Mineralization of carbon and nitrogen from cowpea leaves decomposing in soils with different levels of microbial biomass

Soils with greater levels of microbial biomass may be able to release nutrients more rapidly from applied plant material. We tested the hypothesis that the indigenous soil microbial biomass affects the rate of decomposition of added green manure. Cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.] leaves were add...
