Abstract

Microbial necromass carbon (MNC) is an important fraction of soil organic carbon (SOC) as it contributes to the long-term stable SOC pool. However, the effect of long-term straw return on MNC and its contribution to SOC accumulation across different soil types and soil depths remains insufficiently understood in agricultural ecosystems. By conducting a decadal scale field experiment across four soil types, long-term straw return was shown to increase SOC by 6%–109% and MNC by 3%–173% (except for the top 20 cm of Chernozem). MNC significantly increased only in the 0–40 cm of Phaeozem and 0–80 cm of Arenosol. The contribution of MNC to SOC increased significantly in the 0–40 cm layer of Phaeozem but remained almost unchanged in Chernozem, Lixisol, and Arenosol. Fungal necromass C (FNC) contributed significantly more to MNC accumulation than bacterial necromass C (BNC), comprising over 70% of MNC across all four soils. Mantel and Random Forest analyses revealed that microbial and soil properties positively influence MNC accumulation, with higher fungal phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) levels strongly linked to increased MNC content. The results indicate that edaphic variables regulate MNC through FNC. Our study demonstrates the changes in profile distribution of MNC following long-term straw return across four soil types and explores the divergent regulatory pathways of edaphic factors on MNC via FNC and BNC, which could contribute to the regulation of SOC accumulation in cropping soils.

长期秸秆还田后4种土壤类型微生物坏死团碳分布差异
微生物坏死物碳(MNC)是土壤有机碳(SOC)的重要组成部分,对土壤有机碳库的长期稳定起着重要作用。然而,在农业生态系统中,长期秸秆还田对跨国公司的影响及其对不同土壤类型和土壤深度土壤有机碳积累的贡献尚不清楚。通过四种土壤类型的年代际尺度田间试验,秸秆长期还田可使土壤有机碳增加6% ~ 109%,有机质含量增加3% ~ 173%(黑钙土表层20 cm除外)。MNC仅在Phaeozem 0 ~ 40 cm和Arenosol 0 ~ 80 cm显著增加。在黑钙土0 ~ 40 cm土层中,有机质对有机碳的贡献显著增加,而在黑钙土、利西索尔土和阿雷诺索尔土中几乎没有变化。真菌坏死团C (FNC)对MNC积累的贡献显著大于细菌坏死团C (BNC),占所有4种土壤中MNC的70%以上。Mantel和Random Forest分析显示,微生物和土壤特性对MNC的积累有积极影响,真菌磷脂脂肪酸(PLFA)水平的升高与MNC含量的增加密切相关。结果表明,土壤变量通过FNC调节MNC。本研究揭示了秸秆长期还田后4种土壤类型中土壤有机碳的剖面分布变化,并探讨了土壤因子通过FNC和BNC对土壤有机碳的不同调控途径,这可能有助于调节作物土壤有机碳的积累。
