Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of organic fertilizer mineralization detection technology, specifically relating to a method for detecting the nitrogen mineralization characteristics of organic materials and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Soil nitrogen mainly exists in the form of organic nitrogen. In the application of organic and inorganic fertilizers, the nitrogen in the organic fertilizer is also primarily organic nitrogen, which typically needs to be mineralized and decomposed by microorganisms into inorganic nitrogen before being absorbed and utilized by crops. Therefore, analyzing the mineralization process of organic nitrogen is of great significance for gaining a deeper understanding of soil nitrogen supply potential and the nitrogen cycle, and for fully realizing the yield-increasing benefits of organic fertilizers.
[0003] Mineralization, as a crucial pathway for organic nitrogen to participate in the nitrogen cycle, has long been a focus of attention. The mineralization rate of organic nitrogen directly relates to the soil nitrogen turnover rate and productivity level. Studies have shown that the organic nitrogen mineralization process is not only closely related to soil properties such as soil temperature, moisture, pH, and SOC content, but also influenced by various factors such as fertilizer type and application rate. Fertilization can alter soil physicochemical properties, microbial activity, and aggregate structure, thereby affecting the nitrogen mineralization process and consequently influencing soil nitrogen supply and crop yield, especially when inorganic and organic fertilizers are applied in combination. A reasonable combination of organic and inorganic fertilizers can improve the soil organic nitrogen mineralization rate, enhance soil nitrogen supply, and promote crop growth and development. Previous nitrogen mineralization experiments have mostly focused on the mineralization of soil nitrogen after fertilization; research on the mineralization of organic fertilizers themselves in the soil is limited, and their nitrogen supply characteristics, supply potential, and mineralization mechanisms remain unclear, requiring further investigation.
[0004] Currently, various methods have been developed for detecting the nitrogen mineralization characteristics of organic materials, mainly divided into indoor culture methods and field in-situ culture methods. Among indoor culture methods, non-leaching aeration culture and undisturbed soil column culture can maintain the integrity of soil structure, but the accumulation of mineral nitrogen in the system can interfere with the subsequent organic nitrogen mineralization process, leading to an underestimation of the organic nitrogen mineralization potential. Intermittent leaching aeration culture, by simulating the absorption and removal of mineral nitrogen by plants, is suitable for rapid determination of large numbers of samples and can eliminate the influence of mineralized nitrogen accumulation, making it widely used. However, this method damages soil structure and changes aeration conditions, which can easily lead to an overestimation of the organic nitrogen mineralization potential. Among in-situ field culture methods, the polyethylene bag culture method is the most widely used, but it has the problem of being impermeable to water, which cannot truly reflect the field moisture conditions. Moreover, sampling damages the soil structure, and soil animals and plant roots may damage the culture bag during the culture process, leading to the loss of mineralized nitrogen. Although the top-cover buried tube culture method overcomes the defects of impermeability and easy damage of polyethylene bags, it still cannot avoid the loss of mineralized nitrogen. The ion exchange resin core method can be used to cultivate without damaging the original soil condition, and it is sensitive to soil temperature, humidity and aeration conditions. It can eliminate the impact of mineralized nitrogen accumulation. However, the operation process is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and ion competition and resin adsorption saturation point must be considered in advance.
[0005] Current research faces numerous challenges in determining the nitrogen mineralization characteristics of organic materials. On the one hand, different detection methods have limitations, making it difficult to accurately reflect the actual mineralization situation and limiting their guidance for the rational application of organic fertilizers in agricultural production. On the other hand, many factors influence the nitrogen mineralization of organic materials, such as organic fertilizer characteristics (C / N ratio, carbon and nitrogen compound composition, degree of maturity, etc.), temperature, moisture, and soil texture. These factors are intertwined, making it difficult for existing research to comprehensively consider them and construct accurate models for predicting the nitrogen mineralization characteristics of organic materials, thus failing to meet the needs of agricultural production in different regions. Therefore, developing a more accurate and efficient method for detecting the nitrogen mineralization characteristics of organic materials that can comprehensively consider multiple factors and overcome the shortcomings of existing methods has become a key issue that urgently needs to be addressed in this field.

Place the tube in the HDPE bottle, seal the bottle, and incubate at 40℃ for 7–10 days. Ammonium ions in the water are converted into ammonia gas. The ammonia gas reacts with the NaHSO4 solution in the filter membrane to form sulfate, which is fixed by the filter membrane. Afterward, remove the filter membrane and place it in a desiccator containing desiccant and concentrated sulfuric acid. After 2 days, remove the membrane, wrap it in a foil cup, and insert the wrapped sample into an elemental analyzer (Vario PYRO cube, Elementar GmbH, Germany) via an autosampler. The sample is converted into pure CO2 and N2 gases through combustion and reduction (combustion furnace temperature 1020℃, reduction furnace temperature 650℃, carrier gas He flow rate 230 mL·min). -1 The CO2 was then diluted using a diluent and finally analyzed using a stable isotope mass spectrometer (IsoPrime 100, Isoprime, UK). One laboratory standard sample (δ¹²) was placed between every 12 samples. 15 N air =7.1‰), used for quality control of measurement results. Results are corrected using a two-point calibration. That is, using USGS40 (δ) 15 N air =-4.52‰) and USGS41a(δ 15 N air =+47.55‰) to correct the nitrogen determination results.
