In this work we studied the influence of Pb, Zn, and Tl on microbial biomass survival and activity during a laboratory incubation of soil. In comparison to uncontaminated soil, the microbial biomass C decreased sharply in soil contaminated with Zn and Tl, whereas the addition of Pb did not have any significant inhibitory effect on the level of microbial biomass C. Zn displayed the greatest biocidal effect, confirmed by the measurement of the death rate quotient (q D). The microbial activity, measured as CO2 evolution, increased significantly in contaminated soils, emphasizing the need of living organisms to expend more energy to survive. The greater demand for energy by microorganisms in order to cope with the toxicity of pollutants was also confirmed by measurement of the metabolic quotient (q CO2). In order to determine whether soil microorganisms affect the bioavailability of these metals through their mobilization and release, we studied the relationships between available Pb, Zn, and Tl, and microbial biomass C. The water-soluble fraction of Tl, available Tl, and Zn, and microbial biomass C were related significantly, but not Pb.  相似文献

The impact of alley cropping on post-lignite mine soils developing from quaternary deposits after 9 years of recultivation was evaluated on the basis of microbial indicators, organic C and total N contents, and the isotope characteristics of soil C. Soils were sampled at the 0 to 3, 3 to 10, and 10 to 30 cm depths under black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.), poplar (Populus spp.), the transition zone and in the middle of alley under rye (Secale cereale). There was no significant effect of vegetation on microbial properties presumably, due to the high variability, whereas organic C and total N contents at the 0- to 3-cm layer were significantly higher under black locust and poplar than in the transition zone and rye field. Organic C total N contents, and basal respiration, microbial biomass, and microbial quotient decreased with soil depth. Soil organic C and total N contents were more than doubled after 9 years of recultivation, with annual C and N accretion rate of 162 g C org m−2 year−1 and 6 g N t m−2 year−1. Microbial properties indicated that the soils are in early stages of development; the C isotope characteristics confirmed that the sequestered C was predominantly from C3 plants of the alley cropping.  相似文献

A plethora of research has been conducted on the use of marigolds (Tagetes spp.) for nematode suppression, yet limited cover cropping with marigold is being practiced in commercial operations. Marigold is well known among nematologists for its ability to produce compounds such as α-terthienyl that are allelopathic to many species of plant-parasitic nematodes. However, there are contradictory reports on how this compound is released. The uncertainty centers on whether allelopathic compounds are released from root or shoot tissues, by growing live plants or soil-amended tissues, as a response to nematode penetration, or as a non-specific repellent. Other mechanisms by which marigold suppresses plant-parasitic nematodes include acting as a poor host, enhancing nematode-antagonistic microorganisms, or acting as a “dead-end” trap crop. Interpretation is complicated because multiple mechanisms may operate simultaneously. Understanding the exact mechanisms responsible for the nematode-suppressive effects of marigold could lead to further/broader incorporation into nematode management programs. This literature review revealed variable findings from marigold use. For example, in some instances using marigold was reported to be more effective than nematicides or soil fumigants and in other instances it had a negative impact on cash crop growth and yield. This variation has been attributed to differences in the way marigolds were used (e.g. intercrop/cover crop/soil amendment, seeding rate, time between marigold and cash crop), marigold cultivar, species or races of target nematodes, temperature, or age of marigold plant. Thus, future research should focus on determining the exact causes of this variability and on developing field IPM programs that take advantage of the nematode-suppressive potential of marigold.  相似文献

