Purpose
Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB) are ubiquitous and important for nitrogen transformations in terrestrial ecosystems. However, the distribution patterns of these microorganisms as affected by the terrestrial environments across a large geographical scale are not well understood. This study was designed to gain insights into the ecological characteristics of AOA and AOB in 65 soils, collected from a wide range of soil and ecosystem types.Materials and methods
Barcoded pyrosequencing in combination with quantitative PCR was employed to characterize the relative abundance, diversity, and community composition of archaeal 16S rRNA gene, and AOA and AOB amoA genes in 65 soil samples.Results and discussion
The operational taxonomic unit richness and Shannon diversity of Thaumarchaeota, AOA, and AOB were highly variable among different soils, but their variations were best explained by soil pH. Soil pH was strongly correlated with the overall community composition of ammonia oxidizers, as measured by the pairwise Bray–Curtis dissimilarity across all sites. These findings were further corroborated by the evident pH-dependent distribution patterns of four thaumarchaeal groups (I.1a-associated, I.1b, I.1c, and I.1c-associated) and four AOB clusters (2, 3a.1, 10, and 12). The ratios of AOA to AOB amoA gene copy numbers significantly decreased with increasing pH, suggesting a competitive advantage of AOA over AOB in acidic soils.Conclusions
These results suggest that the distribution of ammonia oxidizers across large-scale biogeographical settings can be largely predicted along the soil pH gradient, thus providing important indications for the ecological characteristics of AOA and AOB in different soils. 相似文献2.

中国土壤学过去30年在一些关键领域的研究进展 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Due to continuous decreases in arable land area and continuous population increases,Chinese soil scientists face great challenges in meeting food demands,mitigating adverse environmental impacts,and sustaining or enhancing soil productivity under intensive agriculture.With the aim of promoting the application of soil science knowledge,this paper reviews the achievements of Chinese scientists in soil resource use and management,soil fertility,global change mitigation and soil biology over the last 30 years.During this period,soil resource science has provided essential support for the use and exploitation of Chinese soil resources,and has itself developed through introduction of new theories such as Soil Taxonomy and new technologies such as remote sensing.Soil fertility science has contributed to the alleviation and elimination of impeding physical and chemical factors that constrain availability of essential nutrients and water in soils,the understanding of nutrient cycling in agroecosystems,and the increase in nutrient use efficiency for sustainable crop production.Chinese soil scientists have contributed to the understanding of the cropland’s role in global change,particularly to the understanding of methane and nitrous oxide emission from rice fields and the effect of elevated carbon dioxide and ozone on rice-wheat system.Soil biology research has progressed in biological N fixation,distribution of fauna in Chinese soils,and bioremediation of polluted soils.A new generation of soil scientists has arisen in the last three decades.The gaps between research and application in these soil science fields are also discussed. 相似文献