[0047] The above measurement process was conducted by the Institute of Agricultural Environment and Sustainable Development, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences. The net mineralization rate of nitrogen in organic materials was then calculated using the following formula: Organic materials 15 N - Net mineralization rate = Mixed sample 15 N - Net nitrification rate + Mixed sample 15 N-net ammoniation rate, in which mixed samples 15 Net nitrification rate (mg·kg) -1 ·d 1 )=[c(NO3 --15 N) i+1 -c(NO3) --15 N) i ] / (t i+1 -t i ), mixed samples 15 Net ammoniation rate of N- (mg·kg) -1 ·d 1 )=[c(NH4+-15 N) i+1 -c(NH4) +-15 N) i ] / (t i+1 -t i In the formula, i is the number of samples, and t is the sampling time; t i+1 -t i This represents the number of days between two consecutive samplings.
[0048] Example 3
[0049] The culture experiment was set up with 8 treatments: (1) no fertilizer (NF); (2) labeled urea ( 15 F); (3) Marking corn stalks ( 15 S)(same as Example 1); (4) Marking chicken manure organic fertilizer ( 15 M)(same as Example 2); (5) Mark corn stalks + urea ( 15 S+F); (6) Mark chicken manure organic fertilizer + urea ( 15 M+F); (7) Corn stalks + labeled urea (S+ 15 F); (8) Chicken manure organic fertilizer + labeled urea (M+ 15 F). Each treatment was replicated 12 times, and samples were taken at 4 time points. Before the experiment, the soil moisture of the treated soil was adjusted to 60% of field capacity. The soil was then mixed with the above groups and incubated in the dark at 25°C for 7 days to activate microorganisms and eliminate the wet-dry effect.
[0050] Mixed samples were collected on days 5, 14, 28, and 42. Three samples were randomly selected from each treatment. Destructive soil sampling was used to determine the content of nitrate nitrogen and ammonium nitrogen, as well as the concentration of nitrate nitrogen in... 15 N abundance and ammonium nitrogen 15 N abundance, the specific detection method is the same as in Example 1.
[0051] The results are as follows Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown.
[0052] like Figure 1 As shown, compared to 15 Treatment F showed a decrease in soil nitrate nitrogen content with the addition of organic materials (corn stalks and chicken manure organic fertilizer), and except for 15 Except for treatment S, there were no significant differences among the fertilization treatments. 15 S treatment significantly reduced soil nitrate nitrogen content; treatment with organic fertilizer combined with chemical fertilizer ( 15 M+F and M+ 15 F) and 15 During the cultivation period, the ammonium nitrogen content in treatment F showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing, and 15 M+F, M+15 F and 15 The ammonium nitrogen content in treatment F was higher than that in the early stage of cultivation. 15 M processing; 15 S+F and S+ 15 The ammonium nitrogen content in treatment F showed a trend of first decreasing, then increasing, and then decreasing again. 15 The ammonium nitrogen content in the S treatment showed an increasing trend during the incubation period. 15 M+F, M+ 15 F, 15 S and 15 S+F processing compared to 15 F significantly reduced nitrate nitrogen - 15 N content, of which M+ 15 F treatment of nitrate nitrogen - 15 N content is higher than 15 M+F processing, while 15 S and 15 S+F treatment of nitrate nitrogen - 15 The lowest N content; 15 M+F, 15 M and 15 S processing compared to 15 F significantly increased ammonium nitrogen- 15 N content, of which 15 M+F treatment of ammonium nitrogen 15 The nitrogen content showed a decreasing trend during cultivation, while 15 S and 15 Treatment M showed an increasing trend. Overall, during the incubation period, the contents of nitrate nitrogen and ammonium nitrogen in the soil fluctuated among the treatments. 15 M+F and 15 S treatment reduced nitrate nitrogen - 15 N content, but can increase ammonium nitrogen - 15 N content, treatment with organic materials alone ( 15 S and 15 M) Ammonium nitrogen- 15 The nitrogen content showed an increasing trend.
[0053] like Figure 2 As shown, soil 15 N- net nitrification rate is higher than 15 N-net ammoniation rate, with different organic materials added 15 N-Net nitrification rate and 15 The trends in the net N-ammonization rate varied among the treatments, but the differences between the treatments were significant. 15 N-net mineralization rate and 15 The net nitrification rate of N- shows a similar trend. Compared to 15 F-treatment, combined with organic material treatment (S+) 15 F and M+ 15F) both reduced the early stage (day 5) and late stage (day 42) of culture. 15 N- Net nitrification and mineralization rate, M+ 15 Treatment F improved the results on days 14 and 28. 15 N-Net nitrification, mineralization rate, and day 5 15 N-net ammoniation rate; 15 S and 15 S+F treatment soil 15 There was no significant difference in net nitrification and mineralization rates, except on day 5. 15 S processing 15 The net ammonification rate of N- was higher than that of all other processes. 15 S+F processing; compared to 15 M processing, 15 M+F processing 15 The net nitrification and mineralization rates decreased on day 5 and increased on days 14 and 28, while... 15 The net ammonification rate of N- is opposite. Generally speaking, the combined application of organic fertilizer and chemical fertilizer (M+) 15 F) processing compared to 15 F treatment improved the condition on days 14 and 28. 15 N-Net nitrification and mineralization rate, single application of straw ( 15 S) or apply organic fertilizer alone ( 15 M) treatment compared to the combined application of organic and inorganic fertilizers ( 15 S+F, 15 M+F) improved the 14th, 28th and 42nd days. 15 N-net ammoniation rate.
