添加氮素抑制剂是提高水稻氮肥利用率的有效途径之一。采用大田试验,探讨了氮素抑制剂(脲酶抑制剂N-丁基硫代磷酰三胺(NBPT)、硝化抑制剂3,4-二甲基吡唑磷酸盐(DMPP)及其组合)对沿淮平原水稻产量、氮肥利用率及稻田氮素的影响,旨在为优化沿淮稻田生态系统氮素养分管理,减少氮素损失提供科学依据。以"常糯1号"为供试材料,于2018年6—10月在安徽省怀远县(沿淮平原典型水稻种植区)进行试验。试验设5个处理:不施氮肥(CK);尿素(U);尿素+硝化抑制剂(U+DMPP);尿素+脲酶抑制剂(U+NBPT);尿素+硝化抑制剂+脲酶抑制剂(U+NBPT+DMPP)。结果表明:尿素配施NBPT或者DMPP均有利于提高水稻产量、植株吸氮量和氮素利用效率,NBPT效果优于DMPP,NBPT和DMPP联合施用表现出协同增效作用。尿素配施抑制剂的3个处理U+NBPT、U+DMPP和U+NBPT+DMPP较单独施用尿素U处理的产量分别增加6.8%,4.3%,8.6%,植物吸氮量分别增加9.6%,6.5%,12.2%,与U处理之间差异达显著水平(P0.05)。尿素单独配施NBPT或者NBPT+DMPP组合均显著提高了氮肥吸收利用率(NRE)、氮肥农学利用率(NAE)、氮素吸收效率(NUP)和氮肥偏生产力(NPFP)(P0.05),而尿素单独配施DMPP也有不同程度的提高,但差异未达到显著水平(P0.05)。另外,尿素单独配施DMPP或者DMPP+NBPT组合均显著提高了水稻成熟期土壤铵态氮(NH_4~+-N)和微生物量氮(SMBN)的含量,降低了硝态氮(NO_3~--N)的含量,提高了土壤中铵/硝比,而尿素单独配施NBPT对水稻成熟期土壤NH_4~+-N、NO_3~--N和SMBN无显著影响。总体认为,在沿淮平原稻作种植体系中,尿素配施NBPT或者DMPP可以有效地增加水稻产量,促进水稻对氮素的吸收利用,提高氮素利用效率,NBPT和DMPP联合施用效果最理想。  相似文献

Microbial immobilization/mineralization and mineral fixation/release of ammonium are important for N retention and supply. However, the rates of such processes vary among different fertility soils and fertilization management practices. Three long-term different fertilized soils were used to simulate a range in soil fertility level and incubated with different N amendments for 144 days. The dynamics of 15N derived from ammonium sulfate (AS) or straw in different soil N pools and the ammonium sulfate-N or straw-N retention and supply were studied. In the absence of straw, the amount of ammonium sulfate-N present as fixed ammonium was 1.1–3.5-fold higher than that present as soil microbial biomass N (SMBN), although ammonium sulfate-derived SMBN and its mineralization increased by increasing soil fertility level. Straw addition significantly (P < 0.05) enhanced the relative importance of the SMBN pool on ammonium sulfate-N retention and supply compared with the fixed ammonium-N pool, and the former exceeded the latter in higher fertility soils. Regardless of soil fertility levels, straw addition significantly blocked the release of ammonium sulfate-N from the fixed ammonium-N pool. The SMBN pool was more important in straw-N retention and supply than the fixed ammonium-N pool, confirming that straw-N cycling depended more on biotic processes. The percentage of mineralized ammonium sulfate-N or straw-N from SMBN was higher than that released from fixed ammonium, indicating the higher availability of SMBN. Generally, the mineral fixation/release of ammonium was the main process for mineral fertilizer N retention and supply in the low fertility soil with or without straw addition, whereas microbial immobilization/mineralization became the main process in the high fertility soil with straw addition. Our results gave insights on the ammonium sulfate-N or straw-N retention and supply in different fertility soils, providing suggestions for optimizing straw management and synchronizing N supply with crop demand.  相似文献

