摘要
团聚体是土壤基本结构单元,是土壤质量和肥力的基础,研究了解不同土地利用方式下,不同团聚体的生物学属性,有助于深入了解土壤肥力本质,以及不同土壤肥力差异的根本原因。采集半干旱地区林地、旱地、灌溉耕地和草地4种土壤利用类型的表层土壤,用干筛法获得6级团聚体,测定微生物量碳(MBC)、三磷酸腺苷(ATP)含量、基础呼吸速率(BR)和基质诱导呼吸量(SIR)等指标。结果表明:土壤微生物量ATP浓度在7.79—9.26μmol ATP/g Cmic,灌溉耕地最高、林地最低;微生物代谢熵(q CO2)和SIR分别为0.35—0.69μL CO2g-1Cmicd-1和88.7—132.2μg CO2g-1d-1,灌溉耕地最高、旱地最低。土壤团聚体的微生物量ATP浓度在6.54—9.32μmol/g Cmic之间,平均值为8.22μmol/g Cmic;q CO2和SIR分别为0.29—0.71μL/g Cmic和64—120μg CO2/g土,大团聚体含量总体上高于小团聚体,可能暗示不同团聚体土壤微生物群落活性及生理状态存在差异。土壤ATP含量、SIR和q CO2与微生物量碳呈显著相关性(r=0.929、0.865、0.885,P<0.01),SIR和BR之间也有存在较高的相关性(r=0.828、P<0.01),说明尽管各级团聚体微生物学属性的绝对值存在很大的差异,但相互关系并未随团聚体大小而变化。
Soil aggregates are the basic units of soil structure and play an important role in soil quality and fertility. It is thus meaningful to investigate the natures and differences in biochemical properties of different soil aggregates. Moreover,it may be benefit to understand the essence of soil fertility and fundamental reason for the difference in fertility of different soils. In this study,4 surface soils were sampled from woodland,none-irrigated cropland,irrigated cropland,and grassland in semi-arid region of Inner Mongolia. Six classes of soil aggregates with different diameters were collected with dry sieving method. The measured parameters included soil basic properties such as clay,organic matter,total nitrogen,K2SO4 extracted carbon,and soil microbial biomass C( MBC),ATP,basal respiration and substrate-induced respiration. The results showed that the irrigated soil had highest clay and organic matter contents,about 32. 2 g / kg and 29. 93 g / kg respectively,but lowest values in grassland soil,only 12. 2 g / kg and 12. 48 g / kg. The irrigated soil contained microbial biomass C of 336. 03 mg / kg,but the woodland soil and none-irrigated cropland soil had about 207.53 mg / kg and 216.11 respectively. The ATP content in soils ranged 0. 0016 — 0. 0031 μmol / g soil,higher in the irrigated soil,lower in thewoodland soil. The soil microbial biomass ATP concentration was the highest in the irrigated soil,about 9.26 μmol ATP / g Cmic,but lowest in the woodland soil,only 7. 79 μmol ATP /g Cmic. The soil basal respiration and substrate-induced respiration were the highest in the irrigated soil,10.31 μg CO2-C g-1soil d-1and 132.2 μg CO2g-1d-1respectively,but very low in the no-irrigated soil,only 3.33 μg CO2-C g-1soil d-1and 88.66 μg CO2g-1d-1. The microbial biomass metabolic quotient( q CO2) was high in the irrigated soil,about 0.69μg CO2-C g-1soil d-1but very low in the none-irrigated cropland soil,about 0.35 μL CO2-C g-1soil d-1. The result showed that the microbial activity in the irrigated soil was higher than other soils,which might be linked with the quantity and quality of organic C input,water soluble carbon content and water content. Different soil aggregates had different natures of microbial biochemical properties. The basal respiration,q CO2 and substrate-induced respiration in different soil aggregates were 0.29—0.71 μL / g Cmic,0.29—0.71 μL/μg Cmicand 64—120μg CO2/ g soil,respectively. The ATP content in soil aggregates changed among 0.83—3.02 nmol / g soil. The soil microbial biomass ATP concentration in soil aggregates were fallen within the range of 6.54—9.32 μmol / g Cmic. In general,the larger the soil aggregates,the higher values of those biochemical parameters were measured,which may imply the difference in microbial community and physiological activity among the soil aggregates. It may also indicate that microorganisms in larger aggregates( 〉 0. 25 mm) have higher carbon utilization efficiency than those of smaller aggregates( 〈 0. 25 mm). Soil microbial biomass ATP concentration, soil basal respiration and substrate-induced respiration were significantly and positively correlated with the soil microbial biomass C( r = 0. 929,0. 865,0. 885,P 〈 0. 01). There was also a significant correlation between basal respiration and substrate-induced respiration( r = 0. 828,P 〈 0. 01). It is evident that the relationships among the soil microbial parameters does not change with soil aggregates though dramatically different in the absolute values.