The aim of this work was to calculate indices of hydrolase production (Pr) and persistence (Pe) through simple arithmetical calculations. Changes in acid and alkaline phosphomonoesterase, phosphodiesterase, urease, protease, and β-glucosidase activities were monitored under controlled conditions in seven soils with a wide range of properties, in which microbial growth was stimulated by adding glucose and nitrogen. Glucose mineralization was monitored by CO2–C evolution, and microbial growth was quantified by determining the soil adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content. Hydrolase Pr and Pe indices were numerically quantified by the following relationships: Pr = H / t H and Pe = (r / Ht, respectively, where H indicates the peak value of each measured hydrolase activity, t H is the time of the peak value, r indicates the residual activity value, and Δt is the time interval t r − t H, where t r is the time of the residual activity value. Addition of glucose and N-stimulated soil respiration increased ATP content and stimulated the production of the measured hydrolase activities in all soils; the measured variable reached a maximum value and then decreased, returning to the value of the control soil. Apart from β-glucosidase activity, whose activity was not stimulated by glucose and N addition, the other measured hydrolase activities showed a trend that allowed us to calculate the Pr and Pe indices using the above-mentioned equations. Acid phosphomonoesterase and protease Pr values were significantly higher in soils under forest or set aside management; the alkaline phosphomonoesterase and phosphodiesterase Pr values were generally higher in the neutral and alkaline soils, and the urease Pr values showed no obvious relationships with soil pH or management. Concerning the persistence of enzyme activities, Pe values of the acid phosphomonoesterase activity were significantly higher in the acidic soils, and those of urease activity were higher in acidic soils and the Bordeaux neutral soil. No relationships were observed between Pe values of alkaline phosphomonoesterase, phosphodiesterase, or protease activities and soil pH or management. The different responses of hydrolases were discussed in relation to soil properties, microbial growth, and regulation at the enzyme molecular level.  相似文献

The aim of this work was to assess and compare the influence of Eisenia foetida Savigny earthworms on C mineralization rate, labile C fractions (water-soluble C and water-soluble carbohydrates), microbial biomass C, and enzyme activities (dehydrogenase, urease, phosphatase and ß-glucosidase) in three soils of varying texture treated with a composted organic residue and cropped with Avena sativa L. Mineralization decreased with the addition of earthworms to the sandy and clay-loam soils, especially in sandy soil (by about 4 µg CO 2-C g -1 day -1). There were no significant effects on the amount of CO 2 evolved from clay soil due to the addition of E. foetida. The addition of E. foetida to sandy soil significantly decreased microbial biomass C and increased microbial metabolic quotient the qCO 2 (CO 2-C to biomass C ratio). The addition of E. foetida did not affect the microbial biomass or the qCO 2 of the clay-loam and clay soils.  相似文献

Perennial rye grass (Lolium perenne) was grown in a greenhouse pot experiment on seven soils to answer the question whether the microbial colonisation of roots is related to existing differences in soil microbial indices. The soils were similar in texture, but differed considerably in soil organic matter, microbial biomass, and microbial community structure. Ergosterol and fungal glucosamine were significantly interrelated in the root material. This ergosterol was also significantly correlated with the average ergosterol content of bulk and rhizosphere soil. In addition, the sum of fungal C and bacterial C in the root material revealed a significant linear relationship with microbial biomass C in soil. The colonisation of roots with microorganisms increased apparently with an increase in soil microbial biomass. In the root material, microbial tissue consisted of 77% fungi and 23% bacteria. In soil, the fungal dominance was slightly, but significantly lower, with 70% fungi and 30% bacteria. Fungal glucosamine in the root material was significantly correlated with that in soil (r=0.65). This indicates a close relationship between the composition of dead microbial remains in soil and the living fraction in soil and root material for unknown reasons.  相似文献

Changes in microbial C, N, and P were investigated for 1 year in two soils with similar physicochemical properties but supporting different crops under subtropical conditions. One was cropped with palmarosa (Cymbopogon martinii L.) and the other with Japanese mint (Mentha arvensis L.). Both the season and the type of cropping had a significant influence on changes in the soil microbial biomass. In general, soil microbial biomass C, N, and P were highest in summer months and lowest in midwinter. Soil microbial biomass levels and microbial C:N and C:P ratios were higher and N:P ratios lower under palmarosa soil than under mint.  相似文献

 Microwave irradiation was evaluated as a non-toxic alternate to chloroform fumigation for routine measurement of soil microbial biomass C. Microwave energy was applied to moist soil to disrupt microbial cells. The flush of C released was then measured after extraction or incubation. Microwave irradiation at 800 J g–1 soil was optimal because this level resulted in an almost instantaneous rise in soil temperature (≥80  °C), an abrupt reduction in microbial activity, maximal release of biomass C, and minimal solubilization of humic substances. Both incubation-CO2 titration and extraction-colorimetry methods were used on separate 20-g subsamples to compare the labile C in the microwave-treated and untreated soil samples. The incubation-titration method was also used to measure C in chloroform-fumigated soil samples. Averaged across soils, the chloroform fumigation yielded 123.3±5.1 mg CO2-C kg–1. Microwave irradiation yielded 93.6±3.9 mg CO2-C kg–1 soil determined by incubation and 52.4±2.4 mg C kg–1 soil determined by extraction, accounting for 76% and 42% of the net flush of C measured by the chloroform fumigation. Microwave-stimulated net flushes of C were correlated closely (r 2=0.974 for incubation or 0.908 for extraction) with microbial biomass C measured by the chloroform fumigation. Little correlation was found with the total soil organic C (r 2=0.241 for incubation or for 0.166 extraction). Mean efficiency factors for incubation (K MI) or extraction (K ME) were used to calculate microbial biomass C from net flushes of C between microwaved and unmicrowaved soils. Values of K MI and K ME were not affected by soil pH, bulk density or clay contents. Extraction of microwaved soil by 0.5M K2SO4 proved to be a simple, fast, precise, reliable, and safe method to measure soil microbial biomass C. Received: 12 September 1997  相似文献

