Long-Term Balanced Fertilization Decreases Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungal Diversity in an Arable Soil in North China Revealed by 454 Pyrosequencing
Abstract
A balanced fertilization can increase crop yields partly due to stimulated microbial activities and growths. In this study, we investigated arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in arable soils to determine the optimal practices for an effective fertilization. We used pyrosequencing-based approach to study AMF diversity, as well as their responses to different long-term (>20 years) fertilizations, including OM (organic manure) and mix chemical fertilizers of NP (nitrogen-phosphorus), NK (nitrogen-potassium), and NPK (nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium). Results revealed that 124,998 of 18S rRNA gene fragments were dominated by Glomeromycota with 59,611 sequences, generating 70 operational taxonomic units (OTUs), of which the three largest families were Glomeraceae, Gigasporaceae and Acaulosporaceae. In Control and NK plots, AMF diversity and richness significantly decreased under long-term P fertilizations, such as NP, NPK, and OM. Concomitantly, the AMF community structure shifted. Supported by canonical correspondence analysis, we hereby propose that long-term balanced fertilization, especially P fertilizer with additional N fertilizer, helps the build-up of soil nutrients. Consequently, some AMF community constituents are sacrificed, propelled by the self-regulation of plant-AMF-microbes system, resulting in an agro-ecosystem with a better sustainability. This knowledge would be valuable toward better understandings of AMF community in agro-ecosystem, and long-term ecosystem benefits of the balanced fertilization.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
