氮是植物和微生物生长繁殖的必需营养元素,而氮矿化表征了土壤供氮能力。通过盆栽实验,采用同位素稀释法和磷脂脂肪酸(PLFA)法,研究了添加硝化抑制剂和秸秆条件下,潮棕壤碳氮矿化和微生物群落组成变化特征。结果表明,与施氮量N 0.1 g·kg~(-1)的单施氮肥处理(NF)相比,氮肥配施1%硝化抑制剂(NFI)的土壤铵态氮提高32%,而硝态氮降低53%。氮肥与施用量为5 g·kg~(-1)的秸秆配施(NS),土壤氮素总矿化速率增加36%,微生物生物量碳提高51%,β-葡萄糖苷酶活性提高36%,同时显著增加了土壤总PLFA以及细菌、真菌、真菌/细菌和革兰式阴性菌(P0.05),土壤呼吸熵降低50%。与氮肥配施秸秆处理(NS)相比,氮肥、秸秆和硝化抑制剂配施处理(NSI),土壤铵态氮提高33%,硝态氮下降47%。综上所述,氮肥和秸秆配施可以提高土壤微生物生物量,改变土壤微生物群落组成,配施1%(N)硝化抑制剂后降低土壤硝化速率,增加土壤供氮能力。 相似文献

添加尿素和秸秆对三熟制水旱轮作土壤各形态氮素的影响 总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4
添加不同外源氮对土壤中不同形态氮素的转化具有十分重要的影响。选取长期耕作土壤,设置对照、添加尿素N 150 kg/hm~2(U150)、添加秸秆(相当于添加N 38 kg/hm~2,Straw)、添加尿素N 150 kg/hm~2+秸秆(相当于添加N188 kg/hm~2,U150+Straw)和添加尿素N 188 kg/hm~2(U188)5个处理进行室内培养试验,研究了添加不同外源氮对土壤铵态氮、硝态氮、可溶性有机氮、微生物生物量氮含量的影响。结果表明,土壤铵态氮随着培养时间的延长表现为先增后减的趋势,添加尿素的两个处理其土壤铵态氮较Straw、U150+Straw处理能够更快地达到峰值;而土壤硝态氮则表现为逐步增加的趋势。添加尿素处理能够显著提高土壤矿质氮的含量,在添加等量氮素的条件下,U188处理矿质氮含量在培养期间始终高于U150+Straw处理;此外,U150+Straw处理矿质氮含量在培养前期均低于U150处理,至培养30天后其含量略高于U150处理。与对照相比,培养结束时添加不同外源氮素处理的土壤矿质氮含量能够提高169.61%~496.75%。对于微生物生物量氮和可溶性有机氮而言,添加不同外源氮素分别在培养10天和30天达到峰值,此后逐渐降低。不同处理而言,添加秸秆+尿素、添加秸秆处理的微生物生物量氮和可溶性有机氮含量在培养前期明显高于仅添加尿素的两个处理,说明添加有机物料氮源主要有益于提高土壤有机态的氮素含量。 相似文献

冬小麦免耕覆盖与有机栽培对土壤微生物群落组成的影响 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
为揭示农业管理活动对土壤微生物群落结构及AM真菌多样性的影响,以农田土壤生态系统为研究对象,选取免耕覆盖+施有机肥（NF）、免耕覆盖+不施有机肥（NC）、传统耕作不覆盖+施有机肥（TF）和传统耕作不覆盖+不施有机肥（TC）4种处理,采用Illumina Miseq高通量测序及磷脂脂肪酸（phospholipid fatty acids,PLFAs）分析方法,研究持续冬小麦免耕覆盖有机栽培3年后,土壤微生物群落结构组成、AM真菌及其多样性与土壤环境因子间的关系。结果表明,持续免耕覆盖有机栽培能增加以PLFA表征的土壤微生物群落的生物量,传统耕作显著提高了土壤革兰氏阳性菌（G+）、阴性菌（G-）的生物量（P<0.05）。且随免耕栽培管理年限增加,土壤AM真菌生物量呈显著上升趋势;以16：1ω5c中性脂（NLFA）与16：1ω5c磷脂（PLFA）表征的AM真菌生物量比值显著升高（P<0.05）。免耕覆盖措施下,有机肥的施用提高了土壤AM真菌丰富度指数（Chao1指数和ACE指数）,但降低了土壤AM真菌的多样性（香农指数、辛普森指数）。主成分分析结果显示,AM真菌孢子（16：1ω5c中性脂）的生物量与土壤有机质、土壤易提取球囊霉素含量呈正相关关系,AM真菌丰富度指数与土壤有机质含量呈正相关,AM真菌多样性指数与土壤全氮含量、脲酶活性呈正相关。受农业管理措施导致的土壤理化性状及土壤生物学差异等综合因素影响,土壤微生物生物量及AM真菌多样性和丰富度改变。免耕覆盖措施提高了土壤AM真菌多样性指数,有机肥施用显著影响了AM真菌NLFA/PLFA生物量的比例,改变了AM真菌孢子和菌丝间生物量碳的分配关系。 相似文献

