Effects of Continuous Cropping on Soil Microbial Flora and Research Progress of Continuous Cropping Obstacle Reduction Techniques

Continuous cropping can bring economic benefits in a short time and meet the growing demand of agricultural products such as grain,but long-term continuous cropping will accelerate soil degradation,lead to the reduction of crop yield and the increase of disease rate,and destroy the balance of soil microbial structure.Therefore,it is not conducive to the sustainable development of soil ecosystem.In this paper,the problems caused by continuous cropping,such as imbalance of soil microbial flora,decrease of biodiversity,accumulation of root exudates and their effects on soil fertility and crop growth,were summarized,and some measures were suggested to alleviate the obstacles of continuous cropping,such as reasonable rotation,adjustment of intercropping planting mode and application of biological fertilizers.Moreover,the paper also looked forward to the development trend of continuous cropping obstacle reduction techniques,including the integration and application of biological techniques,the promotion of green ecological techniques and the application of intelligent management system.This study provides theoretical basis and technical support for the research of continuous cropping obstacle reduction techniques and promote the healthy and sustainable development of modern agriculture.

Impact of Continuous Cropping on Soil Phenolic Acid Substances and Research Progress on Continuous Cropping Obstacle Reduction Techniques

At present,long-term continuous cropping in agricultural production has formed a relatively common development trend.With the increase of continuous cropping years,soil phenolic acids are also affected to varying degrees.This paper summarized the effects of continuous cropping on soil phenolic acids and the research progress of continuous cropping obstacle reduction techniques,aiming at providing theoretical basis and technical support for the research of continuous cropping obstacle reduction techniques and promoting the healthy and sustainable development of modern agriculture.

Effects of Allelochemicals on Root Growth and Pod Yield in Response to Continuous Cropping Obstacle of Peanut

Continuous cropping(CC)obstacle is a major threat in legume crops production;however,the underlying mechanisms concerning the roles allelochemicals play in CC obstacle are poorly understood.The current 2-year study was conducted to investigate the effects of different kinds and concentrations of allelochemicals,p-hydroxybenzoic acid(H),cinnamic acid(C),phthalic acid(P),and their mixtures(M)on peanut root growth and productivity in response to CC obstacle.Treatment with H,C,P,and M significantly decreased the plant height,dry weight of the leaves and stems,number of branches,and length of the lateral stem compared with control.Exogenous application of H,C,P,and M inhibited the peanut root growth as indicated by the decreased root morphological characters.The allelochemicals also induced the cell membrane oxidation even though the antioxidant enzymes activities were significantly increased in peanut roots.Meanwhile,treatment with H,C,P,and M reduced the contents of total soluble sugar and total soluble protein.Analysis of ATPase activity,nitrate reductase activity,and root system activity revealed that the inhibition effects of allelochemicals on peanut roots might be due to the decrease in activities of ATPase and NR,and the inhibition of root system.Consequently,allelochemicals significantly decreased the pod yield of peanut compared with control.Our results demonstrate that allelochemicals play a dominant role in CC obstacle-induced peanut growth inhibition and yield reduction through damaging the root antioxidant system,unbalancing the osmolytes accumulation,and decreasing the activities of root-related enzymes.

Research Progress on Effects of Continuous Cropping on Soil Microbial Florae and Its Restoration

Continuous cropping has become a common form of agricultural production at present, but with the increase of continuous cropping years, continuous cropping obstacles such as soil-borne diseases and plant growth potential decline are becoming more and more common. At present, the causes of continuous cropping obstacles and continuous cropping restoration have become a hot issue in agricultural research. This paper summarized the effects of continuous cropping obstacles on soil microbial community structure and main technical methods to repair continuous cropping obstacles, such as agricultural measure management, microbial balance adjustment and soil improvement, aiming to provide theoretical reference for protecting the sustainable utilization of soil ecosystem and ensuring the stability of crop production.

