The effects of fertilization on soil denitrifying microorganisms are well-documented. However, the impact of global warming on these microorganisms, particularly regarding the interaction with fertilization, remains poorly understood. Here, a 4-year field warming experiment that included experimental warming (ET) and ambient temperature control (AC), with nitrogen (N) fertilizer applied (CF) or without N fertilizer (CK), was employed to assess the response of the abundance and community of nirK-, nirS- and nosZ- type denitrifiers to warming and fertilization in paddies, and to understand their relationship with potential denitrification rate (PDR).

Introduction: This study aimed to assess the influence of experimental warming and fertilization on rice yield and paddy methane emissions.
Methods: A free-air temperature increase system was used for the experimental warming treatment (ET), while the control treatment used ambient temperature (AC). Each treatment contained two fertilization strategies, (i) normal fertilization with N, P and K fertilizers (CN) and (ii) without N fertilizer input (CK).
Farmland is the important soil carbon pool of terrestrial ecosystems and organic nutrient pool for crop growth. To clarify the impact of climate warming on the soil carbon pool, this study analyzed the effects of warming and fertilization on soil organic carbon and its labile components under rice-wheat rotation using a free-air temperature increase system. The variation in soil carbon pool management index (CPMI) was also evaluated.
