Methane production and consumption in a cultivated humisol

Summary Laboratory studies were conducted on a cultivated humisol containing populations of both methanotrophs and methanogens. The molar ratio CO₂ produced : O₂ consumed :CH₄ consumed was 0.27:1.0:1.0. Methane oxidation showed typical Michaelis-Menten kinetics with apparent K _m values for CH4 and O₂ of 66.2 M and 37.0 M, respectively. The low CO₂ yields and the effects of low dissolved oxygen indicated the presence of aerobic obligate methanotrophs. It is suggested that the methanotrophs in this soil are not entirely dependent on atmospheric CH₄ for growth and survival in situ.     

氮磷肥对黑土玉米农田生态系统土壤微生物量碳、氮的影响

通过田间氮磷肥配施试验研究了氮磷配施对黑土玉米农田生态系统玉米不同生育时期微生物量碳、氮的影响。微生物量随玉米不同生育期的动态变化表明,氮磷肥对微生物量碳和微生物量氮的动态影响并不同步,微生物量碳和微生物量氮变化最显著的时期均是授粉期,但此时微生物量碳是最低的谷值,而微生物量氮是最高的峰值。不同氮磷配比对微生物量碳影响的回归分析表明,氮肥是影响微生物量碳的主导因素,无论是适量施用还是过量施用都是氮肥对微生物量碳的影响较大。不同氮磷配比对微生物量氮影响的回归分析表明,过量氮肥的施用减少了土壤微生物量氮的含量。磷肥无论高量和低量均能增加微生物量氮的含量,但随着施用量的增加对微生物量氮的正效应减小。氮磷配合施用可增加土壤的微生物量氮,由此可见无论单施氮肥还是单施磷肥,过量施用对微生物量氮的增加都是不利的,只有氮磷配合施用才是增加土壤微生物量氮的有效途径。     

不同生育时期根际土壤渍水逆境对冬小麦N、P、K素营养的影响

运用盆栽模拟土壤渍水逆境试验，研究不同生育时期根际土壤渍水逆境对不同小麦品种N、P、K素吸收、运转和分配的影响。结果表明，根际土壤渍水逆境对不同小麦品种N、P、K素吸收的影响有异;不同生育时期根际土壤渍水逆境显著影响根系对N、P素的吸收、运转与分配，以孕穗期渍水逆境影响最大，其次为灌浆期和拔节期，而不同生育时期根际土壤渍水逆境对K素的吸收影响较小。孕穗期以前浈水逆境主要影响小麦根系对N，P，K案的吸收．对N、P、K素在小麦体内的运输和分配影响较小；灌浆期渍水逆境不仅影响根系对N、P、K素的吸收．同时也影响N、P素在地上部各器官中的运转和分配，但对K素在小麦体内的运转和分配影响较小。因此，基肥中施足P肥和K肥，拔节孕穗期重施速效N肥，灌浆期叶面喷施KH2PO4对于培育壮秆大穗，减轻小麦溃害，提高受渍小麦籽粒产量具有非常重要的实际意义。

种植密度氮肥互作对棉花产量及氮素利用效率的影响

种植密度和氮肥投入是棉花生产中重要的管理措施,为提高棉花产量与氮素利用效率,于2013-2014年以转Bt+Cp TI品种中棉所79为材料,在河南省安阳市中棉所试验农场设置了3个种植密度(分别为3.00,5.25,7.50株/m~2),4个氮肥用量(分别为0,112.5、225.0、337.5 kg/hm~2,以N计),探讨种植密度与氮肥对棉花产量及氮素利用效率的影响,结果表明:棉花的叶面积指数、生物量与氮吸收量随种植密度和氮肥用量的增加而增加,而收获指数随种植密度和氮肥用量的增加而下降,中密中氮处理(种植密度5.25株/m~2、施氮量225.0 kg/hm~2)单位面积成铃数较多,籽棉和皮棉产量、氮肥回收利用率优于其他处理,高密低氮处理(种植密度7.50株/m~2、施氮量112.5 kg/hm~2)氮肥农学利用效率、氮肥偏生产力、氮生理利用率高于其他处理,而籽棉、皮棉产量与中密中氮处理较接近,研究表明增密减氮可实现棉花的高产高效。     

中国土壤微生物量的大小

The microbial biomass C, N and P of soils all over China were determined in this study to study their affecting factors. The results, about 100-417 mg C kg^-1 soil, 18-51 mg N kg^-1 soil and 4.4-27.3 mg P kg^-1 soil, showed the biomass C, N and P in linear relationship with the soil total organic C, toal N and soil organic P. The ratios of C: N and C:P, ranging from 5.6 to 9.6 and from 11.2 to 48.4 respectively, were affected by soil pH, texture, crop rotation, macroclimate, etc. The ratio of C:N in soil biomass increases gradually from the north to the south in China.     

