Basically, there was no significant correlation between soil C, N, and P and soil MBC, MBN and MBP with MBC:MBP and MBN:MBP. According to the Duncan test, different letters indicate a significant difference between tree species (p < 0.05), while “ns” indicates no significant difference. The availability of N, K, P determines the fertility of the soil, which indirectly affects the microbial population. Bulk density depends on soil make-up for example, course textured sandy soils have less pore spaces than fine textured soils such as a loam which has high porosity. 5). However, the variation was not obvious. However, there were no significant differences in microbial biomass P between the two soil depths, among the three tree species, or in their interactions. A global analysis of soil microbial biomass carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus in terrestrial ecosystems. did not show regular changes. There was no significant difference in the SOC content at 10–20 cm. Tree species was also the most important influencing factor, being responsible for more than 70% of the variation. This regulation of degradation by density becomes dominant for bacteria with an efficient uptake of substrate at low substrate concentrations (i.e. New Phytol. The transforming factors of microbial biomass C and N are 0.45 and 0.54, respectively [31, 32, 34]. D’Angelo E, Crutchfield J, Vandiviere M. Rapid, sensitive, microscale determination of phosphate in water and soil. Tree species, as the most important influencing factor, impacted soil MBC:MBN and MBC:MBP. However, the N:P ratio of soil microbial biomass was limited, and its range was much narrower than that of plant leaves. At 10–20 cm, the soil TN contents of the sunny slopes of Q. variabilis and L. principis-ruprechtii and the shady slope of C. coggygria Scop. PLoS ONE. [14] found that the effect of different tree species on soil organic C and N and soil MBC and MBN was greater than the effect of topographic factors (such as slope position) in the Loess Plateau, consistent with the results of this study.

Levene’s test was performed to determine the homogeneity of variance. N and P are generally deemed the most important limiting elements to plants in terrestrial ecosystems. soil microbial activity (Linn and Doran, 1984). © 2020 BioMed Central Ltd unless otherwise stated. Organic material quality explained 29.5-50.9% of the variance in MBC and MBN when compared with the minor role of soil type (1.4-9.3%) at the end of the 1st and 12th months, and C/N ratio and total N of organic material were the main parameters. The study aimed to test the following hypotheses: (1) Environmental factors (tree species, slope position and aspect) affect the C, N and P contents in the soil and microbial biomass of different soil depths (0–10 cm, 10–20 cm) and their ecological stoichiometry. The environmental factor analysis showed that the tree species factor could account for 80.5% of the variation, and the slope aspect and position and other topographic factors could account for 8.8% of the variation.

Rainfall is usually the limiting factor for microbial biomass in southern Australia (figure 2). Identifying drivers of microbial community structures in soils is challenging. The population of microorganisms in the soil are affected or influenced by many factors including soil moisture, pH, temperature, aeration, and amounts of organic and inorganic nutrients. However, there was no such regular variation in other slopes except that there was a significant difference in the soil TP contents between the shady slope of Q. variabilis and that of L. principis-ruprechtii. The remaining soil samples were dried naturally and then screened through a 20-mesh sieve to obtain the 1-mm soil sample and then screened through a 0.149-mm sieve to measure the total nutrients of the soil. 2006;31:220–7. 2014;75:94–101. [10] found that a high N:P ratio in soil microbes in the vegetation restoration area of the Loess Plateau demonstrated that plant growth was limited by P. In this study, the average soil microbial biomass N:P of tree species was 10.9 (equivalent to the atomic ratio of 24.1), which suggested that there was a relative lack of N in this area and that tree species may be mainly limited by N. This result was consistent with the conclusion reached by Bai et al. Effects of geographic factors and tree species on the soil C, N and P contents. 2009;15:544–1556. Generally, rocks have a density of 2.65 g/cm3. Forests. CCO: Q. variabilis; LPP: L. principis-ruprechtii; CCS: C. coggygria Scop.

