[Rhizosphere effect of nutrients in different maize soils with different fertility levels].

Maize plants and soil samples were collected from Jilin Province to study the nutrient dynamics in soil-maize plant rhizosphere and their relationship with plant uptake. The results showed that NH4(+)-N and NO3(-)-N were accumulated in rhizospheric soil, and mainly controlled by the application of chemical fertilizers. Soil available P was depleted in high fertility fields, especially in high seedling density, while accumulated in low fertility fields. Soil available K was accumulated in rhizospheric soil, and its accumulation rate was higher in high fertility than in low fertility fields. The nutrient absorption amount was N approximately K > P for maize plant shoots and roots, but was N > K > P for seeds. The contribution rate of chemical fertilizers to maize yield was only 1/5-1/3 in Jilin Province, and the rest was contributed by the application of organic manure, such as chicken feces or cow feces, and by the mineralization of soil organic matter.
