Harsh summer conditions caused structural and specific functional changes of microbial communities in an arable soil.
Eur. J. Soil Sci. 58, 736-745 (2007)
The mineralization of the herbicide 3-(4-isopropylphenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea (isoproturon) was reduced after the dry and hot summer 2003 in a soil profile placed in a field lysimeter. A different isoproturon mineralization pattern remained in soil material taken at two different soil depths (0–5 cm and 15–20 cm), although soil material was re-equilibrated at adequate climatic conditions. Special soil microcosms were designed to determine if the changes in this special soil function ‘isoproturon mineralization’ were related to the climatic scenario of summer 2003. These microcosms were filled with lysimeter soil from the 15–20 cm depth and the temperature and dryness of summer 2003 were simulated. Afterwards, soil samples were taken from the microcosms and re-equilibrated under controlled conditions for 4 weeks. Subsequently, isoproturon mineralization was investigated. The soil microbial community reduced drastically its original capability of isoproturon mineralization in the course of the model experiments.
