[Stabilization Characteristics of Exogenous Cd in Different Types of Soil].

To clarify the characteristics of stabilization and availability of exogenous cadmium (Cd) in different types of soils, six main agricultural soils in Sichuan province, including acidic purple soil, neutral purple soil, calcareous purple soil, gray fluvo-aquic soil, typical yellow soil, and rinsed yellow soil, were used in this study. A soil culture experiment was conducted to explore the differences in stabilization time, chemical form, and effective Cd content between the six types of soils. Additionally, the effects of exogenous Cd on the growth and Cd accumulation of cabbage growing in different soils was discussed. The results showed the following: 1 with exogenous Cd treatment, the available Cd content of the six soils decreased sharply within 15 d after Cd addition and then tended to be flat. After 30 d, there was no significant difference. The available Cd contents of rinsed yellow soil and acidic purple soil were significantly higher than that of the other four soils, and the content of calcareous purple soil was significantly lower (1.01 mg·kg ^-1 ). 2 After stabilization, exchangeable Cd was the main Cd form in the six soils, up to 42.51%-56.07%. The relative proportions of other Cd forms differed greatly between different soils. The proportion of iron and manganese oxides in the rinsed yellow soil and typical yellow soil was higher, whereas organic complex Cd, residual Cd, and carbonate-bound Cd were higher in the gray fluvo-aquic soil, neutral purple soil, and calcareous purple soil, respectively. 3 The characteristics of availability and bioavailability of Cd among different soils were significantly different with different exogenous Cd doses. With the lowest Cd dose (0.5 mg·kg ^-1 ), compared with that in the control, there was no significant decrease in Cd content in the edible parts of the cabbage, but Cd accumulation in the edible parts differed. The Cd contents of edible parts of the cabbage growing in typical yellow soil and rinsed yellow soil were significantly higher than that of the other soils. With the highest Cd dose (2.0 mg·kg ^-1 ), the growths of cabbage growing in all six soils were significantly inhibited. The available Cd contents of rinsed yellow soil and acidic purple soil were significantly higher than that of the other four soils, which is consistent with the Cd content in the edible parts of the cabbage. The available Cd contents and the Cd content in the edible parts of the cabbage in calcareous purple soil were the lowest, and acidic soils, especially in rinsed yellow soil, had the highest.