NBPT与DMPP不同剂量组合对尿素氮转化的影响   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
采用室内模拟试验的方法,探讨了脲酶抑制剂N-丁基硫代磷酰三胺(NBPT)和硝化抑制剂3,4-二甲基吡唑磷酸盐(DMPP)的不同浓度组合对尿素氮转化的影响。结果表明,NBPT与DMPP不同浓度组合均不同程度的延缓了尿素的水解,使尿素N水解产物更加以NH4+-N形态保持在土壤中;延缓了硝化作用进程并减少了硝酸盐在土壤累积,在此基础上增加了土壤有效态N含量。综合不同浓度组合对尿素水解的抑制、土壤NH4+-N和NO3--N含量变化、硝化作用抑制效果、土壤有效态N水平等指标并结合成本考虑,NBPT和DMPP分别为0.1%和0.5%施氮量时为最适宜的组合。  相似文献

双季稻田添加脲酶抑制剂NBPT氮肥的最高减量潜力研究   总被引:10,自引:3,他引:7  
【目的】添加脲酶抑制剂(Urease inhibitor, UI)是提高肥料利用率的有效途径,在尿素(Urea,U)中添加1%的脲酶抑制剂NBPT(N-丁基硫代磷酰三胺)是目前研究使用证明效果最可靠的添加比例。针对当前稻田氮肥施用水平过高的问题,本文采用田间小区试验研究了目前脲酶抑制剂添加比例下稻田氮肥的减施潜力以及脲酶抑制剂的节肥增效机理。【方法】本试验在我国长江中下游的双季稻田进行,脲酶抑制剂用量NBPT为尿素用量的1%。尿素用量设五个水平为N 90、 112.5、 135、 157.5 和180 kg/hm2,分别依次记为U1、 U2、 U3、 U4和U5, 7个处理为CK(不施氮肥)、 U1+UI、 U2+UI、 U3+UI、 U4+UI、 U5+UI、 U5(U5为传统施氮量, N 180 kg/hm2为农民习惯施氮量),三次重复。U1~U5处理施氮量分别是在农民习惯施氮量的基础上降低50%、 37.5%、 25%、 12.5%、 0%。通过取样分析水稻分蘖期和孕穗期各处理对土壤脲酶活性、 硝酸还原酶活性、 土壤铵态氮含量、 硝态氮含量以及微生物量碳、 氮的含量,研究NBPT对水稻两个主要生育期土壤氮素供应的影响,比较各处理的产量以及氮肥利用率来得出氮肥的减施潜力,在此基础上通过逐步回归分析研究以上各指标对产量的影响,探明脲酶抑制剂(NBPT)在双季稻田的增效机理。【结果】 1) 在双季稻田,添加NBPT后,施氮量为N 135 kg/hm2的籽粒产量达到最高。与传统施氮(单施尿素N 180 kg/hm2)处理相比,早、 晚稻可分别增产8.54%和12.87%,氮肥当季利用率分别提高6.78%和9.46%,可节约氮肥25%; 2)与传统施氮相比,添加NBPT显著降低了水稻分蘖期的土壤脲酶活性和铵态氮含量,显著提高了孕穗期的铵态氮含量,而对此时期的脲酶活性无显著影响,NBPT对两个时期的硝酸还原酶活性、 硝态氮含量及微生物量碳、 氮含量均无明显影响,可见基施的NBPT主要是降低尿素水解速率方面效果显著,并且NBPT具有时效性,其主要是在水稻孕穗期之前起作用,在生态上较为安全; 3) 从各项土壤指标与水稻产量相关性的逐步回归分析结果来看,水稻分蘖期与孕穗期稻田土壤中铵态氮含量对水稻产量影响显著,而且孕穗期的影响大于分蘖期,其余指标则对产量无明显影响。【结论】由于脲酶抑制剂NBPT减缓了分蘖期尿素的水解作用,提高了孕穗期土壤中的铵态氮含量,为水稻后期生长提供充足的氮肥,在双季稻减肥方面具有显著的效果。在本试验土壤条件下,尿素中添加1% 的NBPT,可在提高产量的同时,将传统施氮肥量减少25%,是适于稻田应用的脲酶抑制剂。  相似文献

