Abstract

Abstract The soil microbial biomass is considered to be a small but labile pool of plant nutrients (JENKINSON and LADD 1981). In previous studies the chloroform-fumigation method (JENKINSON and POWLSON 1976b) was modified to estimate the nitrogen (N) content in the microbial biomass in submerged soils (INUBUSHI et al. 1984b, 1985) and used to follow N-transformations in paddy fields (INUBUSHI and WATANABE 1986; WATANABE and INUBUSHI 1986).
