intensive cropping systems in the hilly ecosystem of northeastern India.     

土地利用变化与长期施肥对黑土有机碳密度的影响

土壤管理方式影响土壤碳库储量,进而影响土壤的源汇功能。该研究通过测定草地(GL)、裸地(BL)、农田无肥(NF)、化肥(NP)和化肥配施有机肥(NPM)处理的有机碳含量和土壤容重,估算了不同土地利用和施肥管理方式下的土壤有机碳密度的变化及农田的固碳潜力。结果表明,土壤有机碳含量表层最高而且变化较大,向下逐渐降低且变化较小。对于不同植被覆盖的3个处理,草地0-20cm土层土壤有机碳含量比裸地和无肥分别高出20.6%和16.4%。对于不同施肥管理方式,化肥有机肥配施土壤有机碳含量比无肥和化肥分别高出25.4%和15.5%,所有处理有机碳含量在160-200cm土层没有显著差异。0-40cm土层及0-100cm土体有机碳密度的变化趋势是NPMGLNPNFBL;40cm以下有机碳储量无规律性变化,表现出较大的变异性,这可能与土壤本身的空间异质性有关。草地100cm土体有机碳储量比裸地和无肥分别增加6.8%和5.7%,裸地和无肥无显著差异;化肥加有机肥100cm土体有机碳储量比化肥和无肥分别增加10.4%和5.9%。经估算,松嫩平原黑土区0-100cm土体有机碳库储量约为1.35Pg,农田有机培肥后碳库储量可达到0.96Pg,其固碳潜力约为0.05Pg。0-100cm土体有机碳密度与0-20cm土层有机碳含量及有机碳密度呈极显著正相关(r=0.99;r=0.97,P0.01),表明土壤表层有机碳含量及密度对0-100cm土壤有机碳库具有决定作用。     

长期有机培肥模式下黑土碳与氮变化及氮素矿化特征

土壤氮的矿化是土壤氮素肥力的重要指标,是影响作物产量至关重要的因素。本研究依托黑土长期定位试验,通过取样分析研究了32 a不同培肥模式下黑土碳、 氮及主要活性组分的变化,采用淹水培养法研究了不同施肥模式下黑土氮素的矿化特征。结果表明,施肥显著提高黑土可溶性碳（DOC）、 氮（DON）的含量及其比例。在氮、 磷、 钾化肥的基础上配施有机肥,显著降低了土壤微生物量氮（SMBN）占土壤总氮的比例,提高了土壤微生物量的C/N比值（SMBC/SMBN）,促进了土壤氮的生物固持。施肥32 a后,单施常量和高量有机肥处理的土壤氮的矿化量（Nt）显著提高,分别相当于不施肥的8.2倍和10.2倍,而单施氮或氮磷钾化肥对黑土氮素矿化量无明显影响。施用有机肥显著提高了土壤氮素的矿化率（Nt/TN）,但有机肥配施化肥（氮或氮磷钾）的处理与单施有机肥相比,黑土氮的矿化率显著降低,降低幅度分别为23.5%~32.1% 和14.1%~17.8%。土壤氮素矿化量与土壤有机质、 全氮储量、 活性碳、 氮组分均呈极显著线性相关,但氮素的矿化率随着有机质和全氮含量的提高而提高至0.4% 后基本稳定。表明尽管土壤氮的矿化与有机质的含量直接相关,但土壤有机质的品质同样决定着土壤氮素的矿化能力。施有机氮是提高土壤供氮能力的重要途径。     

Carbon and nitrogen pools in different aggregates of a Chinese Mollisol as influenced by long-term fertilization

Purpose  

It is known that soil organic matter (SOM) dynamics are sensitive to fertilizations, but it is different from soil to soil. It is unclear how the long-term applications of organic manure and mineral fertilizers impact the accumulation and distribution of soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (TN) especially in soil aggregate fractions of Chinese Mollisols, which have been intensively cultivated for decades under maize monocropping and conventional tillage ways. Thereby, the research of this kind is very important for the sustainable use of agricultural land in China, where land resources are extremely limited for its huge population. The objectives of this study were to identify how the long-term fertilization treatments would affect the aggregate, SOC and TN distribution pattern in the Chinese Mollisol, and how soil aggregation contribute to the storage and stabilization process of SOC and TN.     