 The objectives of this work were to evaluate the inhibitory action on nitrification of 3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP) added to ammonium sulphate nitrate [(NH4)2SO4 plus NH4NO3; ASN] in a Citrus-cultivated soil, and to study its effect on N uptake. In a greenhouse experiment, 2 g N as ASN either with or without 0.015 g DMPP (1% DMPP relative to NH4 +-N) was applied 6 times at 20-day intervals to plants grown in 14-l pots filled with soil. Addition of DMPP to ASN resulted in higher levels of NH4 +-N and lower levels of NO3 -N in the soil during the whole experimental period. The NO3 -N concentration in drainage water was lower in the ASN plus DMPP (ASN+DMPP)-treated pots. Also, DMPP supplementation resulted in greater uptake of the fertilizer-N by citrus plants. In another experiment, 100 g N as ASN, either with or without 0.75 g DMPP (1% DMPP relative to NH4 +-N) was applied to 6-year-old citrus plants grown individually outdoors in containers. Concentrations of NH4 +-N and NO3 -N at different soil depths and N distribution in the soil profile after consecutive flood irrigations were monitored. In the ASN-amended soil, nitrification was faster, whereas the addition of the inhibitor led to the maintenance of relatively high levels of NH4 +-N and NO3 -N in soil for longer than when ASN was added alone. At the end of the experiment (120 days) 68.5% and 53.1% of the applied N was leached below 0.60 m in the ASN and ASN+DMPP treatments, respectively. Also, leaf N levels were higher in plants fertilized with ASN+DMPP. Collectively, these results indicate that the DMPP nitrification inhibitor improved N fertilizer efficiency and reduced NO3 leaching losses by retaining the applied N in the ammoniacal form.

ABSTRACT

This study sought to identify whether piggery effluent-derived nitrogen sources can be formulated with urea and nitrification inhibitors to better synchronize nitrogen (N) supply with crop demand than conventional urea fertilizer alone. A 288 pot pasture growth and leaching growth accelerator trial (5 pasture cuts) was completed with a factorial treatment structure of three N sources (2.63 g N [kg soil]?1 applied as 100% urea-N, 8% struvite-N + 92% urea-N, and 8% piggery pond sludge-N + 92% urea-N), five rates of three nitrification inhibitors (including 3,4-Dimethylpyrazole phosphate, DMPP; limonene+ethanol; and dicyandiamide, DCD), and matrix encapsulated forms of these inhibitors. Applying a combination of piggery sludge with urea increased N uptake during the first 4 weeks of plant growth (by 65%), though total N uptake throughout the trial (22 weeks) did not differ across the N-sources. The microbial community of the soil to which the sludge was added was significantly different from the un-amended soil at the conclusion of the trial. All inhibitor formulations significantly decreased leaching losses of mineral-N relative to the control (by 14 to 61%). The use of DMPP decreased initial nutrient uptake, deferring uptake until later in the experiment. Inhibitor addition resulted in microbial community effects that persisted throughout the trial. The study demonstrated that a piggery-derived N-source and a nitrification inhibitor can be used to manipulate plant N uptake to occur later or earlier in a growing period with equal cumulative uptake, achieving an 11% increase in residual N store, and decreased N leaching losses.  相似文献

