Most of the countermeasures were developed to mitigate the RCs transfer from the soil to plants. However, to avoid what has happened after the Chernobyl and Mayak accidents, preventing the transfer of RSr from soil to plants should be a priority. Although the application of potassium (K) fertilizers is the most effective method for preventing agricultural crops from absorbing RCs in contaminated fields, this implementation increases the cost and labor requirements. Considering the preparedness for nuclear accidents, it remains unclear how this countermeasure will be affected if RCs and RSr are released simultaneously. We aimed to explore the effect of K applications on cesium (Cs) and strontium (Sr) uptake and their interaction with and correlation to other elements in the soybean plants and soil. The field experiments were conducted in Fukushima Prefecture, Japan, using different K applications (i.e., no, normal, and high K applications). The dry weight and mineral concentrations of K, Cs, Sr, calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and nitrogen (N) concentration in plants and exchangeable K (ExK), exchangeable Cs (ExCs), exchangeable Sr (ExSr), exchangeable Ca (ExCa), exchangeable Mg (ExMg), NH4+ (ammonium), and NO3- (nitrate) concentrations in the soils were evaluated. This study revealed that K application reduced Cs, Ca, and Mg uptake but did not affect the ExSr, ExCa, and ExMg concentrations in the soil and did not change the uptake of Sr. On the other hand, K concentration of the plant especially at later growth stage, which indicates re-translocation of Sr was negatively regulated by K concentration.","PeriodicalId":21852,"journal":{"name":"Soil Science and Plant Nutrition","volume":"2 1","pages":"88 - 98"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80908913","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examined spatial relationships between variations in peach tree properties and soil properties around each tree and assessed the possibility of site-specific field management for individual trees in a newly reclaimed orchard. Three and four years after reclamation in 2016, the 0.1-ha field located in Kyoto, Japan was divided into 32 grid cells at 5-m intervals for all individual peach trees and 128 grid cells at 2.5-m intervals for measuring soil properties around each tree (field scale). The 128 grid cells were each further divided into five positions at 0.71-m intervals for assessing selected soil properties (grid-cell scale). The soil data were geostatistically analyzed by calculating the nugget/sill ratios and anisotropy ratios (degree of variation in relation to direction) and drawing kriged maps. Coefficients of variation of soil properties at the grid-cell scale were much higher than those at the field scale. Pearson’s correlation analysis at the field scale indicated that the tree productivity was most strongly correlated with relative altitude, followed by the degree of soil reduction, time-domain reflectometry electrical conductivity (TDR-EC), subsoil pH (H2O), and TDR-volumetric water content. Tree productivity tended to be lower at lower elevations, where the degree of soil reduction, TDR-EC, subsoil pH (H2O), and soil water content tended to be high. Poor productivity appeared to be related to wet injury. Semivariograms of the soil properties related to soil water showed strong spatial dependence and had nugget/sill ratios of ≤24.0%. Kriged maps and anisotropy ratios further indicated that most tree property values decreased from southeast to northwest and showed variations similar to those of the soil properties related to soil water. Fine-scale mapping of soil properties in the orchard could reveal spatial soil-property variations around individual peach trees, and the result would imply the importance of soil management practices on a per-tree basis. Our findings could help to improve tree productivity in the northwestern area by increasing soil drainage for individual trees.","PeriodicalId":21852,"journal":{"name":"Soil Science and Plant Nutrition","volume":"10 1","pages":"109 - 123"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83408677","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We hypothesized that these two types of parent material make it possible to trace alluvial processes by analyzing their spatial distribution based on soil physicochemical properties. We collected 101 soil samples from the alluvial plain and nine soil samples from two types of unmixed upstream areas, i.e., granite and mélange. Particle size distributions and total concentrations of 32 elements were analyzed for spatial variabilities. Elemental composition of unmixed upstream samples and isarithmic maps of elemental composition of the soils in the alluvial plain based on geostatistical analysis revealed that gravel, coarse sand and total Na, Al, K, Ca, and Mn concentrations were higher at the southern part close to granite rock areas, whereas silt+clay content and total C, N, Mg, Ti, and Fe concentrations were higher at the northern part close to the mélange area, suggesting strong influence from parent material. In contrast, fine sand content and total P and Si concentrations showed west-east trends, suggesting topography effects reflecting particle size selection. Directional semivariograms suggest coarse sand and silt+clay content, as well as total C, N, Na, Mg, Al, K, Ca, Ti, and Mn concentrations were more strongly affected by parent material, whereas gravel and fine sand and total P concentration were more strongly affected by topography. Accordingly, the combination of elemental composition analysis and geostatistics revealed that the contribution of parent material and topography to total elemental contents in paddy surface soils in the alluvial plain varied among elements. In conclusion, evaluation of the interactive effects of parent material and topography on spatial variability of soil material characteristics enabled better understanding of soil formation processes and their potential fertility.","PeriodicalId":21852,"journal":{"name":"Soil Science and Plant Nutrition","volume":"26 1","pages":"99 - 108"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78602472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We have hypothesized that the infection unit (IU) density formed on test plant roots grown for short period (12 days) with soil sampled from soybean production fields would be an effective indicator to predict AM fungal colonization intensity to the plant. In order to test this hypothesis, three-year farmland survey was conducted, in which soil samples before sowing soybean and the plant root samples at third trifoliate (V3) and full bloom (R2) stage were collected from farmers’ fields in two regions in Hokkaido, Iwamizawa and Tokachi. For each sampling spot, IU density was determined by using test plants, and intensity of AM fungal colonization of soybean root was measured. Before pursuing field survey, laboratory experiments were conducted to find out proper soil storage condition that keeps IU density unchanged while handling many soil samples. Our results indicated that IU density was almost comparable to the original value after six-month storage if soil samples were kept in a refrigerator, although storing at ambient temperature significantly decreased the measurement. Air drying also had negative impact on IU density. According to the field survey, IU densities determined using field soil were positively and significantly correlated with AM fungal colonization of soybean roots at both V3 and R2 stages. Differences in climate, soil type, and style of agriculture between Iwamizawa and Tokachi seemed to have little effect on IU density-AM fungal colonization relationship. Other than IU density, soil pH and soil penetration resistance at 10 cm depth were selected as significant explanatory variables for predicting AM fungal colonization by multiple regression analysis. However, IU density was the most influential factor among three. Therefore, IU density is recognized as an effective measure to evaluate AM fungal colonizing activity in field soil.","PeriodicalId":21852,"journal":{"name":"Soil Science and Plant Nutrition","volume":"56 1","pages":"10 - 18"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90868694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
