The positive effects of afforestation in karst rocky desertification areas are often limited by soil nitrogen (N) availability. However, how plant N limitation evolves response to prolonged as well the mechanisms underlying and availability poorly understood. In this study, leaves samples were collected from cropland, Dodonaea viscosa plantations 10, 20 40 years after their establishment on abandoned cropland a area. natural succession shrubland served control. Foliar N/phosphorus (P) stoichiometry was used evaluate limitation, concentration δ15N value foliar measured changes Soil transformation rates also determined, using 15N tracing technique elucidate mechanism inorganic community-level N/P ratio (13.5) lower than 14 following 10-y afforestation, indicating that growth is predominantly limited. With increased 14.0–15.5, suggesting decreased limitation. This could be attributed confirmed raises with afforestation.

Abstract Reactive nitrogen (N) plays a pivotal role in supplying N to plants and soil microbes, but it has negative environmental impacts through influencing the quality of water air, which turn influences human health. Thus, there is an urgent necessity maximize benefits while reducing on environment. Improving crop use efficiency (NUE) required for conservation agricultural sustainability. objective this article introduce modern developments imminent prospects improving crops NUE using various complementary methods. Here, approaches site-specific management, synthetic biological nitrification inhibitors, microbial nitrate (NO 3 − ) immobilization stimulation, stimulation dissimilatory reduction ammonium (DNRA), adopting agroforestry system, breeding techniques, quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping, omics approaches, potential new targets overexpression N-related genes were presented as effective NUE. Optimal rate, time, application methods, specially formulated forms fertilizer, inhibitors are most practices linked with The fertilizer recommendations could be often justified across field rather than uniform spatial variability nutrient content. Restoring NO retention capacity system can also promising ways improve Furthermore, genetic modification or development cultivars that more efficiently critical. In addition, data, including transcriptomics metabolomics, not only advance our current understanding reactions help us move towards strategies, enhancing production. conclusion, strongly advocates integrated private insight genetics management when managing N.

Abstract Plant species diversity (PSD) regulates ecosystem structure and functions, is a key issue we need to consider when design vegetation restoration projects. Increasing PSD has been shown promote or decrease soil nitrogen (N) availability, but the underlying mechanisms have not well explored. Here, 45 plots with Shannon–Weiner indices ranging from 0.15 3.57 were selected in subtropical forest explore effect of on N transformations. Higher significantly enhanced rates gross mineralization, nitrification, microbial immobilization, net nitrification contents total inorganic N. Structural equation modelling showed that indirectly impacted transformations via its roles regulating organic matter, mineral traits. stimulated mineralization mainly positive effects biomass content gene abundances chiA , archaeal bacterial amoA while increased immobilization due stimulation matter. Synthesis applications . Our findings highlight crucial role stimulating availability provide mechanistic understanding which can be integrated into Earth system models better predict C sequestration response PSD.

The responses of soil nitrogen (N) transformations to climate change are crucial for biome productivity prediction under global change.

Abstract Identifying tipping points in the relationship between aridity and gross nitrogen (N) cycling rates could show critical vulnerabilities of terrestrial ecosystems to climate change. Yet, global pattern N response across remains unknown. Here, we collected 14,144 observations from 451 15 N‐labeled studies used segmented regression identify threshold responses soil process‐related variables index (AI), which decreases as increases. We found on a scale that increasing reduced nitrate consumption but increased nitrification capacity, mainly due microbial biomass carbon (MBC) (MBN) pH. Threshold production retention was observed ecosystems. In croplands, extractable were inhibited with below AI ~0.8–0.9 ammonia‐oxidizing archaea bacteria, while opposite favored above this threshold. grasslands, mineralization immobilization decreased ~0.5 MBN, true forests, stimulated ~1.0 C/N ratio, ammonium ~1.3 total MBC/MBN ratio. Soil dissimilatory reduction globally forests when ~1.4 passed. Overall, suggest any projected increase change is likely reduce plant availability arid regions enhancing it humid regions, affecting provision ecosystem services functions.
