Deciphering the crop-soil-enzyme C:N:P stoichiometry nexus: A 5-year study on manure-induced changes in soil phosphorus transformation and release risk.

Abstract
Carbon:nitrogen:phosphorus (C:N:P) stoichiometry plays a vital role in regulating P transformation in agriculture ecosystems. However, the impact of balanced C:N:P stoichiometry in paddy soil, particularly regarding relative soil P transformation, remains unknown. This study explores the response of C:N:P stoichiometry to manure substitution and its regulatory role in soil P transformation, along with the associated release risk to the environment. Based on a 5-year field study, our findings reveal that replacing 30 % of chemical P fertilizer with pig manure (equal total NPK amounts with chemical P fertilizer treatment, named CFM) increased soil total C without altering soil total P, resulting in an elevated soil C:P ratio, despite the homeostasis of crop stoichiometry. This increase promoted microbial diversity and the accumulation of organic P in the soil. The Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria produced lower C:PEEA metabolism together, and enhanced in vivo turnover of P. Additionally, by integrating high-resolution dialysis (HR-Peeper), diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT), DGT-induced fluxes in the soil (DIFS), and sediment P release risk index (SPRRI) models, we observed that, in addition to organic P, CFM simultaneously increased soil Al-P, thereby weakening the diffusion and resupply capacity of P from soil solids to the solution. Consequently, this decrease in P release risk to the environment was demonstrated. Overall, this study establishes a connection between crop-soil-enzyme C:N:P stoichiometry, soil microorganisms, and soil P biogeochemical processes. The study further evaluates the P release risk to the environment, providing a novel perspective on both the direct and indirect effects of manure substitution on soil P cycling.

Abstract
Colloidal phosphorus (P) is an important P form in agricultural runoff and can threaten water quality. However, up to date, there are few effective approaches to mitigate colloidal P pollution. This study investigated the effect of ultraviolet (UV) irradiation on medium-colloidal (MC; 220 nm-450 nm) and fine-colloidal (FC; 3 kDa-220 nm) P in agricultural runoff. Under 24 h of UV irradiation, as the most abundant colloidal P fraction, concentration of total P (TP) in FC consistently decreased by 81.0%, while TP concentration in MC first increased by 74.4% after 3 h and then decreased with irradiation time. At the same time, particulate TP (>450 nm) concentration was found to be increased from 0 to 14.7 μM. However, there were no obvious variations in TP concentrations in FC and MC fractions under dark conditions. In FC fraction, with the decrease of TP, the corresponding concentrations of iron (Fe), aluminum (Al), silicon (Si) declined synchronously, and ferric iron/ferrous iron (Fe(III)/Fe(II)) ratio and organic matter (OM) concentration were reduced as well. These results suggested that P in FC fraction was gradually transformed into particulate P during photoreduction of Fe(III) and photodegradation of OM under UV irradiation. Our study helps to understand the mechanism of the phototransformation of colloidal P, and propose an UV irradiation-based approach to remove colloidal P in agricultural runoff.

Abstract
The impact of drying-rewetting (DRW) cycles on soil phosphorus (P) behavior is well-established; however, its impact on the different-sized colloidal P (CP) in agricultural soils is still unclear. To investigate the effect of DRW events on the mobilization of CP in agricultural soils, and to understand how this impact varies with different DRW cycles and drought intensities, the study explored the role of soil type, CP fractions, and compositions. The concentration of CP was measured in paddy soil and vegetable soil after 3, 6, and 9 DRW cycles of varying intensities. The CP was then fractionated into fine-sized colloids (FC-P; 1-220 nm), medium-sized colloids (MC-P; 220-450 nm), and coarse-sized colloids (CC-P; 450-1000 nm) through soil supernatant filtration. CP accounted for 71.1 % and 55.6 % of water-dispersible colloidal P (<1000 nm) in paddy and vegetable soils, with FC-P constituting the greatest proportion at 50 % and 44 % of CP respectively. The colloidal fraction correlated with organic carbon, aluminum, and iron. DRW cycles did not change the overall distribution of the three CP size fractions. However, they affected the concentration and composition of CP. This study concluded that DRW can have significant implications for nutrient release and water quality in agricultural soils and that maintaining soil moisture at 50 % to 70 % of water-holding capacity could alleviate CP accumulation resulting from DRW cycles.

