Root activity regulates rhizosphere soil carbon (C) dynamics, thereby profoundly affecting soil C sequestration and associated climate feedback. However, whether and how rhizosphere soil organic C (SOC) sequestration responds to atmospheric N deposition remains unclear. We distinguished and quantified the direction and magnitude of soil C sequestration between the rhizosphere and bulk soil of a spruce (Picea asperata Mast.) plantation after 4-year field N additions. Moreover, the contribution of microbial necromass C to SOC accumulation under N addition was further compared between the two soil compartments, considering the crucial role of microbial necromass in soil C formation and stabilization. The results showed that although both the rhizosphere and bulk soil facilitated SOC accumulation in response to N addition, the rhizosphere exerted a greater C sequestration than that of bulk soil. Specifically, compared to the control, SOC content increased 15.03 mg/g and 4.22 mg/g in the rhizosphere and bulk soil under N addition, respectively. Further numerical model analysis showed that SOC pool in the rhizosphere increased by 33.39 % induced by N addition, which was nearly four times of that in the bulk soil (7.41 %). The contribution of increased microbial necromass C to SOC accumulation induced by N addition was significantly higher in the rhizosphere (38.76 %) than that in the bulk soil (31.31 %), which was directly related to the greater accumulation of fungal necromass C in the rhizosphere. Our findings highlighted the vital role of the rhizosphere processes in regulating soil C dynamics under elevating N deposition, and also provided a clear evidence for importance of the microbial-derived C in the SOC sequestration from the rhizosphere perspective.
根系活动调节根际土壤碳（C）动态，从而深刻影响土壤 C 固存和相关气候反馈。然而，根际土壤有机碳（SOC）固存是否以及如何响应大气氮（N）沉降仍不清楚。我们在云杉（Picea asperata Mast.）人工林进行了 4 年的田间 N 添加后，区分并量化了根际和非根际土壤中土壤 C 固存的方向和幅度。此外，考虑到微生物残体 C 在土壤 C 形成和稳定中的关键作用，我们进一步比较了两个土壤区室中 N 添加对 SOC 积累的微生物残体 C 的贡献。结果表明，尽管根际和非根际都有利于 SOC 积累对 N 添加的响应，但根际的 C 固存作用大于非根际。具体而言，与对照相比，N 添加下根际和非根际的 SOC 含量分别增加了 15.03mg/g 和 4.22mg/g。进一步的数值模型分析表明，N 添加引起的根际 SOC 库增加了 33.39%，几乎是非根际的四倍（7.41%）。N 添加引起的 SOC 积累中增加的微生物残体 C 的贡献在根际（38.76%）明显高于非根际（31.31%），这与根际真菌残体 C 的更大积累直接相关。我们的研究结果强调了根际过程在调节高氮沉降下土壤 C 动态中的重要作用，并从根际角度为 SOC 固存中微生物衍生 C 的重要性提供了明确的证据。