Previous studies have shown that carbon (C) mineralization in saline or sodic soils is affected by various factors including organic C content, salt concentration and water content in saline soils and soil structure in sodic soils, but there is little information about which soil properties control carbon dioxide (CO2) emission from saline-sodic soils. In this study, eight field-collected saline–sodic soils, varying in electrical conductivity (ECe, a measure of salinity, ranging from 3 to 262 dS m−1) and sodium adsorption ratio (SARe, a measure of sodicity, ranging from 11 to 62), were left unamended or amended with mature wheat or vetch residues (2% w/w). Carbon dioxide release was measured over 42 days at constant temperature and soil water content. Cumulative respiration expressed per gram SOC increased in the following order: unamended soil<soil amended with wheat residues (C/N ratio 122)<soil with vetch residue (C/N ratio 18). Cumulative respiration was significantly (p < 0.05) negatively correlated with ECe but not with SARe. Our results show that the response to ECe and SARe of the microbial community activated by addition of organic C does not differ from that of the less active microbial community in unamended soils and that salinity is the main influential factor for C mineralization in saline–sodic soils.  相似文献

This research concerns the influence of no tillage (NT) or conventional tillage (CT) and a ryegrass (Lolium multiforum Lam.) cover crop in a cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) production system on soil and ryegrass microbial counts, enzyme activities, and fluometuron degradation. Fluorescein diacetate hydrolysis, aryl acylamidase, and colony-forming units (CFUs) of total bacteria and fungi, gram-negative bacteria, and fluorescent pseudomonads were determined in soil and ryegrass samples used in the degradation study. Fluometuron (14C-labelled herbicide) degradation was evaluated in the laboratory using soil and ryegrass. The CT and NT plots with a ryegrass cover crop maintained greater microbial populations in the upper 2 cm compared to their respective no-cover soils, and CT soils with ryegrass maintained greater bacterial and fungal CFUs in the 2–10 cm depth compared to the other soils The highest enzymatic activity was found in the 0–2 cm depth of soils with ryegrass compared to their respective soils without ryegrass. Ryegrass residues under NT maintained several hundred-fold greater CFUs than the respective underlying surface soils. Fluometuron degradation in soil and ryegrass residues proceeded through sequential demethylation and incorporation of residues into nonextractable components. The most rapid degradation was observed in surface (0 to 2 cm) soil from CT and NT–ryegrass plots. However, degradation occurred more rapidly in CT compared to NT soils in the 2 to 10 cm depth. Ryegrass cover crop systems, under NT or incorporated under CT, stimulated microbiological soil properties and promoted herbicide degradation in surface soils.  相似文献

