Abstract: 【Objective】 A pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of long-term different fertilization treatments on N retention and supply in soils after the addition of straw and urea-N. 【Method】 Three soils (NF, no fertilizer; NPK, applied inorganic N, P, K fertilizer; and MNPK, combined application of manure and inorganic N, P, K) were sampled from a long-term different (19 years) fertilization experiments in Yangling, Shaanxi. And three rates of N fertilizer (0, 100 mg•kg-1 of urea-N, and 50 mg•kg-1 of urea-N + 50 mg•kg-1 of straw-N) were added into the three different fertilized soils to study N immobilization and supply during the wheat growth. 【Result】 Addition of N fertilizer had no effect on grain yield of wheat in the NF soil, while it significantly increased grain yield of wheat in NPK and MNPK soils. When only urea-N was added, the use efficiency of the added urea-N in the MNPK soils was as high as 67%, and it was significantly (P<0.05) higher than that in the NPK (56%) and NF soils (only 19%); And wheat yield of the MNPK soil was also significantly (P<0.05) higher than that of NPK and NF soils. Compared with only addition of urea-N, the combined addition of straw and urea-N significantly (P<0.05) decreased grain yield and N use efficiency. For the MNPK soil, the N use efficiency was only 11%, but it was still significantly higher than that of NPK soil (7%). After harvesting, 79-88% of added N in the treatment of combined addition of inorganic N and straw was not absorbed by wheat in the three soils. 【Conclusion】 It was concluded that the long-term application of manure and NPK fertilizers has a high ability to modulate the N supply of soil by adjusting the N retention and release processes, and increases grain yield and N use efficiency.
