The article presents the materials of the study of the relationships between the complexes of microarthropods (oribatid-co-bulb and acaridic-astigmatic) in three different types of soils (podzolic, chernozem and gray forest) in the south of the Tyumen region. A comparative analysis of the quantitative indices of the complexes has been carried out, and several factors affecting the formation of indicators of their numbers have been identified. Carrying out a comparative analysis of the quantitative parameters of the oribotical-collembolic and acaridium-astigmatic complexes of microarthropods in podzolic soils and chernozem soils showed that the number of microarthropods on podzolic soils exceeded the indices of chernozem soil by more than 10,000 items per m2. According to the study results on gray forest soils, it was noted that the total number of both investigated microarthropod complexes is 4 times lower than in chernozem and podzolic ones. A possible explanation was that only the upper layers (about 8 cm deep) of the gray forest soil were saturated with the root mass of the plants, which in turn was the habitat of microarthropods; further, the deeper into the soil, the less the number of roots, and, accordingly,the less the quantity of food base for microarthropods. It was also found that the largest number of microarthropods of both investigated complexes was reached on podzolic (more than 17 600 specimens/m2) and chernozem soils (more than 16 300 specimens/m2). The smallest number of microarthropods was recorded on gray forest soils (up to 6 500 specimens/m2). The maximum indices of the abundance of the oribotical-colembolic and acaridium-astigmatic complexes on all types of soils were noted in May and September. For the period of the conducted researches, the oribatidic-collembolic complex was the dominant in number, the most significant indicators of which were found in areas with podzolic soils in the autumn (15 392 ind./m2).


The results of long-term research on the influence of main indicators on their agro-resource potential are summarized on gray forest soils of the upper Volga region. For the conditions of the Vladimir Opolie, the probable yield of biomass and the main products of field crops were calculated at different coefficients ofphotosynthetic active radiation (FAR) use. Calculations of the main product yields are made taking into account the distribution of biomass to by-products and crop-root residues. For field crops of the studied crop rotations, the coefficients of precipitation utilization are estimated. They varied from 44 to 71%, depending on the crop rotation culture. On the slope of the southern exposure when cultivating winter cereals and perennial grasses, the main moisture losses were observed in the spring during snowmelt, when growing spring crops and potatoes, they were close in the autumn and spring periods. The sizes of moisture use by crops depending on the fertilizer systems for the creation of 1 C of grain units (g.u.) and from sub-arable layers are determined. In comparison with the liming background, the use of organic fertilizers reduced the water consumption coefficient from 9.6 to 8.5 mm/C g.u., their combination with a single dose of NPK - up to 7.3, and with a double dose - up to 6.8 mm / C g.u. Based on the amount of moisture used by crops, their possible yields are calculated. In spring crops, the amount of precipitation consumed (326-356 mm) corresponds to the use of 2.7-3% of the FAR and provides 54-60 C/ha of grain, in winter rye and wheat - about 4% of the FAR (yield 71-80 C/ha). In perennial grasses for 2 mowing, the moisture consumed is enough to use about 3% of the FAR., in potatoes -1.5%.

AbstractForest soils play an important role in controlling global warming by reducing atmospheric methane (CH4) concentrations. However, little attention has been paid to how nitrogen (N) deposition may alter microorganism communities that are related to the CH4 cycle or CH4 oxidation in subtropical forest soils. We investigated the effects of N addition (0, 30, 60, or 90 kg N ha−1 yr−1) on soil CH4 flux and methanotroph and methanogen abundance, diversity, and community structure in a Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) forest in subtropical China. N addition significantly increased methanogen abundance but reduced both methanotroph and methanogen diversity. Methanotroph and methanogen community structures under the N deposition treatments were significantly different from those of the control. In N deposition treatments, the relative abundance of Methanoculleus was significantly lower than that in the control. Soil pH was the key factor regulating the changes in methanotroph and methanogen diversity and community structure. The CH4 emission rate increased with N addition and was negatively correlated with both methanotroph and methanogen diversity but positively correlated with methanogen abundance. Overall, our results suggested that N deposition can suppress CH4 uptake by altering methanotroph and methanogen abundance, diversity, and community structure in subtropical Moso bamboo forest soils.