研究肥际氮素浓度下添加不同碳源后微生物的变化特征,对于了解不同活性碳源对肥际养分浓度下氮素转化和调控作用以及提高氮素利用率等具有重要意义。采集我国亚热带地区典型的水稻土,模拟肥际氮素浓度,设置不同硫铵用量和葡萄糖、纤维素或木质素碳源添加处理,进行室内培养试验,研究了各处理土壤微生物生物量碳氮、矿化及微生物群落功能多样性的变化。结果表明,在培养7天和35天,高氮素用量下与不添加碳源处理相比,添加葡萄糖、纤维素和木质素各处理土壤微生物生物量碳分别增加5.0%～126.8%、17.5%～210.9%和14.7%～210.0%,微生物生物量氮分别增加-5.4%～109.3%、32.0%～173.1%和-14.2%～194.8%(负数表示减少)。而中等和常量氮素条件下添加这3种碳源,土壤微生物生物量碳氮也呈增加趋势。肥际氮素各浓度下添加葡萄糖处理CO2释放量最多,其次是添加纤维素,最后是添加木质素。BIOLOG分析显示,高、中氮素用量下,平均吸光值(AWCD)、Shannon、Simpson和McIntosh指数都较低,添加3种碳源处理后均有提高,而单独添加不同碳源及添加常量氮素和碳源处理,AWCD值和微生物功能多样性指数水平较高。较高的肥际氮素浓度下添加葡萄糖、纤维素或木质素可提高土壤微生物活性。在当前大量施无机氮肥的条件下,注重有机物的配合施用,有利于减小氮素损失的风险。 相似文献

为揭示长期种植毛竹林土壤丛枝菌根(Arbuscular mycorrhizae,AM)真菌群落演变特征,通过磷脂脂肪酸(Phospholipid fatty acid,PLFA)和Illumina Miseq测序平台研究了AM真菌生物量及群落结构的演变趋势。结果表明,长期种植毛竹林土壤养分含量总体呈下降趋势,球囊霉素相关土壤蛋白(Glomalin-related soil protein,GRSP)含量及AM真菌生物量也显著降低(p0.05),其中易提取态球囊霉素相关土壤蛋白(Easily extractable glomalin-related soil protein,EE-GRSP)含量与有机质、碱解氮、速效钾显著正相关(p0.05),而AM真菌菌丝生物量(16:1ω5 PLFA)与碱解氮极显著正相关(p0.01)。长期种植毛竹林显著降低了土壤2~0.25 mm大团聚体比例(p0.05),且与AM真菌菌丝生物量极显著正相关(p0.01)。测序结果表明,毛竹林土壤AM真菌以球囊霉属(Glomus)为优势种群,其次为无梗囊霉属(Acaulospora),长期种植毛竹后土壤球囊霉属相对丰度显著增加而无梗囊霉属显著降低(p0.05)。非度量多维尺度转换排序(Non-metric multidimensional scaling,NMDS)分析显示,对照马尾松林与不同种植年限毛竹林土壤AM真菌群落显著区分(p=0.001),土壤含水量(p=0.005)、碱解氮(p=0.001)、有效磷(p=0.014)对AM真菌群落结构变异具有重要贡献。长期种植毛竹显著降低了AM真菌生物量、球囊霉素相关土壤蛋白含量以及2~0.25 mm大团聚体比例,并改变了AM真菌群落结构,不利于土壤碳固存和维持生态系统稳定。 相似文献