玉米地土壤微生物量碳、氮及微生物熵对不同物料还田的响应

在四川丘陵区紫色土上进行田间试验,以无物料还田为对照,对比分析了蚕豆秸秆、油菜秸秆、猪粪3种物料还田对夏玉米吐丝期和收获期0—20,20—40cm土层土壤有机碳、全氮、微生物量碳氮含量及微生物熵的影响,以期为农业废弃有机物料的综合利用及四川丘陵区土壤质量的提升提供理论参考。结果表明:(1)尽管有机物料还田于0—20cm土层中,0—20,20—40cm土层土壤有机碳(SOC)、全氮(TN)、微生物量碳(SMBC)、微生物量氮(SMBN)含量均受到有机物料的深刻影响。各处理0—20cm土层SOC、TN、SMBC、SMBN含量均显著高于20—40cm土层,且上下2层土壤SOC、TN、SMBC和SMBN含量在生育时期间均表现为吐丝期>收获期。(2)在2个生育时期,3种物料还田均能提高0—20,20—40cm土层SOC、TN、SMBC、SMBN含量。与对照相比,物料还田处理的SOC、TN、SMBC、SMBN含量分别提高2.6%~141.2%,1.9%~33.0%,5.1%~114.7%,41.5%~98.7%,其中收获期各处理0—20,20—40cm土层SOC、SMBC、SMBN均表现为油菜秸秆>蚕豆秸秆>猪粪>对照,TN表现为蚕豆秸秆>猪粪>油菜秸秆>对照。(3)各处理SMBC/SMBN、qMB、SMBN/TN分别为3.74~10.53,0.86%~2.19%,1.01%~3.41%,且物料还田降低SMBC/SMBN,提高土壤qMB和SMBN/TN值。相关分析表明,SMBC、SMBN与SOC、TN之间均存在极显著正相关关系。因此,农业生产中可通过物料还田提供给微生物足够的碳氮营养,提高土壤SMBC、SMBN、SOC、TN含量和qMB值,维持较高的农田生产力,提升土壤质量,但具体施用物料时还需寻求土壤肥力提升、玉米产量增加以及环境效益之间的平衡。     

长期施用化肥和有机肥对太湖地区水稻土有机碳特征的影响

A long-term experiment set up in 1980 compared the effects of applying manures and chemical fertilizers on a paddy soil in the Taihu Lake region,China.Of the fourteen randomly distributed treatments consisting of different combinations of organic manure,inorganic nitrogen (N),phosphorus (P),and potassium (K),and rice straw,eight were selected for the present study in 2007.Application of organic manure plus straw significantly increased soil organic carbon (SOC) content of the topsoil (0-10 cm) compared to that of chemical fertilizers alone.The content of SOC was relatively stable in the 10-30 cm layer in the chemical fertilizer treatments and in the 20-40 cm layer in the manure treatments.The stable carbon isotope ratio (δ 13 C) ranged from 24‰ to 28‰ and increased gradually with depth.The content of SOC was significantly (P < 0.05) negatively correlated with δ 13 C.In the 0-20 cm layer,the δ 13 C value significantly decreased in the treatments of manure alone (M),manure and chemical N and P fertilizers (MNP),manure and chemical N,P,and K fertilizers (MNPK),manure,rice straw,and chemical N fertilizer (MRN),and chemical N fertilizer and rice straw (CNR),as compared with the no-fertilizer control.In the 30-50 cm layer,however,the ratio significantly increased in all the treatments except Treatment CNR.Mineralization of organic C peaked in the first 2-4 d of incubation and gradually leveled off thereafter over the first 3 weeks,being faster in the manure treatments than the chemical fertilizer treatments.The average rate of mineralization varied from 55.36 to 75.46 mL CO 2 kg-1 d-1 and that of stable mineralization from 10 to 20 mL CO 2 kg-1 d-1.In eight weeks of incubation,cumulative mineralization was always higher in the manure treatments than the chemical fertilizer treatments,being the highest in Treatment MRN.Combined humus in the soil was mainly (over 50%) composed of tightly combined fraction.The loosely combined humus and its ratio of humic acid (HA) to fulvic acid (FA) significantly increased with long-term application of organic manure and chemical fertilizers.It could be concluded that the cycle of organic C in the paddy soil ecosystem studied was stable over the long-term application of fertilizers and continued cultivation.     

