Recent investigations have shown that phosphate (P) mobilization by root exudates is an important feature of genotypes to acquire P even in soils of low‐P availability. We, therefore, investigated P mobilization processes in the rhizosphere of red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) and black mustard (Brassica nigra L.) on a humic podzol. As measured by the Kuchenbuch‐Jungk method (Kuchenbuch and Jungk, 1982), both species accumulated similar quantities of citrate (12 μmol/g soil) in the rhizosphere in about 1 mm distance from the soil‐root interface. Despite of similar concentrations of P‐mobilizing citrate in the rhizosphere of both species, red clover took up nearly the two‐fold of P compared to black mustard. Differences in rhizosphere pH were determined between both species. Black mustard did not acidify the rhizosphere, whereas red clover decreased the pH in the rhizosphere from 5.8 to about 4.0 (in 0.01M CaCl2). The simultaneous acidification and excretion of citrate compared to citrate excretion alone had consequences for P mobilization processes in the rhizosphere. Phosphate mobilization from the soil solid phase was higher at higher pH. Thus, the citrate‐induced P desorption was not the limiting step in P acquisition by red clover and black mustard. Calculations of P distribution in the soil solution between free ortho‐P and humic‐associated P showed that at higher pH most of the P was associated with dissolved humic substances, whereas at pH < 5, most of the P was present as free ortho‐P. These P species can readily be taken up by the roots whereas humic‐associated P must probably be desorbed from the humic surface before uptake. Phosphate species calculations, therefore, explained the higher P uptake of red clover compared to black mustard. Aluminum species distribution calculations in the soil solution further show that even at pH < 5.0 in the soil solution, citrate strongly complex Al and thereby reduce the activity of monomeric Al species. The excretion of citrate can, therefore, counteract the root induced acidification of the rhizosphere with respect to Al toxicity.  相似文献

Abstract

Recent studies have indicated that A1 concentrations in excess of 1000 μg/g have occurred in grass species susceptible to Al toxicity, although other studies have suggested that high Al concentrations were the result of soil contamination. Our objectives were to determine the effect of Al source, Al level, nutrient solution pH, and tissue age on elemental concentrations in ryegrass.

An experiment was conducted in which ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.) cv ‘Gulf grown in nutrient solution at pH 5 and 6 received 0 Al or 100 and 500 μg Al/ml as Al‐sulfate and as NaAl‐citrate. Plant shoots were harvested 35 and 42 days after planting. Where nutrient solution pH was adjusted daily to pH 5 or 6, highest forage Al concentrations averaged only 295 μg/g. Where pH was not adjusted, highest Al concentrations averaged over 2000 μg/g. Plants having Al concentrations above 500 μg/g showed visible signs of Al toxicity. Source and level of Al in the nutrient solution, initial nutrient solution pH, and age of tissue at harvest had little effect on other elemental concentrations in the ryegrass.  相似文献

The functional role of organic acid anions in soil has been intensively investigated, with special focus on (i) microbial respiration and soil carbon dynamics, (ii) nutrient solubilization or (iii) metal detoxification and reduction of plant metal uptake. Little is known about the interaction dynamics of organic acid anions with the soil matrix and the potential impact of adsorption and desorption processes on the functional significance of these effects. The aim of this study was to characterize experimentally the adsorption and desorption dynamics of organic acid anions in five agricultural soils differing in iron and aluminium oxide contents and using citrate as a model carboxylate. Results showed that both adsorption and desorption processes were fast in all soils, reaching a steady state within approximately 1 hour. However, for a given total soil citrate concentration (ct) the steady state was critically dependent on the starting conditions of the experiment, whether most of the citrate was initially present in solution (cl) or held on the solid phase (cs). Specifically, desorption‐led processes resulted in significantly smaller steady‐state solution concentrations than adsorption‐led processes, indicating that hysteresis occurred. As it is not possible to distinguish between different adsorption and desorption pools in soil experimentally, a new dynamic hysteresis model that relies only on measured soil solution concentrations was developed. The model satisfactorily explained experimental data and was able to predict dynamic adsorption and desorption behaviour. To demonstrate its use, we applied the model to two relevant situations involving exudation and microbial degradation. The study highlighted the complex nature of citrate adsorption and desorption dynamics in soil. We conclude that existing models need to incorporate both temporal and hysteresis components to describe realistically the role and fate of organic acids in soil processes.  相似文献