The effect of the combined application of urease and nitrification inhibitors on ammonia volatilization and the abundance of nitrifier and denitrifier communities is largely unknown. Here, in a mesocosm experiment, ammonia volatilization was monitored in an agricultural soil treated with urea and either or both of the urease inhibitor N‐(n‐butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT) and the nitrification inhibitor 3,4‐dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP), with 50% and 80% water‐filled pore space (WFPS). The effect of the treatments on the abundance of bacteria and archaea was estimated by quantitative PCR (qPCR) amplification of their respective 16S rRNA gene, that of nitrifiers using amoA genes, and that of denitrifiers by qPCR of the norB and nosZI denitrification genes. After application of urea, N losses due to NH3 volatilization accounted for 23.0% and 9.2% at 50% and 80% WFPS, respectively. NBPT reduced NH3 volatilization to 2.0% and 2.4%, whereas DMPP increased N losses by up to 36.8% and 26.0% at 50% and 80% WFPS, respectively. The combined application of NBPT and DMPP also increased NH3 emissions, albeit to a lesser extent than DMPP alone. As compared with unfertilized control soil, both at 50% and 80% WFPS, NBPT strongly affected the abundance of bacteria and archaea, but not that of nitrifiers, and decreased that of denitrifiers at 80% WFPS. Regardless of moisture conditions, treatment with DMPP increased the abundance of denitrifiers. DMPP, both in single and in combined application with NBPT, increased the abundance of nitrification and denitrification genes.  相似文献

A soil column method was used to compare the effect of drip fertigation (the application of fertilizer through drip irrigation systems, DFI) on the leaching loss and transformation of urea-N in soil with that of surface fertilization combined with flood irrigation (SFI), and to study the leaching loss and transformation of three kinds of nitrogen fertilizers (nitrate fertilizer, ammonium fertilizer, and urea fertilizer) in two contrasting soils after the fertigation. In comparison to SFI, DFI decreased leaching loss of urea-N from the soil and increased the mineral N (NH4+-N + NO3--N) in the soil. The N leached from a clay loam soil ranged from 5.7% to 9.6% of the total N added as fertilizer, whereas for a sandy loam soil they ranged between 16.2% and 30.4%. Leaching losses of mineral N were higher when nitrate fertilizer was used compared to urea or ammonium fertilizer. Compared to the control (without urea addition), on the first day when soils were fertigated with urea, there were increases in NH4+-N in the soils. This confirmed the rapid hydrolysis of urea in soil during fertigation. NH4+-N in soils reached a peak about 5 days after fertigation, and due to nitrification it began to decrease at day 10. After applying NH4+-N fertilizer and urea and during the incubation period, the mineral nitrogen in the soil decreased. This may be related to the occurrence of NH4+-N fixation or volatilization in the soil during the fertigation process.  相似文献

中国南方黄泥田土壤中养分淋失严重,尤其是氮(N)和钾(K),不仅造成资源浪费和潜在环境威胁,还严重制约作物的可持续生产。采用室内土柱模拟培养,研究尿素(U)和尿素硝铵(UAN)中单独添加脲酶抑制剂N-丁基硫代磷酰三胺(NBPT)和硝化抑制剂2-氯-6-(三氯甲基)吡啶(CP),及两者配合施用对黄泥田土壤中K素淋溶特征的影响,探讨提高黄泥田供钾能力的施肥技术。不同氮肥种类淋溶液中,K~+平均浓度大小表现为UAN处理(103.0 mg·kg~(-1))高于U处理(93.9 mg·kg~(-1)),且抑制剂处理间存在明显差异。培养结束时(第72 d),UAN处理K~+淋失量较U处理高6.7%。U各处理淋溶液中K~+累积量大小表现为UU+NBPTU+NBPT+CPU+CPCK,其中U+NBPT、U+CP和U+NBPT+CP处理较U处理分别降低8.7%、20.2%和14.9%;UAN各处理淋溶液中K~+累积量表现为UANUAN+NBPTUAN+NBPT+CPUAN+CPCK,其中UAN+NBPT、UAN+CP和UAN+NBPT+CP处理较UAN处理分别降低6.0%、13.8%和9.2%。不同施肥处理K~+淋溶率表现为UANUAN+NBPTUUAN+NBPT+CPUAN+CPU+NBPTU+NBPT+CPU+CP。培养中期(第36 d),U和UAN处理肥际微域中土壤速效钾含量显著降低,而添加CP处理有效维持土壤中较高的速效钾含量。与单施NBPT相比,配施CP可以减少黄泥田土壤中NO_3~-淋溶,增加土壤晶格对K~+的固定,减轻K~+淋溶风险,有效时间超过72 d。对各处理淋溶液中K~+累积量(y)随NO_3~-累积量(x)的变化进行拟合,其中以线性方程(y=ax+b)和Elovich方程(y=alnx+b)的拟合度最高,且抑制剂处理间a、b值均存在明显差异。总之,在黄泥田土壤中单施CP,或与NBPT配施可以有效增加K~+吸附,降低土壤中K~+淋溶损失,减轻养分淋失风险,提高肥料利用率。  相似文献