Abstract
The bioavailability for varied-size phosphorus (P)-binding colloids (Pcoll) especially from external P sources in soil terrestrial ecosystems remains unclear. This study evaluated the differential contribution of various-sized biogas slurry (BS)-derived colloids to plant available P uptake in the rhizosphere and the corresponding patterns of phosphatase response. Keeping the same content of total P input (15 mg kg-1), we applied different size-fractioned BS-derived colloids including nanosized colloids (NCs, 1-20 nm), fine-sized colloids (FCs, 20-220 nm), and medium-sized colloids (MCs, 220-450 nm) respectively to conduct a 45-day rice (Oryza sativa L.) rhizotron experiment. During the whole cultivation period, the dynamics of chemical characteristics and P fractions in each experimental rhizosphere soil solution were analyzed. The spatial and temporal dynamics examination of P-transforming enzymes (acid phosphatases) in the rice rhizosphere was visualized by a soil zymography technique after 5, 25, and 45 days of rice transplantation. The results indicated that the acid phosphatase activities and its hot spot areas were significantly 1) correlated with the relative bioavailability of colloidal P (RBAcoll), 2) increased with the colloid-free (truly dissolved P) and BS-derived NC addition, and 3) affected by the plant growth stage. With the nanosized BS colloid addition, the RBAcoll and plant biomass were respectively found to be the highest (64% and 1.22 g plant-1), in which the acid phosphatase-catalyzed hydrolysis of organic Pcoll played an important role. All of the above suggested that nanosized BS-derived colloids are an effective alternative to conventional phosphorus fertilizer for promoting plant P uptake and P bioavailability.

Abstract
Florpyrauxifen-benzyl is a novel herbicide used to control weeds in paddy fields. To clarify and evaluate its hydrolytic behavior and safety in water environments, its hydrolytic characteristics were investigated under varying temperatures, pH values, initial mass concentrations and water types, as well as the effects of 40 environmental factors such as microplastics (MPs) and disposable face masks (DFMs). Meanwhile, hydrolytic products were identified by UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS, and its hydrolytic pathways were proposed. The effects of MPs and DFMs on hydrolytic products and pathways were also investigated. The results showed that hydrolysis of florpyrauxifen-benzyl was a spontaneous process driven by endothermic, base catalysis and activation entropy increase and conformed to the first-order kinetics. The temperature had an obvious effect on hydrolysis rate under alkaline condition, the hydrolysis reaction conformed to Arrhenius formula, and activation enthalpy, activation entropy, and Gibbs free energy were negatively correlated with temperature. Most of environmental factors promoted hydrolysis of florpyrauxifen-benzyl, especially the cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB). The hydrolysis mechanism was ester hydrolysis reaction with a main product of florpyrauxifen. The MPs and DFMs did not affect the hydrolytic mechanisms but the hydrolysis rate. The results are crucial for illustrating and assessing the environmental fate and risks of florpyrauxifen-benzyl.

Abstract
Phosphorus (P) inputs are essential for maximizing agronomic potential, yet high P inputs and subsequent P losses can cause eutrophication of water bodies. There is a need to evaluate P contents in agricultural soils globally both from an agronomic and environmental perspective. This systematic review and meta-analysis estimated the pooled mean levels of P contents of Iran. In this study, data on available and total P contents of Iran's calcareous soils was compiled (main focus on Olsen P) and compared to (i) estimated Iranian background and global agricultural soil P contents, and (ii) agronomic and (iii) environmentally critical Olsen P values. The pooled mean estimate from the meta-analysis indicates that the levels of Olsen P across 425 soil samples (27 studies) were 21.3 mg kg-1 and total P across 190 soil samples (12 studies) 805.5 mg kg-1. Using 26 mg kg-1 as the agronomic critical Olsen P value above which no increase in crop yield occurs, crops grown on 61% of the soil samples in the investigated region would respond to P fertilizer and 20% of soils are currently in the optimum category (26-45 mg kg-1 Olsen P). The environmentally critical Olsen P value (~ 63 mg kg-1), defined as the amount above which P leaches from soil rapidly, was exceeded by 11% of soils with a further 4% of soils with elevated eutrophication risk. To maximize crop yields while maintaining a minimal risk of P leaching in Iran's calcareous soils, we suggest an ideal Olsen P of 26 mg kg-1. The outcomes from this study inform about the P status of Iranian soils and could help update recommendations for P fertilizer applications in calcareous soils globally. The framework presented here could further be adopted to evaluate the P status in other soil types.

