The importance of the soil humus content is indisputable. Soil humus plays an important role in preserving soil fertility and exerts great influence on plant production and yield potential. However, proofing that management‐related changes in the stock of soil organic matter (SOM) have taken place against the background of spatial and temporal variation is a difficult task. In most cases, sampling over a long period of time is needed to verify these changes. Alternatively, potential changes in the SOM stock can be estimated using humus balancing models, which help to identify the need for humus reproduction on a farm. In general, a humus balance is the difference between the humus demand of cultivated crops and humus supply through crops and organic fertilizers. In this study, the ‘Dynamic Humus Unit Method' within the modelling program REPRO was applied to calculate the humus balance for 29 model‐farms that are representative of most of the agricultural production in Austria. Each model‐farm represents a specific production type (PT) and farming system in a defined region or main production area (MPA). This approach gives an overview of the humus balances at a large scale and allows a general trend in Austria to be estimated. Besides differing between conventional and organic farming systems, specific site conditions can also be selected in the model. The constructed model‐farms belong to different PTs such as “forage production”, “cash crops”, “refinement”, and “permanent crops”. The PT “permanent crops” refers to the cultivation of wine. The cropping system of each PT was analyzed in detail, while livestock keeping was considered only when applicable. Positive humus balances were found for all PTs except for permanent crops. The results ranged from –122 to 890 kg C ha^?1 y^?1. Regions and farm structure, e.g., forage production compared to cash crop, were found to have a greater influence than the kind of farming system (i.e., organic vs. conventional farming). Comparing the different PTs, forage production had the highest positive humus balances (219 to 890 kg C ha^?1 y^?1), followed by cash crop (24 to 239 kg C ha^?1 y^?1), refinement (–64 to 402 kg C ha^?1 y^?1) and permanent crops (–122 to –38 kg C ha^?1 y^?1). Regarding the farming system, organic farming led to more humus accumulation than conventional farming due to a higher share of fodder legumes and catch crops and more diverse crop rotations. The results were within the range of available empirical data on SOM change, and it was therefore concluded that the results are reasonable. In general, humus reproduction can be regarded as sufficient for agricultural production.  相似文献   

Seasonal development of above‐ and below‐ground organs of Trifolium pratense in grass–legume mixture on different soils          下载免费PDF全文

Grass–legume mixtures are suitable for crop rotations in organic farming. However, seasonal development of below‐ground organs of Trifolium pratense in mixtures and on different soils was neglected. We asked (1) how the diameter of the root neck, the maximum order of branching as well as (2) the nodule traits are affected by locality and time, and (3) how above‐ground plant traits of red clover vary in space and time. Red clover was investigated in grass–legume mixtures in the first year of vegetation. Five sites in S Germany were sampled at the day of cut at the end of May, the beginning of July, and at the end of August, respectively. Under similar climatic conditions root traits (diameter of the root neck, order of root branching, size of nodules, and proportion of senescent nodules) differed with soil conditions and time within the season. Root diameter increased during the season. Higher sand content fostered root branching and branched roots developed more nodules. Thinner roots had more active nodules (pink). Root diameter and non‐active senescent (green) or moribund (brown) nodules increased at the end of season. Nodule activity differed more according to season than to soil conditions. The number of nodules per plant (12.5–19.5) decreased from May to August. Cylindrical nodules were found on 85–100% of the plants and branched nodules only on 0–25%. The height of plants was lowest in May and increased in July. The mean number of stems per plant (3.3–6.3) was highest in August. Understanding red clover traits and N₂ fixation is interesting scientifically as well as agronomical. Organic and conventional farmers can both benefit of our findings.  相似文献   

Identification of Stress Sensitive Genes in Hyperthermic Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) Embryos by RAP-PCR     

H. Takle  G. Baeverfjord  Ø. Andersen 《Fish physiology and biochemistry》2004,30(3-4):275-281

Deformities of skeletal structures, the heart, and other organs are a recurrent problem in species used in intensive aquaculture. Elevated egg incubation temperature appears to be a high risk factor in the development of these malformations, but the causal relation has not been established. Our aim was to identify candidate genes involved in the development of heat induced deformities in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). Temperature sensitive genes were isolated by RNA Arbitrarily Primed (RAP)-PCR. A total of 33 RAP-PCR products were successfully sequenced, and the expression of eight identified genes was further examined by RT-PCR from pooled samples of heat exposed embryos. Five of these genes were demonstrated to be temperature sensitive, of which four were shown to be up-regulated and one was down-regulated at elevated water temperatures. The atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) gene, which is a promising candidate for heart deformities, showed the highest level of heat induction. Three additional RAP-PCR products identified as heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleprotein (hnRNP) A0, acyl CoA binding protein (ACBP) and mitochondrial (mt)-HSP70 showed up-regulated mRNA expression in response to elevated water temperature. The single down-regulated gene was identified as an Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) homolog of the cysteine and tyrosine-rich 1 (CYYR1) gene. This study demonstrated that a temperature elevation of only 4 °C during the early stages of the organogenesis in Atlantic salmon induce altered expression of a number of genes, which are candidates for the development of heat induced deformities.  相似文献   

Decreased concentration of hemoglobin,accumulation of lipid oxidation products and unchanged skeletal muscle in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) fed low dietary vitamin E     