Effects and Mechanisms of Oil Cakes on the Growth of Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) Under Continuous Cropping System

Fxperiments on the effect of soil amendment with rape (Brassica chinensis L.) seed cake, cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) seed or sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) seed cake on the growth of cucumber seedlings under a continuous cropping system were conducted in a greenhouse environment. The results indicated that two applications of sesame seed cake (0.1 and 0.5 %, w/w) increased the growth of cucumber, but the rape oil cake showed a negative effect at a rate of 1.5% (w/w). The sesame seed cake was separated into four fractions (Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ) according to the polarity, and all four fractions had a positive effect on the growth of cucumbers under a continuous cropping system. Fraction number Ⅲ was isolated into 25 proportions by silicon column, and only oleic acid, palmitic acid and octadecanoic acid were identified in proportion 10 by GC-MS in which 93.3% was oleic acid and palmitic acid. The oleic acid had a significant and positive effect on cucumber growth under salt stress at the level 30 mmol and showed slight resistance to several pathogenic fungi.

Effects of Crop Stubble on Physicochemical Properties of Continuous Cropping Soil and Cucumber Yield and Quality

By a pot experiment, two kinds of crop stubble (wheat, soybean) were added into continuous cropping soil of cucumber according to different quantity (0.5%, 1% and 2%), the effects of different kinds of stubble and quantity on the continuous cropping soil and growth of cucumber were investigated. The results showed that two kinds of crop stubble significantly decreased soil bulk density, and increased total porosity of soil. Each of all treatments significantly decreased the accumulation of salinity in soil within the entire growth period of cucumber. 2% wheat stubble treatment had the biggest drop in soil EC in the later period of cucumber growth. Soybean stubble treatment had the lesser effect on soil EC. Wheat and soybean stubble promoted the growth of cucumber, increased the yield of cucumber, and improved the quality of cucumber. 2% of wheat stubble treatment had a biggest increase in cucumber yield, which increased the yield by 34.23% compared with the control.

Screening and Verification of Genes Specifically Responding to Continuous Cropping Obstacle in Rehmannia glutinosa L.

Rehmannia glutinosa L.is one of the important medicinal crops in China.Continuous cropping obstacle severely restricts the yield and quality of R.glutinosa,but its molecular mechanism is still unclear.In this study,with widely-planted "Wen 85-5" as an experiment material,based on the digital gene expression profiling (DGE) data of previous five stress treatments (continuous cropping,phenolic acid,salt,drought and waterlogging) and the first cropping and continuous cropping treatments of R.glutinosa in five different periods (seedling period,elongation period,early expanding period,middle expanding period and later expanding period),80 candidate genes (|log 2 ratio|≥1,FDR <0.001) specifically responding to continuous cropping obstacle in R.glutinosa were screened.Functional analysis revealed that the differentially expressed genes were involved in the secretion and endocytosis of root cells,which may suggest that the recognition and absorption of allelopathic autotoxins by the roots of R.glutinosa is an important factor that restricts the development of roots in continuous cropping of R.glutinosa.In order to accurately lock genes specifically responding to continuous cropping obstacle in R.glutinosa,continuous cropping soil extract and ferulic acid and p-hydroxybenzonic acid were used to treat aseptic plantlets of R.glutinosa,respectively,and it was confirmed through qRT-PCR that the expression levels of some genes under phenolic acid treatment changed more severely than that under the continuous cropping soil extract treatment,and four key genes involved in the response of R.glutinosa to continuous cropping were finally locked.This study lays a foundation for further exploration of the molecular mechanism of continuous cropping obstacle.

A review of research progress on continuous cropping obstacles

Due to the increasing global population and limited land resources, continuous cropping has become common. However, after a few years of continuous cropping, obstacles often arise that cause soil degeneration, decreased crop yield and quality, and increased disease incidence, resulting in significant economic losses. It is essential to understand the causes and mitigation mechanisms of continuous cropping obstacles(CCOs) and then develop appropriate methods to overcome them. This review systematically summarizes the causes and mitigation measures of soil degradation in continuous cropping through a meta-analysis. It was concluded that not all continuous cropping systems are prone to CCOs. Therefore, it is necessary to grasp the principles governing the occurrence of diseases caused by soilborne pathogens in different cropping systems, consider plant–soil-organisms interactions as a system, scientifically regulate the physical and chemical properties of soils from a systems perspective, and then regulate the structure of microbial food webs in the soil to achieve a reduction in diseases caused by soilborne pathogens and increase crop yield ultimately. This review provides reference data and guidance for addressing this fundamental problem.