Abstract
Soil water-dispersible colloidal phosphorus (WCP) presents high mobility, however, the regulatory effect of biochar-coupled organic fertilizer is rarely known, especially under different cropping patterns. This study investigated the P adsorption, soil aggregate stability, and WCP in three paddy and three vegetable fields. These soils were amended with different fertilizers (chemical fertilizer, CF; substitution of solid-sheep manure or liquid-biogas slurry organic fertilizer, SOF/LOF; substitution of biochar-coupled organic fertilizers, BSOF/BLOF). Results presented that the LOF averagely increased the WCP contents by 50.2% across the sites, but the SOF and BSOF/BLOF averagely decreased their contents by 38.5% and 50.7% in comparison with the CF. The WCP decline in the BSOF/BLOF-amended soils was mainly attributed to the intensive P adsorption capacity and soil aggregate stability. The BSOF/BLOF increased the amorphous Fe and Al contents in the fields in comparison with the CF, which improved the adsorption capacity of soil particles, further improving the maximum absorbed P (Qmax) and reducing the dissolved organic matter (DOC), leading to the improvement of > 2 mm water-stable aggregate (WSA>2mm) and subsequent WCP decrease. This was proved by the remarkable negative associations between the WCP and Qmax (R2 = 0.78, p < 0.01) and WSA>2mm (R2 = 0.74, p < 0.01). This study manifests that biochar-coupled organic fertilizer could effectively reduce soil WCP content via the improvement of P adsorption and aggregate stability.

Size and composition of colloidal phosphorus across agricultural soils amended with biochar, manure and biogas slurry. CARBON RESEARCH 2023; 2:16.

Abstract
AbstractThe long-term application of organic amendments like manure, biochar and biogas slurry can increase phosphorus (P) levels in agricultural soils; however, at present, it's not clear how this affects the P association with different mobile water-dispersible colloidal particles (Pcoll). Thus, this study aimed to assess the effects of the long-term application of different organic amendments on the abundance, size and compositional characteristics of Pcoll. For this purpose, a total of 12 soils amended with the above three organic amendments were sampled from the Zhejiang Province, China, and Pcoll were fractionated into nano-sized (NC; 1–20 nm), fine-sized (FC; 20–220 nm), and medium-sized (MC; 220–450 nm) by a combination of differential centrifugation and ultrafiltration steps. These three Pcoll forms together accounted for 74 ± 14% of the total soil solution dissolved P content, indicating that Pcoll release was a key process in the overland P transport from these soils. Soils treated with biochar showed lower Pcoll contents than those treated with manure or slurry alone; this effect should be further explored in a controlled inductive research approach. Compositional analysis showed that inorganic P was the predominant Pcoll form in the NC (54 ± 20%) and FC (63 ± 28%) fractions, but not in the MC (42 ± 26%) fraction. Among the three fractions, the organic carbon (OC)–calcium (Ca) complex was the major carrier of NC-bound Pcoll, MC-bound Pcoll was better correlated with OC–manganese/iron/aluminium colloids than with OC–Ca colloids, and both of these phenomena co-occurred in the FC fraction. The current study provides novel insights into the impact of various carbon amendments on the propensity for P loss associated with different soil mobile colloidal fractions, and will therefore, inform future agronomic and environmental-related policies and studies.

