Molecular insight into soil carbon turnover. | LitMetric

Molecular insight into soil carbon turnover.

Rapid Commun Mass Spectrom

Max-Planck-Institut für Biogeochemie, Jena, Germany.

Published: July 1999

Curie-point pyrolysis-gas chromatography coupled on-line to mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) and isotope ratio mass spectrometry (Py-GC/IRMS) were used to determine the individual turnover rate of specific carbohydrates, lignin, lipids and N-containing compounds from French arable soils. The analysed soils were cultivated, either continuously with a C3 plant (wheat delta(13)C-value = -25.2 per thousand), or transferred to a C4 plant (maize delta(13)C-value = -11.4 per thousand) cropping 23 years ago. Most pyrolysis products identified were related to carbohydrates (furans), lipids (hydrocarbons and derivatives of benzene), proteins (nitriles and pyrrole) and lignins (phenols). The relative yield of all individual pyrolysis products was similar in the samples from the maize and control wheat soil. The isotopic enrichment between identical pyrolysis products from the two soils varied from 1 to 12 delta (delta) units, indicating that after 23 years of cultivation 7 to 90% of their C was derived from maize. This suggests a slow mean turnover time varying from 9 to 220 years. Based on the differences in isotopic enrichment of chemical structures after vegetation change the pyrolysis products could be divided into three groups: (i) pyrolysis products with a nearly complete C4 signal, e. g. phenol, derived from lignin degradation products, (ii) pyrolysis products with an intermediate isotopic enrichment of 6-8 per thousand, most likely to be a composite of remaining (possibly physically protected) fragments derived from both maize and native wheat, and (iii) pyrolysis products showing only low enrichments in (13)C of 1-3 per thousand. Most of their precursors were found to be proteinaceaous materials. This indicates that proteins or peptides are indeed preserved during decomposition and humification processes occurring in the soil. Our study highlights the potential of Py-GC/MS-C-IRMS to further novel insights into the dynamics of soil organic constituents. Copyright 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