The turnover of organic matter determines the availability of plant nutrients in unfertilized soils, and this applies particularly to the alkaline saline soil of the former Lake Texcoco in Mexico. We investigated the effects of alkalinity and salinity on dynamics of organic material and inorganic N added to the soil. Glucose labelled with 14C was added to soil of the former Lake Texcoco drained for different lengths of time, and dynamics of 14C, C and N were investigated with the Detran model. Soil was sampled from an undrained plot and from three drained for 1, 5 and 8 years, amended with 1000 mg 14C‐labelled glucose kg?1 and 200 mg NH4+‐N kg?1, and incubated aerobically. Production of 14CO2 and CO2, dynamics of NH4+, NO2 and NO3, and microbial biomass 14C, C and N were monitored and simulated with the Detran model. A third stable microbial biomass fraction had to be introduced in the model to simulate the dynamics of glucose, because > 90 mg 14C kg?1 soil persisted in the soil microbial biomass after 97 days. The observed priming effect was mostly due to an increased decay of soil organic matter, but an increased turnover of the microbial biomass C contributed somewhat to the phenomenon. The dynamics of NH4+ and NO3 in the NH4+‐amended soil could not be simulated unless an immobilization of NH4+ into the microbial biomass occurred in the first day of the incubation without an immediate incorporation of it into microbial organic material. The dynamics of C and a priming effect could be simulated satisfactorily, but the model had to be adjusted to simulate the dynamics of N when NH4+ was added to alkaline saline soils.  相似文献

Field experiments were conducted to determine the effect of nitrogen (N) fertilizer forms and doses on wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) on three soils differing in their ammonium (NH4) fixation capacity [high = 161 mg fixed NH4-N kg?1 soil, medium = 31.5 mg fixed NH4-N kg?1 soil and no = nearly no fixed NH4-N kg?1 soil]. On high NH4+ fixing soil, 80 kg N ha?1 Urea+ ammonium nitrate [NH4NO3] or 240 kg N ha?1 ammonium sulfate [(NH4)2SO4]+(NH4)2SO4, was required to obtain the maximum yield. Urea + NH4NO3 generally showed the highest significance in respect to the agronomic efficiency of N fertilizers. In the non NH4+ fixing soil, 80 kg N ha?1 urea+NH4NO3 was enough to obtain high grain yield. The agronomic efficiency of N fertilizers was generally higher in the non NH4+ fixing soil than in the others. Grain protein was highly affected by NH4+ fixation capacities and N doses. Harvest index was affected by the NH4+ fixation capacity at the 1% significance level.  相似文献