Abstract
Subsurface losses of colloidal and truly dissolved phosphorus (P) from arable land can cause ecological damage to surface water. To gain deeper knowledge about subsurface particulate P transport from inland sources to brooks, we studied an artificially drained lowland catchment (1550 ha) in north-eastern Germany. We took daily samples during the winter discharge period 2019/2020 at different locations, i.e., a drain outlet, ditch, and brook, and analyzed them for total P (TPunfiltered), particulate P >750 nm (TP>750 nm), colloidal P (TPcolloids), and truly dissolved P (truly DP) during baseflow conditions and high flow events. The majority of TPunfiltered in the tile drain, ditch, and brook was formed by TP>750 nm (54 to 59 %), followed by truly DP (34 to 38 %) and a small contribution of TPcolloids (5 to 6 %). During flow events, 63 to 66 % of TPunfiltered was present as particulate P (TP>750 nm + TPcolloids), whereas during baseflow the figure was 97 to 99 %; thus, truly DP was almost negligible (1 to 3 % of TPunfiltered) during baseflow. We also found that colloids transported in the water samples have their origin in the water-extractable nanocolloids (0.66 to 20 nm) within the C horizon, which are mainly composed of clay minerals. Along the flow path there is an agglomeration of P-bearing nanocolloids from the soil, with an increasing importance of iron(III) (hydr)oxides over clay particles. Event flow facilitated the transport of greater amounts of larger particles (>750 nm) through the soil matrix. However, the discharge did not exhaust colloid mobilization and colloidal P was exported through the tile-drainage system during the complete runoff period, even under baseflow conditions. Therefore, it is essential that the impact of rainfall intensity and pattern on particulate P discharge be considered more closely so that drainage management can be adjusted to achieve a reduced P export from agricultural land.

Abstract
The transport of ferrihydrite colloid (FHC) through porous media is influenced by anions (e.g., PO43-) and cations (e.g., Ca2+) in the aqueous environment. This study investigated the cotransport of FHC with P and P/Ca in saturated sand columns. The results showed that P adsorption enhanced FHC transport, whereas Ca loaded onto P-FHC retarded FHC transport. Phosphate adsorption provided a negative potential on the FHC, while Ca added to P-FHC led to electrostatic screening, compression of the electric double layer, and formation of Ca5(PO4)3OH followed by heteroaggregation at pH ≥ 6.0. The monodentate and bidentate P surface complexes coexisted, and Ca mainly formed a ternary complex with bidentate P (≡(FeO)2PO2Ca). The unprotonation bidentate P at the Stern 1-plane had a considerable negative potential at the Van der Waals molecular surface. Extending the potential effect to the outer layer of FHC, the potential at the Stern 2-plane and zeta potential exhibited a corresponding change, resulting in a change in FHC mobility, which was validated by comparison of experimental results, DFT calculations, and CD-MUSIC models. Our results highlighted the influence of P and Ca on FHC transport and elucidated their interaction mechanisms based on quantum chemistry and colloidal chemical interface reactions.

