Irrigation has a higher impact on soil bacterial abundance, diversity and composition than nitrogen fertilization

Abstract The aim of this study was to assess the effects of irrigation frequency and nitrogen fertilization rate on the abundance, diversity, and composition of soil bacteria in winter wheat. Irrigation, but not nitrogen fertilization, significantly affected the bacterial alpha diversity index. Amon...
