Long-Term Organic Fertilization Strengthens the Soil Phosphorus Cycle and Phosphorus Availability by Regulating the pqqC- and phoD-Harboring Bacterial Communities. MICROBIAL ECOLOGY 2023; 86:2716-2732. [PMID: 37528183 DOI: 10.1007/s00248-023-02279-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2023] [Accepted: 07/26/2023] [Indexed: 08/03/2023]
Abstract
The pqqC and phoD genes encode pyrroloquinoline quinone synthase and alkaline phosphomonoesterase (ALP), respectively. These genes play a crucial role in regulating the solubilization of inorganic phosphorus (Pi) and the mineralization of organic phosphorus (Po), making them valuable markers for P-mobilizing bacterial. However, there is limited understanding of how the interplay between soil P-mobilizing bacterial communities and abiotic factors influences P transformation and availability in the context of long-term fertilization scenarios. We used real-time polymerase chain reaction and high-throughput sequencing to explore the characteristics of soil P-mobilizing bacterial communities and their relationships with key physicochemical properties and P fractions under long-term fertilization scenarios. In a 38-year fertilization experiment, six fertilization treatments were selected. These treatments were sorted into three groups: the non-P-amended group, including no fertilization and mineral NK fertilizer; the sole mineral-P-amended group, including mineral NP and NPK fertilizer; and the organically amended group, including sole organic fertilizer and organic fertilizer plus mineral NPK fertilizer. The organically amended group significantly increased soil labile P (Ca2-P and enzyme-P) and Olsen-P content and proportion but decreased non-labile P (Ca10-P) proportion compared with the sole mineral-P-amended group, indicating enhanced P availability in the soil. Meanwhile, the organically amended group significantly increased soil ALP activity and pqqC and phoD gene abundances, indicating that organic fertilization promotes the activity and abundance of microorganisms involved in P mobilization processes. Interestingly, the organically amended group dramatically reshaped the community structure of P-mobilizing bacteria and increased the relative abundance of Acidiphilium, Panacagrimonas, Hansschlegelia, and Beijerinckia. These changes had a greater positive impact on ALP activity, labile P, and Olsen-P content compared to the abundance of P-mobilizing genes alone, indicating their importance in driving P mobilization processes. Structural equation modeling indicated that soil organic carbon and Po modulated the relationship between P-mobilizing bacterial communities and labile P and Olsen-P, highlighting the influence of SOC and Po on the functioning of P-mobilizing bacteria and their impact on P availability. Overall, our study demonstrates that organic fertilization has the potential to reshape the structure of P-mobilizing bacterial communities, leading to increased P mobilization and availability in the soil. These findings contribute to our understanding of the mechanisms underlying P cycling in agricultural systems and provide valuable insights for enhancing microbial P mobilization through organic fertilization.

JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2023; 345:118568. [PMID: 37421718 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2023.118568] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2023] [Revised: 06/30/2023] [Accepted: 07/01/2023] [Indexed: 07/10/2023]
Abstract
Phosphate fertilizers have been excessively applied in agricultural production, bringing the risk of phosphorus (P) loss to nearby river systems and low utilization efficiency. In this study, eggshell-modified biochars prepared by pyrolysis of eggshell and corn straw or pomelo peel were applied to soil for enhancing P immobilization and utilization. The structure and properties of modified biochars before and after P adsorption were analyzed using the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) nitrogen adsorption method, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The eggshell-modified biochar performed an excellent adsorption performance for P (up to 200 mg/g), which was well described by the Langmuir model (R2 > 0.969), showing monolayer chemical adsorption with homogenous surface. The Ca(OH)2 appeared on the surface of eggshell modified biochars and changed to Ca5(PO4)3(OH) and CaHPO4(H2O)2 after P adsorption. The release of immobilized P by modified biochar increased with decreased pH. In addition, pot experiments of soybean indicated that the combined application of modified biochar and P fertilizer significantly increased the content of microbial biomass P in soil, raising from 4.18 mg/kg (control group) to 51.6-61.8 mg/kg (treatment group), and plants height increased by 13.8-26.7%. Column leaching experiments showed that P concentration in the leachate decreased by 97.9% with the modified biochar application. This research provides a new perspective that the eggshell-modified biochar could serve as a potential soil amendment for enhancing P immobilization and utilization.

Distribution of Phosphorus Fractions in Orchard Soils in Relation to Soil Properties and Foliar P Contents. SUSTAINABILITY 2022.