Abstract

Rapid, accurate identification of the lime required to attain a desired pH is essential for the coarse‐textured soils of the Atlantic coastal plain to avoid micronutrient deficiencies (Mn, Zn) in sensitive crops and to insure herbicide efficacy. The University of Delaware Soil Testing laboratory is one of only seven of the 25 states in the Northeastern and Southern regions that does not use a buffer solution to make lime requirement determinations. The present method bases lime recommendations on soil pH in water, combined with an estimate of buffering capacity obtained by hand texturing soils. This approach is time‐consuming and includes the potential for considerable operator variability in obtaining the textural estimate. A study was initiated to compare four buffer solutions (Adams‐Evans, Mehlich, SMP‐single buffer, SMP‐double buffer) with the current approach and the actual lime requirement as determined by incubation of 19 Delaware soils with six rates of CaCO3 for six months. Soil pH effects on Mn and Zn availability were determined by extraction of all samples from the incubation study with the Mehlich I (.05M HCl + .0125M H2SO4) soil testing solution. Results indicated that organic matter was the primary soil component responsible for pH buffering in Delaware soils, and that the Adams‐Evans or Mehlich buffers were the best predictors of actual lime requirement. The appropriate target pH range for the coarse‐textured soils of Delaware, based on Mn and Zn availability, was determined to be 5.5–6.0. Liming soils to pH values greater than 6.0 is, for most crops, unnecessary and will reduce Mn availability below critical levels for sensitive crops such as soybeans and small grains.  相似文献

Root elongation of corn (Zea mays cv. Hycorn 82) and mungbean (Vigna radiata cv. Berken) seedlings was measured in dilute complete nutrient solutions to which varying amounts of lanthanum (La) or cerium (Ce) had been added. The nutrient solutions were aged for 9 d prior to conducting the root elongation experiments and solution samples ultra‐filtered to 0.025 μm before chemical analyses for La or Ce, and phosphorus (P). Concentrations of La up to 10 μM and concentrations of Ce up to 8 μM remained in solution in the presence of 5 μM P at pH 4.5, but substantial losses of these elements and P occurred at pH 5.5. The relative root elongation of both plant species decreased with increasing concentrations of La or Ce in solution. Mungbean was much more sensitive than corn. Cerium was more toxic than La to mungbean, the concentrations associated with a 50% reduction in root elongation being 0.9 μM Ce and 3.1 μM La. Lanthanum was more toxic to corn than Ce, the concentrations corresponding to a 50% reduction in root elongation being 12.2 μM Ce and 4.8 μM La at pH 5.5, or 7.1 μM La at pH 4.5.  相似文献

Abstract

Many soil analysis labs routinely determine lime requirement of acidic soils using different buffer solutions for optimum plant growth. The Adams‐Evans lime determination solution was introduced more than 40 years ago and has been used by many soil analysis labs. Even though many buffer solutions have been developed since then, very little attention has been paid to address the toxic nature of chemicals involved in buffer solutions. The most commonly used buffer solutions, such as the Adams-Evans, Shoemaker‐McLean‐Pratt (SMP), Woodruff, and others, contain p‐nitrophenol, which is toxic to humans and the environment. Use of p‐nitrophenol requires prescribed containment and disposal procedures, that creates extra burden on soil analysis labs that provide their invaluable service at low cost. Replacing p‐nitrophenol with monobasic potassium phosphate (KH2PO4), which has similar buffering capacity but with no known toxicity, is beneficial to soil testing labs and the environment. The original Adams‐Evans buffer solution was compared with the modified Adams‐Evans buffer solution with soils of different pH, cation exchange capacity and lime requirement. The linear regression between the buffer pH values and lime recommendations made by Adams‐Evans and the modified Adams‐Evans solutions were highly significant. Thus, the modified Adams‐Evans buffer solution can be used without loss of established recommendation criteria as the original buffer solution.  相似文献