Displacement of NH4+ fixed in clay minerals by fertilizer 15NH4+ is seen as one mechanism of apparent added nitrogen interactions (ANI), which may cause errors in 15N tracer studies. Pot and incubation experiments were carried out for a study of displacement of fixed NH4+ by 15N‐labeled fertilizer (ammonium sulfate and urea). A typical ANI was observed when 15N‐labeled urea was applied to wheat grown on soils with different N reserves that resulted from their long‐term fertilization history: Plants took up more soil N when receiving fertilizer. Furthermore, an increased uptake of 15N‐labeled fertilizer, induced by increasing unlabeled soil nitrogen supply, was found. This ANI‐like effect was in the same order of magnitude as the observed ANI. All causes of apparent or real ANI can be excluded as explanation for this effect. Plant N uptake‐related processes beyond current concepts of ANI may be responsible. NH4+ fixation of fertilizer 15NH4+ in sterilized or non‐sterile, moist soil was immediate and strongly dependent on the rate of fertilizer added. But for the tested range of 20 to 160 mg 15NH4+‐N kg–1, the NH4+ fixation rate was low, accounting for only up to 1.3 % of fertilizer N added. For sterilized soil, no re‐mobilization of fixed 15NH4+ was observed, while in non‐sterile, biologically active soil, 50 % of the initially fixed 15NH4+ was released up to day 35. Re‐mobilization of 15NH4+ from the pool of fixed NH4+ started after complete nitrification of all extractable NH4+. Our results indicate that in most cases, experimental error from apparent ANI caused by displacement of fixed NH4+ in clay is unlikely. In addition to the low percentage of only 1.3 % of applied 15N, present in the pool of fixed NH4+ after 35 days, there were no indications for a real exchange (displacement) of fixed NH4+ by 15N.  相似文献

Zeolitites (ZTs) are rocks containing more than 50% of zeolite minerals and are known to be a suitable material for agricultural purposes by improving soil physicochemical properties and nitrogen (N) use efficiency. However, little is known about their effects on soil microbial biomass. This study aimed to evaluate short-term effects of different chabazite-rich ZT (CHAZT) amendments on soil microbial biomass and activity. A silty-clay agricultural soil was amended in three different ways, including the addition of natural (5% and 15%) and NH_4~+-enriched (10%) CHAZT. Soil dissolved organic carbon (C), total dissolved N, NH_4~+, NO_3~-, NO_2~-, microbial biomass C and N, and ergosterol were measured periodically over 16 d in a laboratory incubation. To verify the microbial immobilization of the N derived from NH_4~+-enriched CHAZT, a high15N source was used for enriching the mineral to measure the microbial biomass δ15N signature. An increase in the ergosterol content was observed in the soil amended with 5% natural CHAZT. However, no similar result was observed in the soil amended with 15% natural CHAZT, suggesting that the fungal biomass was favored at a lower CHAZT application rate. In the soil amended with NH+ 4-enriched CHAZT, microbial biomass N was related to NO_3~-production over time and inversely related to NH_4~+, suggesting high nitrification process. Isotopic measurements on microbial biomass confirmed immediate assimilation of N derived from NH_4~+-enriched CHAZT. These results suggested that the NH_4~+-enriched CHAZT used in this study supplied an immediately available N pool to the microbial biomass.  相似文献

采用二因素随机区组设计,研究生化抑制剂组合(N-丁基硫代磷酰三胺(NBPT)、N-丙基硫代磷酰三胺(NPPT)和2-氯-6-(三氯甲基)吡啶(CP))与施肥模式(一次性施肥和分次施肥)互作对黄泥田稻季田面水和渗漏液氮(N)素浓度动态变化特征的影响。结果表明,黄泥田稻季田面水和渗漏液中N素形态分别以NH4+-N和NO–3-N为主。基肥施用后,稻田田面水中NH4+-N和总氮(TN)浓度于第1天达到峰值后降低,第6天分别降为峰值的57.9%~69.1%、41.9%~59.0%(一次性施肥)和29.9%~60.7%、60.9%~69.7%(分次施肥);稻田渗漏液中NO–3-N和TN浓度于第1~3天达到峰值后降低,第6天分别降为峰值的51.4%~56.5%、56.6%~61.6%(一次性施肥)和45.3%~57.5%、51.1%~59.6%(分次施肥)。不同施肥模式下,硝化抑制剂CP会提高田面水NH4+-N浓度,而脲酶抑制剂NBPT/NPPT或配施CP有效抑制脲酶活性,降低田面水NH4+-N峰值;CP显著降低渗漏液NO–3-N浓度,且CP或配施NBPT/NPPT有效抑制硝化作用,降低渗漏液NO–3-N峰值。新型脲酶抑制剂NPPT单独施用及与CP配施的稻田田面水和渗漏液N素浓度动态变化特征与NBPT相似。总之,生化抑制剂与适宜的氮肥运筹相结合更能有效延缓黄泥田中尿素水解,抑制硝化作用,减少N素径流和渗漏损失。  相似文献

