Impacts of organic manure and inorganic fertilizer on total organic carbon (CT), water-soluble organic C (CWS), microbial biomass C (CMB), particulate organic C (CP), labile organic C (CL), C storage and sequestration, and C management index (CMI) in surface soil (0-20 cm) were investigated in a 20-yr field experiment under a greenhouse vegetable system in northeast China. The treatments included unfertilized control (CK), N fertilizer (N), balanced NPK fertilizer (NPK), organic manure alone (M) and the NPK fertilizer combined with the manure (MNPK). Under the treatments of N and NPK, CT content and C storage were not significantly changed over the experimental period, while CWS, CMB, CP, CL concentrations and CMI were significantly increased compared with the unfertilized control. In comparison with the control, the manure treatments, M and MNPK, significantly increased CT content and C storage, sequestrating organic C of 8.9 and 9.2 Mg/ha, respectively. The M and MNPK treatments showed higher CWS, CMB, CP and CL concentrations and CMI than the other three treatments. Pearson's correlation coefficients were used to show that CWS, CMB, CP, CL and CMI could be useful indicators for assessing soil quality and total C changes. The M treatment is effective in sequestrating soil C, but resulted in lower crop yield compared with the NPK treatment. The MNPK treatment showed the greatest increases in crop yield and C sequestration in the greenhouse vegetable system.