Organic acid concentration in the proteoid rhizosphere of White Lupin in different soil samples (Oxisol-Ap = Ox, Luvisol-Ap and Luvisol-C = LA and LC) was determined in order to study the influence of root-released carboxylates on the mobilization of phosphate, aluminum, and iron in the rhizosphere. In the LC, organic acids were accumulated as Casalts extractable with water. In the proteoid rhizosphere of this soil sample 55 μmol citrate and 8 μmol malate per g soil were found. In the Ox, no water extractable organic acids were present. However, determination of citrate in the solid phase of this soil by Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy gave concentrations of 88 and 68 μmol citrate per g soil without and with P application, respectively. Displaced soil solution from the proteoid root rhizosphere of the Ox and the LA increased in Fe and Al concentrations from <50 μmol/L (soil from reference pots without plants) to more than 600 μmol Fe+Al/L. The concentration of P was increased by a factor of 2 despite of P uptake by the proteoid roots. The mobilization of Al, Fe, and P is attributed to ligand exchange of phosphate against citrate and to the solubilization of Al and Fe as carboxylate complexes.  相似文献

An inexpensive and mechanically simple technique has been developed to maintain realistically low P concentrations in nutrient solutions using a solid‐phase buffer. Phosphate is adsorbed on alumina in a PVC column, and the resulting alumina‐F is desorbed against nutrient solution circulated through the column. Kinetics of P adsorption and desorption indicate that the solid‐phase‐P has rapidly and slowly desorbing components and that buffering capacity is limited by desorption from the solid phase. The technique has been used to maintain F concentrations as low as 0.4 minol m‐3 for 26 days in experiments with maize (Zea mays L.), and in solution cultures with prune (Prunus domestica L.) trees. Effects of P supply on P accumulation and P transport are discussed.  相似文献

The pH‐value is of utmost relevance for soil properties and functioning. Hence, a time‐resolved in‐situ measurement is mandatory but lacking. As an alternative, a two‐probe pH electrode with gel‐covered reference electrode was newly constructed and tested for a continuous, in‐situ pH recording in saturated and unsaturated soil. This was done using samples from a set of 14 soils with different composition and pH$ _{\rm CaCl_2} $ ranging from 3.5 to 7.5 in batch and repacked soil column experiments. In the latter, changes in pH and redox potential were monitored upon transport of citrate‐phosphate buffer and pig slurry through the soil columns. The pH measurements were largely stable even upon substantial shifts in soil moisture content down to air‐dry conditions. The results of the pH measurements agreed with standard methods using settled soil suspensions in electrolyte solutions and the conventional combination (single‐probe) pH electrode. Testing the suspension effect, it was found that measuring pH directly in the soil is recommended. The pH measured in‐situ was closest to pH values determined in 0.01 M CaCl2 suspensions according to DIN ISO 10390 (DIN, 2005 ). The transport of citrate buffer and pig slurry as pH active substances through soil induced strong effects on the pH and in part on the redox potential; the reversible effects lasted over days, which may affect the mobility and speciation of nutrients and pollutants as well as microbial processes.  相似文献

土壤酸性磷酸酶影响土壤有机磷矿化。选择不同的缓冲液种类和不同p H值测定土壤酸性磷酸酶活性,可影响数据的可比性。为明确缓冲液及p H值对不同土壤磷酸酶活性的影响程度,选取p H值4～8的土壤样本,测定了在醋酸盐缓冲液、柠檬酸盐缓冲液和MUB缓冲液3种不同培养条件下酸性磷酸酶活性变化。结果表明,采用MUB缓冲液条件可获得较稳定的土样区分序列,且与缓冲液的p H值的变化无关。在醋酸盐缓冲液和柠檬酸盐缓冲液条件下,不同p H值范围的不同土样之间土壤酸性磷酸酶活性变异系数变化剧烈,而采用MUB缓冲液获得的变异系数较其他缓冲液大,且趋势平稳。综合考虑,进行土壤酸性磷酸酶活性测定,可优先选用MUB缓冲溶液。  相似文献

