[Effects of water-nitrogen interactions on NH3 and N2O emissions and yield in winter wheat cropland]. / 水氮互作对冬小麦农田NH3和N2O排放及产量的影响.

To investigate the effects of different irrigation and nitrogen application modes on nitrogen gaseous loss in winter wheat farmland, we conducted a field experiment at Changqing Irrigation Experiment Station in Shandong Province, with two irrigation levels (80%-90% θf(I1) and 70%-80% θf(I2)) and three nitrogen application levels (conventional nitrogen application of 240 kg·hm-2(N1), nitrogen reduction of 12.5% (N2), and nitrogen reduction of 25% (N3)). The results showed that ammonia volatilization and nitrous oxide emission rate peak appeared within 2-4 days after fertilization or irrigation. The ammonia volatilization rate during the chasing fertilizer period was significantly higher than that during the basal fertilizer period. Compared with other treatments, the ave-rage ammonia volatilization rate of I2N2 treatment during the chasing fertilizer period was reduced by 10.1%-51.6%, and the average nitrous oxide emission rate over the whole growth period was reduced by 15.4%-52.2%. The ammonia volatilization rate was significantly positively associated with surface soil pH value and ammonium nitrogen content, while the nitrous oxide emission rate was significantly positively associated with nitrate content in topsoil. The accumulation amount of soil ammonia volatilization and nitrous oxide emission ranged from 0.83-1.42 and 0.11-0.33 kg·hm-2, respectively. Moderate reduction of irrigation water and nitrogen input could effectively reduce cumulative amounts of ammonia volatilization and nitrous oxide emission from winter wheat farmland. The cumulative amounts of ammonia volatilization and nitrous oxide emission under I1N3 and I2N2 treatments were signi-ficantly lower than those under other treatments. The highest winter wheat yield (5615.6 kg·hm-2) appeared in I2N2 treatment. The irrigation water utilization efficiency of I2 was significantly higher than that of I1, with the maximum increase rate of 45.2%. Compared with N1 and N3 treatments, the maximum increase rate of nitrogen fertilizer productivity and agricultural utilization efficiency in N2 reached 15.2% and 31.8%, respectively. In conclusion, the treatment with 70%-80% θf irrigation level and 210 kg·hm-2 nitrogen input could effectively improve the utilization efficiency of irrigation water and nitrogen fertilization and reduce gaseous loss from winter wheat farmland.

The ecological clusters of soil organisms drive the ecosystem multifunctionality under long-term fertilization.

Long-term fertilization is known to impact the biodiversity and community structures of soil organisms, which are responsible for multiple soil ecosystem functions (multifunctionality). However the relationship between the alterations of soil organisms and ecosystem multifunctionality remains unclear, especially in the case of long-term fertilization. To explore the contribution of soil organismal biodiversity and community structures to ecosystem multifunctionality, we took soil samples from a nearly 25-year field fertilization experiment. Organic matter significantly improved the soil ecosystem multifunctionality. Ecosystem multifunctionality was found to be closely linked to the biodiversity and communities of soil organisms within the major ecological clustering of soil organisms (Module 1) according to the trophic co-occurrence network, rather than the entire community of soil organisms. This indicated that ecological clusters of soil organisms within the network were critical in maintaining soil ecosystem multifunctionality. The application of organic fertilization could enrich specialized soil organisms and increase interactions of soil organisms in the ecological cluster. As a result, our findings emphasize the role of ecological clusters in the soil organismal co-occurrence network in controlling soil multifunctionality after long-term fertilization, presenting a novel perspective on the link between soil biodiversity and ecosystem multifunctionality.

The continuous innovation of hand surgery team rooted in clinical practice / 复旦学报（医学版）

Previously,hand-surgeons made great advancements and pioneering surgeries such as thumb reconstruction,flap transplantation surgery.Under the leadership of professor Yu-dong GU,we put forward several surgical strategies to treat the brachial plexus injury including the widely-used contralateral cervical 7 (CC7) nerve root transfer surgery.Now our department is one of the leading centers in treating peripheral nerve injury disease worldwide.During the past 10 years,we focused on the brain plasticity research in brachial plexus injury patients and revealed the reorganization pattern of sensorimotor cortex after the CC7 nerve root transfer surgery.Our study indicated the potential of one hemisphere in controlling bilateral upper limb and we further applied this conclusion in treating hemiplegic paralysis patients.In the past 10 years,we applied basic research findings in clinical practice and expanded the indication of CC7 nerve transfer surgery.By making innovations we keep making progress.
