8 HUMIC ACID Higher molecular weight O.M. Has ability to form hydrogen bonds... thus precipitating at low ph Few carbohydrate residues Highly condensed and aromatic High C, low O in comparison to F.A.

11 FACTORS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CHEMICAL STABILITY OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS IN SOIL ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS 1. Waterlogging. Desiccation 3. Low temperatures 4. Presence of toxic factors 4. High salt content 5. Unfavorable ph 6. Absence of microbial growth factors and of decomposers CHEMICAL FACTORS 1. Large molecular size of humic material. Disorderly condensation 3. Copolymerization with extensive cross-linkages 4. Smooth globular shape of humic material 5. Readily inactivates enzymes 6. The fact it is nondiffusable

14 ENZYMATIC OXIDATIVE COUPLING REACTIONS Oxidative coupling is defined as a process by which phenolic or aromatic amines are linked together after oxidation by an enzyme or a suitable chemical reagent. Coupling produces C-C C,C-O,C-N,or N-N N bonds. Important in the synthesis of humic substances and other biological materials ( Lignins, tannins, alkaloids, antibiotics ) Responsible for the incorporation of many agricultural and industrial chemicals into soil organic matter. Information is lacking on this subject because of the difficulty of obtaining enzymes of sufficient purity and the complexity of the products of oxidative coupling.

17 DESCRIPTION OF ENZYMES INVOLVED Metal containing enzymes classified as either Monophenol Monooxygenases (EC ) or Perioxidases (EC ) Monophenol Monoxygenases (Laccases, Tyrosinases) Both enzymes contain copper, require molecular oxygen for activity, and do not require coenzymes. Laccases Produce free radical intermediates Are glycoproteins Have a relatively limited substrate range Tyrosinases Catalyze two types of reactions Cresolase activity Perioxidases Catecholase activity Do not produce free radical intermediates Contain iron, require H O for activity, often yield the same coupling products as laccases from phenolic substrates, and produce free radical intermediates.

19 Characteristics that Differentiate Laccase, Tyrosinase, and Peroxidase Characteristic Laccase Tryosinase Peroxidase Presence of Cu Presence of Fe Inhibition by CO Occurrence of hydroxylation reaction Absorption spectra peaks at 80 nm at 615 nm (+) a a H O requirement a For spectra of peroxidases see Saunders et al. (1964)
20 TWO THEORIES OF HUMUS FORMATION MODIFIED LIGNIN THEORY Humus is basically lignin material which has been slightly modified to form lignin - protein complexes resistant to microbial attack. ( Waksman) lignin - protein complex microbes POLYPHENOL THEORY Decomposition of all plant components including lignin to simple monomers occurs. Polymerization of active monomers into high molecular weight dark colored complexes follows. microbes polymerization
21 SEQUENCE OF REACTIONS IN HUMUS FORMATION FROM CARBYDRATES Freeing of carbohycrates, breakdown to monomers Opening of ring form of sugar Addition of an amino group to the carbonyl C of the sugar Rearrangement of the molecule to form a N - substituted keto derivative N Dehydration and fragmentation to yield unsaturated intermediates Polymerization of intermediates to form brown-colored complexes
22 SEQUENCE OF REACTIONS IN HUMUS FORMATION FROM LIGNIN Lignin is freed from plant residues during decomposition Freed Lignin is broken down into primary structural units The primary units are oxidized and demethylated and the polyphenols are again oxidized to quinones Quinones polymerize with N compounds to form dark colored complexes N N
23 Principal steps in the formation of humic substances from lignin and products of microbial synthesis formed by the condensation of amino acids with polyphenols (upper and middle) and sugars, through Maillard reaction (lower).
24 MICROBIAL METABOLISM OF PHENOLICS ( vol. 1, chapter 1, Soil Biochemistry ) OXYDASES Transfer electrons to O to form H O or H O without intervention of electron transport chain. "Monooxygenases" - one oxygen atom introduced to the ring "Dioxygenase" - two oxygen atoms are introduced and the ring is broken MONOOXYGENASE REACTION R + O + H X R H X is a reduced cofactor + H O + X DIOXYGENASE REACTION + O CO CO

30 CHANGES IN SOIL ORGANIC CARBON Decrease in organic C physically protected in soil. Decreases in organic C range from 0-50% of initial amount. Steady state is not reached even after long time periods. Biological decomposition is the major factor for organic C loss. Erosion may also be important. When soil erodes, much more organic matter is lost (percent-wise) than mineral soil. Erosion % % Organic Matter Mineral soil

38 Carbon Sequestration Summary The use of cover crops, adequate N fertilization, crop residues left in the field, and erosion control clearly can lead to sequestering of C in the soil, especially where it has been depleted due to intensive cultivation or previous erosion. No-tillage is best able to incorporate almost all of the above actions into a single cropping system. Time scales of 0 to 50 years seem to be required before major amounts of C sequestration and accumulation is achieved. C sequestration brought about by NT practice is not very stable and will be rapidly mineralized if tillage is applied. Periodic tillage followed by NT may stabilize organic C levels in soil, but will probably not result in a net increase.
39 BENEFITS OF NO-TILL Higher grain yield Protects soil from erosion by wind and rain Improves water quality Conserves water equipment Adds organic wear matter to soil Reduces labor, fuel, and equipment wear Provides habitat for wildlife Reduces release of carbon gases Biological life is increased ( earthworms and microbial population ) (earthworms and microbial population)