生防链霉菌配施棉秆炭对连作棉田土壤微生物区系的影响   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0  
棉花是重要的经济作物,长期连作能引起棉花土壤微生态的失衡、土传病害加重、进而导致产量和品质的下降,影响棉花产业的健康发展。本文以连作棉田土壤为研究对象,进行室内培养试验,在施用生防放线菌黄三素链霉菌(Streptomyces flavotricini)的基础上添加不同量的棉秆炭[0 g·kg~(-1)(CK)、25.0 g·kg~(-1)、50.0 g·kg~(-1)、100.0 g·kg~(-1)],采用微生物计数和16S rDNA基因序列分析的方法,研究两者配施对连作棉田土壤中生防菌数量、微生物数量和种类的影响,为棉花黄萎病的生物防治提供新的思路。研究结果表明:(1)生防放线菌配施棉秆炭对连作棉田土壤中微生物区系有显著的影响。与单施生防放线菌菌剂的处理相比,两者配施显著增加了土壤中细菌、放线菌和真菌数量,其中配施25.0 g·kg-1棉秆炭处理使土壤中细菌/真菌数量比(B/F)、放线菌/真菌数量比(A/F)分别增加了5 271.2%和30.8%(P0.05)。(2)土壤中生防放线菌数量随着棉秆炭施用量增加而显著增加,配施100.0 g·kg~(-1)棉秆炭处理显著增加了2 672.8%(P0.05)。棉秆炭具有作为生防放线菌良好载体的潜力。(3)生防放线菌配施棉秆炭也改变了土壤中优势微生物的数量和比例,尤其提高了细菌中芽孢杆菌的数量和所占的比例;100.0 g·kg~(-1)棉秆炭与菌剂配施使土壤中链霉菌的数量及比例显著高于对照,但降低了小单孢菌数量;增加了真菌中米曲梅、黑曲霉和木霉的数量,但使其所占比例降低。由此可以看出,生防放线菌配施棉秆炭能提高连作棉田土壤中生防放线菌的数量,增强生防菌制剂的防病促生作用,改善连作棉田土壤微生物群落结构,在防控棉花连作障碍上具有较大的应用潜力。  相似文献

 The composition of soil microbiota in four heated (350  °C, 1 h) soils (one Ortic Podsol over sandstone and three Humic Cambisol over granite, schist or limestone) inoculated (1.5 μg chlorophyll a g–1 soil or 3.0 μg chlorophyll a g–1 soil) with cyanobacteria (Oscillatoria PCC9014, Nostoc PCC9025, Nostoc PCC9104, Scytonema CCC9801, and a mixture of the four) was studied by cultural methods. The aims of the work were to investigate the potential value of cyanobacteria as biofertilizers for accelerating soil recolonization after fire as well as promoting microbiotic crust formation and to determine the microbial composition of such a crust. The inoculated cyanobacteria proliferated by 5 logarithmic units in the heated soils which were colonized very quickly and, after 2 months of incubation, the cyanobacterial filaments and associated fungal hyphae made up a matrix in which surface soil particles were gathered into crusts of up to 1.0 cm in thickness. These crusts were composed, on average, of 2.5×1010 cyanobacteria, 2.8×106 algae, 6.1×1010 heterotrophic bacteria (of which 1.2×108 were acidophilic, 1.3×106 were Bacillus spp. and 1.5×108 were actinomycetes) and 77.8 m fungal mycelium (1.4×106 were fungal propagules) g–1 crust. Counts of most microbial groups were positively correlated to cyanobacterial numbers. The efficacy of treatment depended on both the class of inoculum and the type of soil. The best inoculum was the mixture of the four strains and, whatever the inoculum used, the soil over lime showed the most developed crust followed by the soils over schist, granite and sandstone; however, the latter was comparatively the most favoured by the amendment. In the medium term there were no significant differences between the two inocula rates used. Biofertilization increased counts of cyanobacteria by 8 logarithmic units while heterotrophic bacteria, actinomycetes, algae and fungal propagules rose by >4 logarithmic units, acidophilic bacteria and Bacillus spp. by around 3 logarithmic units and fungal mycelia showed an 80-fold increase. The results showed that inoculation of burned soils with particle-binding diazotrophic cyanobacteria may be a means of both improving crust formation and restoring microbial populations.