Abstract

Accurate determination of orthophosphate (P) in soil solutions is a prerequisite for rigorously assessing soil P availability for plants as well as the potential risk of P transfer to water bodies. Although P is usually measured on extracts filtered at 0.45 μm, little is known on the potential interfences due to the presence of colloidal particles. This work was conducted to study the influence of colloidal particles on P concentration by measuring it both by the phosphoantimonylmolybdenum blue colorimetry and ion chromatography in soil water extracts filtered at 0.45, 0.2, or 0.025 μm. Results strongly suggest that direct measurements with colorimetry might lead to an overestimation of the P concentration due to the solubilization of P‐containing particles in the acid medium prevailing in the solution during colorimetric essay. In the present study, the largest overestimations were observed in soil extracts rich in iron (Fe) and aluminum (Al) that had been filtered at 0.45 μm, on the opposite this overestimation remained lower but constant for the three levels of filtration in the studied calcareous soil. Ion chromatography constantly underestimated P concentration especially when the solutions were rich in Al and Fe. This underestimation could not be related to the presence of dissolved polyvalent cations in the solution and, therefore, might be accounted for by the sorption of P at the surfaces of colloids. In order to limit these interferences, it is proposed to measure P concentration by colorimetry after a filtration of the solution through a 0.2‐ or 0.025‐um membrane, instead of a 0.45‐μm filter. In some cases for instance for soil solutions rich in calcium phosphate particles, it might be advisable to determine P concentration with ion chromatography.  相似文献

Species or genotypes differ in their zinc use efficiency (ZnUE) under low Zn availability in the soil. Organic acids (OAs) synthetized by plant carboxylate metabolism may play a role in Zn‐deficiency tolerance. The main objective of the present work was to assess the response of two species of great agronomic interest such as Lactuca sativa and Brassica oleracea to Zn deficiency focusing on OAs and carboxylate metabolism. For this, L. sativa and B. oleracea plants were grown in hydroponic culture with two different Zn‐application rates: 10 µM Zn as control and 0.1 µM Zn as deficiency treatment. ZnUE parameters, concentrations of OAs and enzymes of carboxylate metabolism were analyzed. L. sativa showed better Zn uptake efficiency (ZnUpE), while B. oleracea demonstrated better Zn utilization efficiency (ZnUtE). In L. sativa, citrate and oxaloacetate concentrations and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase and citrate synthase activities increased, while fumarase and malate dehydrogenase activities declined. In B. oleracea no significant response was found in concentrations of carboxylate metabolism or enzyme activity except for a decrease in fumarase activity. These results suggest that a possible factor that induces the tricarboxylic acid cycle could be the low ZnUtE rather than the low Zn concentration under Zn‐deficiency conditions. In L. sativa citrate, oxaloacetate, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase, and citrate synthase may play a key role to face Zn deficiency, while in B. oleracea the higher ZnUtE cannot be explained in terms of a rise in OAs synthesis.  相似文献

The effect of varying solution calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) concentrations in the absence or presence of 10 μM aluminum (Al) was investigated in several experiments using a low ionic strength (2.7 × 10‐3 M) solution culture technique. Aluminium‐tolerant and Al‐sensitive lines of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were grown. In the absence of Al, top yields decreased when solution Ca concentrations were <50 μM or plant Ca concentrations were <2.0 mg/g. Top and root yields decreased when solution Mg concentrations were <50 μM or plant Mg concentrations were <1.5 mg/g. There were no differences between the lines in solution or plant concentrations at which yield declined. Increasing solution Ca concentrations decreased plant Mg concentrations in the tops (competitive ion effect) but increased plant Mg concentrations in the roots of wheat. This suggests that Ca is competing with Mg when Mg is transported from the roots. Increasing solution Mg concentrations decreased plant Ca concentrations in the tops and the roots (competitive ion effect). In the roots, increasing solution Mg concentrations decreased plant Ca concentrations at a lower solution Ca concentration in the Al‐sensitive line than the Al‐tolerant line. In the presence of Al, increasing solution Ca and Mg concentrations increased yield (Ca and Mg ameliorating Al toxicity). Yield increased until the sum of the solution concentrations of the divalent cations (Ca+Mg) was 2,000 μM for the Al‐tolerant line or 4,000 μM for the Al‐sensitive line. The exception was that yield decreased when solution Mg concentrations were > 1,500 μM and the solution Ca concentration was 100 μM (Mg exacerbating Al toxicity). The ameliorative effects of solution Ca or Mg on Al tolerance were not related to plant Ca or Mg concentrations per se.  相似文献