开展准噶尔荒漠植物群落对未来降雨量变化的响应机制研究,不仅有助于揭示气候变化对荒漠生态系统的影响,也有助于准确评价荒漠生态系统各项健康指标并预测其演变趋势,对荒漠草地可持续管理具有重要理论与实践意义。以新疆准噶尔盆地东南缘荒漠植被为研究对象,2016—2017年在生长季(4—9月)开展不同梯度的人工增减雨试验(减雨60%、减雨30%、自然对照、增雨30%、增雨60%),分析了群落物种组成、多样性、盖度及生产力对生长季不同降雨量变化的响应。研究表明:减雨样地物种数量偏少,假木贼的优势明显,增雨样地内物种较多,且绢蒿的优势度明显增加;样地内植物群落物种丰富度(特别是一年生植物的物种丰富度)随降雨量增加呈上升趋势,且各处理间差异显著(p0.05);随降雨量增加,灌木盖度、多年生草本植物盖度,以及植物群落总盖度与降雨量呈明显正相关(p0.05),一年生草本植物盖度与降雨量无相关性;总地上生物量随降雨量增加,先增大后减小,当降雨增加30%时,地上生物量达到最大值。其中,多年生草本植物表现出与总地上生物量同样的变化趋势,灌木生物量随降雨量的增加而增加,且在增雨60%时达到最大值,一年生草本植物没有明显变化规律。本研究表明,降雨量减少不利于准噶尔荒漠草地,与极端的60%降雨量增加相比,正常年际30%的降雨量增加更有利于准噶尔荒漠植物群落维持物种多样性的维持和提高群落生产力的提高。 相似文献

Changes in soil organic carbon, total nitrogen, pH, and the abundance of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are examined along a large-scale aridity gradient from southeast to northwest in China. Soil organic carbon and total nitrogen decreased but pH increased with increased aridity. Aboveground plant biomass, spore abundance, and colonization of roots by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi also declined as the aridity increased. Soil organic carbon and total nitrogen were positively correlated with aboveground plant biomass, and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal spore number and root colonization were positively correlated with soil organic carbon, total nitrogen, and aboveground plant biomass but were negatively correlated with soil pH. A structural equation model suggested that aridity affected soil organic carbon and total nitrogen by limiting aboveground plant biomass. Aridity exerted a large direct effect and smaller indirect effects (via changes in aboveground plant biomass) on the abundance of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Soil pH also directly influenced arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal abundance. These results suggest that aboveground plant biomass could be a key factor driving the changes of soil organic carbon, total nitrogen, and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal abundance along this aridity gradient in China. 相似文献

Tempo-spatial dynamics of AM fungi within the rhizome system of Psammochloa villosa (Poaceae) were investigated in Mu Us sandland, northwest China. Soil samples in the annual and perennial ramet rhizospheres of P. villosa were collected in 2007. AM fungal percent colonization reached maximal values in the rainy season and spore number in the dry season. Spore number exhibited positive correlation with soil pH and available phosphorous (P) (P < 0.01), and negative correlation with available nitrogen (N) (P < 0.05). Vesicular, arbuscular, hyphal and total colonization were positively correlated with soil organic matter and available P (P < 0.01), and negatively correlated with available N (P < 0.01). Fourteen species of AM fungi in four genera were isolated. The same AM fungal taxa were found in the annual and perennial ramet rhizospheres, although the last ones had higher fungal colonization and spore number. A high Shannon-Weiner diversity index of AM fungi was observed. Spore number and species richness indicated that Glomus was the predominant AM fungi, especially the small-spored taxa. AM fungal dynamics under P. villosa are highly seasonal: different aged ramets and nutrient availability have effects on AM fungal development and abundance in Mu Us sandland. 相似文献