Abstract
Phosphorus (P) fractionation is the validation of the nature, solubility and relative bioavailability of P. A sequential P extraction was used to determine the distribution of plant-available P fractions in soils. The relationships of these P fractions to soil properties and foliar P contents were also determined. Results of this study showed substantial differences in soil properties among orchards. Higher amounts of soil organic matter (SOM), cation exchange capacity (CEC) and major plant nutrients were found under orchard soils when compared with control soil. Most of the soil variables varied among orchard species as loquat > citrus > guava. The orchard soil exhibited a slightly higher soil pH. Overall, the P fractions were higher in all types of orchard soils and lowered in the control soils. Among tree species, P fractions in soils were achieved as loquat > citrus > guava. The extracting agents differed for P in the order residual P > HCl-P > NaOH-P > NaHCO3-P > H2O-P. Mostly higher amounts of the P fractions were achieved in the topsoil. The average amount of extractable P was found significantly higher in those soils of fruit orchards where the total amount of P was actually higher. The higher r2 values between P fractions versus SOM, clay and CEC of soils predicted a strong interrelationship among these soil variables. Leaf N contents of loquat and guava trees were consistently higher, and leaf P contents varied as loquat > citrus > guava. Potassium and Ca contents were higher in citrus than in the other two species. Micronutrients were found as Fe > Zn > Mn > Cu in the leaves. Regression models indicated a sufficient relationship between Hedley P fractions and the foliar P contents in tree species. This study indicates that the above soil properties can be used to ascertain soil P fractions, and that can influence the bioavailability of P from orchard soils.

JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2021; 101:4523-4531.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Phosphorus (P) is an essential mineral nutrient for crop growth and development. Much remains unknown regarding the content and distribution of P forms in different soil aggregates as affected by tillage practices. A 3-year field experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of no-tillage (NT), rotary tillage (RT), subsoiling (SS), and deep tillage (DT) on soil aggregate distribution pattern, aggregate-associated P content, and to understand the conversion trend. RESULTS Tillage has the potential to accelerate the processes in transforming macro-aggregates (> 0.25 mm) into micro-aggregates (< 0.25 mm). Greatest aggregate stability was attained under RT. Total phosphorus (TP) and available phosphorus (AP) under NT were increased by 21.1-82.0% in contrast to other tillage treatments. The NT had high content in inorganic phosphorus (IP), aluminum phosphorus (Al-P), and iron phosphorus (Fe-P) with 416.7, 107.9, and 99.1 mg·kg-1 on average, respectively. Aggregates with a size dimension of < 2 mm were more sensitive than other sizes of aggregates. IP was evenly distributed throughout all aggregates, ranging from 336.3 to 430.6 mg kg-1 . No differences in organic phosphorus (OP) were found in all tillage treatments, while NT promoted the transformation of labile OP to IP. The AP and OP were generally more abundant in aggregates of 2 to 0.25 mm and < 0.25 mm. CONCLUSION Short-term NT can improve soil structure and increase P reserves, thus, enhancing the conversion of P from being scarce to available. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Short-chain polyphosphate fertilizers have been increasingly applied in agriculture, but little is known about the chemical behaviors of polyphosphate in soils. Herein, a cylinder experiment was carried out to investigate the influences of different P types (i.e., mono-ammonium phosphate (MAP), phosphoric acid (PA) and ammonium polyphosphate (poly-P)) and their application methods (single vs split) on the mobility and availability of P in soil through a column millimeter-scale slice cutting method; meanwhile a soil microcosm experiment (560-day) was conducted to investigate the effects of different P types on phosphorus dynamic transformation. Polyphosphate addition significantly increased P mobility. The average distance of P downward movement (81.5 mm) in soil profile in the poly-P application treatment increased by 33.6% and 81.1%, respectively, compared to the MAP and PA treatments. Different P application methods also markedly influenced phosphorus mobility. For instance, the average distance of P vertical movement in the split P application treatment was 21.2% higher than in the single application treatment, indicating that split P addition significantly increased P downward movement. Moreover, polyphosphate application decreased soil P fixation by blocking the transformation of the applied-P from labile to recalcitrant forms (HCl-P and residual-P). Overall, our findings provide meaningful information to current phosphorus fertilization practice in increasing soil P mobility and bioavailability. We suggest that polyphosphate could be regarded as an alternative P source used in agriculture, and split polyphosphate application is recommended as an effective P fertilization strategy.

