Microbial pathways for nitrogen loss in an upland soil
Tóm tắt
The distribution and importance of anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) and nitrite‐dependent anaerobic methane oxidation (n‐damo) have been identified in aquatic ecosystems; their role in agricultural upland soils however has not yet been well investigated. In this study, we examined spatio‐temporal distributions of anammox and n‐damo bacteria in soil profiles (300 cm depth) from an agricultural upland. Monitoring nitrogen (N) conversion activity using isotope‐tracing techniques over the course of one year showed denitrification (99.0% N‐loss in the winter and 85.0% N‐loss in the summer) predominated over anammox (1.0% N‐loss in the winter and 14.4% N‐loss in the summer) and n‐damo (0.6% N‐loss in the winter) in surface soils (0–20 cm). While below 20 cm depth, N‐loss was dominated by anammox (79.4 ± 14.3% in the winter and 65.4 ± 12.5% in the summer) and n‐damo was not detected. Phylogenetic analysis showed that
