Effects of Straw Return and Moisture Condition on Temporal Changes of DOM Composition and Cd Speciation in Polluted Farmland Soil.

ABSTRACT: Straw return can improve soil quality and change the mobility and bioavailability of pollutants in soil. Elevated cadmium (Cd) contents in farmland soils were often reported. However, the impacts of straw-derived dissolved organic matter (DOM) on Cd speciation in soil remain poorly understood. In this study, the effects of straw return and moisture condition on temporal changes of DOM composition and Cd speciation in farmland soils were explored through a laboratory incubation experiment. The humified components of DOM were negatively correlated with exchangeable, carbonate-bound, and Fe-Mn oxide-bound Cd (p < 0.01), while its protein-like component was negatively correlated with residual Cd (p < 0.01). It was found that selected fluorescence parameters could be used to predict temporal changes of Cd geochemical fractions. Straw addition led to increases in soil DOM content during the first three days of the incubation. Flooding should be avoided in the first three days following the straw application to reduce the risk of DOM-facilitated Cd mobilization.

Project description:BackgroundTo promote the decomposition of returned straw, reduce the incidence of soil-borne diseases caused by returned straw, and accelerate the conversion of straw carbon into soil carbon, we inoculated earthworms into fields with returned straw. The earthworms accelerated straw degradation and promoted carbon conversion. However, the impact of externally inoculated earthworms on the farmland soil ecosystem, especially the structure and the function of its microbial community, remains unclear.MethodsWe analyzed the effects of straw return and earthworms on the diversity of fungal populations and the community structure of dominant fungal taxa in soil by quantifying fungal population size and community composition via PCR amplification of internal transcribed spacer genes and 18S rRNA gene sequencing.ResultsThe results showed that earthworm inoculation significantly accelerated the degradation of rice straw and promoted the conversion of straw carbon to soil carbon. Both fungal abundance and α-diversity (Sobs and Shannon indices) were higher in the plots with surface straw but without earthworms than in those inoculated with earthworms and in the CK. Principal component analysis indicated that straw return increased the diversity and the abundance of the fungal community, whereas earthworms inhibited this expansion of the fungal community caused by straw return. Interestingly, the overall differences in fungal community composition were smallest in plots with straw return, while the dominant fungal community features in plots inoculated with earthworms were closer to those of the CK.ConclusionGenerally, straw return stimulated unclassified_K_fungi, Pseudeurotium, and Fusarium with strong cellulolytic ability. In contrast, the abundances of Stachybotrys, unclassified_c_Sordariomycetes, unclassified_f_Lasiosphaeriaceae, and Schizothecium were higher in the plots inoculated with earthworms and in the CK. Furthermore, evolutionary analysis showed that the evolution of soil fungal communities tended to diverge after straw return, and the evolutionary directions of fungal species in the plots inoculated with earthworms were similar to those in the CK.
