- Intervention effect Treatments did not change soybean root and shoot biomass.
- Intervention effect Ammonium raised sorghum shoot biomass 1.30 times over control.
- Intervention effect Manure raised sorghum shoot biomass 1.40 times over control.
- Intervention effect Ammonium sulfate decreased the nitrate gradient toward sorghum roots.
- Intervention effect Manure increased sorghum shoot N content 1.57 times over control.
- Association Sorghum shoot N increase was negatively correlated with root-compartment soil amino acids.
- Intervention effect Manure was reported to induce TAA depletion in the sorghum rhizosphere.
- Intervention effect Manure increased microbial activity and diversity in the sorghum rhizosphere.
- Observation Microbial consumption of three amino acids was higher near sorghum roots.
- Observation Authors infer sorghum may have high amino-acid uptake capacity after organic matter application.
