Increase the activity of nitrifying bacteria in thesoil. C. Increase the activity of denitrifying bacteria in thesoil. D. Decrease the activity of ammonifying bacteria in thesoil. E. Both C and D
I know that C and D would decrease the nitrogen availabilityfor the root, but I'm not sure if they decrease it equally. Cansomeone tell me the relative impacts of denitrifying bacteria andammonyfying bacteria? A. Increase the activity of nitrogen-fixing bacteria in thesoil. B. Increase the activity of nitrifying bacteria in thesoil. C. Increase the activity of denitrifying bacteria in thesoil. D. Decrease the activity of ammonifying bacteria in thesoil. E. Both C and D
I know that C and D would decrease the nitrogen availabilityfor the root, but I'm not sure if they decrease it equally. Cansomeone tell me the relative impacts of denitrifying bacteria andammonyfying bacteria?