热带亚热带酸性土壤硝化作用与氮淋溶特征

通过室内好气培养和土柱模拟淋洗培养试验,研究了氨基氮肥加入对热带亚热带4种不同性质和利用方式酸性土壤硝化、氮及盐基离子淋溶、土壤及淋出液酸化的影响。4种土壤分别为采自花岗岩发育的海南林地砖红壤(HR)、玄武岩发育的云南林地砖红壤(YR)、第四纪红黏土发育的江西旱地红壤(RU)和第四纪下蜀黄土发育的江苏旱地黄棕壤(YU)。结果表明:4种土壤硝化作用大小表现为YURUYRHR。HR主要以可溶性有机氮(DON)和NH_4~+-N形态淋失,YU土壤的氮淋溶形态以NO_3~–-N为主,YR和RU土壤的氮淋溶形态NO_3~–-N、NH_4~+-N和DON兼而有之。盐基离子总淋失量与NO_3~–-N淋失量显著正相关,但各盐基离子淋失由于离子本性和土壤性质差异并不完全一致。Ca~(2+)在缓冲外源NH_4~+-N硝化致酸和平衡NO_3~–-N淋失所带负电荷过程中起重要作用。在阳离子交换量小、盐基饱和度低的土壤(如RU土壤),外源NH_4~+-N的硝化和淋失不仅导致盐基离子淋失,而且引发NH_4~+-N、甚至是H~+淋失。综上,热带亚热带地区土壤上外源氮输入的增加可能会在更短的时间内导致氮素向系统外的流失,引发环境问题。     

Cotton lint yield variability in a heterogeneous soil at a landscape scale

Landscape variability associated with topographic features affects the spatial pattern of soil water and N redistribution, and thus N uptake and crop yield. A landscape-scale study was conducted in a center pivot irrigated field on the southern High Plains of Texas in 1999 to assess soil water, soil NO₃-N, cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) lint yield, and N uptake variability in the landscape, and to determine the spatial correlation between these landscape variables using a state-space approach. The treatments were irrigation at 50 and 75% cotton potential evapotranspiration (ET). Neutron access tubes were placed at a 15-m interval along a 710 m (50% ET) and 820 m (75% ET) transect across the field. Soil NO₃-N in early spring was autocorrelated at a distance varying between 60 and 80 m. Measured soil volumetric water content (WC), total N uptake, and lint yield were generally higher on lower landscape positions. Cotton lint yield was significantly correlated to soil WC (r=0.76), soil NO₃-N (r=0.35), and site elevation (r=−0.54). Differences of site elevation between local neighboring points explained the soil water, NO₃-N and lint yield variability at the micro-scale level in the landscape. Soil WC, cotton lint yield, N uptake, and clay content were crosscorrelated with site elevation across a lag distance of ±30–40 m. The state-space analysis showed that cotton lint yield was positively weighted on soil WC availability and negatively weighted on site elevation. Cotton lint yield state-space models give insights on the association of soil physical and chemical properties, lint yield, and landscape processes, and have the potential to improve water and N management at the landscape-scale.     

氮磷复(混)合肥料的氮素肥效

研究复合肥料中氮素的利用率、残留率、损失率、肥效和残效表明:在作基肥施用的条件下,复(混)肥料对春小麦籽粒的增产效果相同。春麦对肥料氮素的吸收利用取决于氮素的形态,尿素磷铵中的铵态氮利用率为35.0％,硝酸磷铵普钙中的铵态氮为31.4％,尿素磷铵中的尿素氮为28.1％,硝酸磷铵普钙中的硝态氮为24.8％。硝酸磷铵普钙中的硝态氮具有最高的土壤残留率(48.9％),尿素磷铵中的铵氮损失率最低(22.7％)。不同复(混)合肥均有明显残效,水稻的籽粒产量都高于对照,不同复(混)合肥之间差异不明显。水稻对残留氮的利用率不同复(混)合肥之间的差异也不明显。