Abstract
In recent years, the biomass was directly used extensively in agriculture due to its low cost and convenience. Increasingly serious soil pollution of heavy metals may pose threats and risks to human health. Directly addition of biomass to soil may affect the bioavailability and content of heavy metals. Here, we reviewed the impact of direct application of oil cake, manure, sewage sludge, straw and municipal waste to soil on the form and concentration of heavy metals in soil, and also emphasized the role of biomass in soil heavy metals remediation. Heavy metals can be activated in a short term by the content of heavy metals in biomass, the production of low-molecular-weight organic acids by biomass application, and the oxidation of sulfides (except for ammoniation). However, heavy metals in soil can be immobilized by humic substances. These can be produced by biomass during a long-term application to soil. Moreover, the degree of immobilization depended on the kind of biomass. Biomass contaminated by heavy metals cannot be returned to the field directly. Therefore, Mitigating the activation of heavy metals in the early stage of biomass application is meaningful, especially for application of these biomass such as straw, sewage sludge and municipal waste. Future researches should focus on the heavy metal control on direct use of biomass in agricultural.

Abstract
Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is an important forage legume in arid areas, but limited water resources and low fertilizer utilization have restricted its agricultural development. Meanwhile, studies on the effects of integrated water and phosphorus on production performance and water-use efficiency and phosphorus-use efficiency of alfalfa, especially on hay yield, phosphorus accumulation, and total phosphorus uptake are rarely reported under drip irrigation. The treatments were a factorial combination of three irrigation rates (5,250, 6,000, and 6,750 m3/ha per year) and four P rates (0, 50, 100, and 150 kg/ha per year) and consisted of 12 treatments for water and P management, arranged in a randomized complete block design with three replicates. Total hay yield and water-use efficiency and phosphorus-use efficiency of alfalfa in P2 treatment were significantly greater than those in the P1 and P3 treatments (p < .05), and the total hay yield of alfalfa with phosphorus application increased by 7.43%-29.87% compared with that in the nonphosphorus (P0) treatment under the same irrigation amount. The total phosphorus and available phosphorus concentrations in the 0-20 cm soil layer were greater than those in the 20-40 cm and 40-60 cm soil layers compared with those in the P0 treatment. Correlation analyses showed that total hay yield was significantly positively correlated with total phosphorus uptake and water-use efficiency (p < .01). The accumulated phosphorus concentration was significantly positively correlated with total phosphorus and available phosphorus concentration (p < .01) and was positively correlated with the phosphorus-use efficiency (p < .05). The membership function method was used to evaluate all the indicators, and the three treatments that had the greatest influence on the production performance of alfalfa were, in order, W2P2 > W3P2 > W1P2. Therefore, an irrigation rate of 6,000 m3/ha and a phosphorus application rate of 100 kg/ha per year should be considered as the best management for both high yield and water-use efficiency and phosphorus-use efficiency of alfalfa.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The PHOSPHATE1 (PHO1) gene family plays diverse roles in inorganic phosphate (Pi) transfer and signal transduction, and plant development. However, the functions and diversification of soybean PHO1 family are poorly understood. RESULTS Cultivated soybean (Glycine max) was domesticated from wild soybean (Glycine soja). To illuminate their roles in this evolutionary process, we comparatively investigated the G. max PHO1 genes (GmPHO1) in Suinong 14 (SN14) and G. soja PHO1 genes (GsPHO1) in ZYD00006 (ZYD6). The sequences of the orthologous Gm-GsPHO1 pairs were grouped into two Classes. The expression of Class I in both SN14 and ZYD6 was widely but relatively high in developing fruits, whereas Class II was predominantly expressed in the roots. The whole family displayed diverse response patterns to salt stresses and Pi-starvation in roots. Between SN14 and ZYD6, most PHO1 genes responded similarly to salinity stresses, and half had sharp contrasts in response to Pi-starvation, which corroborated the differential response capacities to salinity and low-Pi stress between SN14 and ZYD6. Furthermore, in transgenic Arabidopsis plants, most Class II members and GmPHO1;H9 from Class I could enhance salt tolerance, while only two Class II genes (GmPHO1;H4 and GmPHO1;H8) differently altered sensitivity to Pi-starvation. The expression of critical genes was accordingly altered in either salt or Pi signaling pathways in transgenic Arabidopsis plants. CONCLUSIONS Our work identifies some PHO1 genes as promising genetic materials for soybean improvement, and suggests that expression variation is decisive to functional divergence of the orthologous Gm-GsPHO1 pairs, which plays an adaptive role during soybean evolution.

