Abstract:

In order to explore the effects of combined application of amino acid fertilizer and urea on soil active organic carbon components and enzyme activities in pepper,and to clarify the fertilization mode to increase the content of soil active organic carbon components in pepper.Seven treatments were set up,including no fertilization(CK),single application of urea(N0),80% urea + 20% amino acid fertilizer(N20),60% urea + 40% amino acid fertilizer(N40),40% urea + 60% amino acid fertilizer(N60),20% urea + 80% amino acid fertilizer(N80)and single application of amino acid fertilizer(N100).The changes of soil physical and chemical properties,soil active organic carbon content and enzyme activity under each treatment were studied.The results showed that the combined application of amino acid fertilizer and urea could effectively increase the contents of nitrogen,phosphorus and potassium,organic matter,enzyme activity,organic carbon and its active components in soil.The content of soil organic carbon increased with the increase of amino acid fertilizer application,and the content of soil active organic carbon components and enzyme activity increased first and then stabilized or decreased slightly with the increase of amino acid fertilizer application.The soil easily oxidized organic carbon content,particulate organic carbon content,microbial biomass carbon content,cellulase activity,catalase activity and amylase activity of N60 treatment were the best:in 0-20 cm soil layer,compared with CK treatment,they were increased by 105.50%,19.43%,142.60%,126.57%,22.28% and 308.20%,respectively.In the 20-40 cm soil layer,compared with CK treatment,it increased by 39.75%,59.32%,59.00%,130.27%,33.24% and 342.16%,respectively.Correlation analysis showed that soil total organic carbon and active organic carbon components were significantly positively correlated with enzyme activity.It can be seen that the combined application of amino acid fertilizer and urea can effectively improve the soil active organic carbon content and enzyme activity in pepper,and the treatment of 40% urea combined with 60% amino acid fertilizer has the greatest potential for improvement.