长期施肥棕壤团聚体分布及其碳氮含量变化

【目的】探究玉米-玉米-大豆轮作体系不同施肥处理对土壤团聚体分布及其有机碳、全氮的影响,以期深入了解施肥对土壤培肥、改善土壤结构的机制。【方法】选取不施肥（CK）,化肥（NPK）,低量有机肥（M1）,低量有机肥与化肥配施（M1NPK）,高量有机肥（M2）,高量有机肥与化肥配施（M2NPK）6个处理。采集棕壤37年长期定位试验微区不同施肥处理的0-20 cm和20-40 cm土样,分析其水稳性团聚体（ 1 mm、1~0.5 mm、0.5~0.25 mm、0.25~0.053 mm及 0.053 mm）分布及其有机碳、全氮分配特征。【结果】棕壤长期施肥对团聚体分布及其碳氮的影响0-20 cm大于20-40 cm,随土层深度的增加,有机碳（SOC）、全氮（TN）含量减少。各处理团聚体及碳、氮在团聚体中的分配主要在黏粉粒中（40%以上）。与CK相比,NPK处理显著提高了黏粉粒的含量,降低大团聚体与微团聚体含量,显著增加黏粉粒储碳比例;M1、M2处理显著增加 1 mm团聚体数量及其SOC含量,显著增加 0.25 mm各粒级团聚体的储碳比例,且M2处理显著高于M1处理;M1NPK、M2NPK处理也显著增加 1 mm团聚体数量及其SOC含量,M1NPK与M2NPK处理在NPK处理的基础上依次增加0.5~0.25 mm（M1NPK）、1~0.5 mm及 1 mm团聚体的储碳比例,M2NPK处理 0.25 mm团聚体储碳比例最高,土壤团聚体全氮的变化趋势与有机碳类似。【结论】棕壤连续有机无机配合施用可显著增加土壤大团聚体数量、SOC、TN含量及其储碳、氮比例,是提高土壤质量、改善土壤结构的有效施肥措施。     

Enhancing phosphorus availability,soil organic carbon,maize productivity and farm profitability through biochar and organic–inorganic fertilizers in an irrigated maize agroecosystem under semi‐arid climate

Biochar amendments offer promising potential to improve soil fertility, soil organic carbon (SOC) and crop yields; however, a limited research has explored these benefits of biochar in the arid and semi‐arid regions. This two‐year field study investigated the effects of Acacia tree biomass‐derived biochar, applied at 0 and 10 t ha^?1 rates with farmyard manure (FYM) or poultry manure (PM) and mineral phosphorus (P) fertilizer combinations (100 kg P ha^‐1), on maize (Zea mays L.) productivity, P use efficiency (PUE) and farm profitability. The application of biochar with organic–inorganic P fertilizers significantly increased soil P and SOC contents than the sole organic or inorganic P fertilizers. Addition of biochar and PM as 100% P source resulted in the highest soil P (104% increase over control) and SOC contents (203% higher than control). However, maize productivity and PUE were significantly higher under balanced P fertilizer (50% organic + 50% mineral fertilizer) with biochar and the increase was 110%, 94% and 170% than 100%‐FYM, 100%‐PM and 100% mineral fertilizer, respectively. Maize productivity and yield correlated significantly positively with soil P and SOC contents These positive effects were possibly due to the ability of biochar to improve soil properties, P availability from organic–inorganic fertilizers and SOC which resulted in higher PUE and maize productivity. Despite the significant positive relationship of PUE with net economic returns, biochar incorporation with PM and mineral fertilizer combination was economically profitable, whereas FYM along biochar was not profitable due to short duration of the field experiments.     

Soil ameliorants alter physicochemical properties and fungal communities in saline-sodic soils of Northeast China

To understand the mechanisms of soil ameliorants affecting microbial communities is important for saline-sodic soils reclamation. High-throughput sequencing was used to characterize the fungal community in soils amended with four types of ameliorants over an 8-year period. Besides a control without any additional ameliorant (CK), other four treatments including 1) amendment with sandy soil (SS), 2) amendment with desulfurization gypsum (DG), 3) amendment with farm manure (FM), and 4) amendment with a mixture of SS, DG, and FM (M) were analyzed. Soil pH and electrical conductivity significantly decreased with the addition of soil ameliorants, whereas the soil organic carbon (SOC), total nitrogen (TN), and SOC/TN ratio (C/N) significantly increased in the FM and M treatments compared with the CK treatment. Fungal richness increased significantly with the mixed ameliorants addition (M). Distinct fungal community structures were observed in the treatments with soil ameliorants. The fungal community composition was significantly associated with the SOC, C/N, aggregate content with a diameter > 0.25 mm and geometric mean diameter. The changes in these soil characteristics were highly correlated with the ameliorants additions, suggesting that the impacts of ameliorants on the soil fungal community occurred indirectly as a result of alterations to soil physiochemical properties.