In this study, leguminous crops like Atylosia scarabaeoides, Centrosema pubescens, Calopogonium mucunoides, and Pueraria phaseoloides. grown as soil cover individually in the interspaces of a 19‐yr‐old coconut plantation in S. Andaman (India) were assessed for their influence on various microbial indices (microbial biomass C, biomass N, basal respiration, ergosterol, levels of ATP, AMP, ADP) in soils (0–50 cm) collected from these plots after 10 years. The effects of these cover crops on . CO2 (metabolic quotient), adenylate energy charge (AEC), and the ratios of various soil microbial properties viz., biomass C : soil organic C, biomass C : N, biomass N : total N, ergosterol : biomass C, and ATP : biomass C were also examined. Cover cropping markedly enhanced the levels of organic matter and microbial activity in soils after the 10‐yr‐period. Microbial biomass C and N, basal respiration, . CO2, ergosterol and levels of ATP, AMP, ADP in the cover‐cropped plots significantly exceeded the corresponding values in the control plot. While the biomass C : N ratio tended to decrease, the ratios of biomass N : total N, ergosterol : biomass C, and ATP : biomass C increased significantly due to cover cropping. Greater ergosterol : biomass C ratio in the cover‐cropped plots indicated a decomposition pathway dominated by fungi, and high . CO2 levels in these plots indicated a decrease in substrate use efficiency probably due to the dominance of fungi. The AEC levels ranged from 0.80 to 0.83 in the cover‐cropped plots, thereby reflecting greater microbial proliferation and activity. The ratios of various microbial and chemical properties could be assigned to three different factors by principal components analysis. The first factor (PC1) with strong loadings of ATP : biomass C ratio, AEC, and . CO2 reflected the specific metabolic activity of soil microbes. The ratios of ergosterol : biomass C, soil organic C : total N, and biomass N : total N formed the second factor (PC2) indicating a decomposition pathway dominated by fungi. The biomass C : N and biomass C : soil organic C ratios formed the third principal component (PC3), reflecting soil organic matter availability in relation to nutrient availability. Overall, the study suggested that Pueraria phaseoloides. or Atylosia scarabaeoides were better suited as cover crops for the humid tropics due to their positive contribution to soil organic C, N, and microbial activity.  相似文献

The characteristics are given of the prokaryotic complex participating in the processes of the primary soil formation on nepheline-containing waste and depending on the time of the waste disposal and degree of reclamation. The total population density of the bacteria determined with the method of fluorescent microscopy in “pure” sand ranged within 0.34—0.60 billion CFU/g soil; in the reclaimed sand under different vegatation communities, from 2.6 to 7.2 billion CFU/g soil. Gram-positive bacteria dominate in the prokaryotic complex of the nepheline sands, whereas the Grarrmegative ones dominate in the zonal soils. The bacteria predominating in the nepheline sands were classified on the basis of the comparative analysis of the nucleotide sequences in the 16S rRNA genes within the Actinobacteria class (Arthrobacter boritolerans, A. ramosus, Rhodococcusfascians, Micrococcus luteus, and Streptomyces spp.). The evolution of the microbial community in the nepheline sands in the course of their reclamation and in the course of their overgrowing by plants proceeds in way toward the microbial communities of the zonal soils on moraine deposits.  相似文献

Several biochemical and molecular methods are used to investigate the microbial diversity and changes in microbial community structure in rhizospheres and bulk soils resulting from changes in management. We have compared the effects of plants on the microbial community, using several methods, in three different types of soils. Pots containing soil from three contrasting sites were planted with Lolium perenne (rye grass). Physiological (Biolog), biochemical (PLFA) and molecular (DGGE and TRFLP) fingerprinting methods were employed to study the change in soil microbial communities caused by the growth of rye grass. Different methods of DNA extraction and nested PCR on TRFLP profiles were examined to investigate whether they gave different views of community structure. Molecular methods were used for both fungal and bacterial diversity. Principal component analysis of Biolog data suggested a significant effect of the plants on the microbial community structure. We found significant effects of both soil type and plants on microbial communities in PLFA data. Data from TRFLP of soil bacterial communities showed large effects of soil type and smaller but significant effects of plants. Effects of plant growth on soil fungal communities were measured by TRFLP and DGGE. Multiple Procrustes analysis suggested that both methods gave similar results, with only soil types having a significant effect on fungal communities. However, TRFLP was more discriminatory as it generated more ribotype fragments for each sample than the number of bands detected by DGGE. Neither methods of DNA extraction nor the nested PCR had any effect on the evaluation of soil microbial community structure. In conclusion, the different methods of microbial fingerprinting gave qualitatively similar results when samples were processed consistently and compatible statistical methods used. However, the molecular methods were more discriminatory than the physiological and biochemical approaches. We believe results obtained from this experiment will have a major impact on soil microbial ecology in general and rhizosphere–microbial interaction studies in particular, as we showed that the different fingerprinting methods for microbial communities gave qualitatively similar results.  相似文献

