Popis: | Buried canola straw underwent 1.6 to 2 times as much decomposition as straw on the soil surface. Decomposition of Brassica napus L. was slightly less than that of B. rapa L. and cultivar effects were small in one year and insignificant in the other. Because treatment effects varied between stems and roots, plant portion likely should be considered in decomposition studies. Key words: canola, straw decomposition, burial, cultivars |