Background, aim, and scope Fertilization is an important agricultural practice for increasing crop yields. In order to maintain the soil sustainability,
it is important to monitor the effects of fertilizer applications on the shifts of soil microorganisms, which control the
cycling of many nutrients in the soil. Here, culture-dependent and culture-independent approaches were used to analyze the
soil bacterial and fungal quantities and community structure under seven fertilization treatments, including Control, Manure,
Return (harvested peanut straw was returned to the plot), and chemical fertilizers of NPK, NP, NK, and PK. The objective of
this study was to examine the effects on soil microbial composition and diversity of long-term organic and chemical fertilizer
regimes in a Chinese upland red soil.
Materials and methods Soil samples were collected from a long-term experiment station at Yingtan (28°15′N, 116°55′E), Jiangxi Province of China.
The soil samples (0–20 cm) from four individual plots per treatment were collected. The total numbers of culturable bacteria
and fungi were determined as colony forming units (CFUs) and selected colonies were identified on agar plates by dilution
plate methods. Moreover, soil DNAs were extracted and bacterial 16S rRNA genes and fungal 18S rRNA genes were polymerase chain
reaction amplified, and then analyzed by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE), cloning, and sequencing.
Results The organic fertilizers, especially manure, induced the least culturable bacterial CFUs, but the highest bacterial diversity
ascertained by DGGE banding patterns. Chemical fertilizers, on the other hand, had less effect on the bacterial composition
and diversity, with the NK treatment having the lowest CFUs. For the fungal community, the manure treatment had the largest
CFUs but much fewer DGGE bands, also with the NK treatment having the lowest CFUs. The conventional identification of representative
bacterial and fungal genera showed that long-term fertilization treatments resulted in differences in soil microbial composition
and diversity. In particular, 42.4% of the identified bacterial isolates were classified into members of Arthrobacter. For fungi, Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Mucor were the most prevalent three genera, which accounted for 46.6% of the total identified fungi. The long-term fertilization
treatments resulted in different bacterial and fungal compositions ascertained by the culture-dependent and also the culture-independent
approaches.
Discussion It was evident that more representative fungal genera appeared in organic treatments than other treatments, indicating that
culturable fungi were more sensitive to organic than to chemical fertilizers. A very notable finding was that fungal CFUs
appeared maximal in organic manure treatments. This was quite different from the bacterial CFUs in the manure, indicating
that bacteria and fungi responded differently to the fertilization. Similar to bacteria, the minimum fungal CFUs were also
observed in the NK treatment. This result provided evidence that phosphorus could be a key factor for microorganisms in the
soil. Thus, despite the fact that culture-dependent techniques are not ideal for studies of the composition of natural microbial
communities when used alone, they provide one of the more useful means of understanding the growth habit, development, and
potential function of microorganisms from soil habitats. A combination of culture-dependent and culture-independent approaches
is likely to reveal more complete information regarding the composition of soil microbial communities.
Conclusions Long-term fertilization had great effects on the soil bacterial and fungal communities. Organic fertilizer applications induced
the least culturable bacterial CFUs but the highest bacterial diversity, while chemical fertilizer applications had less impact
on soil bacterial community. The largest fungal CFUs were obtained, but much lower diversity was detected in the manure treatment.
The lowest bacterial and also fungal CFUs were observed in the NK treatment. The long-term fertilization treatments resulted
in different bacterial and fungal compositions ascertained by the culture-dependent and also the culture-independent approaches.
Phosphorus fertilizer could be considered as a key factor to control the microbial CFUs and diversity in this Chinese upland
red soil.
Recommendations and perspectives Soil fungi seem to be a more sensitive indicator of soil fertility than soil bacteria. Since the major limitation of molecular
methods in soil microbial studies is the lack of discrimination between the living and dead, or active and dormant microorganisms,
both culture-dependent and culture-independent methods should be used to appropriately characterize soil microbial diversity. 相似文献

Purpose
Changes of nitrogen (N) cycle caused by N fertilization and precipitation regimes have affected the key ecosystem structure and functions in temperate steppe, which may modify the structure of soil microbial communities involved in N transformation. This paper was designated to examine the response of soil ammonia oxidizers and denitrifiers to the N fertilization and precipitation regimes in a semi-arid steppe where N and water contents are major limiting factors of the grassland productivity.Materials and methods
This study was based on a long-term N fertilization and precipitation regimes experiment in Inner Mongolia (116° 17′ 20″ E, 42° 2′ 29″ N). The treatments including CK (control), R (reduced precipitation), W (30% increase in precipitation), N (10 g N m?2 y?1), RN (reduced precipitation and 10 g N m?2 y?1), and WN (30% increase in precipitation and 10 g N m?2 y?1). Soil basic chemical properties and microbial activities were analyzed. Molecular methods were applied to determine the abundance, structure and diversity of ammonia oxidizers and denitrifiers. Statistical analysis detected the main and interactive effect of treatments on soil microbial communities and revealed the relationship between soil microbial community structures and environmental factors.Results and discussion
N fertilization significantly increased ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) abundance. Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) community structure was markedly changed in N fertilizer treatment and strongly affected by soil pH, while soil nitrate and water content correlated with AOB community structure. Soil nitrate was the key factor influencing nirK gene community structure, while soil pH and water content explained much of the variations of nosZ gene community. AOB-amoA and nosZ gene community diversities were influenced by precipitation regimes and interaction of N fertilization and precipitation regimes, respectively.Conclusions
N fertilization and precipitation regimes had significant influences on the changes of soil properties and microbial functional communities. Soil nitrification was mainly driven by AOB in the semi-arid grassland. Changes of substrate content and soil pH were the key factors in shifting functional microbial communities. The non-synergistic effects of N fertilization and precipitation regimes on the microbial functional groups indicated that the negative effect of lower pH induced by N fertilization would be alleviated by precipitation regimes, which should be well considered in grassland restoration.7.