Effects of intercropping on rhizosphere soil microorganisms and root exudates of Lanzhou lily(Lilium davidii var.unicolor)

Both yield and quality of Lanzhou lily(Lilium davidii var. unicolor) are seriously affected by continuous cropping. We attempted to understand the effects of intercropping on the obstacles associated with continuous cropping of Lanzhou lily(Lilium davidii var. unicolor). The changes of rhizosphere microbial biomass and diversity in interplanting and monoculturing systems were studied by using the Illumina Hi Seq sequencing technique. The contents and composition of lily root exudates were measured by gas chromatography–mass spectrometer(GC–MS). The intercropping results of Lanzhou lily showed:(1) There was no difference in the composition of the rhizosphere soil microbes at the phylum level, but the relative abundance of the microbes decreased; and the relative abundance of harmful fungi such as Fusarium sp. increased. The relative abundance of Pleosporales sp. and other beneficial bacteria were reduced. After OTU(operational taxonomic unit)clustering, there were some beneficial bacteria, such as Chaetomium sp., in the lily rhizosphere soil in the interplanting system that had not existed in the single-cropping system. We did not find harmful bacteria that had existed in the single-cropping systm in the rhizosphere soil of interplanting system. The above results indicated that the changes of relative abundance of soil fungi and bacteria in lily rhizosphere soil was not conducive to improving the ecological structure of rhizosphere soil microbes. At the same time, the microbial composition change is very complex—beneficial and yet inadequate at the same time.(2) Root exudates provide a matrix for the growth of microorganisms. Combined with the detection of root exudates, the decrease in the composition of the root exudates of the lily was probably the reason for the decrease of the relative abundance of microbes after intercropping. At the same time, the decrease of the relative content of phenolic compounds, which inhibit the growth of microorganisms, did not increase the relative content of rhizosphere soil microorganisms. Changes in amino acids and total sugars may be responsible for the growth of Fusarium sp.. The results showed that the intercropping pattern did not noticeably alleviate the obstacle to continuous cropping of Lanzhou lily, and the change of microbial biomass and diversity was even unfavorable. However, the emergence of some beneficial bacteria, the disappearance of harmful fungi, and other changes with intercropping are in favor of alleviation of obstacles to continuous cropping of Lanzhou lily.

湿垃圾来源的蚯蚓粪肥对连作障碍土壤质量和黄瓜产量的影响

随着城市化的发展,湿垃圾产量与日俱增,湿垃圾资源化利用迫在眉睫。利用蚯蚓处理湿垃圾制作蚯蚓粪肥用于农田土壤改良,是一项有效的湿垃圾资源化利用途径以及有利于缓解蔬菜连作障碍方面问题。该文以常规有机肥为参照,选取以湿垃圾及其厌氧沼渣为原料制作的蚯蚓粪肥为研究对象,研究连续3年施加蚯蚓粪肥对黄瓜(Cucumis sativus)土壤综合质量和作物产量的影响。结果表明,经过3年的改良后,施加60.0 t/hm^(2)蚯蚓粪肥的黄瓜产量提高了5.60%,土壤有机质含量提高了50.0%,且蚯蚓粪肥的效果要高于常规有机肥;土壤全氮含量达到最高,高于背景值33.0%;土壤的养分含量(硝态氮、速效磷、速效钾)也得到了提高,其中速效钾含量升高了94.0%。经过3年的改良,土壤中的细菌数量在施加了有机肥后明显增加,其中以添加30.0t/hm^(2)蚯蚓粪肥的细菌数量最多;土壤细菌/真菌的比值有所提高,土壤生物性状得到改善。土壤的呼吸强度随着有机肥的施入而升高,以施加60.0t/hm^(2)蚯蚓粪肥的最大;土壤pH略有降低,盐度无明显变化。因此,湿垃圾来源的蚯蚓粪肥能改善土壤的理化和生物学性质,可在一定程度上缓解连作障碍的发生,可作为化肥替代品或与化肥相配合在农业生产中进行推广。

