Abstract

Low availability of some nutrients is one of the major factors for the widespread occurrence of plant nutrient deficiency in calcareous soils. Therefore, any strategy for solution of this problem is important. This study aimed to evaluate the elemental Sulfur (So) effect along with Thiobacillus bacteria on some chemical properties of soil (pH, EC, P, S-SO4, Fe and Zn) and nutrients uptake by maize (Single Cross 704). For this purpose, an experiment was carried out in four sites (Chogha Narges, Mahidasht, Najaf Abad and Ghomsheh) with different levels of available Sulfur (7, 13, 18, 27 mg kg-1soil) in Kermanshah Province. Sulfur was applied at 0, 250, 500, and 1000 kg ha-1 as So and Thiobacillus neapolitanous inoculation using randomized complete block design with three replications in a during cropping season 2015-2016. Soil samples at 6-7 leaf, silking and post harvesting stage from each treatment plot was collected for determining pH, EC, P, S-SO4, Fe and Zn. The result showed that So significantly decreased the soil pH and adversely, increased EC, P, S-SO4, soil DTPA-extractable Fe, and Zn in the Chogha Narges, Mahidasht (p<0. 01) and in Najaf Abad and Ghomsheh (p<0. 05) at 6-7 leaves, silking and post harvesting stage compared with the control. The lowest pH and highest EC, P, S-SO4, Fe and Zn value was observed with 1000 kg ha-1 So at silking stage. Soil pH of Chogha Narges, Mahidasht, Najaf Abad and Ghomsheh, respectively 0. 62, 0. 6, 0. 33, 0. 24 decreased compared with the control. In contrast, soil EC 1. 01, 0. 91, 0. 69 and 0. 7 dS m-1, respectively was enhanced. P also in levels of 2. 4, 3. 7, 1. 5 and 1, available Sulfur 18, 16, 15. 7 and 24, Fe 1. 4, 1. 48, 1. 3 and 0. 9, Zn 0. 51, 0. 57, 0. 34 and 0. 18 mg kg-1soil increased compared with control. After harvesting due to the reduced amount of Sulfur oxidation and buffering capacity of soil, pH and nutrients gradually returned to its initial state. However, N, P, S-SO4, Fe and Zn uptake by maize was significantly increased with the application of So compared with the control. The highest nutrients uptake was observed with 1000 kg ha-1 So along with Thiobacillus bacteria.
