- Abstract
Purpose: The chemistry of soil organic matter (SOM) is fundamental for sustainable and climate-smart agroecosystems. However, the differences in SOM chemistry between the upland and paddy soils developing under the same climatic and edaphic conditions are unclear. Materials and methods: Py-GC/MS was applied to characterize the biochemical features of SOM in three physical size fractions: coarse particulate (> 0.25 mm, cPOM), fine particulate (0.053–0.25 mm, fPOM), and mineral-associated OM (< 0.053 mm, MAOM) of upland and paddy fields under long-term (> 30 years) mineral and manure fertilizations. Results and discussion: Paddy fields had higher contents of soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (TN) mainly accumulated in MAOM fraction than uplands. These two soils had different molecular compositions of SOM: N-containing compounds including amino-N and heterocyclic-N compounds enriched in the uplands, whereas paddy had higher proportions of lipids and phenolics. The SOM composition was also dependent on particle size, especially in the uplands, where POM fractions had high contents of lignin and MAOM accumulated N-containing components. In contrast, POM in paddy accumulated polysaccharides, whereas MAOM was enriched with lipids. Particle size controlled the C oxidation state (Cox), and paddy soils had higher Cox than that of uplands, mainly in the MAOM fraction. Conclusions: The molecular composition SOM was primarily regulated by land-use type, following by fraction size and fertilization regime, while the Cox was controlled by fraction size. The Cox needs more attention to understand the direction of formation of SOM fractions.