The change in plant species is a main factor affecting the soil C:N ratio. and lowest in the sunny top slope of L. principis-ruprechtii. The p values were adjusted by the false discovery rate. Soil properties, e.g., organic C and clay content were the predominant influence on microbial functional diversity in particular at the end of the 12th month (61.8-82.8% of the variance explained). The above studies provide new ideas and research methods for the study of nutrient cycling and limitations in forest ecosystems. soil was highest in the sunny bottom slope, and there was no significant difference in the C:N ratio between the sunny bottom slope and the other slope positions. Soil Biol Biochem. To begin defining the key determinants that drive microbial community structure in soil, we examined 29 soil samples from four geographically distinct locations taken from the surface, vadose zone, and saturated subsurface using a small-subunit rRNA-based cloning approach. Plant N:P usually varies with changes in tree species or vegetation [6, 51], mainly due to the biogeographical gradient difference in soil matrix age. was in the order of bottom slope > middle slope > top slope. In contrast, at 10–20 cm, slope position was a more important factor in terms of its influence on the soil C, N and P and soil MBC, MBN and MBP contents. At the same time, the SMA analysis results indicate that the soil C, N and P contents and soil MBC, MBN, and MBP contents show a nonisometric relationship (Table 5), the slope between soil MBC and soil C is significantly greater than 1, and the slope between soil MBP and soil P content is even greater.

Soil microbial community structure, metabolic potentials and influencing factors in a subtropical mountain forest ecosystem of China. Chloroform fumigation and the release of soil nitrogen: a rapid direct extraction method to measure microbial biomass nitrogen in soil. exhibited a similar tendency as that of SOC, that is, the highest content was found in the bottom slope (2.67 g/kg, 2.46 g/kg and 2.05 g/kg, respectively) and the lowest content was found in the top slope (1.6 g/kg, 1.33 g/kg and 1.74 g/kg, respectively), and the difference was significant. Privacy Effect of three tree species on the soil organic C, N and P contents. Amount of air space: The top soil contains much more pore spaces than the sub-soil, thus the opportunity for gaseous exchange is more in the top soil than in sub-soil.Hence the oxygen content of the top soil is greater that the sub-soil. Fanin et al. In view of their strong interactions, biochemical and transport processes cannot be handled independently but should be integrated, in particular when biochemical processes of interest are carried out by oligotrophs. Global patterns of plant leaf N and P in relation to temperature and latitude. For example, Devi and Yadava [4] showed that soil moisture content had a strong impact on soil microbial biomass, and tree species significantly affected soil and soil MBC, MBN, and MBP contents. As shown in Fig. In each sample plot, 5–6 sampling points were randomly selected, with a distance between sampling points of about 10 m. The floating leaves were gently removed, and soil samples were collected from depths of 0–10 and 10–20 cm with a soil auger whose bit length was 30 cm. However, studies on soil and microbial biomass stoichiometry in forests are rare. Based on this information, this paper took Funiu Mountain, China, as the research site to study the effects of tree species and topography on soil and microbial biomass stoichiometry.

PubMed Central  Redundancy analysis showed that the contribution of tree species to these differences was 57.1%, whereas that of topographical factors was 36.2%. The lack of elements necessary for the formation of microbes during leaf decomposition may cause microbes to rely heavily on N or P and result in a change in homeostasis. Reich PB, Oleksyn J. Ecology. Controls of foliar N: P ratios in tropical rain forests. Under the same tree species conditions, aspect is the most important factor influencing soil nutrient content and soil microbial biomass at a soil depth of 0–10 cm, whereas slope position has a greater impact at 10-20 cm. California Privacy Statement, Soil available nitrogen was the most associated with soil microbial functional gene structure. Tree species, as a potential factor, influences soil microbial ecological stoichiometric ratios. Most studies in soil microbiology have been concerned with either specific groups of the soil microflora or specific activities such as nitrifi- cation, organic matter transformations, or repression of plant pathogens. SMATR2.0 [39] was used for the standardized major axis (SMA) analysis of the relationship between the C, N and P contents in soil and those in soil microbial biomass [6, 31] to explore the homeostasis of the soil microbial biomass. 2010;46:177–82. Each soil sample was made up of subsamples marked “fumigated” and “unfumigated”. ; ns: not significant. Soil PH (H-ion Concentration) 8. Ecosystems. Soil MBC, MBN, and MBP are more sensitive to environmental change than are soil C, N, and P. The better water content condition in the shady slope is favorable to microbial growth and reproduction, facilitating nutrient transformation. Máren IE, Karki S, Prajapati C, et al. These findings were basically consistent with those reported by Cleveland and Liptzin [6], which indicated that soil microbes had homeostasis. At 10–20 cm, the soil TP contents in the sunny slopes of Q. variabilis and L. principis-ruprechtii and the shady slope of C. coggygria Scop. The soil microbes also display homeostasis. FACTORS INFLUENCING COMPACTION OF SOILS W.J. The homeostasis of ecological chemistry is defined as the extent to which an organism maintains the stability of its own chemical composition when the chemical composition and availability of external resources vary [5]. P was extracted using 0.5M NaHCO3 (pH 8.5) [33]. The soil environment directly affects the types of microbes, as … J Green Sci Technol. One part of fresh soil was preserved at 4 °C and the contents of soil microbial biomass C, N and P were measured within 10 days.

