Some Carbohydrate Fractions of a Gray Wooded Soil as Influenced by Cropping Systems and Fertilizers

Abstract: A study was made to determine the long-term effect of two cropping systems and various fertilizer treatments on organic carbon, nitrogen and some of the carbohydrate constituents in Breton plot soils.Organic carbon, nitrogen, hexose, pentose, uronic acid, hexosamine and hexosamine-N contents were significanrly grearer in soils from plots in a 6ve-year rotation of grains and legumes than in a wheat-fallow sequence.

“…Some workers have observed differences in the proportion of soil N present as alpha-amino acid l{ and in the relative distribution of amino acids in soils under different cultural and chemical treatments (Stevenson 1956;Porter et aI., 1964;Gupta and Reuszer,1967). In other studies, no differences in the relativs amounts of the acid-soluble N, amino acid N, ammonium N and amino sugar N were noted in soils having dilTerent cropping histories and treated with difierent kinds of organic materials r (Young and Mortensen, 1958;Sowden, 1968 (Toogood and Lynch, 1959) and < 3% organic maIIer (Khan, 1969). These plots were established in 1930 by the University of Alberta, and a complete history has been reported elsewhere (Toogood et aL, 1962).…”

“…These plots were established in 1930 by the University of Alberta, and a complete history has been reported elsewhere (Toogood et aL, 1962). Surface Ap horizons from plots 1 to 6 and 8 in the flve-year rotation of grains and legumes (wheatoats-barley-legume-legume) and the wheat-fallow sequence were collected in May, L969, in the manner described in a previous publication (Khan, 1969 (Toogood et aL.,1962).…”

“…The higher levels of soil organic C in the five-year WOBHH rotation are reflected in higher levels of soil carbohydrates and humic acids compared to the WF rotation. 13,14,4 Carbohydrates and humic acids are the more active and reactive components of soil organic carbon. Higher levels of these forms of C may enhance soil nutrient cycling, microbial biomass, and soil aggregate formation and stability.…”
