Abstract

To screen efficient microbial coating formulations and explore their effects on the growth of alfalfa and soil properties, ‘Gannong No. 3’ alfalfa was used as the experimental material. A single-factor randomized block field experiment was conducted with eight treatments (CK as bare seeds, BC as adhesive filler coated agent, J1-J3 as rhizobium agent, growth-promoting bacteria agent, and rhizobium plus growth-promoting bacteria seed soaking, respectively, B1-B3 as rhizobium, growth-promoting bacteria, and rhizobium plus growth-promoting bacteria coating agents, respectively). This study analyzes the effects of different microbial coating formulations on alfalfa, including its production performance and nutritional quality, as well as on soil properties. Comprehensive analysis shows that the growth-promoting microbial coating (B2) is the optimal formulation. It can simultaneously optimize alfalfa production performance, enhance nutritional quality, improve soil particle composition, and increase soil enzyme activity, achieving a synergistic improvement of both alfalfa and the soil ecosystem. Its application effect is significantly better than other treatments and can provide important theoretical support and practical reference for the development and application of efficient microbial seed coatings in high-quality alfalfa cultivation.

微生物包衣剂对苜蓿生产性能、营养品质、土壤粒度和土壤酶活性的影响

为筛选高效微生物包衣配方，探讨其对苜蓿生长和土壤性质的影响，以甘农3号苜蓿为试验材料。采用单因素随机区块田间试验，采用8个处理（CK为裸种，BC为胶粘剂包衣剂，j1 ~ j3为根瘤菌剂、促生菌剂、根瘤菌加促生菌浸种剂，b1 ~ b3为根瘤菌、促生菌、根瘤菌加促生菌包衣剂）。本研究分析了不同微生物包衣配方对紫花苜蓿生产性能、营养品质及土壤性质的影响。综合分析表明，促生长微生物包被（B2）是最佳配方。可同时优化苜蓿生产性能，提高营养品质，改善土壤颗粒组成，提高土壤酶活性，实现苜蓿与土壤生态系统的协同改善。其施用效果明显优于其他处理，可为高效微生物包衣在优质苜蓿栽培中的开发和应用提供重要的理论支持和实践参考。
