N2O emission in maize-crops fertilized with pig slurry, matured pig manure or ammonium nitrate in Brittany

International audience; N2O is a potent greenhouse gas and solutions have to be sought to reduce its emission from agriculture. This work evaluates N2O emission from maize-crop (Zea mays) fields submitted to different organic or mineral fertilizers (pig slurry, matured pig manure or ammonium nitrate) in Brittany (France). N2O emission was evaluated along a year in two experimental sites receiving 110 or 180 kg N ha−1 as ammonium nitrate or pig slurry and 180 or 132 kg N ha−1 as ammonium nitrate or matured pig manure at Champ Noel and Le Rheu experimental plots, respectively. N2O emission was evaluated by interpolation method of periodic fluxes on the field scale and by simulation with NOE a…

Dénitrification et émission de N2O par des sols soumis à une fertilisation organique ou minérale. Cas des effluents porcins

Les effets des apports à long terme (9 ans) de lisier de porc ou de nitrate d’ammonium sur l’activité énitrifiante, la production de N2O et le carbone organique du sol (C extractible, C de la biomasse microbienne et C organique total) ont été comparés sur des parcelles adjacentes à trois profondeurs différentes. L’activité dénitrifiante a été mesurée sur des cylindres de sol non remanié et sur des échantillons de sol tamisés avec la méthode à l’acétylène afin d’estimer la vitesse de dénitrification aux conditions du champ ou en conditions potentielles. Les applications de lisier ont eu un effet modéré sur les pools de C. La teneur en C organique total a été augmentée de 6,5% et la taille de…

Disentangling the rhizosphere effect on nitrate reducers and denitrifiers: insight into the role of root exudates.

International audience; To determine to which extent root-derived carbon contributes to the effects of plants on nitrate reducers and denitrifiers, four solutions containing different proportions of sugar, organic acids and amino acids mimicking maize root exudates were added daily to soil microcosms at a concentration of 150 μg C g−1 of soil. Water-amended soils were used as controls. After 1 month, the size and structure of the nitrate reducer and denitrifier communities were analysed using the narG and napA, and the nirK, nirS and nosZ genes as molecular markers respectively. Addition of artificial root exudates (ARE) did not strongly affect the structure or the density of nitrate reduce…
