- Abstract
The article presents a study regarding the effects of six herbicides and three fumigants on microbial activities in a sandy loam soil. The study uses ammonification, nitrification, denitrification, and sulfur oxidation as well as a Varian model 3700 gas chromatograph equipped with a thermal conductivity detector and a Varian model 9176 recorder. Results show the influence of soil aeration, moisture, organic matter, acidity and temperature on microbial denitrification.
