Abstract
Soddy-podzolic soils developed on different loamy parent materials possess several common fabric features which can be regarded as characteristic of this soil type. These features are: poor aggregation, considerable amounts of coarse plant residues in different (mainly weak and medium) stages of decomposition, predominance of brown-coloured peptized humus mainly bound up with sesquioxides, abundant clayey and silty illuviation cutans appearing in the A 2 or A 2 horizons where they show the strongest disruption and incorporation into the s-matrix, and different forms of biological segregations of iron and manganese hydroxides. Some differences in fabric of these soils are connected with mineralogical and physical properties of parent material.
