Abstract: The response of soil microorganisms to soil changes is extremely sensitive, and the impact of straw returning on soil microbial community is important for the soil nitrogen cycling maintainance in paddy field systems. Straw incorporation to soils influences the biochemical transformation of soil nitrogen by changing the soil microecological environment. The nitrogen management strategy in rice production is closely related to these changes in soil nitrogen transformation. Based on the latest published research papers, this study reviewed the soil nitrogen transformation processes, the functions of related functional microbes, and the driving mechanisms of the key functional genes in paddy field soil with straw incorporation. It would help to understand the microbial mechanism of soil nitrogen cycling in paddy field soils with straw incorporation, and provide theoretical basis for the scientific application of nitrogen fertilizer in paddy field systems.

Key words: straw returning, paddy field, nitrogen cycle, soil microorganisms, functional genes
