Effects of nitrogen addition and mowing on nitrogen- and water-use efficiency of <i>Artemisia frigida</i> in a grassland restored from an abandoned cropland

چکیده

Abstract Aims Competition among plants in a community usually depends on their nitrogen (N)-use efficiency (NUE) and water-use (WUE) arid semi-arid regions. Artemisia frigida is an indicator species heavily degraded grassland, however, how its NUE WUE respond to N addition different successional stages still unclear, especially with mowing, common management practice grasslands. Methods Based long-term controlled experiment mowing abandoned cropland from 2006 2013, we investigated the of A. two patches (i.e. grass herb patches) 2013 which represented potential communities. The coverage was higher (about 50%) patch than 10%). Stable isotopic C (δ 13C) 15N) as well pools were measured soils. calculated leaf C/N, δ 13C values used proxy for WUE. Important Findings did not affect frigida, but significantly decreased by 42.9% 26.6% patches, respectively. response related altering utilization sources (NH4+vs. NO3−) according changed relationship between 15N/soil 15N NUE. Mowing had no effect regardless addition, increased 2.3% without patch. reduced positive Our results suggested that and/or under could reduce competition, further accelerate restoration succession natural grassland region.

Effects of manure nitrogen on vegetables’ yield and nitrogen efficiency in Tanzania

Due to an increasing demand of leaf vegetables, and hence their economic importance in the tropics, it is very common that excessive fertilizer N rates are applied to vegetable gardens and fields to attain high yield. This calls for more information on their nutrient requirements. In this study, we designed experiments to explore the effect of organic N levels on the yield and agronomic N use e...

Plant nitrogen uptake drives responses of productivity to nitrogen and water addition in a grassland

Increased atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition and altered precipitation regimes have profound impacts on ecosystem functioning in semiarid grasslands. The interactions between those two factors remain largely unknown. A field experiment with N and water additions was conducted in a semiarid grassland in northern China. We examined the responses of aboveground net primary production (ANPP) and p...