利用15N在盆栽条件下研究了铵的矿物固定作用对肥料氮在三种土壤中转化的影响.结果表明,红壤性水稻土不固定肥料铵,但在白土和夹沙土中,56-77%的肥料氮被土壤矿物所固定,这些“新固定”的固定态铵的有效性很高,其中90%以上在30-50天内即被水稻所吸收,或者为微生物所利用转变为生物固定态氮.生物固定态氮对当季作物的有效性远较“新固定”的固定态铵的低.田间微区试验的结果还表明,甚至第二、三季作物吸收的残留肥料氮中,20-86%的氮也系来自固定态铵.作者认为,对具有较强固铵能力的土壤来说,只有了解铵的矿物固定作用,才能正确了解肥料氮的其它转化过程.  相似文献

Agricultural systems that receive high or low organic matter (OM) inputs would be expected to differ in soil nitrogen (N) transformation rates and fates of ammonium (NH4+) and nitrate (NO3). To compare NH4+ availability, competition between nitrifiers and heterotrophic microorganisms for NH4+, and microbial NO3 assimilation in an organic vs. a conventional irrigated cropping system in the California Central Valley, chemical and biological soil assays, 15N isotope pool dilution and 15N tracer techniques were used. Potentially mineralizable N (PMN) and hot minus cold KCl-extracted NH4+ as indicators of soil N supplying capacity were measured five times during the tomato growing season. At mid-season, rates of gross ammonification and gross nitrification after rewetting dry soil were measured in microcosms. Microbial immobilization of NO3 and NH4+ was estimated based on the uptake of 15N and gross consumption rates. Gross ammonification, PMN, and hot minus cold KCl-extracted NH4+ were approximately twice as high in the organically than the conventionally managed soil. Net estimated microbial NO3 assimilation rates were between 32 and 35% of gross nitrification rates in the conventional and between 37 and 46% in the organic system. In both soils, microbes assimilated more NO3 than NH4+. Heterotrophic microbes assimilated less NH4+ than NO3 probably because NH4+ concentrations were low and competition by nitrifiers was apparently strong. The high OM input organic system released NH4+ in a gradual manner and, compared to the low OM input conventional system, supported a more active microbial biomass with greater N demand that was met mainly by NO3 immobilization.  相似文献

Terrestrial ecosystems are predicted to experience an increasing level of atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition, which may cause significant shifts in plant community composition and concomitantly stimulate soil acidification. However, little is known concerning the effects of N deposition on belowground microbial communities in alpine grassland ecosystems such as on the Tibetan Plateau. This study examined the responses of soil N-transforming microbes (measured after DNA extraction and quantitative PCR), soil microbial biomass C (SMBC) and N (SMBN), and soil enzyme activities to different forms (NH4 +-N, NO3 ?-N, and NH4NO3-N) and rates (1.5 and 7.5 g N m?2 year?1, denoted as low and high N, respectively) of N fertilization (addition) in two successive plant growing seasons. The N rate, not N form, influenced the abundance of ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA). High N addition significantly increased ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) abundance which differed across different N form treatments. Nitrogen addition had no significant impact on the abundance of soil denitrifiers. The SMBC and SMBN were significantly decreased by high N additions, but no difference was found among different N forms. Despite higher urease activities being detected in the late plant growing season, the activities of invertase and alkaline phosphomonoesterase stayed unchanged irrespective of the different N amendments and plant growing season. Significant positive correlations were found between potential nitrification rates and AOB abundances. These results highlight that AOB seemed to respond more sensitively to different N fertilization and might have prominent roles in soil N cycling processes in this Tibetan Plateau alpine meadow than AOA.  相似文献

