Allelopathy—An update
TL;DR: There has been a rapid advance in knowledge of mechanisms of action of known allelopathic compounds, at increasingly more fundamental levels, and evidence is mounting that inhibition of nitrification increases as succession progresses toward the climax vegetation, at least in many vegetation types.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibition of nitrification by climax ecosystems
Elroy L. Rice,Sunil K. Pancholy +1 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that the nitrifiers are inhibited in the climax so that ammonium nitrogen is not oxidized to nitrate as readily inThe climax as in the successional stages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibition of nitrification by climax ecosystems. ii. additional evidence and possible role of tannins
Elroy L. Rice,Sunil K. Pancholy +1 more
TL;DR: It appears that the tannins and tannin derivatives may play a continuous and rather prominent role in the inhibition of nitrification by vegetation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soil Enzymes in Relation to Old Field Succession: Amylase, Cellulase, Invertase, Dehydrogenase, and Urease1
Sunil K. Pancholy,Elroy L. Rice +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the activities of amylase, cellulase, invertase, dehydrogenase, and urease in soil were determined every other month for a year in two old-field successional stages and a climax stand in each of three vegetation types; tall grass prairie, post oak-blackjack oak forest and oak-pine forest.