Summary In an incubation experiment, soil was amended to induce changes in microbial growth and enzyme production. The soluble fraction of newly produced protease (extracellular enzyme) was separated from the soil by a sterilized millipore filter. The activity of total and soluble protease, ATP content, number of acridine orange-stained bacteria, and CO2 evolution in soils were measured during the incubation. Increases in soluble and total protease activities in soils amended with agar and glucose coincided with increases in ATP content, total counts of bacteria, growth of fungi, and CO2 evolution. In amended soils, the activity of soluble extracellular protease was about 30% of the total protease activity. Soluble extracellular protease activity was highly correlated with total protease activity (r=0.78, P<0.01), ATP content (r=0.74, P<0.01), and total counts of bacteria (r=0.94, P<0.01) during the first 6 days of incubation. Hence measurement of microbial biomass appeared to be an index for the level of extracellular enzymes in soil.  相似文献

 In long-term field experiments on sandy loam and loamy sand soils, the influence of conservation and conventional tillage on soil and rhizosphere microorganisms was studied. Conservation tillage stimulated rhizosphere bacteria on winter wheat, winter barley, winter rye and maize in different soil layers. Particularly the populations of Agrobacterium spp. and Pseudomonas spp. were increased. On the sandy loam, N2 fixation and nodulation of pea plants were significantly increased. No influence of different soil tillage was determined on the colonization of the rhizosphere by mycorrhiza and saprophytic fungi. Stubble residues infected with Gaeumanomyces graminis were infectious for a longer time on the soil surface than after incorporation into the soil. Received: 10 March 1998  相似文献

Purpose

Microbial nitrification plays an important role in nitrogen cycling in ecosystems. Nitrification is performed by ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA), ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB), and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) including complete ammonia oxidizers. However, the relative importance of nitrifiers in autotrophic nitrification in relation to soil pH is still unclear.

Materials and methods

Combining DNA-based stable isotope probing (SIP) and molecular biological techniques, we investigated the abundance, structure, and activity of AOA, AOB, and NOB along a pH-gradient (3.97–7.04) in a vegetable cropped soil.

Results and discussion

We found that AOA abundance outnumbered AOB abundance and had a significantly negative relationship with soil pH. The abundances of NOB Nitrospira 16S rRNA, nxrB gene, and Nitrobacter nxrA gene were affected by soil pH. Incubation of soil with 13CO2 and DNA-SIP analysis demonstrated that significant 13CO2 assimilation by AOA rather than by AOB occurred in the acidic soils, whereas the labeled 13C level of AOA was much less in the neutral soil than in the acidic soils. There was no evidence of 13CO2 assimilation by NOB except for Nitrobacter with NxrB gene at pH 3.97. Phylogenetic analysis of AOA amoA gene in the 13C- and 12C-labeled treatments showed that the active AOA mainly belonged to Nitrososphaera in the acidic soils.

Conclusions

These results suggested that the main performer of nitrification was AOA in the acidic soils, but both AOA and AOB participated in nitrification in the neutral soil with low nitrification activity. NOB Nitrospira and Nitrobacter did not grow in the soils with pH 4.82–7.04 and other populations of NOB were probably involved in nitrite oxidation in the vegetable cropped soil.

We investigated Cd, Zn, and Cd + Zn toxicity to soil microbial biomass and activity, and indigenous Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar trifolii, in two near neutral pH clay loam soils, under long-term arable and grassland management, in a 6-month laboratory incubation, with a view to determining the causative metal. Both soils were amended with Cd- or Zn-enriched sewage sludge, to produce soils with total Cd concentrations at four times (12 mg Cd g−1 soil), and total Zn concentrations (300 mg Zn kg−1 soil) at the EU upper permitted limit. The additive effects of Cd plus Zn at these soil concentrations were also investigated. There were no significant differences in microbial biomass C (B C), biomass ninhydrin N (B N), ATP, or microbial respiration between the different treatments. Microbial metabolic quotient (defined as qCO2 = units of CO2–C evolved unit−1 biomass C unit−1 time) also did not differ significantly between treatments. However, the microbial maintenance energy (in this study defined as qCO2-to-μ ratio value, where μ is the growth rate) indicated that more energy was required for microbial synthesis in metal-rich sludge-treated soils (especially Zn) than in control sludge-treated soils. Indigenous R. leguminosarum bv. trifolii numbers were not significantly different between untreated and sludge-treated grassland soils after 24 weeks regardless of metal or metal concentrations. However, rhizobial numbers in the arable soils treated with metal-contaminated sludges decreased significantly (P < 0.05) compared to the untreated control and uncontaminated sludge-treated soils after 24 weeks. The order of decreasing toxicity to rhizobia in the arable soils was Zn > Cd > Cd + Zn.  相似文献