Townsend AR, Cleveland CC, Asner GP, Bustamante MMC. Soil microbial biomass is a critical factor in ecosystem nutrient cycling [16,17,18], and knowledge about its relation with the ecological stoichiometry of soil is crucial for us to gain insight into the nutrient cycling of terrestrial ecosystems [19,20,21,22]. 2001;30:2206–9. The total C and N in the soil were determined using a Vario Max C&N analyzer (Elemental Ltd., UK). The highest content of soil MBP was in the bottom slope of C. coggygria Scop (19.0 mg/kg), and the lowest was in the shady top slope of Q. variabilis (16.5 mg/kg). Managing soil to sequester C can help mitigate increasing CO 2 in the atmosphere. 1990;22:1167–9. The extractant of P was transferred to a 96 microwell plate, and the content of P was measured by the ammonium molybdate-malachite green method [36]. 2000;30:1–67. Glob Ecol Biogeogr. At 10–20 cm, there was no significant difference in the soil microbial biomass C contents of the three tree species (p > 0.05). Wu,1,2 Terry L. Marsh, Robert V. O’Neill, 1Anthony V.

The influence of bacterial metabolic traits on this control has however received little attention in highly heterogeneous spatial conditions under advective dispersive transport of bacteria and substrates. The mass ratio is often used in terrestrial ecosystem research [37], while the molar ratio is often used in aquatic ecology research; thus, the former was adopted for the stoichiometric ratios of C, N and P of soil and microbial biomass. The factors are: 1. Effects of environmental factors (topography, tree species and soil layers) on soil and microbial biomass stoichiometry according to redundancy analysis. Nature of Organic Materials 2.Soil Moisture 3.Temperature 4. The soil type is mainly brown soil, according to the soil classification criteria enacted by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the People’s Republic of China [29]. Tree species also have a significant impact on soil MBC:MBN and MBC:MBP (Fig. Soil-Plant Interactions. However, our study found that tree species had an impact on soil MBC:MBN and MBC:MBP but no impact on soil MBN:MBP. Wu,1,2 Terry L. Marsh, Robert V. O’Neill, 1Anthony V. Palumbo, and James M. Tiedje2 Environmental Sciences Division, Oak Ridge National … Six slope positions (sunny bottom slope, sunny middle slope, sunny top slope, shady bottom slope, shady middle slope, and shady top slope) were selected, and the total number of sampling plots was 108. There was a very significant correlation between the soil C, N and P contents and the soil MBC, MBN and MBP contents. Microsoft Excel 2010 was used for experimental data sorting and plotting. Patel K, Kumar NJI, Kumar NR, et al. Different tree species have different litter yields and physicochemical properties, and the amount of nutrient content returned to soil may also vary [40]. [10] studied a vegetation restoration area in the Loess Plateau, China, and found that nutrient limitation could be determined by soil microbial biomass N:P. In addition, plants display homeostasis, and a “Redfield-like ratio” is present in plants; as influenced by climate change and the biogeographic gradient of soil matrix age, the N:P ratio in plant leaves gradually increases from areas of high latitude to areas of low latitude [11]. Tree species and topography have significant impacts on the ecological stoichiometry of soil and soil microbial biomass, and soil microbes have homeostasis.