A field study was undertaken to compare dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations in soil solutions obtained with three different sampling methods over a range of soil types. The sampling devices used were a tension‐free collector, a tension Prenart collector and a tension Rhizon collector. Samples were collected fortnightly for a year at seven sites in northern England, each collection being replicated three times. The soil solution DOC ranged from 1.3 g m?3 in an acid ranker to 34.7 g m?3 in a peat. The DOC concentrations obtained with the three methods correlated reasonably well (r2 = 0.6–0.8) but with an indication of bias, as the best fit line differed from the 1:1 line. The tension‐free collector gave generally higher DOC concentrations except at very low concentrations (in the acid ranker soil). The DOC concentrations measured with the tension‐free collectors were significantly (P < 0.05) higher than those obtained with Prenart and Rhizon collectors at four and six sites, out of seven, respectively. Subsequent laboratory tests on tension‐free collected samples showed no DOC loss on filtration through 0.1 and 0.22‐μm membranes, whereas a significant loss of DOC occurred when tension‐free collected samples were subsequently passed through Prenart and Rhizon collectors, indicating a probable sampling artefact with the tension devices. The difficulties of acquiring representative soil solution samples are discussed, together with the advantages and disadvantages of tension and tension‐free methods.  相似文献

In a previous experiment, plants were able to immobilize or solubilize Cadmium (Cd) in a sandy acid soil enriched with 40 μmol Cd kg–1, because Cd solution concentration was decreased by maize (Zea mays) and sunflower (Helianthus annuus), and increased by flax (Linum usitatissimum L. ssp. usitatissimum) and spinach (Spinacia oleracea). It is assumed that the equilibrium with Cd fractions in the soil solid phase and the chemical form of Cd in the soil solution were affected. In the present study, the effect of the four plant species mentioned above on Cd binding in soil was investigated by means of a fractionation of soil Cd with a sequential extraction of seven steps. The seven fractions of Cd are operationally defined by the extraction sequence that follows the order of increasing acidity with extractants of different complexing and redox properties. In the unplanted soil, Cd was predominantly present in the exchangeable Fraction I (F. I) and easily mobilizable Fraction II (F. II) (64%). Significant concentrations of Cd were found in F. III (occluded in Mn oxides; 22%) and F. IV (organically bound; 10%). Fractions V (occluded in poorly crystalline Fe oxides), F. VI (occluded in well crystallized Fe oxides), and F. VII (residual fraction) amounted to less than 5% of the total soil Cd concentration. The plants changed the binding of Cd in soil in a different manner. All plants decreased F. I, but F. II was increased by maize and spinach, decreased by flax or remained unaffected by sunflower. Fraction III was not affected by maize and flax, but decreased by sunflower and spinach, and F. IV was not affected by sunflower and spinach, but was increased by maize and flax. These changes of Cd fractions were not related to the changes the plants had caused in total Cd or Cd2+ concentration of the soil solution. These results show that plant species differ in how they affect Cd binding to the soil solid phase, but this effect is not related to how they affect Cd in soil solution. The mechanisms by which plants affect the relationship between the soil solid and liquid phase are still unclear.  相似文献

