Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Mean weight diameter ranged from 0.31 to 1.19 mm.
- Association Previous soil management affected structural stability.
- Intervention effect Tillage strongly affected structural stability despite permanent vegetation and high soil organic carbon.
- Association Soil components and root traits contributed equally to soil structural stability.
- Association Root mean diameter and root mass density were positively correlated with mean weight diameter.
- Association Specific root length was negatively correlated with mean weight diameter.
- Association Root traits were interpreted as major explanations of aggregate stability in tilled vineyards.
- Association Legumes appeared more effective for increasing aggregate stability.
