Abstract
Crop straw incorporation has become a prevailing agricultural practice that guarantees the food production and security. There is a significant body of work on the effects of straw incorporation on the methane (CH4) emissions in paddy fields. However, it is unclear whether there are diverse links between CH4 emission dynamics and incorporations of different organic compound classes of straw to paddy fields. In this study, soil incubations were conducted to assess the respective effect of incorporations of hydrolysable amino acid (HAA), dilute-acid extractable carbohydrate (DAC), lipid and acid-insoluble organic matter (AIOM) fractions of rice straw on the CH4 emission in paddy soil. It is revealed that incorporations of HAA and DAC fractions exert the greatest intensities to stimulate the CH4 emissions, which mainly takes place in the early period of incubation; on contrary, the incorporation of lipid fraction exerts the lowest intensity and mainly takes place in the late period. The pattern of CH4 emission after incorporation of AIOM fraction occurs peaks both in the early and late periods of incubation. Our findings highlight that the time of occurrence and intensity of effects of rice straw incorporation on CH4 emissions vary significantly depending on the different organic compound classes of rice straw, which may be key to proposing a promising management strategy for mitigating CH4 emissions in paddy fields in the context of straw incorporation.
