Abstract

The study was aimed to determine the effect of wheat straw incorporation and nitrogen (N) fertilization on soil fertility and enzyme activity, as well as sweetpoato yield and quality. Field experiment was conducted in the summer seasons of 2017 and 2018, and four treatments were set: zero straw +50 kg·ha−1N (S0N50), 50% straw return +50 kg ha−1N (S1N50), 100% straw return +50 kg·ha−1N (S2N50), 100% straw return+150 kg ha−1N (S2N150). The aboveground yield, storage roots yield and single root fresh weight increased with the increase of straw returning quantity(S2N50> S1N50> S0N50). The storage root yield ofS2N150in 2017 was higher than that ofS2N50,but lower than that ofS2N50in 2018. Two years of nitrogen/straw incorporation also increased the starch content of sweetpotato, but decreased the reducing sugar, soluble sugar and protein content. The available N, total N, available P, available K and organic matter content, as well as catalase, alkaline phosphorylase, urease and invertase activity in soil were enhanced by nitrogen/straw incorporation. The results indicated that the conjoint application of full amount of straw and appropriate amount of N had the best effect on increasing the yield and starch content of sweetpotato.