Micro–suction cups made of nylon membranes and polyacrylic tubes with planar geometry of the membrane were designed for repeated sampling of rhizosphere solution at defined distances from a root monolayer. Adsorption tests revealed that the materials used (nylon membrane, polyacrylic tube) have little influence on the concentration of heavy metals in the sample solution, whereas some organic acids are partly retained by the suction cup. A sampling protocol was developed for collecting extremely small solution volumes (i.e., droplets of 28.3±2.46 μl) for subsequent measurements of trace elements using ICP‐SFMS. A homogeneity test showed that soil‐solution concentrations of Ca, K, Mg, and Ni could be reproduced independent of the suction‐cup position in a rhizobox experiment without plants. In a similar experiment, the rhizobox was planted with the Ni hyperaccumulator Thlaspi goesingense. Compared to more distant soil layers, an increase of Ni and a concurrent decrease of Ca, K, and Mg at 1 mm distance from the root plane was found. These changes can be related to plant uptake and mobilization processes. Our results show that the novel micro–suction cups are a valuable tool for elucidating rhizosphere processes.  相似文献

A major challenge in sustainable crop management is to ensure adequate P supply for crops, while minimizing losses of P that could negatively impact water quality. The objective of the present study was to investigate the effects of long‐term applications of different levels of mineral fertilizers and farmyard manure on (1) the availability of P, (2) the relationship between soil C, N, and P, and (3) the distribution of inorganic and organic P in size fractions obtained by wet sieving. Soil samples were taken from the top 20 cm of a long‐term (29 y) fertilization trial on a sandy Cambisol near Darmstadt, SW Germany. Plant‐available P, determined with the CAL method, was little affected by fertilization treatment (p < 0.05) and was low to optimal. The concentration of inorganic and organic P extracted with a NaOH‐EDTA solution (PNaOH‐EDTA) averaged about 350 mg (kg dry soil)–1, with 42% being in the organic form (Po). Manure application tended to increase soil C, N, and Po concentrations by 8%, 9%, and 5.6%, respectively. Across all treatments, the C : N : Po ratio was 100 : 9.5 : 2 and was not significantly affected by the fertilization treatments. Aggregate formation was weak due to the low clay and organic‐matter content of the soil, and the fractions > 53 μm consisted predominantly of sand grains. The different fertilization treatments had little effect on the distribution of size fractions and their C, N, and P contents. In the fractions > 53 μm, PNaOH‐EDTA ranged between 200 and 300 mg kg–1, while it reached 1260 mg kg–1 in the fraction < 53 μm. Less than one third of PNaOH‐EDTA was present as Po in the fractions > 53 μm, while Po accounted for 70% of PNaOH‐EDTA in the smallest fraction (< 53 μm). Therefore, 16% and 28% of PNaOH‐EDTA and Po, respectively, were associated with the smallest fraction, even though this fraction accounted for < 5% of the soil mass. Therefore, runoff may cause higher P losses than the soil P content suggests in this sandy soil with a weak aggregate formation. Overall, the results indicate that manure and mineral fertilizer had similar effects on soil P fractions.  相似文献

Abstract

Earlirose rice (Oryza sativa L. ) and Hawkeye soybeans (Glycine max L.) were grown in solution culture with A12(SO4)3 in concentrations of 0, 10‐6, 10‐5, 10‐4, 10‐3 M. Only at 10‐4 (slightly) and at 10‐3 M were there yield depressions due to Al. The threshold concentration of Al for toxicity was about 20 μg/g in rice shoots and about 30 μg/g in soybean leaves. The solution level necessary for these concentrations was 8 μg Al/ml. Plant concentrations which caused severe toxicity were 70 μg Al/g plant with 81 μg Al/ml solution. Most Al remained in roots, but leaves contained more than did stems of soybeans. The high Al decreased Fe, Cu, and Mn concentrations in shoots of rice and decreased Fe, Cu, and Zn in roots of rice. The high Al resulted in decreased Fe and Zn in leaves of soybeans. No Fe deficiency symptoms were present due to the high Al.  相似文献