Terrestrial ecosystems worldwide are receiving increasing amounts of biologically reactive nitrogen (N) as a consequence of anthropogenic activities. This intended or unintended fertilization can have a wide range of impacts on the above- and belowground communities. An increase in high N availability has been assumed to be a major mechanism enhancing the abundance of above- and belowground communities. In addition to increasing available N, however, N enrichment causes soil acidification, which may negatively affect above- and belowground communities. The relative importance of increased N availability vs. increased soil acidity for above- and belowground communities in natural ecosystems experiencing N enrichment is unclear. In a 12-year N enrichment experiment in a semi-arid grassland, N enrichment substantially increased both above- and belowground plant biomass mainly via the N availability-induced increase in biomass of perennial rhizome grasses. N enrichment also dramatically suppressed bacterial, fungal, and actinobacteria biomass mainly via the soil acidification pathway (acidification increased concentrations of H+ ions and Al3+ and decreased concentrations of mineral cations). In addition, N enrichment also suppressed bacterial-, fungal-feeding, and omnivorous + carnivorous nematodes mainly via the soil acidification pathway (acidification reduced nematode food resources and reduced concentrations of mineral cations). The positive effects resulting from the increase in belowground carbon allocation (via increase in quantity and quality of plant production) on belowground communities were outweighed by the negative effects resulting from soil acidification, indicating that N enrichment weakens the linkages between aboveground and belowground components of grassland ecosystems. Our results suggest that N enrichment-induced soil acidification should be included in models that predict biota communities and linkages to carbon and nitrogen cycling in terrestrial ecosystems under future scenarios of N deposition. 相似文献

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi form associations with most land plants and can control carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus cycling between above- and belowground components of ecosystems. Current estimates of AM fungal distributions are mainly inferred from the individual distributions of plant biomes, and climatic factors. However, dispersal limitation, local environmental conditions,and interactions among AM fungal taxa may also determine local diversity and global distributions. We assessed the relative importance of these potential controls by collecting 14,961 DNA sequences from 111 published studies and testing for relationships between AM fungal community composition and geography, environment, and plant biomes. Our results indicated that the global species richness of AM fungi was up to six times higher than previously estimated, largely owing to high beta diversity among sampling sites. Geographic distance, soil temperature and moisture, and plant community type were each significantly related to AM fungal community structure, but explained only a small amount of the observed variance. AM fungal species also tended to be phylogenetically clustered within sites, further suggesting that habitat filtering or dispersal limitation is a driver of AM fungal community assembly. Therefore, predicted shifts in climate and plant species distributions under global change may alter AM fungal communities. 相似文献

Nitrogen is a major nutrient that frequently limits primary productivity in terrestrial ecosystems. Therefore, the physiological responses of plants to soil nitrogen (N) availability have been extensively investigated, and the study of the soil N-cycle has become an important component of ecosystem ecology and biogeochemistry. The bulk of the literature in these areas has, however, overlooked the fact that most plants form mycorrhizal associations, and that nutrient uptake is therefore mediated by mycorrhizal fungi. It is well established that ecto- and ericoid mycorrhizas influence N nutrition of plants, but roles of arbuscular mycorrhizas in N nutrition are less well established; perhaps even more importantly, current conceptual models ignore possible influences of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi on N-cycling processes. We review evidence for the interaction between the AM symbiosis with microbes and processes involved in soil N-cycling. We show that to date investigations have rather poorly addressed such interactions and discuss possible reasons for this. We outline mechanisms that could potentially operate with regards to AM fungal – N-cycling interactions, discuss experimental designs aimed at studying these, and conclude by pointing out priorities for future research. 相似文献

Recycling of olive mill wastewaters (OMW) into agricultural soils is a controversial issue since benefits to soil fertility should counterbalance potential short-term toxicity effects. We investigated the short-term effects of OMW on the soil-plant system, regarding the diversity, structure and root colonization capacity of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and the respective growth response of Vicia faba L, commonly used as green manure in olive-tree plantations. A compartmentalized pot system was used that allowed the establishment of an AM fungal community in one compartment (feeder) and the application of three OMW dose levels in an adjacent second compartment (receiver). At 0, 10, and 30 days after OMW treatment (DAT), V. faba pre-germinated seeds were seeded in the receiver compartment. At harvest, shoot and root dry weights, AM fungal root colonization, soil hyphal length and P availability were recorded in the receiver compartment. In addition, OMW effects on AM fungal diversity in plant roots were studied by DGGE. A transient effect of OMW application was observed; plant growth and AM fungal colonization were initially inhibited, whereas soil hyphal length was stimulated, but in most cases differences were absent when seeding was performed 30 DAT. Similarly, changes induced in the structure of the root AM fungal community were of transient nature. Cloning and sequencing of all the major DGGE bands showed that roots were colonized by Glomus spp. The transient effects of OMW on the structure and function of AM fungi could be attributed to OMW-derived phytoxicity to V. faba plants or to an indirect effect via alteration of soil nutritional status. The high OMW dose significantly increased soil P availability in the presence of AM fungi, suggesting efficient involvement of AM fungi in organic-P minerilization. Overall our results indicate that soil application of OMW would cause transient changes in the AM fungal colonization of V. faba plants, which, would not impair their long-term plant growth promoting ability. 相似文献

