摘要：

The effects of middle term (7 years) consistent tillage practices on the catalase (CAT), urease (URE) and invertase (INV) activities were investigated during the whole winter wheat growing period on a loess soil in Luoyang (east edge of the Chinese Loess Plateau, Henan province, China). Field plots, set up in 1999, included following tillage practices: subsoiling with mulch (SS), no-till with mulch (NT), reduced tillage (RT), and a conventional control (CT). A clear redistribution of soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (TN) was found along the slope in RT and CT, however, no difference was observed between studied enzyme activities along different slope positions. SS had higher winter wheat yield than other treatments, which was attributed to the increased soil water content and improvement of soil fertility. Changes in soil temperature and soil moisture content influenced the magnitude of the enzyme activities, but not the ranking of the different treatments during most of the season. SS consistently had higher enzyme activities compared to other treatments. This indicated that seasonal fluctuations did not obscure effects associated with soil tillage practices and enzyme activities could reflect the effects of conversion of soil tillage practices on soil quality. Time within the growing season had a clear impact upon the enzyme activities. Comparatively higher enzyme activities were observed in the stages with vigorous vegetative growth of winter wheat than in stages with productive growth. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
