| Abstract: |
| A laboratory incubation study over a 28-day period at 25℃ and 60% water holding capacity in China was conducted to determine the effect of nitrification inhibitors on nitrification rates in four typical tea soils(pH 3.32~3.54). The experiment included five treatments applied on an equivalent N basis:(1) CK, soil+urea (100 mg N·kg-1); (2) 2% DCD(Dicyandiamide), soil+urea+2% DCD; (3) 10% DCD, soil+urea+10% DCD; (4) 0.27% Nitrapyrin(2-chloro-6-(trichloromethyl) pyridine), soil+urea+0.27% Nitrapyrin; (5) 0.54% Nitrapyrin, soil+urea+0.54% Nitrapyrin. Both nitrification inhibitors were applied at recommendation rates. The results showed that inhibitory effect of DCD decreased with incubation time in the four tea soils, and the high concentration of DCD showed a stronger inhibitory effect than the low concentration only on the 28th day. After 28 days of incubation, both rates of DCD reduced nitrification by 12.15%~59.68% in Anxi and Yixing tea soils, while the inhibitory effect disappeared in Hangzhou and Langxi tea soils regardless of DCD concentration. In general, DCD inhibition effects over 28 d incubation ranked as Yixing soil > Anxi soil > Hangzhou soil > Langxi soil. Compared with DCD, Nitrapyrin completely inhibited net nitrification in the four tea soils during the whole experiment period regardless of the concentration of Nitrapyrin, indicating that Nitrapyrin could effectively inhibit the nitrification of tea soils during the 28 days of incubation. Overall, Nitrapyrin is a more efficient nitrification inhibitor for tea soils. |
