The positive effects of the ORG treatments were attributed to the liming effect and carbon and nitrogen contributions of the compost. Urease and β-glucosidase activities correlated strongly. Activities of both enzymes correlated significantly and positively with carbon, NO3− and pH, with urease correlated more strongly than β-glucosidase. Only urease correlated with root density. Organic orchard floor management practices may be more effective than CON practices in promoting microbial enzyme activities in the 0–30 cm soil depth intervals of Western Cape apple orchard soils.]]> Fri 12 Jul 2024 06:52:52 SAST ]]> Relationship between soil alteration index three (AI3), soil organic matter and tree performance in a 'Cripps Pink/'M7 apple orchard https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:74180 Fri 12 Jul 2024 06:45:39 SAST ]]> Effect of conventional and organic orchard floor management practices on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in a ‘Cripp’s Pink’/M7 apple orchard soil https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:74178 Fri 12 Jul 2024 06:13:34 SAST ]]>
