Spectroscopic properties of humic acids isolated from the rhizosphere and bulk soil compartments and fractionated by size-exclusion chromatography
چکیده انگلیسی

The humic acids (HAs) isolated by conventional procedure from rhizosphere (r) and bulk (c) soils were analyzed by means of chemical and physico-chemical techniques. Two different crops were selected, tomato (T) and artichoke (A), and each HA was fractionated by size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) into three fractions with increasing molecular size, respectively, Fraction I (FrI) < Fraction II (FrII) < Fraction III (FrIII). Elemental analysis data indicated greater N and S contents in the rhizosphere T-HAs, with respect to rhizosphere A-HA, which suggests the occurrence in the former ones of a large amount of organic nitrogen- and sulfur-containing compounds that are released by the rhizodeposition processes. Further, the three HA fractions from the bulk soils of the two series showed a gradual increase of C, H, and N contents, and a decrease of O and S contents and C/N and C/H ratios. These results suggested that the lowest molecular size fractions are richer in oxygenated functional groups, whereas the higher molecular size fractions are richer in N-containing groups and structural C- and H-containing units. The three HA fractions from the rhizosphere soils of the two series showed a gradual decrease in C content, and an increase of H, N, and O contents, which suggests the possible incorporation into soil HAs of a multitude of C-containing compounds of low molecular size released by plant roots. The FT-IR data, in general, suggested that the contents of carboxylic, phenolic and N-containing groups and polysaccharide-like components in HAs from rhizosphere soils are larger than those of HAs from the corresponding bulk soils. Further, the FrI fraction consisted mainly of simple structural units, likely quinonic and phenolic units with a prevalent aromatic character, whereas the FrII and, especially, FrIII fractions featured a mixed aliphatic/aromatic nature and a greater molecular complexity. The extent of these differences appeared to depend on the plant species and age, and is mainly due to the partial incorporation into rhizosphere HAs of typical root exudate components, such as amino acids, amides, aliphatic and aromatic acids of low molecular size, polysaccharides and sugars, fatty acids and sterols, and enzymes.