Purpose
The nitrification inhibitor 3,4-dimethylpyrazol-phosphate (DMPP) and the urease inhibitor N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (nBTPT) can mitigate N losses through reducing nitrification and ammonia volatilization, respectively. However, the impact of repeated applications of these inhibitors on nitrogen cycling microorganisms is not well documented. This study aimed to investigate the changes in the abundance and community structure of the functional microorganisms involved in nitrification and denitrification in Australian pasture soils after repeated applications of DMPP and nBTPT.Materials and methods
Soil was collected in autumn and spring, 2014 from two pasture sites where control, urea, urea ammonium nitrate, and urea-coated inhibitors had been repeatedly applied over 2 year. Soil samples were analyzed to determine the potential nitrification rates (PNRs), the abundances of amoA, narG, nirK and bacterial 16S rRNA genes, and the community structure of ammonia oxidizers.Results and discussion
Two years of urea application resulted in a significantly lower soil pH at Terang and a significant decrease in total bacterial 16S rRNA gene abundance at Glenormiston and led to significantly higher PNRs and abundances of ammonia oxidizers compared to the control. Amendment with either DMPP or nBTPT significantly decreased PNRs and the abundance of amoA and narG genes. However, there was no fertilizer- or inhibitor-induced change in the community structure of ammonia oxidizers.Conclusions
These results suggest that there were inhibitory effects of DMPP and nBTPT on the functional groups mediating nitrification and denitrification, while no significant impact on the community structure of ammonia oxidizers was observed. The application of nitrification or urease inhibitor appears to be an effective approach targeting specific microbial groups with minimal effects on soil pH and the total bacterial abundance.8.

Soil moisture and nitrogen (N) are two important factors influencing N2O emissions and the growth of microorganisms. Here, we carried out a microcosm experiment to evaluate effects of soil moisture level and N fertilizer type on N2O emissions and abundances and composition of associated microbial communities in the two typical arable soils. The abundances and community composition of functional microbes involved in nitrification and denitrification were determined via quantitative PCR (qPCR) and terminal restriction length fragment polymorphism (T-RFLP), respectively. Results showed that N2O production was higher at 90% water-filled pore (WFPS) than at 50% WFPS. The N2O emissions in the two soils amended with ammonium were higher than those amended with nitrate, especially at relatively high moisture level. In both soils, increased soil moisture stimulated the growth of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and nitrite reducer (nirK). Ammonium fertilizer treatment increased the population size of AOB and nirK genes in the alluvial soil, while reduced the abundances of ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and denitrifiers (nirK and nosZ) in the red soil. Nitrate addition had a negative effect on AOA abundance in the red soil. Total N2O emissions were positively correlated to AOB abundance, but not to other functional genes in the two soils. Changed soil moisture significantly affected AOA rather than AOB community composition in both soils. The way and extent of N fertilizers impacted on nitrifier and denitrifier community composition varied with N form and soil type. These results indicate that N2O emissions and the succession of nitrifying and denitrifying communities are selectively affected by soil moisture and N fertilizer form in the two contrasting types of soil. 相似文献

Purpose
Global nitrogen deposition has profound impact on the terrestrial ecosystem including the semiarid temperate grassland, causing vegetation community shifts and soil acidification. Little is known regarding the effect of nitrogen (N) deposition on the belowground microbial communities. This study aimed to examine the response of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and archaea (AOA) to added N in semiarid temperate grassland. 相似文献10.