Abstract
Surplus phosphorus (P) above agronomic requirements can negatively affect the water status of connected surface and subsurface water bodies. The in situ stabilization of soil P through soil amendment has been recognized as an efficient way to reduce this environmental pressure. However, the mechanism of how P is stabilized during this process and how plant available P is affected are unknown. This can be achieved by sequential chemical extraction and synchrotron-based X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy investigations. Therefore, in the present study, P-enriched calcareous and red soils were amended with alum, dolomite, and a 1:1 mixture of alum and dolomite (MAD) at a 20 g/kg soil rate, and soil properties and P fractions were measured after a 45-day period. Results showed that alum amendment significantly decreased CaCl2-P and Olsen-P contents in calcareous and red soils when compared with dolomite. However, dolomite incorporation maintained relatively high P availability and even increased CaCl2-P and Olsen-P contents by 1.32% and 40.5% in red soil, respectively, compared to control. Amendment with MAD was not as effectively as the alum in P stabilization. Sequential inorganic P extraction indicated that alum dominantly contributed labile P transformed to Al-P in both soils. P K-edge XANES spectroscopy measurements further explained that alum adsorbed phosphate in calcareous soil and precipitated phosphate as AlPO4 in red soil. Results of P fractionation and Mehlich-3-extracted Ca showed that dolomite mainly adsorbed loosely bound P in calcareous soil and red soil. However, dolomite incorporation in red soil led to Al-P and Fe-P release. The P sorption isotherms showed that dolomite and alum increased soil P sorption maxima and decreased the degree of P saturation (DPS) in both soils, while dolomite declined the Langmuir bonding energy in red soil. Differences in P stabilization by alum and dolomite addition across soil types were closely related to their characteristics, and soil properties changed, especially soil pH.

Abstract
The Guapimirim estuary is the main tributary of Guanabara bay and is located in the northeast portion. Although it is protected, this estuary has been experiencing strong anthropogenic pressure, which has led to changes in the natural characteristics. Large amounts of sewage are dumped into the bay through tributaries, thereby changing the water and bottom sediment quality. One of the main elements of sewage is phosphorus. Despite its importance to life, a high concentration of this nutrient in the environment can result in eutrophication. This work describes the phosphorus distribution in its different fractions in the bottom sediment at 16 stations located in the main channel of the Guapimirim estuary. These results are correlated with data on grain size, organic matter and calcium carbonate content in the bottom sediment and with physicochemical parameters of the bottom water. The grain size decreases toward the mouth of the estuary, whereas the organic matter and carbonate content increase. The salinity increases significantly at 3.5 km upstream from the mouth, where there is also a notable increase in fine sediments; the same site is the mean position of the salinity front. The temperature and pH increase in the same direction. The Pinorg-total ranges between 3.18 and 7.13 µmol g−1, increasing toward the mouth. The same trend is observed for the other phosphorus fractions P-Ca, P-Fe and P-f.a., which range from 0.68 to 1.91, 0.79 to 1.71 and 0.03 to 0.93 µmol g−1, respectively. The P-Ca and P-Fe fractions are the most representative in the Pinorg-total, occurring at 26.3 and 26.0 %, respectively.

Abstract
Fractionation of soil phosphorus (P) can provide useful information for assessing the risk of soil P as the potential sources of eutrophication in aquatic systems. Little information exists on P forms in paddy soils of Isfahan Province in central Iran, where P fertilizers have been continuously applied for at least 45 years. The objectives of this study were to investigate concentrations and proportions of P forms in paddy soils and correlate the content of P forms with basic soil properties. Soil samples from three paddy sites were obtained, and soil P forms were determined by a modified Hedley fraction method. Results show that the total P concentrations ranged from 288 to 850 mg kg(-1) and were enriched in site 1. In all sites, the rank order of P fractions was HCl-P (CARB-P) > residual-P (RES-P) > NaOH-P (Fe-Al-P) > KCl-P (EXCH-P), indicating that Ca compounds are the main soil components contributing to P retention in these calcareous paddy soils. The EXCH-P represented on average < 1 % of the total P, while the Fe-Al-P ranged 3.3-18 %. The CARB-P showed considerable contribution (63.6-85.6 %) to the total P. The Pearson correlation matrix indicated that Fe-Al-P only was positively correlated with total P, but did not show any significant correlations with other soil geochemical properties. Calcium-bound P fraction was significantly correlated with the clay, silt, cation exchange capacity, and total P.
