Abstract
Based upon the review of the status of nitrogen use efficiency in salinized farmland in China, we summarized the effect of salinization on key processes of nitrogen transformation in farmland soil, analyzed the microbial mechanism underlying nitrogen transformation, and summed up the main ways for high efficient utilization of nitrogen in salinized farmland. Salinization had thre-shold effects on mineralization, nitrification, and denitrification of nitrogen from farmland soil, with the influence varying greatly in different scopes. Salinity and secondary barriers had different effects on microorganisms, with threshold in their effects. The most widely used methods for nitrogen synergism regulation in salinized farmland include soil conditioner, biomass material, growing salt-tole-rant plants, optimizing the ratio of different nitrogen forms, and biological inhibitor. We proposed current research shortcomings and future research directions of nitrogen cycle processes in salinized farmland. This study was of great significance for reducing nitrogen loss, enhancing utilization of nutrient from fertilizers, and controlling agricultural non-point source pollution in salinized farmland.