Kristin Hamre  Brit Hjeltnes  Harald Kryvi  Sverre Sandberg  Mette Lorentzen  Øyvind Lie 《Fish physiology and biochemistry》1994,12(5):421-429

Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) fry, initial weight 0.16 g, were fed a semipurified diet with 0, 15, 30, 60 or 120 mg dl-α-tocopheryl acetate/kg. After 24 weeks, the first two of these groups were extinct, and the fish receiving 30 mg/kg were clearly vitamin E deficient. Vitamin E deficient fish had low hemoglobin levels, characterized by a combination of reduced cellular hemoglobin concentration, red cell volume and red cell number, and an increased number and fraction of immature red blood cells. The hemoglobin concentration decreased over the decreasing range of experimental dl-ga-tocopheryl acetate levels. Therefore, even if 60 mg dl-α-tocopheryl acetate/kg gave good survival, this level was clearly physiologically suboptimal. Ceroid accumulated in the liver of fish fed 30 mg vitamin E/kg, and autofluorescent inclusions were found in the red blood cells of fish fed 30 and 60 mg vitamin E/kg. Degeneration of skeletal muscle was not observed in the present study.  相似文献   

Tagging of juvenile lobsters (Homarus gammarus (L.)) with visible implant fluorescent elastomer tags     

Ingebrigt Uglem  Harald Nœss  Eva Farestveit  Knut Eirik Jørstad 《Aquacultural Engineering》1996,15(6):499-501

Visible implant fluorescent elastomer (VIFE) tags were implanted beneath the epidermal layer within the abdomen of 25 juvenile lobsters. After three molts the tag retention was 100% and the total survival 92%. The results suggest that VIFE tags could be an effective tool when assessing the feasibility of enhancing natural lobster stocks.  相似文献

The accumulation of heavy metals in soils and crops by practical sewage sludge application An accumulation of cadmium, lead, zinc and copper was found in some soils and crops after sewage sludge application as compared with same soils and plants not fertilized with sewage sludge. In the soils the heavy metals mainly were accumulated in the Ap-horizons. The displacement into subsoils was small, in spite of the good permeability of the sandy soils investigated. Relatively the mobility of zinc and cadmium in soils was most distinct. Within the plants the accumulation of the heavy metals was strongest in the roots, however also evident in the shoots of rye, barley and oats. Zinc and copper was concentrated in the grains, too. On the meadow-land an accumulation of the elements investigated was found in the blades of rye grass (Lolium perenne L.).  相似文献   

Exploring Ground Vegetation Change for Different Deposition Scenarios and Methods for Estimating Critical Loads for Biodiversity Using the ForSAFE-VEG Model in Switzerland and Sweden     

Salim Belyazid  Harald Sverdrup  Daniel Kurz  Sabine Braun 《Water, air, and soil pollution》2011,216(1-4):289-317

The ForSAFE-VEG model was used to investigate the impacts of climate change and air pollution scenarios on soil chemistry and ground vegetations composition. In particular, the model involves a ground vegetation model incorporating plant changes to ambient site conditions in terms of climate and chemistry, but the model also incorporate competition between the different plant groups. The model was validated against observed values and reproduced observations of tree growth, soil chemistry, and ground vegetation compositions to satisfaction. The results show that the ground vegetation reacts strongly to changes in air pollution, in particular nitrogen as well as to climate change with major shifts in plant composition. A procedure for estimating critical loads for nitrogen, using ground vegetation biodiversity as criterion, was tested and the method seems operable. It suggests that if we want to protect the present biodiversity of the ground vegetation, this will face significant difficulties because of permanent climate change that induced changes in the ecosystem. We conclude that the reference state for ground vegetation biodiversity is rather to be sought for in the future, hopefully using models, than in the past or present.  相似文献   

Ahornschmierlaus Phenaccocus aceris als ��bertr?ger des Little Cherry Virus-2 an S��?kirsche in Baden-W��rttemberg nachgewiesen     

Michael Petruschke  Dietlinde Ri?ler  Harald Schneller 《Erwerbs-Obstbau》2011,53(1):11-13

The Apple mealybug Phenacoccus aceris was verified as the vector of the Little Cherry Virus-2 (LChV-2) in Baden-Württemberg. However, this does not exclude the participation of even more different vectors. Because the Apple mealybug is more spread than presumed as of yet, this vector should be specifically controlled as well as fought in cherry orchards. If planting new cherry orchards it must be strictly adhered to virus-free, certificated plant matter, so that in areas free from Little cherry an epidemic as in the ??Altes Land?? can be avoided.  相似文献   

Reproductive failure in goats in Norway: an investigation in 24 herds.     

Harald Waideland  Torleiv Loken 《Acta veterinaria Scandinavica》1991,32(4):535-541

Twenty-four flocks comprising 2370 breeding goats were examined. Three hundred-and-sixty-nine (15.6%) of the goats either aborted or delivered dead kids at full term, or were barren. In 23 of the herds the rate of reproductive loss ranged from 2% to 36%, whereas in one herd all of 54 mated goats had live kids. A loss of greater than or equal to 20% was found in 9 herds comprising 799 goats. In 11 herds comprising 946 goats the rate of reproductive failure was less than or equal to 10%. The incidence of reproductive failure was higher in older goats than in those in their first or second pregnancy. The causes were identified in only about 3% of the goats that aborted. It is concluded that reproductive failure in many flocks probably is associated with non-infectious causes such as nutritional and environmental factors.  相似文献