Abstract
Soil colloids have been shown to play a critical role in soil phosphorus (P) mobility and transport. However, identifying the potential mechanisms behind colloidal P (Pcoll) release and the key influencing factors remains a blind spot. Herein, a machine learning approach (random forest (RF) coupled with partial dependence plot analyses) was applied to determine the effects of different soil physicochemical parameters on Pcoll content in three colloidal subfractions (i.e., nano- (NC): 1-20 nm, fine- (FC): 20-220 nm and medium-sized colloids (MC): 220-450 nm) based on a regional dataset of 12 farmlands in Zhejiang Province, China. RF successfully predicted Pcoll content (R2 = 0.98). Results showed that colloidal- organic carbon (OCcoll) and minerals were the major determinants of total Pcoll content (1-450 nm); their critical values for increasing Pcoll release were 87.0 mg L-1 for OCcoll, 11.0 mg L-1 for iron (Fecoll) or aluminium (Alcoll), 2.6 mg L-1 for calcium (Cacoll), 9.0 mg L-1 for magnesium (Mgcoll), 2.5 mg L-1 for silicon (Sicoll), and 1.4 mg L-1 for manganese (Mncoll). Among three colloidal subfractions, the major factors determining Pcoll were soil Olsen-P (POlsen; 125.0 mg kg-1), Cacoll (2.5 mg L-1), and colloidal P saturation (21.0%) in NC; Mncoll (1.5 mg L-1), Mgcoll (6.8 mg L-1), and POlsen (135.0 mg kg-1) in FC; while Mncoll (1.5 mg L-1), Alcoll (2.5 mg L-1), and Fecoll (3.8 mg L-1) in MC, respectively. OCcoll had a considerable effect in the three fractions, with critical values of 80.0 mg L-1 in NC or FC, and 50.0 mg L-1 in MC. Our study concluded that the information gleaned using the RF model can be used as crucial evidence to identify the key determinants of different size fractionated Pcoll contents. However, we still need to discover one or more easy-to-measure parameters that can help us better predict Pcoll.

Nano and micro manure amendments decrease degree of phosphorus saturation and colloidal phosphorus release from agriculture soils. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 845:157278.

Abstract
The manure fertilizer increases the phosphorus (P) saturation of soils and the colloidal P release to water bodies. Manure of different particle-sizes may have different effects on colloidal P release by soil, and to date there is limited knowledge on colloidal P release from soils amended with different size manures. We produced sheep micro- (SMicro) and nano-manure (SNano), and poultry micro- (PMicro), nano-manure (PNano) from bulk samples by wet fractionation method. The fractionation reduced the P contents of micro- and nano-manures, and enriched them in ash and calcium, iron (Fe), magnesium, and aluminum (Al) phosphate minerals compared with the bulk manures. The degree of P saturation (DPS) in Anthorsol and Cambisol was decreased (SMicro, 17.6 and 17.2 %; SNano, 14.5 and 13.3 % and PMicro, 19.0 and 19.7 mg kg-1; PNano, 17.0 and 14.3 mg kg-1) and released less colloidal P (SMicro, 3.12 and 3.78 mg kg-1; SNano, 3.01 and 3.56 mg kg-1 and PMicro, 3.34 and 3.92 mg kg-1; PNano, 3.21 and 3.65 mg kg-1) than the soils receiving the bulk manures. The decrease in colloidal P was correlated with less DPS in both soils amended with micro and nano manures. That is, the only measurable effect of manure particle size on colloidal P release from the amended soils was due to chemical fractionation during separation of the size fractions. It was suggested that nano and micro manures were the effective approach to reduce colloidal P release from manure amended soils.

Effects of Phosphorus Fertilizer Application Rates on Colloidal Phosphorus Leaching in Purple Soil in Southwest China. WATER 2022.

Abstract
Phosphorus (P) lost via leaching from agricultural land is of major concern for water resource managers worldwide, and colloidal phosphorus (CP) may have a high contribution, since it is an important mobile form of P in soil and subsurface drainage. The objective of this study is to relate P fertilization application rates to CP leaching. To eliminate the influence of climate and facilitate the accurate measurement of P contents in different soil layers, we established soil columns to investigate the impacts of fertilizer application rates and timing on P leaching. Therefore, a soil column leaching experiment was undertaken with different P fertilization application rates (0, 20, 40, 100, 200, and 400 mg kg−1) for purple soil in southwest China. P application rates had significant effects on CP and dissolved phosphorus concentrations in the top soils (p < 0.05) (e.g., 0–10 cm in this study), and they further increased P leaching loss by 24–375%. CP was the dominant P form and contributed 31–61% to total phosphorus in the leachate. The concentration of different P forms in leachates decreased significantly over time, and the risk of P leaching loss was greater within two weeks after P application (p < 0.05). The advisable range of P application rate is recommended to be 0–450 kg ha−1 for agricultural practice, and it is also recommended to keep P fertilizer in the soil for more than two weeks. Some countermeasures, related to application rates and timing, should be taken to minimize the buildup of P in the field and reduce the risk of P leaching.