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are important functional components of ecosystems. Although there is accumulating knowledge about AMF diversity in different ecosystems, the effect of forest management on diversity and functional characteristics of AMF communities has not been addressed. Here, we used soil inoculum representing three different AM fungal communities (from a young forest stand, an old forest stand and an arable field) in a greenhouse experiment to investigate their effect on the growth of three plant species with contrasting local distributions - Geum rivale, Trifolium pratense and Hypericum maculatum. AM fungal communities in plant roots were analysed using the terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) method. The effect of natural AMF communities from the old and young forest on the growth of studied plant species was similar. However, the AMF community from the contrasting arable ecosystems increased H. maculatum root and shoot biomass compared with forest inocula and T. pratense root biomass compared to sterile control. According to ordination analysis AMF inocula from old and young forest resulted in similar root AMF communities whilst plants grown with AM fungi from arable field hosted a different AMF community from those grown with old forest inocula. AMF richness in plant roots was not related to the origin of AMF inoculum. G. rivale hosted a significantly different AM fungal community to that of T. pratense and H. maculatum. We conclude that although the composition of AM fungal communities in intensively managed stands differed from that of old stands, the ecosystem can still offer the ‘symbiotic service’ necessary for the restoration of a characteristic old growth understorey plant community. 相似文献

Repeated prescribed burning is frequently used as a forest management tool and can influence soil microbial diversity and activity. Soil fungi play key roles in carbon and nutrient cycling processes and soil fungal community structure has been shown to alter with increasing burning frequency. Such changes are accompanied by changes to soil carbon and nitrogen pools, however, we know little regarding how repeated prescribed burning alters functional diversity in soil fungal communities. We amended soil with 13C-cellulose and used RNA stable isotope probing to investigate the effect of biennial repeated prescribed burning over a 34-year period on cellulolytic soil fungi. Results indicated that repeated burning altered fungal community structure. Moreover, fungal community structure and diversity in 12C and 13C fractions from the unburned soil were not significantly different from each other, while those from the biennial burned soils differed from each other. The data indicate that fewer active fungi in the biennially burned soil incorporated 13C from the labelled cellulose and that repeated prescribed burning had a significant impact on the diversity of an important functional group of soil fungi (cellulolytic fungi) that are key drivers of forest soil decomposition and carbon cycling processes. 相似文献

Resource islands around woody plants are thought to define the structure and function of many semiarid and arid ecosystems, but their role in patterning of soil microbial communities remains largely unexamined in dry environments. This study examined soil resource distribution and associated fungal communities in two Allocasuarina luehmannii (buloke) remnants of semiarid north-western Victoria, Australia. These savannah-like woodlands are listed as endangered due to extensive clearing for agriculture. We used the DNA-based profiling technique T-RFLP and ordination-based statistical methods to compare fungal community compositions in surface soils from two remnants (located 1.6 km apart) and three sampling positions (beneath individual buloke canopies; grassy inter-canopy areas; and adjoining cleared paddocks). Resource island formation beneath buloke trees was clearly evident in soil physicochemical properties (e.g. threefold concentrations of total carbon and nitrogen in canopy versus non-canopy soils). This heterogeneity of resources was moderately correlated with soil fungal community compositions, which were distinct for each sampling position. We argue that fungal composition patterns reflected multiple roles of fungi in dryland ecosystems, namely: responses of saprotrophic fungi to tree organic matter inputs; specificity of ectomycorrhizal fungi to tree rooting zones; and fungal involvement in biological soil crusts that variably covered non-canopy soils. Our data did not indicate that buloke canopy areas were particular hotspots of soil fungal diversity, but that they increased landscape-level diversity by supporting a distinct suite of fungi. In addition, we provide evidence of phylogenetic differentiation of soil fungal communities between our two remnants, which adds to growing evidence of fungal genetic structure at localised scales. These findings highlight the importance of remnant trees in conserving both soil resources and microbial genetic diversity. In addition, evidence of differentiation of soil fungal phylogenetics between nearby but isolated remnants suggests that conserving soil fungal diversity requires conservation of host habitats over their entire (remaining) range, and indicates previously unseen consequences of tree loss from extensively cleared landscapes. 相似文献
