Abstract

The effects of cattle without and with biodynamic preparations on functional diversity of the soil microbial community were investigated in comparison with mineral fertilization (+ straw incorporation) at low and high application rates to a sandy soil of the long-term fertilization trial in Darmstadt, Germany. The multi-SIR method was used for investigating the respiratory response to 17 individual substrates in surface arable soils (0–5cm). Multivariate analysis made it possible to significantly separate mineral fertilizer and manure treatments, mainly on the basis of carbohydrates and amino acids. Correlation analysis of the extracted discriminant function showed that the changes in the catabolic profiles of soil microorganisms between the mineral fertilizer and manure treatments were partly caused by differences in soil pH and soil organic C content. The functional diversity of soil microorganisms caused by differences in the community level physiological profile decreased as a result of long-term mineral fertilization with straw incorporation in comparison with farmyard manure application.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Field experiments have shown that manure affects microbial community composition, soil enzyme activity, and catabolic substrate utilization profile more than ammonium nitrate or no fertilizer application.

    “In addition, field experiments have shown that manure affects microbial community composition (Peacock et al., 2001) soil enzyme activity (Liu et al., 2010) and catabolic substrate utilization profile (Sradnick et al., 2013) more than ammonium nitrate or no fertilizer application.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