甘薯连作障碍发生的土壤养分因素探讨

连作障碍是甘薯种植中的一个突出问题。为了阐明甘薯连作障碍发生的原因,分别采集了5、10和15年连作甘薯及其对照土壤,分析了土壤pH、有机质、阳离子交换量、全量和有效态氮、磷、钾含量、有效态中微量元素含量,并计算了土壤氮、磷、钾之间的比值。结果表明:相比于各自对照,5年甘薯连作显著提高了土壤pH,但是10和15年连作显著降低了土壤pH;5年连作对土壤有机质含量影响较小,但是10和15年连作提高了土壤有机质含量,其中15年连作达显著水平;5年连作对土壤全氮和碱解氮含量影响较小,但是10和15年连作均显著提高了土壤全氮和碱解氮含量;5、10和15年连作均显著提高了土壤全磷和有效磷含量;不同连作年限对土壤全钾、速效钾和中微量元素(钙、镁、硫、铁、锰、铜、锌、硅)含量的影响没有明显规律;甘薯多年连作后,土壤氮/磷降低,氮/钾和磷/钾升高,导致土壤氮、磷、钾失衡,氮磷过多可能引起钾的相对缺乏,也会破坏土壤微生态体系,引起病虫害发生。甘薯是一种耐贫瘠且喜钾植物,基于上述结果,甘薯连作一般不会造成土壤肥力的降低,土壤酸化和氮磷钾养分失衡可能是造成甘薯连作障碍发生的两个主要原因。

异源双根缓解咖啡连作障碍及其机制初探

为明确异源双根是否能缓解咖啡连作障碍及其可能机制,本研究以大粒种咖啡1号(Caffealiberica,No.1)和中粒种咖啡热研1号(Caffea canephora, Reyan No. 1)靠接形成大粒种-中粒种异源双根咖啡,通过咖啡连作障碍园土壤培养幼苗,评价植株苗木质量,明确异源双根对咖啡连作障碍的缓解作用。通过双根无分隔、尼龙网分隔、双盆分隔等不同分根方式试验,明确异源双根缓解咖啡连作障碍机制,并探讨双根间在缓解连作障碍上的差异及协同作用。结果表明:较连作障碍咖啡园非根际土,异源双根咖啡或同源双根咖啡经根际土培养后苗木质量指数、总的植株生物量均显著下降,连作逆境抑制咖啡生物量积累,使苗木质量变差;非根际土培养后,异源双根咖啡、同源双根咖啡的苗木质量指数和总的植株生物量差异均不显著;而根际土培养后,异源双根咖啡较同源双根咖啡的苗木质量指数、大粒种根系生物量、中粒种根系生物量及总的植株生物量均显著提高。因此,连作逆境虽抑制咖啡生长,但对同源双根咖啡影响更大,异源双根通过其大粒种根系缓解连作逆境咖啡生长障碍。为进一步明确异源双根尤其是大粒种根系缓解咖啡连作障碍的可能机制,以不同分根方式培养异源双根咖啡,发现较无分隔、双盆分隔处理,连作逆境下双根尼龙网分隔后植株苗木质量佳,并且尼龙网分隔后植株的中粒种根系长势最好,说明大粒种根系化感物质促进中粒种根系生长。双根无分隔、双盆分隔后植株的苗木质量差异不显著,无分隔较双盆分隔后植株的大粒种根系长势差,即双根系在能够彼此接触的自然生长状态下,中粒种根系抑制大粒种根系生长,但这种抑制作用与中粒种根际化感物质无关,尼龙网分隔、双盆分隔后大粒种根系长势差异不显著,说明大粒种根际有无中粒种根际化感物质,对大粒种根系生长均无影响。综上所述,异源双根通过其大粒种根系减少自身在连作逆境中的化感抑制,利用其根际化感物质促进中粒种根系生长,实现根壮苗壮,达到缓解咖啡连作障碍的目的。研究结论为异源双根靠接在大田的推广应用提供理论依据。

生物质炭和有机肥配施对苹果重茬育苗地土壤理化性质和微生物群落特征的影响

温度对厌氧土壤消毒处理效果的影响

为探讨温度对厌氧土壤消毒处理消除连作障碍因子的影响,以番茄连作土壤为研究对象,设置5个处理:对照、10℃、20℃、30℃和40℃处理,置于生化恒温培养箱内,密封处理3周。结果表明,不同温度ASD处理均可使土壤pH显著升高、EC显著降低,土壤有机碳(TOC)、速效钾含量显著增加,低温(小于10℃)ASD处理不能完全消除土壤累积的NO_(3)^(-),高温(40℃)ASD处理中NH_(4)^(+)含量显著升高;不同温度ASD处理中细菌数量显著增加,高温(40℃)ASD处理中真菌、尖孢镰刀菌数量均显著降低。可见,高温(40℃)ASD处理效果最好,不同温度ASD处理均显著提高土壤TOC、速效钾含量。
