摘要: Soil multifunctionality is the consequence of biotic interactions that drive decomposition, nutrient cycling and net primary production. Energy flux describes the energy consumed and transferred among multitrophic groups in the soil food web, which are logically linked to multifunctionality. In a subtropical agroecosystem with an annual sweet potato-oilseed rape rotation, we explored how biochar and synthetic fertilizer jointly affected agroecosystem multifunctionality (e.g., crop production, soil carbon storage and nutrient cycling) and the en-ergetic structure of the nematode food web during two consecutive years. Results showed that biochar increased soil multifunctionality by 37-110% mainly by promoting a uniform energy flow through the soil nematode food web, which was largely due to increased energy fluxes of fungivores and omnivores-carnivores at the expense of decreased energy flux through herbivores. Applying a lower rate of synthetic fertilizer led to non-uniform energy flow in the soil nematode food web, suggesting that nitrogen limitation could offset the stimulatory effect of biochar on soil multifunctionality. This was because biochar induced oligotrophic conditions (a stoichiometry-induced nitrogen limitation), effectively warranting that continuous biochar application would aggravate nutrient limitations to crops, especially when low rates of synthetic fertilizer are applied. Notably, soil nutrient impoverishment could lead to resource reallocation from aboveground shoot to belowground root production, thereby fueling the energy flow through the herbivore channel. Our findings highlight the importance of balancing biochar and synthetic fertilizer applications to sustain a stable energetic structure in soil nematode food webs, which are associated with greater crop production and soil health in subtropical region.