Abstract

Two methods of measuring phosphate (P) adsorption were assessed as a means of predicting soil and plant responses to P fertigation for four British Columbia (B.C.) orchard soils. In Method 1, soils at 0.1 bar moisture tension were incubated for 1, 7, 14, 28, 56, or 84 days with solutions of H3PO4 supplied as a single or eight weekly doses. In Method 2, soils were equilibrated with P solutions at 1:10 soil:solution ratio for one day. Langmuir adsorption maxima calculated from the latter data ranged from 99 to 372 mg/kg. Solution P concentrations after one day for single dose incubations and 1:10 soil:solution equilibrations were highly correlated. Solution P concentrations remained elevated for 12 weeks after both single and weekly doses in incubated soils. Four availability indices were derived from the adsorption studies:solution P after one day equilibration for both methods and the fraction of the P adsorbing surface covered by added P at either one or fifty‐six days.

Peach seedlings (Prunus persica L. Batsch) were grown for 12 weeks in the greenhouse in a randomised complete block experiment with five levels of P (0, 15.5, 31, 62, and 124 mg P/kg) supplied as H3PO4 on the same schedule as for the incubated soils. Top dry matter increased in response to the first level of added P for three soils but was not correlated with any of four P availability indices measured. Initial soil solution P concentration was a better indicator of response to P fertilizer than Kelowna‐extractable (0.25 M HCl + 0.015 M NH4F) P. Estimated critical values of soil solution P for the two adsorption methods were 0.85 μg/mL (Method 1) and 0.42 μg/mL (Method 2).  相似文献

Standard procedures to assess P availability in soils are based on batch experiments with various extractants. However, in most soils P nutrition is less limited by bulk stocks but by strong adsorption and transport limitation. The basic principle of root‐phosphate uptake is to strip phosphate locally from the solid phase by forming a radial depletion zone in the soil solution, optionally enhanced by release of mobilizing substances. Microdialysis (MD), a well‐established method in pharmacokinetics, is capable to mimic important characteristics of P root uptake. The sampling is by diffusional exchange through a semipermeable membrane covering the probes with their sub‐mm tubular structure. Additionally, the direct environment of the probe can be chemically modified by adding, e.g ., carboxylates to the perfusate. This study is the first approach to test the applicability of MD in assessing plant available phosphate in soils and to develop a framework for its appropriate use.We used MD in stirred solutions to quantify the effect of pumping rate, concomitant ions, and pH value on phosphate recovery. Furthermore, we measured phosphate yield of top‐soil material from a beech forest, a non‐fertilized grassland, and from a fertilized corn field. Three perfusates have been used based on a 1 mM KNO3 solution: pure (1), with 0.1 mM citric acid (2), and with 1 mM citric acid (3). Additionally, a radial diffusion model has been parametrized for the stirred solutions and the beech forest soil.Results from the tests in stirred solutions were in good agreement with reported observations obtained for other ionic species. This shows the principal suitability of the experimental setup for phosphate tests. We observed a significant dependency of phosphate uptake into the MD probes on dialysate pumping rate and on ionic strength of the outside solution. In the soils, we observed uptake rates of the probes between 1.5 × 10−15 and 6.7 × 10−14 mol s−1 cm−1 in case of no citrate addition. Surprisingly, median uptake rates were mostly independent of the bulk soil stocks, but the P‐fertilized soil revealed a strong tailing towards higher values. This indicates the occurrence of hot P spots in soils. Citrate addition increased P yields only in the higher concentration but not in the forest soil. The order of magnitude of MD uptake rates from the soil samples matched root‐length related uptake rates from other studies. The micro‐radial citrate release in MD reflects the processes controlling phosphate mobilization in the rhizosphere better than measurements based on “flooding” of soil samples with citric acid in batch experiments. Important challenges in MD with phosphate are small volumes of dialysate with extremely low concentrations and a high variability of results due to soil heterogeneity and between‐probe variability. We conclude that MD is a promising tool to complement existing P‐analytical procedures, especially when spatial aspects or the release of mobilizing substances are in focus.  相似文献