Pteris vittata plantation decrease colloidal phosphorus contents by reducing degree of phosphorus saturation in manure amended soils. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2022; 304:114214.

Abstract
The agricultural use of manure fertilizer increases the phosphorus (P) saturation of soils and the risk of colloidal P (Pcoll) release to aquatic ecosystems. Two experiments were conducted to identify whether Pteris vittata plantation can decrease Pcoll contents in two soils (Cambisol and Anthrosol) amended with various manure P rates (0, 10, 25, and 50 mg P kg-1 of soil). The total Pcoll contents in manured soil without P. vittata were 1.14-3.37 mg kg-1 (Cambisol), and 0.01-2.83 mg kg-1 (Anthrosol) across manure-P rates. The corresponding values with P. vittata were 0.97-2.33 mg kg-1 (Cambisol) and 0.005-1.6 mg kg-1 (Anthrosol). Experimentally determined colloidal minerals (Fe, Al, Ca), colloidal total organic carbon, Mehlich-3 nutrients (Fe, Al, and Ca), and the degree of P saturation were good predictors of Pcoll concentrations in both soils with and without P. vittata plantation. In unplanted soils, P adsorption decreased and the degree of P saturation increased which released more Pcoll. However, P. vittata plantation decreased the Pcoll release and P loss risk due to the increase of P adsorption and reduced DPS in both soils. The P fractions (NaOH, NH4F, and HCl-P) contributed to increase the P pool in planted soils which enhanced the bioavailability of Pcoll and increased the P. vittata biomass. It suggested that P. vittata plantation was an effective approach to reduce Pcoll release from manure amended soils.

Abstract
Phosphorus (P) is limiting nutrient in many soils, and P availability may often depend on iron (Fe) speciation. Colloidal iron phosphate (FePO4coll) is potentially present in soils, and we tested the hypothesis that phytate exudation by Pteris vittata might dissolve FePO4coll by growing the plant in nutrient solution to which FePO4coll was added. The omission of P and Fe increased phytate exudation by P. vittata from 434 to 2136 mg kg-1 as the FePO4coll concentration increased from 0 to 300 mM. The total P in P. vittata tissue increased from 2880 to 8280 mg kg-1, and the corresponding increases in the trichloroacetic acid (TCA) extractable P fractions were inorganic P (860-5100 mg kg-1), soluble organic P (250-870 mg kg-1), and insoluble organic P (160-2030 mg kg-1). That is, FePO4-solubilizing activity was positive correlated with TP, TCA P fractions in P. vittata, TP in growth media, and root exudates. This study shows that phytate exudation dissolved FePO4coll due to the chelation effect of phytic acid on Fe; however, the wider question of whether phytic acid excretion was prompted by deprivation of P, Fe, or both remains to be answered.

Towards Precision Fertilization: Multi-Strategy Grey Wolf Optimizer Based Model Evaluation and Yield Estimation. ELECTRONICS 2021.

Abstract
Precision fertilization is a major constraint in consistently balancing the contradiction between land resources, ecological environment, and population increase. Even more, it is a popular technology used to maintain sustainable development. Nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) are the main sources of nutrient income on farmland. The traditional fertilizer effect function cannot meet the conditional agrochemical theory’s conditional extremes because the soil is influenced by various factors and statistical errors in harvest and yield. In order to find more accurate scientific ratios, it has been proposed a multi-strategy-based grey wolf optimization algorithm (SLEGWO) to solve the fertilizer effect function in this paper, using the “3414” experimental field design scheme, taking the experimental field in Nongan County, Jilin Province as the experimental site to obtain experimental data, and using the residuals of the ternary fertilizer effect function of Nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium as the target function. The experimental results showed that the SLEGWO algorithm could improve the fitting degree of the fertilizer effect equation and then reasonably predict the accurate fertilizer application ratio and improve the yield. It is a more accurate precision fertilization modeling method. It provides a new means to solve the problem of precision fertilizer and soil testing and fertilization.
