new stems (2006 stems and leaves) and old stems (2005 and 2004 stems) were determined. All data were tested for homogeneity of variance using Levene's test and for normality using the Shapiro-Wilk W test. Biomass and composition data were analyzed

Soil water content has an important impact on many fundamental biophysical processes. It affects the germination of seeds, plant growth and nutrition, microbial decomposition of the soil organic matter, nutrient transformations in the root zone, as

decomposition, the origin of the material, and the particle size or surface area ( Ahmad et al., 2001 ; Aslam et al., 2013 ; Benoit et al., 2008 ; Dao, 1991 ). There have been few studies focusing on sorption of preemergence herbicides used in ornamentals

measured using three methods: graph paper, image, and weight. The three mulch area measurement methods were then compared for accuracy, and the weight method was then used to compare treatments. Mixed model analysis of variance (version 9.4; SAS Institute

microbial immobilization, and wood substrate stability (decomposition) over time have been major concerns of researchers and growers ( Boyer et al., 2012 ; Jackson et al., 2008b , 2009). Wright and Browder (2005) demonstrated ‘Inca Gold’ marigold could be