Pot experiments were conducted on three soils differing in their ammonium (NH4 +) fixation capacity [high = 161 mg NH4-nitrogen (N) kg?1 soil; medium = 31.5 mg NH4-N kg?1 soil; and no = no NH4-N was additionally fixed], and the effect of N fertilizer forms and doses on wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was investigated. Grain yields responded to almost all forms of N fertilizer with 80, 160, and 240 kg N ha?1 in the high, medium, and no NH4 + fixing soil process, respectively. Agronomic efficiency of applied N fertilizers was significantly greater in the no NH4 + fixing soil. Thousand grain weights (TGW) of wheat grown on the high and medium NH4 + fixing soil decreased with increasing N. Grain protein increased with increasing NH4 + fixation capacity. Nitrogen doses and the forms of N fertilizers affected grain protein at a significance level. The combination of urea + ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) was most effective in increasing grain protein content.  相似文献

Laboratory incubation experiments were conducted to study the influence of increasing concentrations of N-(n-butyl)phosphorothioic triamide (NBPT) on NH3 volatilization and rate of urea hydrolysis and evolution of mineral N in Ozzano, Rimini and Carpi soils with different physicochemical characteristics. Low concentrations of NBPT reduced NH3 losses due to volatilization after urea fertilization and the effectiveness of the inhibitor was related to the soil characteristics (e.g. high concentrations of organic C and sand). After 15 days of incubation, no significant reductions of losses were found for any of the NBPT concentrations employed in Rimini soil. The application of NBPT led to a considerable reduction of the formation of nitrite. This process was completely annulled with the highest dose of NBPT (0.5% w/wurea) in the Carpi soil after 15 days. In Rimini soil, however, the use of NBPT was less effective in influencing nitrite formation. The use of NBPT favoured accumulation of nitrate proportional to the NBPT concentration employed while it had no influence on the NH inf4 sup+ fixation by 2:1 layer silicates. The data obtained support previous evidence that NBPT is effective in reducing the problems encountered in using urea as fertilizer. However, environmental conditions and soil physicochemical characteristics may have an important influence on the effectiveness of NBPT.  相似文献

A large proportion of the nitrogen (N) in soil is in the form of proteinaceous material. Its breakdown requires the activity of extracellular proteases and other decomposing enzymes. The goal of our study was to better understand how carbon (C) and N availability affect soil protease activity. Several aerobic incubations were carried out with ammonium (NH4+) and proteins as N sources and cellulose as the main C source. A strong increase in protease activity was observed when proteins were added, the increase depending on the amount of protein added and its solubility. Protease synthesis was clearly substrate induced, as NH4+ had no effect. During this substrate induced phase, the addition of glucose but not NH4+ resulted in protease repression, indicating that the level of protease synthesis was determined by the need for C rather than N. After 1 month of incubation, protease activity remained relatively constant over time and was closely related to microbial biomass N. Different concentrations of mineral N in soil solution had no direct effect on protease activity. However, during this stationary phase, protease activity could be repressed by glucose and NH4+ in a treatment with low mineral N content while in treatments with a higher N availability no repression was observed. We hypothesize that the need for N determined protease activity in the treatment with limited N availability. The addition of NH4+ allowed for reallocation of C and N away from protease synthesis, leading to the observed decrease in protease activity. The repression by glucose may be attributed to shifts in the pathway of microbial NH4+ assimilation. The results emphasize the close links between the microbially mediated cycles of organic C and N.  相似文献
