Effects of Monoculture, Crop Rotation, and Soil Moisture Content on Selected Soil Physicochemical and Microbial Parameters in Wheat Fields

Figure 8

Differences in microbial numbers on a logarithmic scale and soil moisture content of plots subjected to rotation and monoculture during the study period. (a) Nonfilamentous hymenomycetes, (b) filamentous hymenomycetes, (c) actinomycetes, (d) protozoa, (e) filamentous growth, (f) Mucorales, (g) heterotrophic growth, and (h) percentage of soil moisture on day of sampling. Monoculture = M -♦-; rotation = R -•-. Vertical bars denote standard deviation.
