transformation was used, which yielded good separation of accessions and near normal distributed residuals. A variance decomposition of the transformed lesion data were conducted using the lme4 package ( Bates et al., 2015 ) in R ( R Core Team, 2017 ). Based on
determine the number of years necessary for stable rankings, we decided to more fully analyze the response of the standards and better quantify the components of disease resistance beyond simply plant genotype. We applied variance decomposition methods to
C:N ratio and decomposition rates of cover crops can have important effects on weed–crop competition. The central objectives of this study were to examine the: 1) effects of spring-sown buckwheat, brown mustard ( Brassica juncea L.), yellow mustard

stockpile of moss peat harvested from three Alberta, Canada, mires, for a total of 465 samples. These samples were analyzed for degree of decomposition according to the von Post (1937) scale (later modified by Puustjarvi and Robertson, 1975 ) and species
that was ≈410,000 kg·ha −1 or one-third of soil weight. However, despite the initial N immobilization when almond wood chips were first added to the soil, as the wood chips fully decomposed, they eventually returned nutrients to the soil. Sanborn
different decomposition and N mineralization amounts; and 3) different tree growth and crop yield patterns among the GMSs—interacting with the soil and hydraulic processes described in the first two hypotheses—would lead to different optimal N budgets for
nutrients, which impacts their bioavailability ( Chantigny, 2003 ). Compost application to soils often induces increases in soil organic matter and DOC for years ( Chantigny et al., 2002 ; Chantigny, 2003 ), however, if wastes are rapidly decomposed in

improving conditions for microbial populations. However, the efficacy of these products have been inconsistent for reducing thatch in turfgrass ( Lancaster et al., 1977 ; McCarty et al., 2005 ; Murdoch and Barr, 1976 ) The rate of microbial decomposition
